Champions League 2013/14

He's said he's fit to play tomorrow night. We'll see.

I'm sensing some Hazard magic to help take Chelsea into the final tomorrow night.

Bale is fit to play tonight, too.

[brenchill]

I fancy Chelsea to beat Real in the final if they both make it.

[stokeriño]

I think Chelsea would find it tougher against Real than against Bayern, but the idealist in me a) wants a final against a different opponent to 2012, and b) wouldn't mind Pep failing even more miserably by going out in the semis.

Still, it's going to be tough as all hell tomorrow night. Can easily foresee nearly the entire match spent on a 0-0 or 1-0 knife edge that serves to shorten my lifespan by a couple of weeks.

[Baddar]

For what it's worth (absolutely nothing), I've said 2-1 Bayern tonight, so Real through on away goals. And then 2-0 Chelsea tomorrow night, but it won't be a stroll.

[Lineker]

Holders Bayern Munich recall skipper Philipp Lahm and winger Arjen Robben after the pair were rested for Saturday's 5-2 win over Werder Bremen. Madrid are close to full strength with Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Pepe all fit again following recent spells on the sidelines.

Bayern Munich: Neuer; Lahm, Boateng, Dante, Alaba; Schweinsteiger, Kroos; Robben, Mueller, Ribery; Mandzukic.

Subs: Raeder, van Buyten, Martinez, Rafinha, Pizarro, Gotze, Hojbjerg

Real Madrid: Casillas; Carvajal, Ramos, Pepe, Coentrao; Modric, Alonso, di Maria; Bale, Benzema, Ronaldo.

Subs: Diego Lopez, Varane, Marcelo, Casemiro, Morata, Isco, Illarra.

Mmm. 1-0.

Will require quite the collapse for Real to blow it now.

[MJB]

Cracking header from Ramos and Bayern now need three.

[Thrilla]

Fucking Ramos.

[Baddar]

Vamos Ramos!

2!

[King Ellis]

Fucking Ramos.

[stokeriño]

lol, 2-0.

Now here I'm just hoping Ramos gets a yellow that keeps him out of the final.

[Thrilla]

Fucking Ramos.

[MJB]

My word.

[Baddar]

lol, 2-0.

Now here I'm just hoping Ramos gets a yellow that keeps him out of the final.

I thought they scrapped that?

[stokeriño]

If they have, someone needs to tell all the commentators who are talking about it.

David Luiz and Willian are the two at risk of that for Chelsea tomorrow night.

[Baddar]

Oh. I could have sworn they only suspended someone if they got sent off in the semi after players missed out a year or two ago.

And it's 3.

[King Ellis]

lol, Bayern.

[Gorka]

This is something.

[stokeriño]

Is tiki taka dead yet?
