Never really understood club football. I'm more of a "International Team Guy" whatever sport for that matter.
Football is always football. Just play tight defense and kick away the ball and you get away with 0-0. So Dortmund has every chance in the world to win this game.

Finally today is the day of the greatest match this season 
I'm looking forward so much. Germany waited so long to win a big international competition, but this night the series of bad luck will be over
I cross my finger for Dortmund, it's so funny to see arrogant Bayern fans crying like last year and to see Hoeneß' red face. Dortmund has likeable players, great fans, playing beautiful football. I like to see them celebrate with the CL trophy.

I really want to see Bayern's victory. They deserved on this, and have much better players than BVB and bravely endeavored to do it.
I will not able to see the final, because I have party in school (I will end the school in June). I will watch a only some fragments of match. Anyway, I wish very interesting show for everyone

It will be a tight match.
Many people expect an easy victory of Bayern (at least here), but I highly doubt it. These two teams know each other perfectly from Bundesliga, and I personally expect a tight match. It is also not a typical "walk in a park" match, but the final of Champions League. These are the matches when only the result matters, the art of play is quickly forgotten, as history remembers only the winners and nothing else.
Dortmund has a great team, and they are definetly not chanceless. I expect a little more defensive formation on the field and forcing the counter-attacks. Bayern IS the favorite on the paper, but with the smart moves on the field, Dortmund can win this.
I still don't know which team to support tonight
I like both of them Bayern a bit more, but Dortmund has our Subotic in it......what to do, what to do.........

3 lost finals in 4 years would be terrible for a club like Bayern and especially for players like Robben and Schweinsteiger, who already had lot of defeats in important games, not only with FC Bayern but also with national team.

uhm... congratulations to Bayern.
It's a deserved win. More forceful in second half, more threatening goal chances.
But unfortunately Bayern played with 12 men... the referee failed... he would have to give red card to Ribery in first half and yellow-red for Dante. It would have change the whole match.
But it's typical for this UCL season... where are the top referees like Pierluigi Collina? In addition football finally needs the option of video proof. So players like Ribery will punished for their behavior

I didn't follow the match closely, but Dante did deserve the second yellow, for sure. Still, I'm happy about Bayern
Deserved victory of Bayern.
Dortmund surprised me with the high pressing in the first half and that gave them a solid number of good chances for scoring. If they used only one, the match would've had a different direction. Bayern was patient, they were waiting for their chance.........it is an experienced team that doesn't need long time to create a chance. While they had problems in the first half, they were dominating in the second, and in the end, as I said, deserved this victory.
I ended up rooting for Bayern, but I wouldn't be sad with Dortmund's victory either

UEFA Champions League, 2nd round
Steaua Bucharest - Vardar Skopje
We got the toughest oponent from our group but I guess it shouldn't be a problem for us. In a way, I think that is a good draw for Vardar, because if we are excluded from European competitions, they will directly advance to the 3rd round wich means they are sure to play in the UEFA Europa League play-off or even bether. I am really nervous and I hoper that UEFA won't eliminate us from the competition for something that happened 5 years ago.
UEFA Europa Leaguer, 1st round
Domzale - Astra Giurgiu
If it would've been Maribor, I would say that Astra has no chane. I don't know much about Domzale, but the Slovenian football level is good so it won't be an easy match, also calculating that Astra is for the first time in the European competitions.
UEFA Europa League, 2nd round
Petrolul Ploiesti - Vikingur /Inter Turku
They will proably play against Inter Turku and the qualification should not be a problem.
Pandurii Targu Jiu - Bala Town (Wales)/Levadia Talinn
Levadia Talinn probably here and there should be no problem for Pandurii.
Domzale/ Astra Giurgiu - Omonia Nicossia
If Astra manages to eliminate Domzale, there would be some tough matches with Omonia, but I would say it's a good draw as Aalborg, Maccabi Haif and Hajduk Split would've been more powerful oponents.

^^ I had some feeling we will draw Vardar Them or Sutjeska. Though, I was only afraid of Ludogorets Razgrad. They are a very dangerous team and I am now sure how much we would've been prepared for them. Dinamo Zagreb barely passed them last year...........
Now here are the results of the draw for the teams:
UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE
Shirak / Tre Penne - Partizan
I think this is a perfect draw. Both teams are much, much weaker than Partizan, and we shouldn't have problems with any of them. Tre Penne played against Rad two years ago, and Rad beated them with 9:1 in two matches I expect the victory of Shirak here and I think they will outclass Tre Penne quite easily, so I see the Armenian champion as our first rival. We are the absolute favorites against Shirak, but we also must not underestimate them as all kinds of things happen in modern football, and Shamrock Rovers have proven that against us two years ago and Dudelange has shown that as well last year. I expect my team to cross this opponent without much problems.
UEFA EUROPA LEAGUE
Vojvodina - Hibernians
A very good draw for Vojvodina. Hibernians have history and tradition in Malta, but Vojvodina is a better team in all aspects and with Marko Nikolic as their coach I doubt that things can go the wrong way. I expect the pass of Vojvodina, and things solved in maybe even the first match.
IBV / Torshavn - Crvena Zvezda
I think that Zvezda had a good draw as well. They are much stronger than both of these potential rivals. I expect IBV to be their rival. I don't have much info about them but I know that they are fighting a lot on the field, that they have several English players and even the famous David James as a goalie. If Zvezda doesn't underestimate them, I don't expect problems for them here, but they really need to take these teams seriously as, through their history, they had much problems with the northern teams as that style is something they barely cope with.
Jagodina - Rubin Kazan
And Jagodina was the most unlucky team on the draw. Rubin Kazan is just too strong for them, and the only positive thing is that the city of Jagodina will see one big team there. When we look at the game, Jagodina is almost completely chance-less against Rubin. The best player Miloš Stojanović left the club, and if they sell El Monir, they will lower their already low chances.
So, I expect Partizan, Crvena Zvezda and Vojvodina in the next round(s).
