Der Klassiker is halfway secured! (Original Post)

Ron Obvious
(6,261 posts)1. Closer than I expected
Both sides missed some sitters early on, and I was almost certain Real were going to pull it off after the second one went in, but fortunately, it didn't happen. Ronaldo was strangely useless.
Better team over two legs went through.
I can't imagine Barcelona - Bayern being anywhere near this close.

Dear me. That was impressive, but I'd've loved it if Messi had been fit. The result would've been the same, but they wouldn't have been able to use that as an excuse.
An all-German final at Wembley, who'd have predicted that!
