Yes, Atletico!

In the meantime, in Sweden:

The game between IFK Göteborg and Malmö (in last seasons CL group stage) hade to bee abonded because of a firecracker being thrown at one of the substitutes (a former Göteborg and Ajax player), who responded by taking the corner flag and throwing it at the crowd.

And while game officials where having a meeting about whether or not the game could be continued, one person stormed the field and scored the only goal of the game so far. That person where one of the players from Göteborgs championship winning team in icehockey (Frölunda Indians, who won last sunday), Mats Rosseli-Olsen.

Exactly, he stepped in and took control of a winning team, and then Semi, semi semi
Edit: He didn't coach that last UCL win

You do realize that no team has won the UCL back to back since its inception in 1992. Bayern so far has lost to two teams that went on to lift the trophy in the Final. Nothing to be ashamed of. Bayern have dominated their domestic league and have only been challenged by the most elite teams in the world in the UCL semis. Not sure how that is a step down.

Don't know why you're talking to me as if I don't know this. Your point was Bayern was a force to be reckoned with before Pep came along. It's clear from their history, that their ability to reach the final was spotty. They had 2 good years and then got knocked out by a top Madrid side who went on to lift the trophy and a top Barca side who knocked out pretty much every European champion before lifting the trophy. And now he's down 1-0 to the best defensive team in the world and a team who just knocked out Barca.

He's not exactly losing to shitty teams now is he?

So please explain the miracles you want performed.

Atletico were overall a bit better and deserved the win. Still, this series isn't over.

But I hope Thiago's season is over. Man, what an awful display. He's been consistently shit for the last few weeks. Not that he was the only one, mind.

I am almost at the stage where I wish for Lahm in midfield again. Rafinha as RB can't be worse than what Thiago-Alonso do in midfield. Götze can certainly take over for this current Thiago.
