2024 UEFA Champions League final — Borussia Dortmund vs Real Madrid — Wembley, Sat 1 June 20:00 BST

Expecting Madrid to win once they realise Dortmund aren’t interested in playing football. Could be embarrassing but I’m sure Madrid will take an any score win.
 
Problem with Madrid is that whilst they may not be spectacular, they do what they gotta do to win. They are OK going for a 1-0, 2-0 or coming back and win 2-1. The only team able to beat them was City.

Fletch: "OH, THAT IS SUBLIME, ALLY!"

Ally: "It is, Fletch, it really is. It really, really is."

The way that cnut does pressups he'd be lucky to be able to throw the ball past the end of his own shoelaces.
 
This is a Champions League final and normally, Champions Leagues finals are tight and tense. There is great a fear of making mistakes and that goes in detriment to the show. There is too much at stake, all the work of a season in just 90 minutes, so that is why more often than not these games are not the best ones for neutrals.

But let's see, maybe this night will be different.

4-3-1-2 with diamond in midfield

Courtois
Carvajal Rudiger Nacho Mendy
Kroos
Valverde Camavinga
Bellingham
Rodrygo Vinicius


Courtois finally plays the game but it was to be expected because he is much better than Lunin and also Lunin got sick a few days ago so he could not train well.

That’s true but your club is very experienced in these situations, and have produced some brilliant goals to be fair.
 
Why are teams out so early?

That's McCoist to a T :lol:

I'm going to have a shot every time he says 'really'.
 
Back to the football, you've got to feel for Lunin.

Absolutely... or is it McManaman ?

None of them can stop talking anyway... radio commentary for me. Fletcher is a little strange.
 
Have a feeling Dortmund are going to nick this one. Don't mind that at all, but will have to deal with that cnut Sancho running his mouth afterwards.
 
Surely Lunin leaves, played too well to be a bench player but he’s not a patch on Courtios
 
Apologies if this has been answered - but is this on YouTube? Or is it time to go fishing?
 
Guessing Alaba and probably Tchouameni aren't fit, they're just named on the bench to experience the celebrations if Real win? And maybe for dressing room presence too.
Yes, It is probably for the celebrations. Also travelling is a boy from Castilla called Yeremi de León, who is some kind of amulet

I have my doubts about Courtois and his recovery but I think in this case Lunin was ill last week.

The Discovery+ app stream has been flawless for me so far. The actual app and navigation on it as a whole is dogshit - had to turn my TV off and on again three times as it kept freezing.
 
Madrid are massive favourites. You'd never pick this journeyman Dortmund team to be in CL final at the start of the season.

They need something of a miracle, defensive masterclass, take their chances and maybe need penalties.
 
Who would've thought Sabitzer and Sancho would've been starting in the Champions League final tonight this time last season?

There's a lot of hate for Dortmund but I've always liked @do.ob so I'd at least be happy for him
