Neville awaits Barcelona

Manchester United defender Gary Neville is confident the club will progress past Spanish giants Barcelona and secure a place in the final of the Champions League. The Man Utd defender was part of United's successful 1999 Champions League winning campaign and feels the club can repeat the success.

He said: "We have a great chance this season. Once you get to a semi-final anything can happen.

"We are playing well at the moment and winning games regularly. Last year we were maybe not quite ready. This year we have the players to go all the way.

"The games and the atmosphere against Barcelona will be brilliant. There will be some great players on show.

"Both teams like to attack. I do not think defence is the priority."
