    Bayern will go through imo. 1 goal and Madrid will have to open up, which Mourinho sides don't like to do against decent opposition.

    Says it all abot Gomez that he was poor and scored the winner. 12 in 10 in the Champions League is Messiesque.

    I'd also like to say the ref was *, especially second half. Madrid were getting the rub of every single decision.

    I enjoyed seeing all the English Journalists say how well Webb did tonight whilst all other journalists and fans said he was poor.

    Can't wait for the 2nd leg already. Could be a classic.

    Thought Lahm showed what a big game player he is tonight. Outstanding.

    Really enjoyed Bayerns game tonight, they look a brilliant team. Also for a team to play like that and be out of the running for their own domestic title highlights again for me that the Bundesliga is the best league in the world.

    Hope Bayern beat Madrid but at the same time i would love to see all the drama of an El Classico in the final.

    Also id say Howard Webb had an outstanding game tonight as ref, he bottled nothing, no to all pen claims and their were none red cards imo. If anyone should have been booked though id give it to ribery for constantly going to ground.

    Sort of agree with you he got the 2 pen calls 100% Correct.

    He should have booked Ribery for diving .

    He should have booked Robben for a swipe at Ronaldo after the ball had gone.

    Marcelo should have seen a red.

    It's anyone's now but I still see Real Madrid going through and I hope they do because I want to see an El Classico final.

    For whatever reason, I can't see barca winning tonight. I can see Chelsea sneaking it or a tight draw. Chelsea at 4/1 is a great price. Really hoping barca absolutely destroy them though

    Hope Barca pump Chelsea but I think if they do win it'll be by the odd goal. Chelsea have been in terrific form at home in the CL this season. Additionally, Barca have struggled big time to carve teams open on small pitches this season (just look at how difficult they found it at Levante at the weekend).

    Can see Barca winning comfortably on aggregate but tonight will be a tough test. 2-1 Barcelona.
