That's how a UCL semi should be played out Worth sacrificing my sleeping time, although I think both teams ran out of gas in 2nd half onwards.

No Spanish team? No problem, I'll root for Bayern to win

bayern all the way. they should win. playing in homeground somemore. let see how chelsea gonna play against bayern

Rooting for Bayern to win in the final. They may equal Liverpool's five European Cups but I don't want to see Chelsea win it.

Sad to say, it should have been Barca in the final and that would be an amazing game of football.

Bayern didn't do that shit of parking the bus. Great respect and thoroughly deserved to be in the final.

im rooting for bayern in ucl final and liverpool in fa cup final.

Haha. I take it you're a Barca fan?

Liverpool-Barcelona = friends.

Bayern ftw.

i enjoyed watching liverpool play.
one of my favourite side in epl.
but if barca vs liverpool surely i support barca.

Haha.

anti- climax. everyone predicted it would be an El Clasico UCL finale.

who would have thought the other way?

Bayern for the UCL this year!

I found this

sad but true.
both team deserved it.

that's your (our) problem..

u read /watch football from English source /media.. the commentators /writers mostly are English.. its a natural, an Englishmen to give (OTT) credits to his fellow countrymen.. asking media not to be bias to certain side are like asking rooster not to crowing at dawn..

learn Spanish or refer to more Spanish source to get more 'un-bias' views.. im certain Spanish media lambasted English style of football in CL especially when they are quite dominant in 2004-2008 period..

Chelsea bus was so and so, main problem was Barca lacked inspiration on the night. It was like watching arsenal, thousands of passes with no clear end. Inability to adapt led to their downfall.

May I suggest, a physical forward? In the likes of marouane fellaini perhaps? Disrupt opposition defense when high balls pumped in the area. Would have been very effective.

And a proper traditional defender while they're at it. 3 breakaway goals in a week due to bad marking and lack of pace.

Hello?! At what point did Bayern lead Real to even park the bus? The point of parking the bus is to protect A LEAD. Which Bayern never had in this match and got in the first leg literally in the last minute. Even if you dislike Chelsea no need to resort to MORONIC statement like this!

+1








.... my job is done.Off to my thread.

Wow, Chelsea fans so defensive. Pardon the pun kekeke

Kacau orang tengah sakit punggung nanti kata trolling/flamebaiting plak...and its YOUR turf.

??? Not my home ler. Why you associate everyone who come in with barca? You barca fan ke?

nampak sangat sakit punggung.. sian

Doh. Actually all I see are you Chelsea fans acting so defensive about your...defensive game haha! Why don't just let the Catalans have their say. Not as if you weren't playing defensively right? You won anyways.

So why go around trying to justify it la. Are you ashamed of it? Make up your mind la. It's as if you're trying to claim that *gasp* you are in fact better in terms of skill than barca.

WhO the one butthurt I wonder. :/

Ya, Chelsea was in the Final the 2nd time in 4 years. Gud luck to them in winning the UCL Cup.

Chelsea had a lot of ageing players, therefore cannot run and sprint full 90 minutes. IMO, therefore their gameplan is to play defensive football and take chance in counter attack.
Imagine 3 goals from 4 attempts by Chelsea. That is very good.

Added on April 26, 2012, 9:28 amAll 4 teams, Barcelona, Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are in a better class this year compared with the other teams as all four made it to the semi-final of UCL. Only one team will be declared the winner and since BArcelona lost to Chelsea, the final two teams deserve to win the UCL for taking their chances and playing the right strategy.
