Play by play
- 93'
That's it! Lyon are deserved winners, and in truth they should have won by more. They had a string of chances in the second half and should be taking a two or three goal lead to Madrid. It should be an intruiging second leg.
- 92'
Ronaldo has another go from wide left of the box but Lloris claims it easily.
- 91'
A terrible pass from Benzema goes out of play and Ltyon's fans roar their approval. They've been worthy winners tonight, if they can hold on.
- 90'
Three minutes added...
- 89'
Brilliant work from Kallstrom as Ronaldo tried to get the ball deep in his own half. The Swede puts him under pressure, then Ramos gives away a needless throw in.
- 88'
Delgado is coming off now, he's been excellent. Full of industry and skill. Michel Bastos comes on as the snow starts to fall.
- 87'
Lyon try to keep ball but the bobbly pitch is eventually their undoing.
- 86'
Govou has been excellent tonight and he draws a foul from Diarra with a neat flick.
- 85'
Back in France Cissokho does brilliantly to get in front of Kaka and turn Benzema's cross behind for a corner.
- 84'
Milan have just scored a sublime goal, through Seedorf.
- 83'
A deep cross from Alonso finds Granero at the back post but he tries an ambitious volley when he should have cushioned it back across goal.
- 82'
Ronaldo, Kaka and Benzema find themselves three-on-three but despite costing about eight times more than the hat-trick defenders in front of them, they can't work an opening.
- 81'
Ramos gets a free header nods over from eight yards out. Lyon change: Lisandro off and Gomis on.
- 80'
Kaka now gets the ball down the left side and tries a curler and a deflection gives him a corner.
- 79'
Alonso spreads a nice pass wide for Kaka and he clips in a cross but it is cleared by Kallstrom.
- 77'
Pjanic is coming off - he's been good - and Kim Kallstrom is his replacement.
- 76'
Kaka is held up on the edge of the box then Benzema tries a curler but Lloris was in the right place and it causes him no trouble at all.
- 75'
Ronaldo gets to a deflected shot ahead of lloris and the 'keeper bumps into him. The ref looks like he's going to give it for a split second before waving play on.
- 74'
It's now 3-1 to Man Utd in the San Siro after a Rooney double.
- 73'
Ronaldo's effort is low, clips the wall and Lloris claims.
- 72'
Ronaldo gets to the ball in front of Cris and wins the free kick right on the edge of the area, but out to the right, near the angle.
- 71'
Poor control from Kaka as Alonso fires the ball at him on the right touchline. Lyon have retreated a little here.
- 70'
Benzema again profits down the right channel but he can't pick the right ball. It's just not happening for them at the moment.
- 69'
Benzema skips past Boumsong and squares the ball to Ronaldo but it was coming too quickly and his effort skims off his boot.
- 68'
Ronaldo charges down the left but Boumsong clears well. He didn't do much of that at Newcastle, I can tell you.
