To repeat Leverkusens 2002 legacy, Germany now also has to lose the EC finals.

My thoughts exactly.

That Leverkusen team was awesome, too:

6th in the League, Newcastle ahead of them, then winning the Champions League. After all the fucking tension spurs went through last season to get 4th, what a waste of time. Fuck this shit.

Ugh same arguement over and over. Both teams played their heart out, that's taken for granted, it's a god damned CL finals. Bayern put into it skills and was much braver, but they were extremely unlucky. This must be one of the must undeserving title ever.

Can't believe I lived to see this day. After napoli away i thought it was all over. Then 2-0 with 10 men in barcelona. Then going down in the 85th minute in the final. Then a pen shootout against germans. Destiny.

Feel bad for bayern, they played fantastic and probably should have won but it was not their day.

To be honest, I would take Arsenal winning trophies the ugly way any day of the year over trying to win it in style and failing. Congrats to Chelsea for proving everyone wrong. I hope Arsenal can get there someday.

Like Barcelona deserves to win everything because they are better in Football Manager ?

Germany generally has been very unlucky in big international finals the past ten years.
But honestly, while watching the finals I felt that none of the two teams deserved the win. (I am neither a Bayern nor Chelsea fan)
The finals of the "DFB-Pokal" (Bayern vs. Dortmund) was way more entertaining.
MVP vs Squirtle of course was even better

all this talk of unlucky, bad styles etc is unbecoming. This is football.

If I were to big a fail in this finals it would have to be Gomez. Sure Bayern has better strikers than that -.- I don't care if he's done 50 goals in this years CL. Robben was a disappointment too, not because of the missed penalty alone but the whole game he looked way try hard.
I would question Hoeness decision to put schweinsteiger on the penalty spot. He was way too distressed (although the penalty wasn't quite that bad), you could see that in Robbens penalty already. I love Olic so sucked to see him fail his penalty -.-

I think Chelsea deserved this if not only for their insane work morale and attitude. Last 3 games you could hardly tell that was Drogba. Cahill was sick the whole way. Everyone pulled their weight...& Terry.

Overall the game was really good: great goals, few posts, and a lot of chances and action.

Oh and the keepers made the penalties really exciting


I blame Bayern coach a lot too, he has subbed Mueller out for vanBuyten.

Why do you sub out your best player vs an injured defender?

To be honest, this shit happening occasionally is part of the charm of the game. Doesn't mean we can't be bitter when it happens

That's exactly why it isn't unbecoming though. After all, football is to many people all about style, and I definitely think luck sometimes is a big factor. We should talk our hearts out about it, but no one's ever going to be right because it is so subjective

Luck is part of everything. You make it sound like they ONLY won because of luck. They didn't. They made their own luck.

Can't they say, that only Drogba receives the title and not Chelsea?

To get time. Common procedure in the end-game. Only works, if IT REMAINS TO BE THE END-GAME and is not extended.

lol at all the anti football bullshit. Chelsea doesn't play pretty, but they get the job done. If your team played like chelsea and won you won't be complaining.

This has never ever worked. I can count tons and tons and tons of important games where the leading team has lost because they decided to play defensively and waste time.

Also why Mueller??? He is their best active and counter-style type of player. He has won best scorer award in the WC2010 just by scoring counter goals.
