Real Madrid v Bayern Munich

Vicxas

Bayern play some nice football until the final third.

Then all they do is lob it into the box. Driving me nuts.

Looking forward to the RTE lads after this discussing david Moyes and Utd.

Watching Bayern tonight is quite similar to my marriage. Plenty of graft being put in, but there won't be any penetration!

You know you're crap when you're making Real Madrid look like a rock solid defensive outfit.

The Chelsea defence would be able to knit sweaters while keeping this lot at bay at the same time.

Save!

wotzgoingon

That was a good save.

Liam O

What was Ramos at there?

Great save!!

Even Jose would laugh at this... The amount of work put in by these Madrid players tonight, some of them must be wrecked. Fair play to them.
Sometimes football isnt as easy as it looks.

Looks like a great tackle by alonso.

Muller just as bad as Pepe trying to cheat his way to a peanalty

Nothing in that imo. Not a dive or a foul.

He slipped.

Lapin

Looking forward to this night next year.

Sittin here with a beer clapping Liverpool off the Bernabeu as they take a 4 goal lead back to Anfield for the return game the following week





With a different ref on the night of course !

wotzgoingon

Cheating.

Moneymaker

Alonso motm for me too. He was brilliant tonight, blocked and tackled everything.

podge79

feel Real will regret those missed chances... though stifle bayern like tonight..

"Bayern have to get one back next week" says George Hamilton.

Well duh.

Not as much control in the second half let Madrid off the hook, though they did pile on the pressure late.

It can't be said that it's a good result for Bayern but there's another leg to go, in Munich, you'd imagine the heat will be turned up.

klose

Madrid should have won by more really, good match, bayern fairly poor in the final third.

How do you know he didn't think he was fouled?

Rayne Wooney

Just the 40 crosses from Bayern then

Barr

Real should have won by more. 1-0 is a slim win.

He looked for then ran to the ref trying to say it was a penalty when he knew it wasnt

Great performance by Real Madrid . Ancelotti really is a great champions league manager . He always knows how to set out his team to exploit weaknesses in the team he is facing . I can't wait to see the second leg . I would love to see bale fit for the second leg . He really could be the player that gets real to the final .

grumpymunster

That is why I really wanted Chelsea to get Munich in the semi.

So would Munich fans prefer to be in their shoes or Chelsea's. For all the touches they should have lost by 3 or 4

jimjamcos

Alonso and Modric gave an exhibition in midfield play there.

"Spanish Specialist"

Son Of A Vidic

Well deserved win for Madrid, they could have had a few more though.

Darkglasses

Jesus that's a hell of a suit you've got there Bill.

That_Guy

"We always call you our 'Spanish specialist' because you watch a lot of Spanish football"

Well it beats the usual, "Well, we don't know too much about them Bill"

shrewdness

Real really should have won by more, but it's still a good result. Score one next week and Bayern need three. With Ronaldo and Bale that bit fitter in another week, if they can get the first or even second goal they could kill Bayern on the counter as they push forward, on tonights evidence.

kfallon

Underage prostitutes in Madrid will be heading out about now, Ribery and Benzema will prob be hitting the town soon

Moneymaker

Jupp > Pep

Rezident

Dunphy: 'you need a messi'. As if there's loads of them floating around.

wotzgoingon

Eamon, talking sense about Bayern, deffo missing things since the old manager. They didn't look good against united or even tonight.

NIMAN

Now that was a game of football, unlike last night which Chelsea ruined.

Once again possession stats stand for nothing, and Ribery again makes us wonder why people chatted about him and 50 million in the same sentence.

Richard Hillman

Dunphy has turned on Giles

Liam: "They won the German league convinci...."
Eamon: "Ah you're clutching at straws here"
