Only two players have been sent off in a UCL Final - Jens Lehman for Arsenal in the 2006 final against Barcelona by Terje Hauge in the 18th minute for a professional foul after bring down Samuel Eto'o

Chelsea's Didier Drogba was the other by Lubos Michel in the 117th minute for slapping Manchester United's Nemanja Vidic in the 2008 Final in Moscow

United took the title with 80 points, in the previous six season's that would not have been good enough for second place
