Can you name the 2008 Champions League final squads?

On the 16th anniversary of the 2008 Champions League final, Sports Mole challenges you to name Manchester United's and Chelsea's matchday squads.

Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid are each preparing to square off in the latest edition of the Champions League final at Wembley Stadium on June 1.

However, on this day 16 years ago, two English clubs contested the showpiece event for the first time in history as Manchester United and Chelsea went head to head in Moscow.

While United were looking to win their first crown since 1999, Chelsea were competing in their first final, five years on from Roman Abramovich's takeover of the club.

After extra time could not separate the teams, John Terry squandered the chance to win the trophy for Chelsea in the penalty shootout, before seeing a further miss from Nicolas Anelka hand United a memorable triumph.

Sixteen years on from that famous night in Russia, Sports Mole challenges you to name each of the matchday squads named by Sir Alex Ferguson and Avram Grant.
