On paper Bayern are much more organized and stronger collectively however, I wouldn't put them as strong favorites, maybe slight favorites given its only a 90 mins game and anything can happen. Fooball isn't played on paper thats what makes it great and not boring. For Barca to win, a solid defensive display is key. Its all about being solid at the back in this game and then capitalise on Messi's brilliance to nick to goal from a freekick or another Boateng moment.
I wouldn't be surprised if this went down to penalties.

Bayern are really in good shape, but they have not played before with big clubs. still, Chelsea is not ready for the Champions League now. this is the first game with a top team. I think it will be a difficult game, Bayern is a clear favorite, but I believe 50 to 50. it is a pity that only one game, I want to watch such football more.
The match is 1 one single game elimination, so...the underdogs got the advantage. Obviously...everyone think that Bayern would win(better team..good form) but I think it will not be a clear win. I think if Barca would win this, it will not be a surprise. Anyway, very very interesting match. I expect a lot of fun.
I agree with you! Maybe Barcelona realize that they need a proper coach in the bench! If they do that, they will the stars players and they won't win anything!Michel_11 said:
Well well, If I could I would be a couple of hundreds dollars on Bayern. Does anyone know what are the odds?
Unbelievable result what a great team is Bayern Munich Today but I think This barcelona is not at his best also was a terrible match for his defense cause I can't remember LAst time a Receive 8 Goal!! on a champions match Now imagine in quarter finals more probably is first time it happens this is history right now what we're living
Two cents on the matter
Great match from all viewpoints!:smokin:
If you remember, once in 2012/2013 Barcelona lost battle to Bayern Munich (future winner) with aggregate score 7-0 (4-0; 3-0). It was semifinal stage. By the way, Damir Skomina refereed 2-leg match (0-3). History repeats itself.:bandit:
Two cents on the team of Barcelona,😛cguru:
It is interesting to note that Barcelona lost all tournaments in the first season of Griezmann (120 mln.euro:deal:) and de Jong. :icon_scra
The issue with the team itself and that what is inside of the team. :toilet:Newcomers as well as picked up coaches, even if they technically strong and gifted football players/coaches, are not mentally tough to counter power which is Messi, Pique, Suarez etc. :dontknow:
This is time to say Welcome Mauricio Pochettino and Good-bye Veterans.
Good luck Barcelona!:idea:

What a game. As I am fan of Bayern München, I enjoyed it soo much.
The team was so focused especially forced pressing to the goal keeper and Barcelona`s defense. I wonder also what happened with Ter Stegen. Very bad playing with his feet. Absolutely horrible for Spanish fans, no club in the semi final.
