Great save by Cech on Robben. Where the hell did Martin Tyler, Gary Neville and the scoreboard go ?

Don't sense a rooting interest in me for either side but this match is kind of a big deal so I'm just hoping it lives up to it.

I'll admit, I've been a slight bandwagon Man. U fan, so I'm pulling for Bayern, even though I don't really care either way. I just want to see a good match.

Don't worry about admitting it... all American Man U fans are bandwagon fans. Just messing with you (and some others on here). :biggrin:

I can't say this is the greatest match I have watched. But still exciting due the finality of it all.

Mario Gomez is having just a dreadful half in front of goal. Nothing has gone right for him. I still expect him to score though

He'll have to bring his shot down a bit lower than the second deck.

I'm Irish...I grew up in Germany...and all of you backing Bayern can suck it...Let's go Blues!

I hope they keep feeding Gomez because he appears to want no part of actually putting the ball in the net.

Chelsea is going to break the home crowd's heart...own the second half and send Drogba out as a champion!

Worst part is, they don't have many strikers. Olic will be their only option if he continues to play bad.

I don't think they're that worried yet. They created some great chances in the first half and the only thing lacking was the finishing. I still think Chelsea poses danger on the counter, but Bayern also look capable of doing so when Chelsea get guys forward.

That's NOT what you want. If he keeps getting chances like he has, he'll eventually find the back of the net. Keep locking down Robben (which shouldn't be an issue with Cole over there), keep Ribery frustrated, and keep Gomez from getting any chances similar to the first half. Oh, and.... Pray Schweinsteiger doesn't find his range!

For the record, I'm hoping Chelsea wins, as it would be the upset of upsets, but I just don't think it's going to happen.
