UCL Final

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27383593

It was kind of an ugly match with loads of cards. Even though the memory of 2012 would have given me an ulcer well before kick-off, and I might have gone catatonic with the wrong result, I think Chelski/Bayern would have made for a better final.

I just hope they don't lose too many players over the summer, and that they are able to make another run at it next year. There's nothing worse, in football anyway, than giving up an extremely late equalizing goal and then go on to lose the UCL final...

Gus Johnson is usually pretty good, but he got swamped by Wynalda's rah-rah for Real.
