Fox gives no fucks about the pre-game entertainment.

 

[Xando]

What is this, the super bowl?

 

[Tubie]

Fox just cut off from Alicia Keys to show commercials lol.

 

[Ape Gone Insane]

when the fuck did this turn into eurovision

 

[Podge293]

This hasn't happened before has it? I've missed a few final build ups the last few years but don't remember any of this ever ha

 

[PodcastFips]

Since when UCL Final have things like this?

For a long time already.
This show is pretty boring though.

 

[mellz]

The CL theme should be the only music this evening

 

[GHG]

Alicia Keys m'lady.

 

[jelly]

This isn't football. Can't remember them doing this nonsense before but maybe I was busy drinking.

 

[clemenx]

Ronaldo never does anything useful against Atletico, let alone in big games lol. Maybe he'll get another lucky penalty if Perez's cheque clears.

Cristiano does nothing in big games? I've time traveled to 2012 (it was bullshit back then as well)

 

[DecoReturns]

What isn't Fox Deportes showing this? I watch most of the champions on this channel

 

[SplitYourInfinities]

This is some Superbowl shit. UEFA pls.

 

[Tubie]

This hasn't happened before has it? I've missed a few final build ups the last few years but don't remember any of this ever ha

I don't remember anything like this happening before in a CL final.

Hala Madrid ...y nada más

Historia que tú hiciste,
historia por hacer
porque nadie resiste
tus ganas de vencer.

Ya salen las estrellas
mi viejo Chamartín
de lejos y de cerca
nos traes hasta aquí.

Llevo tu camiseta
pegada al corazón,
los días que tú juegas
son todo lo que soy.

Ya corre La Saeta,
ya ataca mi Madrid
soy lucha, soy belleza
el grito que aprendí.

Madrid,
Madrid,
Madrid
¡HALA MADRID!
y nada más,
y nada más
¡HALA MADRID!

Historia que tu hiciste.
historia por hacer
porque nadie resiste
tus ganas de vencer.

Ya salen las estrellas
mi viejo Chamartín
de lejos y de cerca
nos traes hasta aquí.

Madrid,
Madrid,
Madrid
¡HALA MADRID!
y nada más,
y nada más
¡HALA MADRID!

Its probably some kind of tribute to our lord allmighy Cr7.

 

[Eila]

Uhh what is this the super bowl? There won't be a HT show, will there?

 

[GHG]

This isn't football. Can't remember them doing this nonsense before but maybe I was busy drinking.

They de this before the FA cup final this year as well.

Money vs tradition.

 

[PodcastFips]

They should get Coldplay next time

Spoiler

Please don't

 

[Podge293]

Uhh what is this the super bowl? There won't be a HT show, will there?

Oh god don't jinx us. Please god no

 

[DecoReturns]

There is usually a song before the final or a ceremony of some sorts.

My favorite was in Rome where they sung "Now You Are Free" from Gladiator.

 

[Tubie]

What isn't Fox Deportes showing this? I watch most of the champions on this channel

ESPN Deportes has the Spanish rights for the final it seems.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I just hope it's not going to be a boring game. Kinda fear that this will be the case, because it's Atletico.

 

[Tugatrix]

This is not the super bowl, please don't repeat this UEFA

 

[Syder]

What is this, the super bowl?

No, this is way more popular.

 

[Duffman]

get this super bowl shit out of real football

 

[Podge293]

That was a great reaction by the crowd.... Or they just muted the crowd ha

 

[skynidas]

She is high as fuck

 

[PodcastFips]

New Battlefield 1 trailer please

 

[DSN2K]

Kick off at 19:45 right....

 

[John Dunbar]

trolling bayern with this song?

 

[nasax]

Lol oh man...

I'm just waiting for Alicia to have a Janet Jackson nipple slip.

 

[Portugeezer]

Now it's time.

 

[Putzweg]

Get on with the game already!

 

[Eila]

Crazy to think Zanetti and Baresi played at the same time. That guy hasn't aged a day in the past 20 years lol.

 

[DecoReturns]

ESPN Deportes has the Spanish rights for the final it seems.

Of course. I don't have that channel, but I do enjoy their commentary more...


Oh well I guess English commentary should suffice.

 

[Podge293]

Kick off at 19:45 right....

Maybe they pushed it to 8?

 

[SplitYourInfinities]

Now, this is a Champions League thing. Amazing.

 

[Xando]

Is this Mourinho singing?

 

[Portugeezer]

 

[la_briola]

Is this Mourinho singing?

come on

 

[Macrotus]

Didn't expect I'd get to hear Hans Zimmer there.

 

[Beefy]

When football becomes Americanised.

 

[tim.mbp]

Crazy to think Zanetti and Baresi played at the same time. That guy hasn't aged a day in the past 20 years lol.

Zanetti looks like he could still play.

 

[Baleoce]

Can't be doing with that font on the back of those shirts.

 

[SkylineRKR]

Zanetti was ofcourse a youngster when Franco retired.

I hope Atletico takes it. It would be a new winner. Though they can be very dirty, I admire their work rate.

 

[Carl2291]

Bocelli, Leicester legend.

 

[Damerman]

Rooting for simeone as a real madrid fan.

 

[Podge293]

Bring back platini, he may take bribes but he never subjected us to this malarkey

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

HALA MADRID MOTHERFUCKERS

 

[Eila]

Um is Bocelli singing over the CL hymn? Had no idea it had lyrics.
I don't pay enough attention to these things. First time in a while watching the final alone.
