Champions League - Team of week: United heavy Eurosport - Thu, 07 May 10:40:00 2009
Barcelona's hero Andres Iniesta is in our Champions League team of the week but the side is dominated by Manchester United players.
More Stories Report: Iniesta breaks Chelsea hearts Report: United overwhelm Arsenal GK - Victor Valdes (Barcelona)
Valdes is sometimes cited as Barcelona's weak link but he made some key saves over the course of the two legs. The save he made with his feet to deny Didier Drogba from close range just after half-time was particularly key.
RB - John O'Shea (Manchester United)
Another solid display from Manchester United's Mr Versatile. His flexibility allowed him to shift over to left-back in place of the at risk of suspension Patrice Evra in the second-half.
CB - Rio Ferdinand (Manchester United)
Made light of a sore rib to put in a commanding defensive display as United soaked up Arsenal's attacking pressure with ease.
CB - John Terry (Chelsea)
Chelsea's defence deserves credit for suffocating Barcelona until the very final moments of the tie and Terry was the key reason why the Catalans went without a single shot on target until Iniesta's strike.
LB - Patrice Evra (Manchester United)
Neutralised Theo Walcott so effectively there were times when you wondered whether the England winger was even on the pitch.
MF - Ji-Sung Park (Manchester United)
The Korean's energy and industry suffocated Arsenal's creative midfielders, and his deft eighth-minute finish set United on their way.
MF - Michael Essien (Chelsea)
A simply stunning goal from Essien was the highlight of another all-action display form the Ghanaian midfielder. Chelsea's revival in the second-half of the season is as much down to his return as to the arrival of Guus Hiddink.
MF - Darren Fletcher (Manchester United)
Desperately unlucky not to be playing the final, following his bogus red card. Did plenty to ensure United made it to Rome, however.
MF - Wayne Rooney (Manchester United)
Sir Alex Ferguson got it spot on playing Ronaldo through the middle with Rooney on the left, the way they combined for the third goal oozed class.
FW - Andres Iniesta (Barcelona)
Pushed further up the field due to the injury to Thierry Henry, the diminutive Spanish international came up big when it mattered most with a fine goal to win the tie.
FW - Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United)
Back to his best with a two-goal display. The free-kick was good, but United's counter-attack, which he started and finished, was simply sensational.
