Love this stage of the Champions League and can't wait till Barcelona v Liverpool

[CutMeMick]

I think Liverpool has a REALLY good shot at taking this game, Barca hasn't been playing well lately....
I think the last 2 weeks they've picked up the pace a bit, Dinho seemed to have fallen asleep for a bit and hasn't looked good on the pitch lately....

Liverpool is playing well and they seem to have a rythim going now, I just got a gut feeling Liverpools gonna take this one.

I think it depends on whether Messi and more importantly Eto are fit with out Eto Barca arn't that special

I agree and as of late it seems to me that the weight of the team is being carried by Deco & Guily they always seem to be in the play someway somehow.

Real Madrid is up 1-0, with a goal by Raul (as I predicted )

[CutMeMick]

Raul, the Madrid captain gives his side the perfect start with a typical finish. Ruud van Nistelrooy's clever through-pass splits the Bayern defence and, although goalkeeper Oliver Kahn blocks the striker's attempt to go round him, the ball falls perfectly for Raúl to roll into the unguarded net.

FWOCK! ME!

Madrid 1-1 Bayer \ games tied goal by Lucio.

[CutMeMick]

Lucio, the German side pull level 13 minutes after falling behind as the Brazilian centre-back heads past the exposed Iker Casillas. Willy Sagnol aims a right-wing free-kick towards the far post where Lucio loses Fabio Cannavaro and his thumping header gives the Madrid goalkeeper no chance. Bayern have a valuable away goal.

[CutMeMick]

Oh!! SHITSKEY!!!

Raul scores for Madrid

Madrid 2 - 1 Bayer.......

[CutMeMick]

Madrid are back in front and again it is a set-piece that causes the problems. David Beckham's deep corner from the right is met by Iván Helguera, whose header loops over the helpless Kahn and is touched over the line by the merest flick of Raúl's head. Two-one to the Spanish side.

[CutMeMick]

AAAAA!!! SHIT!!!
WE KICKING ASS NOW...

Madrid 3-1 Bayer.... Goal by Rudd (as I predicted )

[CutMeMick]

The Santiago Bernabéu is jumping now as Madrid take a two-goal lead. Once more it is a Beckham free-kick that causes problems in the Bayern defence, Helguera flicking on his free-kick for Van Nistelrooy, who ghosts in unmarked to beat Kahn from close range. Bayern have a lot to do now.
