I know it's kinda wrong, but I couldn't help but smile, when Ramos scored that field goal.
I hope karma don't come back to bite me :\

Loved how he walked towards his fans before scoring. You knew he was going to score and well deserved by Bayern as well. Madrid were poor in both legs. Speaking of which, I had a strong hunch before Ramos took his penalty that he was going to miss because I think Neuer put him off slightly with whatever that slight altercation was on.

To be fair they are technically half germans but combined they have the penalty taking consistency of one german, which is like 100% anyway

This is pretty cliche, but I feel like Germans are bosses when it comes to pens. I was surprise with Lahm and Kross I reckoned theyd have a higher rate of converting and probably roll RM over, I mean that happened anyway but It ended up being closer than I'd have thought..

Dont know what this has to do with this game, even the most hardcore oldschool people should be happy with him by now :D He's honestly the best goalkeeper in the world. I think Man Utd wanted him at one point but he was committed to signing for Bayern or he wanted to stay in Germany. Can't remember the details.

yeah schwein is pig and steiger is climber. bavaria has a lot of towns and villages with "swine" in the name too for some reason.

I think top 3 goalkeepers are: Neuer, Casillas and Cech.

You just never know with Chelsea. I didn't think they could come back against Napoli, they did. Then they struggled against a 10 man Benfica only to beat Barcelona in the semi's. Should be a great final!

damn chelsea vs bayern final such a weird year.

Hes probably right though, but you never know. Chelsea will probably absorb a fuckton, so theyve made themselves a hard to beat team. But they wont be as good with a makeshit defense.
Gomez will probably be the difference maker.

So have scientists isolated the penalty shoot-out gene in german people yet?

As a final note: Alaba impressed the hell outta me. Only 19 but so incredibly solid and smart, and dat penalty. Bayern has struck gold with this kid. Terrible shame he's going to miss the final.

Ramos drops another cup xD

Every time I watch Schweinsteiger I get more and more impressed by him. A lot of the work he does is quite subtle and not very eye-catching, but to the keen eye he's a majestic force on the pitch.

I hope that was a typo (makeshit) Bayern seem to have lost a few central defenders to suspension so it could be a high scoring game (for a final?). Chelsea should also have a liiiiiiiiiiitle bit more possession than in the semis though.
Bayern have a MASSIVE advantage with it being in their home ground though. Gonna be tough, tough game for Chelsea.
