Manchester United Plane Aborts Landing In Germany

Manchester United's plane had to abort its landing 400m above the runway as they flew to Germany for the Champions League tie with Bayer Leverkusen.

The plane landed safely at the second attempt at Cologne/Bonn airport ahead of Wednesday's match.


The club declined to comment, but Rio Ferdinand said  : "Landed in Germany....just....I've only just recovered after that choppy landing!"

United will qualify for the last 16 with a win at the Bay Arena tomorrow night.
