Cristiano Ronaldo kept Manchester United on course for an historic quadruple as they crushed Arsenal’s Champions League final dream inside 11 minutes last night.
Defending European champions United – 1-0 ahead from the first leg – booked their place in Rome on May 27 with two early goals from Park Ji-Sung and Ronaldo, who added his second after 61 minutes.
But United’s Darren Fletcher will miss the final after being harshly sent off for bringing down Cesc Fabregas and conceding a 75th-minute penalty, scored by Robin van Persie.
United – World Club champions, Carling Cup winners and Premier League leaders – now have just Chelsea or Barcelona in their way as they bid to become the first team to successfully defend the Champions League.
