Schalke v Manchester United

Manchester United v Schalke
Old Trafford, 4 May 19.45
Schalke stand in the way of United reaching the Champions League final at Wembley after completing a comfortable two-legged victory over Inter Milan.
Bolstered by a stunning 5-2 win at the San Siro, only a disastrous collapse would have halted the Bundesliga side's progress.
But Spanish veteran Raul had the home fans celebrating on the stroke of half time with yet another goal in Europe's premier competition in front of the watching Sir Alex Ferguson and Mike Phelan.
Although Thiago Motta equalised in the second half, Benedikt Howedes made it a convincing 7-3 on aggregate and it is Schalke who will meet United over two games for the right to face Barcelona or Real Madrid on 28 May.
Jose Mourinho's side beat Spurs 1-0 on the night, 5-0 on aggregate, with a Cristiano Ronaldo goal.
