Is it just me, or is Cole playing excellent tonight? He is some player!

I think when Terry is in the team Cole has a much freer attacking role and we don't see him so much defensively. Tonight with David Luiz beside him Cole has had to demonstrate his full range of defensive ability.

Knew it. Shouldn't be on penalties. Missed v Dortmund and was lucky against Madrid.

Team full of Germans, and they let a Dutchie take a the penalty. Miss vs Dortmund was equally if not more pathetic.

There's Terry.

C'mon Bayern for the love of Christ.

I have no love for the man at all, but on his day he is absolutely world class and he's shown that again tonight. An immense performance.

Should have scored.

How many shots have Chelsea blocked this evening ?

So nobody is going to answer my question as to where the ref is from! Fine! That's just fine!!! Forget about it!

murpho999

Speaking as someone with an unhealthy disrespect for Chelsea as a club, plastic flags, Chelski, John Terry and all that, I have to say whatever happens tonight that the players deserve great credit for the never give up attitude tonight.

There I said it, will go and lie down!

Apparently he's only the 3rd man from Roscommon to referee a CL final.

Because that is the kind of striker he is. He will do nothing for 89 minutes some games then nab a goal.

monkey9

You know what though, it's tough sh!t if Munich don't win this. They'd only have themselves to blame!

Paully D

Please go to penalties. Can't bare them when my own team is involved but as a neutral they're great IMO.

Torres is going a good job as Drogba-lite.

Nuri Sahin

Please, please, please do not let numpty take a peno if it goes into a penalty shootout.

Robbed is turning into messi from the semi final. He will be the reason bayern don't win.

PhlegmyMoses

Pity Robben wasn't that wayward against United in 2010.

monkey9

Let every single Bayern penalty, should it go to a shootout, be taken by a German!!

Jesus Robben

Only the 2nd.

You might be thinking of the 4th official a few years back.

murpho999

I think Robben is a Chelsea agent tonight.

kitakyushu

David Luiz shouldn't be allowed pass the ball more than 20 yards.

Paully D

Muller and Ribery off as well, 2 players who'd probably have taken penalties.

Rekop dog

Bayern have won all 4 shootouts in UEFA comps. Chelsea have lost both the ones they've been involved in.

This is set for a late late Chelsea goal.

I know it's vs a German team and all but somehow I find when a team is actually playing for penalties then they generally have the better chance.
