Certainly looks likely now, I'm pretty amazed to be honest. I thought Bayern could maybe produce an upset but I wasn't expecting anything like that, then Dortmund tonight, that's blown my mind.
Press are talking about a shift towards German dominance in the champions league but I don't see that happening, they said the same thing about english football in the united v chelsea final build up and it never really took off.
But.......4 goals each against the best two sides in the world? Maybe it is worth listening this time. Lets see how fit messi is for the return.
Exactly with the whole dominance thing. England isn't dominating now, and no league does for long. Yeah, Germany has some good teams.
ABOUT TO BE LESS.
Bayern buying Gotze was fine, but when they buy Lewandowski, what will be left of the rest of the league? It's just silly to siphon the talent out of the league for one team in order to be the most competitive in the CL. Then you end up with joke leagues like ... Spain... where 2 teams (tbf, only one team) pillage 18 teams and leave the rest of the league too weak to compete for the top spots in the table for CL positions. Better example is Scotland.
I'm happy Dortmund has their current position. Happy as can be. I don't give two shits about them, but I hate Madrid and Bayern.
Worst CL final? Inter vs. Bayern. Holy fuck. It was like Satan vs. Hitler. I couldn't enjoy that final at all, but yeah, Hitler is the lesser of two evils there. I rooted for Bayern, sort of.
These games could also go very drastically the other way when the next leg resumes in Spain (seriously, could they have split this?). Most likely, Madrid with that one away goal has some light to guide them through. I hope they fail. As for Bayern, I accept that they are through to the finals, but if Messi is fit, he has the potential to take a massive Argentine shit all over Germany, and I would pay to see that.
A Barcelona Dortmund final would be great. Especially if Dortmund wins it, and reaffirms the faith in competitive football.
Fans are sick of big spenders buying trophies. Sick to death. I speak for all fans, because I am everyone.
