    We're not saying they've been lucky for the past 5 years.

    But there's absolutely no way anyone can watch those two legs v Bayern and not say Madrid got lucky. If they do then they are deluding themselves or trolling.

    Bayern, particularly tonight, absolutely dominated the game. Madrid ended up going through because the Bayern 'keeper made a * of it and gave Benzema a tap in. If that's not luck then I don't know what is.

    Few posts tonight said * along the lines of ‘why are Real Madrid always so lucky’, ‘they always luck it out’ or ‘if they get to the final they’ll just fluke it anyway’. Etc etc
    I agree tonight, they Defo got the rub of the green but in the bigger picture, they’re no lucky so much in this competition. It’s Zizou and that *, Ronaldo. They * love this competition.

    So? That's Bayerns fault. Real aren't just going to miss chances all night if they think they "didn't have to work for it", whatever the * that actually means.

    Exactly..

    It's no luck getting to 4 finals in 5 year's. Everyone knows that's nonsense..

    Tonight though? As lucky as you'll see. Lost count the amount of ball's that just sat up and wouldn't come down in Madrid's box tonight..

    If we can't all a hammering like that luck, then we may as well scrap the word completely..

    Luck is a made up thing that losers use as an excuse when they go out and fail.

    They were probably even luckier against Bayern last year, Bayern outplayed the last year as well but got Vidal sent off when he shouldnt have been. Casemiro somehow avoided being sent off and Real Madrid got 2 goals that were offside, so 4 big things went against them that were more poor refereeing.

    This year Bayern actually made the mistakes on their own.

    Who the * said Madrid should miss them? Of course they are going to take every advantage they can get. That doesn't mean they never got lucky to be presented with the opportunity in the first place.

    Hope Real Madrid pump Liverpool now, but I hate Ronaldo so hope he dies before the final.

    I’d be lying if I said I remember tbh mate. I remember them destroying Juve in the final. Certainly no luck there.
    The thought of Ronaldo picking up another Chanpions league trophy is sickening but I like Zizou and can handle Ronaldo lifting it, if it means Liverpool get *.

    Never mind mate. Apparently luck is a word that isn't allowed to be used.

    Madrid did all the work for that second goal.

    A, presumably, grown man who believes that luck dictated how a two legged tie went rather than because one team was more professional than the other. That is something else champ.

    Funnily enough I was busy with something else. Like you said, it's a waste of time. You clearly can't have a reasoned discussion.
