ha ha ha ha that looked easy...

--

oh no. that looked easy too...

--

bayern missing a lot of chances as far as i can see. all those crosses and balls in front of the goal and nothing.

--

so far very nice game but damn bayern score again

--

an exercise in frustration lololol

--

and the ref's red whistle keeps freaking me out

It is a good game. Bayern just need to be more lethal up front cos this Real are there for the taking.

Eeew, Banzema's 2nd was the gift of all gifts.

it really can go any way

really-- not trying to hedge or anything

game is wide open but bayern lacking finish

oh wait. fucking benzene. well. FML

if only neuer

if only etc

spanish witchcraft

maybe it's time to bring in sandro "big man at the front" wagner

--

see, to me, the "for the taking" is now clearly ulreich. looking a bit lost at the moment or no?

this game is fucking amazing!

Yes. Yes It Is.

bale coming in hmffffff....

--

oh. for benzine! maybe a good thing for me.

fuckin manbun lol

--

and here comes in wagner
ride valkyries ride

fucken. gaaaah. all twisted up inside.

come on javi you are the lungs

--

somebody give asensio a fucking bed. he clearly wants to sleep.

time thief !^@%%

oh damn. that was. uff. ayayay.

well real deserve it overall and that tolisso-ulreich business was dismal.

okay.

NOW IT'S KLOPPO'S TURN TO WIN IT ALL

That was a great game. So hard on Bayern. How the fuck are Real in this final?

grit and individual talent

... not to forget Bayern's own inability to convert the numerous chances Real handed them. Has Lewandowki sort of given up or something? What a decline he's in.

i dont know if it’s a decline to face sergio fucking ramos

i hate the guy but even chiellini said last month he’s the best centerback in the world. lewandowski was often overpowered which is why i was asking for wagner to come help.

and yeah mueller not in his best spot, no true winger outside of kimmich, but yeah ok lewandowski not in top form regardless. i wouldn’t call it a decline so much as a bad couple of weeks maybe.

i think bayern was punching above their weight yesterday—not in terms of the club but in terms of their available personnel. i was gonna say yesterday tolisso was doing greater than i expected and then he does that shit with ulreich.

take away everything but that fuckup and they would have at least gone on to overtime. and then james feeling sorry for real and throwing the ball away was not a good thing.

heynckes was quoted saying that “desire can move mountains” and sure they had the desire, but this mountain was a bit too heavy and maybe james didn’t have a full commitment to winning. so... yeah.

Tonight's line-ups just out

Roma: Alisson; Florenzi; Manolas, Fazio, Kolarov; De Rossi, Pellegrini, Nainggolan; Schick, Dzeko, El Shaarawy. Subs: Skorupski, Juan, Under, Gonalons, Gerson, Peres, Antonucci.

Liverpool: Karius; Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, Van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Milner, Wijnaldum; Salah, Firmino, Mane. Subs: Mignolet, Clyne, Klavan, Moreno, Ings, Solanke, Woodburn.

Liverpool score 1st after 10 mins. That's it, surely.

came in late to find liverpool scoring a second haa haaa haaa... against themselves

--

10min later liverpool scores again now in the right direction. is it me or is this game not as exciting/contested as yesterday? seems too easy for liverpool.

Anyone reckon it could be another 5 goals by Liverpool?

Incredible final when you think about it. Real Madrid have beaten all the league winners in the knock out stages (PSG, Juve, Bayern), and Liverpool have battered seemingly every team by 5 goals. Bring it on.

best thing about tonight so far?
No fucking Robbie Savage.

yeah--shaping up to be a great final

were rome by miracle win this i think real would eat them alive
