Champions League Final

[bibblebub]

Atlético Madrid v Real Madrid

What type of game do you think it will be? Dull and cagey or end-to-end excitement?

Saturday evening is my usual time for watching movies but if this match is likely to be better than the final usually turns out to be then I'll watch it instead.

Goals 31 shots 216

I can assure you more than 8 of them went over the bar, Randy.

[RandyMarsh]

maybe 9 but still you have to admit you would make room in your team for him.

[bibblebub]

i hadn't marked a best answer, Arksided, so don't know how that happened but you might as well have it

[Arksided]

I simply cannot not see Ronaldo not scoring and to be truthful I do want Athletico to win. I don't like the arrogant grime that is Real Magrid.

[Arksided]

^lol tied up in 'nots' in that post, I'm sure it makes sense.

[royfromaus]

Here is a a little stat (games played in La Liga)

Christiano, has score 1 goal every 6.9 shots

Gareth, has scored 1 goal every 5.8 shots.


Give Gareth the ball Ronny and let him shoot, it seems he is better at it!

[Arksided]

... but not better at getting himself into a position to try and take a shot.

I'm waiting for the team line up benzema 12/5 to score anytime @bet victor will do for me

[BlueToffee]

Looking forward to a good game, I hope Madrid win!

[Arksided]

Me too! no losers in that game.

[jubieanna]

I want Athletico to win. be nice for them to have the double this season.

[berniecuddles]

£20 benzema to score anytime 5/2 lets get it on.........!!!!!

[Arksided]

Gareth Bale sharing lol.

[ChillDoubt]

It's been scrappy thus far and the petulance and feigned outrage after mediocre tackles is already starting to show.
Not a patch on last year's final, where the first half was one of the best adverts for football I'd ever seen, it was superb.
As I type, Atletico take the lead!

[Arksided]

Athletico are playing against a bias ref imo.

[Captain2]

Not a bad game so far given what's at stake, but not exactly on the edge of my (comfy) seat.
Pretty poor goal to concede from a top team though.

[bibblebub]

at least one player sent off in the 2nd half?

[Captain2]

Think so bibble - and a 22 man handbags-at-dawn set to as well.

[bibblebub]

it's not happening so far for ronny so he'll be doing his best "roll over and appeal to the ref" routine

[Arksided]

Well its being entertaining, seen so many cup finals that have being drab, although not quite to its expectations Andy Townsend' commentary has being exceptional with his contradictions.

Still rooting for athletico though, don't care if Ronny scores.
