Difference between a Professional and a childish sore looser..

Sir Alex Ferguson admitted Manchester United 'cut their own throats' with their poor first-half performance against AC Milan. 'It is disappointing to come so close,' said Ferguson. 'We had done so well to get here.'Milan were fresher and better prepared physically but we had to cope better with that situation.'We had to get through the first 25 minutes of the game without cutting our own throats. But we gave away two sloppy goals. We should not be losing goals like that.

Sir Alex held his hands up and admitted the best team had won as United crashed to a 3-0 defeat in the San Siro.

"We gave away goals very cheaply and at this level you can't do that," the United boss told Sky Sports. "Credit to them, they pressed us really well and were very well prepared. They were certainly sharper and quicker to the ball. They've been good winners."

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho claimed the Blues were the better team on the night as his side crashed out of the Champions League on penalties to Liverpool. "We were the best team today, even against a team only playing for the Champions League," he added. "In extra-time we were the only team who tried to win."
