Vine: Patrice Evra says Carlos Tevez’s ‘United Blood’ inspired Juve to beat Real Madrid

"United blood" is in short supply...

Carlos Tevez and Patrice Evra have liquid Manchester United pumping through their veins.

That’s according to the Frenchman, after Tevez inspired Juventus to a 2-1 Champions League semi-final first leg victory over Real Madrid on Tuesday.

The striker claimed the man of the match award for his stellar performance – playing a pivotal role in both of his team’s goals – and was later praised by Evra.

“Carlos Tevez has United blood like myself,” said the Frenchman. “He is a champion. He has had a fantastic year and we want to win the Champions League. He is a massive professional.”

Assuming “United blood” is one of the rarer types, Tevez should keep a suitable donor close by in case of emergency.
