Man United won the premiership?

United is one point short of winning the premiership with a 2-1 victory
over Wigan. With two matches left, againt Arsenal and Hull, I will assumed
the Red Devil already won, given that they defeated Arsenal 3-1 in their house just last week in the UEFA match up. United seemed destined to win this season and might also take the champions league trophy too.

Champions league History

Europe's premier club competition was launched one month after UEFA's first Congress, held in Vienna on 2 March 1955 yet, curiously, the so-called "European Cup" was not a UEFA initiative.

Hanot, together with colleague Jacques Ferran, designed a blueprint for a challenge tournament to be played on Wednesdays under floodlights.
