    Don't get me wrong, I do think Madrid will find a way to win this at home.

    I hope the other semi lives up to what it could be.

          Boateng might need to go into hiding and change his name after that. Oh mama.

            Can't see Barca losing the trophy. They deserve it. Best team in the world right now.

                Neuer blew it... Ref was reaching for the yellow card on Neymar's dive but Neuer put it into play to fast. At that point, Bayern should have been slowing things down playing for a 0-0 draw on the road.

                  What was Pep thinking in the first 20 trying to out-Barca Barca in the Nou Camp. It could/should have been 2 or 3-0 early.

                  Messi is back to his old ways, Neymar has improved a lot, and Suarez has given them much needed physicality but Rakitic was a signing that is under the radar. Great on the ball, can switch fields with both feet and is a lot better than Cesc in the tackle.

                  Bayern without Robben have no teeth. They sorely need his directness vs the top sides.

                    I'm not sure you can hold that front 3 scoreless when they are playing like this

                      With 13 minutes left at 0-0... Pep blew it as well. Should have parked the bus an took the draw. I agree, Barca should have be up by 2 or 3 by that point but they weren't. Take the draw and hope for a home win.

                            Even if they had gone home 1-0 losers it wouldn`t have been too bad. I don`t understand why they didn`t try to park the bus after that but instead brought on Goetze.

                              I don't think you guys understand how hard it is to "just park the bus" in any game vs superior opposition, let alone one of the deadliest attack trios in the history of the game. If it was easy every team would do it. It takes weeks of planning and an entire team with a heavily defensive mindset, which Bayern simply don't have.

                              It's easy to say "there was only X minutes left", but in reality only blind luck and Manuel Neuer prevented that game from being a wholesale embarrassment.

                              3-0 flatters Bayern, they got absolutely pasted today.

                                You also have to remember this is Pep we're talking about - a purist through and through. That said, and since I'm a neutral, it's nice to see any top side not do that and go for it gung-ho. Let their supporters worry about "what the manager should have done."
