BACK TO THE FACTS: After what was seen as a pretty average game at the Allianz Arena some time ago, Bayern have made sure their French counterparts Lyon didn't shock their critics once more to make it to the next round, the Madrid Final, after a fantastic game which saw Ivica Olic scoring all goals with a hat-trick in a game that ended 3-0 to the Germans (4-0 on aggregate). It was a game that pretty much anyone would have won, but after the Cris, the French side's captain, was sent off, the game very much belonged to the Germans once more. This victory saw Bayern qualify for their first final since winning it in 2001. The side is the only team, (aside from Real Madrid) that has actually won the cup three times in a row (1973 - 1976 seasons).
Italian giants Inter Milan, coached by Jose Mourinho (the best manager in the world, hope he comes to Arsenal!) has once again led a side to the CL final (the other being Porto) after a 3-2 aggregate win despite Barcelona defeating them 1-0 at the Camp Nou. It was a good tactical win for the Nerazzurri, holding the play for the aggregate victory. The only goal of the match was scored by Pique in the 84' minute, but it proved to be just a concellation (the spelling is wrong). Inter are in the Final!
Now it comes down to this. The Final is on May 22nd 2010 and I am sure both managers are within touching distance of one of the greatest victories of their careers....
PREDICTION: I am supporting Bayern, but I feel Inter Milan will win this with difficultly in a classic match off. (Maybe 2-1 to Inter?)
Till next time!
