Inter Milan vs Bayern Munich - UCL Finals

So finally Europe's biggest football competition will be contested between Inter Milan and Bayern Munich. No English team in the finals...none made it even to the semis. Manchester United and Arsenal went the furthest but were beaten by Bayern Munich and Barcelona respectively.

For United, this represents a big opportunity lost...an opportunity to make it the UCL finals thrice in a row and a realistic chance to win it as well. I am not saying that Inter Milan are not a good team...they have beaten Chelsea and Barcelona so they have to be good. But I doubt they would have beaten United...

Anyways...we had a good chance to win our fourth European Cup and reach closer to Liverpool's record of 5 European triumphs. Sadly we let it all slip away...an easy draw...3-0 up at home...comfortably winning the tie and then a few moments of madness...

Anyways...best of luck to Bayern and Inter. Both deserve to be there...hopefully it should be an entertaining final and not a dull drab encounter between and Italian defence and German ruthlessness.
