2005 UEFA Cup final
Football match
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2005 UEFA Cup final was the final match of the 2004–05 UEFA Cup, the 34th season of the UEFA Cup, UEFA's second-tier club football tournament. The match was contested by Sporting CP and CSKA Moscow on 18 May 2005; CSKA won the match 3–1. Sporting CP opened the scoring in the first half from full-back Rogério, before Aleksei Berezutskiy equalised in the second half. Yuri Zhirkov would give the Russian side the lead nine minutes after CSKA's equalising goal, and the Moscow outfit would close out the scoring 15 minutes from the end after a quick CSKA counterattack saw Vágner Love become the youngest player to score in a UEFA Cup final at the age of 20 years, 341 days,[6] firing the ball past Sporting goalkeeper Ricardo to give the Russian side a first UEFA Cup trophy.[7][8][9][10][11] It was also the first European trophy won by a Russian club, in what was the first final since Dynamo Moscow—then part of the Russian SFSR of the Soviet Union—lost the 1972 European Cup Winners' Cup final, and the first European title for a side from what was the Soviet Union since Dynamo Kyiv, now part of Ukraine, won the 1986 European Cup Winners' Cup final.
