UEFA Champions League Final

There were four semifinalists until today. Now there is the definite finalist, Borussia Dortmund, and the remaining semi-finalsits, Barcelona and Bayern Munich. There is only one spot left and both have to fight until the end to obtain the last ticket to Wembley Stadium.


May 1, 2013 (Camp Nou Stadium)
On this day, Barcelona is playing in their home field with a 4-0 disadvantage that they brought from Germany. Barcelona's only option was to win with a 5 goal difference without Bayern scoring any goals, in order to move on to the next round. The first half did not seem so good since it ended in a 0-0 draw. Coming into the second half, it all went downhill for Barcelona. Arjen Robben scores the first goal, then Pique scored an own goal and it ended with Muller scoring the 3rd and final goal to seal the match and allow Bayern to move on to the finals. With a crushing 7-0 aggregate, Bayern is the second and final finalist. Barcelona's dream of moving on was over, and Bayern dreams to be the next UEFA Champions League Champion.
