No chance. In a battle of the second best teams in their leagues the Final Score will be:Rayo B(ayerncano) 1 - 2 Real Moudrid

Well there's Bayern's 1. Didn't see but hearing they should have had a PK before that.

when Moudrid comes back to claim a 2-1 victory today.

Ze Germans better hope they take at least a two-goal lead (and preferably zero away goals for Madrid) back to the Bernabeu, or it's so long for them.

Damn - Ozil putting his Germany teammates to the sword there.

I doubt Schweinsteiger is 90mins fit. He's been out for a while.
