They were even ahead for eight giddy minutes. Vidic and Ferdinand were immense; one last performance for the road before this great centre-back pairing go their separate ways in the summer.
The truth is that Bayern can and will play a lot better when they put United to bed in eight days' time, but the harsh nip of reality's incisors upon our nether regions is for another day. It's been a good night for United, and for David Moyes.
Bayern — which has still not lost since December 10th — came into the game as the heavy favorites over struggling United. They'll still be favored in the return leg thanks to that away goal, but this result was a mild surprise.
The Germans held all of the possession in the first half (75%+) but were completely unable to convert that into scoring chances.
In fact, the best chance of the half came from Welbeck on a breakaway
