United's Foster to Miss Rome Final
Manchester United FC goalkeeper Ben Foster will miss the UEFA Champions League final against FC Barcelona after undergoing surgery on ruptured ligaments in his right thumb.Final Disappointment
Foster, who would have been an understudy to first-choice keeper Edwin Van Der Sar in Rome on 27 May, will be out for at least nine weeks, the club said. "It is big blow for Ben as not only will he miss the Champions League final but also England's summer internationals," manager Sir Alex Ferguson told the club's website. "Ben has tried to continue the season with this injury but it got so critical that an operation was the only way forward. It is disappointing for him but the important thing was to get this operation done." The 26-year-old England international made nine appearances for the newly-crowned Premier League champions this season and was key to their penalty shoot-out victory over Tottenham Hotspur FC in the League Cup final at Wembley in March, superbly saving Jamie O'Hara's spot-kick.

European Cup and Champions League History
The tournament was inaugurated in 1955, at the suggestion of the French sports journalist and editor of Gabriel Hanot, as a reaction to a declaration on the part of Wolverhampton Wanderers as being "Champions of the World" by the British press, after a successful run of European friendlies in the 1950s. The tournament was conceived as a continental competition for winners of the European national football leagues, as the European Champion Clubs' Cup, abbreviated to European Cup.
The competition began as the 1955–56 using a two-leg knockout format where the teams would play two matches, one at home and one away, and the team with the highest overall score qualifying for the next round of the competition. Until 1992, entry was restricted to the teams that won their national league championships, plus the current European Cup holder. In the 1992–93 season, the format was changed to include a group stage and the tournament was renamed the UEFA Champions League. There have since been numerous changes to eligibility for the competition, the number of qualifying rounds and the group structure. In 1997–98, eligibility was expanded to include the runners-up from some countries according to UEFA's coefficient ranking list. The qualification system has been restructured so that national champions from lower ranked countries have to take part in one or more qualifying rounds before the group stages, while runners-up from higher ranked countries enter in later rounds. Up to four clubs from the top-ranked countries are currently given entry to the competition.
Between 1960 and 2004, the winner of the tournament qualified for the now defunct Intercontinental Cup against the winner of the Copa Libertadores of South America. Since then, the winner automatically qualifies for the FIFA-organised Club World Cup with other winners of continental club championships.
