To be fair, the Gomez goal was offside and there was a clear foul on the Robben goal.

Nevertheless there was daylight between the two teams.
There were 2 handball incidents that should have been penalties for Bayern.

Barca were outplayed everywhere on the pitch even more than Juve were.

I guess now people can understand Conte's comments about Bayern being on a different level than Juve instead of the constant moaning about him not deploying the 4-3-3 that supposedly would have got us to shit all over bayern.

It doesn't change the fact that 352 against 433 is more of a toothless 532. We still got schooled and embarrased against Bayern, even if they raped a subpar Barca, which had problems eliminating Milan and PSG.

Great performance from Bayern, everything seems to be going perfectly right now. Hopefully they haven't peaked a round too early.

If Dortmund squeeze past Madrid you may as well put Bayern's name on the trophy, surely they wouldn't choke again. But if anyone could derail them you know Mourinho could, he always has a plan.

He just cannot compete with a squad like this under a coach like Heynckes. Robben, Robery, Gomez, Schweini, Lahm and likes are world class very experienced players for both club and country. The young guns and new purchases have blended in beautifully and added intensity to their game. They have the perfect mix of experienced and young world class players even from their bench.

I think Madrid will win it too, although Bayern was great yesterday, Barca's form is dead material :p since february, barca struggled to get pass Milan and PSG.
I think they'll play right into Mou's hand, unlike Barca, Madrid loves to stay back and hit you in the counter.

Aren't these the same coach and players who finished 8 points behind Dortmund last season?
