Whatever happens, I just hope the UCL final will be played between teams from two different leagues.

The state of these officials, penalty for a foul outside the area, we need technology for things like this.

I just hope it's not Barca, Real or Bayern in the final. Want to see someone different win it.

That is messed up, I did read that the police attacked fans, most of the time it's because the fans are acting like idiots, can't condone it though.

supposedly these fans traveled from Malaga to Madrid & trashed a train in the process. Then they were mobbing in Madrid. I guess the Local Cops didn't appreciate that. I found this video of the Police dishing out some damage

i think martinez career at bayern is done after today  

[Argo]

Watching Bayern was like watching us in 10/11, they were totally outsmarted by Madrid.

To be fair there is another team in the final as well, they aren't guaranteed to win if they get there. I'd happily watch a Bayern v Juve final, Leicester v Bayern or Monaco v any of the three. Im more sick of seeing Real and Barca than anything. 

Real is just a collection of great players, no true team and Uefalona can jog on. Still not over the screw job they benefitted from to keep the final from being the same two teams twice in a row a few years ago.

I'd like Juve to win it this year, just for Buffon.

On Leicester, from what I've seen and heard the Spanish police were heavy but there are always a few nutters who spoil the fun for everyone else. Pity.

You have a very short memory.

The Spanish police already arrested eight Leicester City fans on Tuesday for disturbances at the same place, Plaza Mayor, so it is no surprise that on the Wednesday morning they were already wound up. There were also some of them stealing in the restaurant of the train that took them from Málaga to Madrid (what a bizarre way to travel to Madrid). I don't know why people think they can go abroad and smash things up, throw flares and bottles to the police and shout at them aggressively and expect to be treated kindly.

Real Madrid looked good last night.

The sending off obviously helped them.

The penalty miss was huge. Should never have been a pen in any case mind.

After the sending off Real easily could have scored another 2 or 3 goals if not for Neuer.

Ronaldo is such a huge player even in his advancing years for them, unreal achievement getting to 100 European goals and 97 CL ones. One wonders if number 100 for CL goals could come in the final!

I thought that they looked very good in the second half before the sent off. And Neuer was superb to end up giving a soft second goal. He showed last night why he is one of the best goal keepers in the world.

[Celery1989]

Don't get why some feel the need to trash foreign cities when following their clubs, it's utterly deplorable. I've done many European Aways and most of those that go are able to enjoy themselves whilst respecting the local people and their culture. But then there always has to be a group of idiots.
