PSG doing their best impression of us at times with this shooting 

[trabuch]

The PSG finishing has been dreadful.

[trabuch]

Bravo Dortmund. Left everything out there.  I hope, for his sake, Terzic doesn't go to Man U.

Something lovable about Dortmund and the way they play, their players and manager. Solid at the back, pacy on the break with an old fashioned number 9 up top. And the beast that is Hummels.

 

Straight over to the fans at FT too.

They've ridden their luck, but I'm delighted so far. If it stays like this I'm RM tomorrow. I really don't like Real Madrid, but an all German final would be a bit dull. Also, it's petty I know, but Harry Kane missing out on a trophy would be funny.

I've always hated the final with two teams from the same league.

 

I'm torn on Real or Bayern though. Homer vote for Phonzie and I don't have anything against Kane. Then there's Bellingham 

 

Should be a good one.

We're all Dortmund aren't we

PSG and Man City failing warms the heart of football fans everywhere.

Even funnier that Dortmund have made the final in the face of limitless money, the German model of 50+1 is clearly no barrier to success.

It's a shame that Hummels and Reus are at the tail-end of their careers.

Imagine Bayern win and an all German  final at Wembley 🤣🤣🤣

Same as 2013.

Hope Dortmund win it this time though.

I'd like Kane to win it. And especially Dier after the ridiculous criticism of him from certain sections of the English press and Tottenham fans.

Yep. Just cant understand  the hate Harry Kane gets.

Comes across as a very decent family man and one of the best goal machines of his era.

 

We played him on the wing though!!!

He helped keep LCFCs greatest player of all time out of the England side - whether that's his fault or not, it doesn't warm me to him.

How tf does Rio Ferdinand keep getting co commentary and pundit gigs? Just comes out with clichéd non-insightful shite like 'who's going to stand up?' and 'It's about who wants it more'

 

Make Macca sound like a fvckin genius in comparison.

No footballer should receive hate just for playing the sport, it's a game ffs. 

 

But I don't like Kane and that's not an England Wales thing. 

 

He's just always been someone who talks about individual records and achievement first and the team second. Bit like Ronaldo really. 

 

Just not something I like. 

 

[spacemunky]

Phonzie!!!

 

[Super_horns]

Davies  finally gets his goal .

All three of them are absolutely dreadful.

The officials made VARing look very simple there unless our lot lol.

Ref just needed one look .

 

No flapping around taking ages .

[Vacamion]

 

I know it's a foul, but he's been lightly touched, then rolled around like he'd been baseball batted, then the Bayern lads surround and crowd the ref.

 

Bits of the game I hate.

I think if Nacho grabbed me by the throat I'd probably react similarly
