Sir Alex Ferguson is coaching in his fourth European Cup Final a feat only achieved by two other coaches

First to do it was Real Madrid coach Miguel Munoz in 1960, 62, 64 and 66, he started with a win in 60 and finished with a win and lost the two in between 

The only other man to do this was Italian legend Marcello Lippi who did it with Juventus in 1996, 97, 98 and 03, Lippi won is his first final but went on to lose the other three

United and Barcelona have met seven times in the UCL with the draw dominating the fixture

Four of the seven matches between the two have ended all square

United have just one win, 1-0 at Old Trafford in the second leg of the 2008 Semi finbal after a 0-0 draw at the Nou Camp 

Barcelona have two wins, one was the 2009 final in Rome where they were 2-0 winners

The other Barca win was back in the 94/95 season when they thrashed United 4-0 at the Nou Camp and in their defence that day was a certain Pep Guardiola
