Bayern vs Chelsea has been a good game, but the ref is trying to grab the headlines.


awful ref.

euro refs often are.  which hot-bed of football is this one from.


Sweden.

And yeah, should be straight pens. Not exactly a major championship.

Chelsea gonna struggle.

... my poor Ajax.. :(

Bolded who I aniticipate to advance, I actually hope I am wrong ons everal to mix it up as pretty standard batch.  Agree that Ajax always gets crappy draw.

As of right now Bayern is the favorite, but no one has repeated in modern format so I'll go for Dortmund just because I wanted them to pull it off last year.  Be curious how Chelsea and Manchetser United do under Jose and Moyes in this for coming year.

In any event I'll still keep track and follow results as great club competition.

Do like to see Neuer humiliated.... possibly the most arrogant man on the planet


Hilarious.

Im still bitter about the WC and Lampards goal that should have been.

Speaking of keepers, Cech putting in MoM performance.



                            

Bayern get the equalizer with the last kick of the game.

Penalties. Hate penalties.

Bollocks!

Ah well, great game!



                            

Intense match, good referee, late revenge.

Guardiola 1-0 Mourinho

Killing him and his team slowly...Pep and his players (especially Neuer) will have sweet dreams tonight.



Lukaku must be so broken right now, remember the tv show about him where he was 15-16 years old and his greatest dream would be to play for Chelsea and make the winning goal in an important match...I felt for him =p.

lolwut

A card happy ref is never a good ref. 

Anyway. Bayern dont look as good under Pep as they did under the old guy last season. Struggled against 10 man Chelsea.



                            

@Carl: I don't agree with you about the ref, but I agree about Bayern and I actually enjoyed watching them struggle today against a team which they most probably would have dominated only a few months ago under Heynckes. I'm a Bayern hater after all (though I live only 10 kilometers away from their Allianz Arena). Bayern is clearly not as strong as last season which increases the chances of my BVB in Bundesliga 2013/14 even more.
