1. there's much difference between shooting a penalty during the match and the lottery
    lots of Big failed in the past .. Maradona Zico Platini Baggio ...

    surprised Robben didn't shoot it .. maybe he's not man enough hehe

    i recall only Roma - Liverpool ...
    and this time JT won't be among the penalties shooters

    Google helped me with this:

    1956-57. Real Madrid defeats Fiorentinna (2-0) at his own stadium (Santiago Bernabéu).
    1964-65. Inter de Milano defeats Benfica (1-0) at his own stadium (Giuseppe Meazza a.k.a. San Siro).
    1983-84. Liverpool defeats La Roma in the penalty round at Roma's stadium (Stadio Olimpico di Roma).


    So, 2 wins and 1 defeat at the local's stadium.
  3. shame on me i forgot the 2nd listed!! hehehe

    And Messi, widely regarded as the best player on Earth barely even got his penalty on target. Ronaldo did.
  5. Both missed vital penaltys ....

    Very good match by Bayer Munich. Lahm , Robben , Bastian Sc.....er ( i never remenber his last name ) Ribery ,.... they have a good team , i think they need a good striker , because Mario Gomez is like Niño Torres .....

    Mario Gomez has scored 40 goals this season in all competitions, topping last season's total of 39
  7. In that team you can put a tree in the place of Mario Gomez and it ´ll score 41 goals

    Out of joke, i think any striker in that team probably score a lot of goals , think Ibra in that place , i m sure he will score more goals than Mario ( for example) .

    He is not bad , but for a team like this- one of the best of the world- i think they need a better player in his place

    if ibra were at Bayern then Bayern wouldn't be in CL final
  9. Mario Gomez is an arse. Bloody greedy.

    If it weren't for Higuain, Madrid would have won it in extra time IMO. Although, Gomez should have scored when he tried to turn away from the defenders in the box.

    Messi is still miles better than Cristiano. Messi, besides being a magician with the ball, actively participates in his team's playing. On the other hand, Cristiano has 3 moves: run, shoot, shoot harder.
