So it Be… Maybe

The match for the 2008 UEFA Super Cup was played on Friday, 29 August in Monaco at the Stade Louis II.

European champions Manchester United met FC Zenit St. Petersburg, winner of the UEFA Cup. After a very physical match, Manchester United came out on top. Football prediction: Manchester United are the winners of the 2008 UEFA Super Cup.

Started in 1974, the match today signals the start of the regular season. Off-season injuries and illness left the status of many top players in question only days before the match.

Stade Louis II sits very close to Monaco’s waterfront; the modern but relatively small stadium, built in the early 1980s, sits on the same spot as the original, which was built in 1939.

So it be? Maybe . . .
