The 2007–08 season was one of Manchester United’s most successful under Sir Alex Ferguson. They won the Premier League, finishing two points ahead of Chelsea, with Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, and Carlos Tevez leading a prolific attack. United also triumphed in the UEFA Champions League, defeating Chelsea on penalties after a 1–1 draw in Moscow, with Ronaldo scoring United’s goal. In domestic cups, they were less successful, exiting the FA Cup in the sixth round to Portsmouth and the League Cup early. The season cemented United’s status as a dominant force in both English and European football.
