You're scared of meeting Barca obviously, but it's understandable...

As a Barca fan, I hope you guys knock Madrid out in the semis (hopefully you guys don't do an Inter Milan against Marseille). A Barca vs Bayern final will be very interesting, although I have a feeling that it will be a Classico final (of course, Barca has a very difficult path to the final, but we hope to be in Munich come May).

Congrats to you guys for scoring 6 or more in the 3rd consecutive match! The interesting thing about today's win was that it was away, against a team coached by the great old king of catennaccio (remember Greece in Euro 2004): Otto Rehhagel, former coach of Bayern Munich.

U are right. As a very patriotic bayern fan, i speak the truth. Bayern this year isnt in the class of madrid/barca.

we have a shortfall of 3 defenders. Apart from lahm, neither of badstuber, boateng, van buyten, Rafinha, contento are players that can help bayern beat a madrid or barca. out of 11 players, we only have about 7 world class players

edoyad:

That's one of your very few good qualities, conceding defeat at the right time. Even the most optimistic Bayern Fans know their place in European Football, it's not the Semi-Finals. Usually, the term for your chances against Madrid would be improbable, but this year it's closer to impossible.

Who are you playing in the quarter finals na? Abi you no understand English again?

Yes, defence is where you guys have the issue (unlike Bayern of the good old days!). Badstuber & co are simply not good defenders. Your attack, though, is world class and the recent scorelines show as much. Against Madrid, if your defence holds well, you guys have a chance. Madrid actually don't have a good defence, plus they're over-pampered in La Liga, with ridiculous penalties & red cards against their opponents. If you guys are patient, disciplined in defence and quick to attack, you can beat Madrid.

interesting. Madrid bayern would be fun to watch. If schweini is back to fitness and kroos pairing him, with lahm returning to left back with a Rafinha or Boateng at right back, bayern may pull a suprise against madrid. David Alaba needs time to grow same with contento

The French FA has postponed the League match of Olympique Marseille to enable them prepare for the Champions league home game vs Bayern.

While Bayern, after playing 120 gruelling minutes vs Mochengladbach in the DFB Pokal on Wednesdaybefore still have to battle Hannover on Saturday before travelling to France

[size=18pt]Only Messi & Van Nistelrooy have scored more in a CL season - why Super Mario Gomez is the world's best No. 9

http://www.goal.com/en/news/1717/editorial/2012/04/03/3004722/only-messi-van-nistelrooy-have-scored-more-in-a-cl-season

Funny Article Indeed. Is he even the best no9 in the Bundesliga? A case can be made for Hunteelar being the best no9 in Germany.

Now tell us who is a better 9 than him and bring out their goal scoring records both domestically and in Europe

Mario Gomez has 18 goals in the last 2 seasons CL

The Likes of Van persie, Rooney,Cavani,Ibra, Huntelaar just to name a few are at the very least(bare minimum) at par with him.

Instead of reeling out their names

Can you just support them with stats bth in the league and in the CL

The phoney war is over. Now the actual war starts, and for Real Madrid there are few battles more bitter, few duels as destructive. CSKA Moscow and Apoel have been dispatched, as were Dinamo Zagreb, Lyon and Ajax. Madrid have reached the semi-final without facing a team from Spain, Germany, Italy or England. Now, a fearful and familiar rival awaits and at a familiar stage too. Real Madrid v Bayern Munich feels like a proper European Cup semi-final. Timeless.

They have met four times in European Cup semi-finals. Yet even the "friendlies" have ended badly. There have been walk-offs, stand-offs and plenty of sending-offs.

This may well be the only genuine, cross-border rivalry in Europe. Sure, there have been isolated moments – Chelsea supporters will probably never forgive Barcelona, for a start – and, sure, the Spanish dislike the Italians. But Manchester United still seek enemies in England, while Internazionale and Milan still seek theirs in the same city. The enemy within is the real enemy. Madrid-Bayern is different. Barcelona apart, no one gets the Bernabéu really roaring like the "teutonic" team.

Between them they have won 13 European Cups. Historically, they are their country's richest, most successful and best-supported sides and they know it. They are also their countries' most despised. Dominating and domineering, two behemoths snarling at each other. Two giants that, for all their similarities, could hardly imagine a club more different. When they confront each other they really confront each other – and they have confronted each other often.

They first met in the European Cup semi-final in 1976. A Bayern team boasting Müller, Maier, Rummenigge, Hoeness and Beckenbauer went on to win their third consecutive European Cup; Madrid went on to a five-year ban after a fan – for ever known as El loco del Bernabéu – ran on and attacked the linesman and Müller. The ban was later reduced to three matches played away, but the seed was sown.

Four years later, they met in a pre-season friendly and Bayern won 9-1, prompting the Madrid manager Vujadin Boskov to shrug: "I'd rather lose by nine once than by one nine times." If that sounds like perspective, think again. The following summer, Bayern were invited to Madrid's pre-season Trofeo Bernabéu. Klaus Augenthaler was sent off for making offensive gestures towards the fans. His team-mates walked off the pitch in protest; the game was abandoned.

More semi-finals arrived. The Quinta del Buitre may be the second-best team in Real Madrid's history but the thorn in their side was a big one: they never won the European Cup or even made the final. They made three semi-finals. Milan did them most damage, PSV Eindhoven too. But Bayern helped stick the knife in. In 1988, Madrid defeated Bayern in the quarter-finals; the previous year, 1987, they had lost to them in the semi-final. After a penalty was awarded to the Germans, Juanito lost his head and stamped on Lothar Matthäus's. Repentant, he later apologised in person, but he got a five-year ban. It was the last European game he played.

Bad memories for Madrid, but there were good ones too: the last two times they won the European Cup, they beat Bayern in the semi-finals. An omen?

Bayern could hardly believe they had been beaten: frankly they were the better team. Between 1999 and 2004, the two sides faced each other in three out of four seasons. In 1999-2000, they played four times. Bayern won three and lost one of them, beating Madrid 4-2 and 4-1 in the group. Yet it was Madrid who reached the final and won it. Just as Madrid won the European Cup in 1998, ending a 32-year wait. Their manager? The current Bayern coach Jupp Heynckes. He was sacked immediately.

During the galácticos era, the tension soared. Both sides saw provocation in every act. When Claudio Pizarro joked, "We're going to put five past those clowns!", Spain's best-selling newspaper, Marca, flew into a fit of righteous indignation. Oliver Kahn became a comic bad guy. Bayern were portrayed as snarling animals, anti-footballers, lacking respect. In Germany, Madrid were posers, equally disrespectful. Hoeness dismissed Madrid as a "circus".

"They were performing flicks and back-heels, showboating, not playing football. A complete lack of respect," recalled Kahn in 2002. "It wound us up, so we really went for them – and they didn't like it." Bayern won 2-1. When Kahn then added: "No one can get two past me in the second leg," Marca responded: "One's enough, smarty pants!" Anyway, Madrid did get two.

As if all that were not enough, now there is Arjen Robben, the former Madrid player forced out and with a point to prove, and the Mourinho factor. "Just because you wear cashmere sweaters, doesn't make you a gentleman," bristled the Bayern grandee Beckenbauer. "He is rude and loutish." Between Madrid and Bayern, the feeling is mutual.

Dayo, in as much as I would have loved to meet Madrid in the finals, I bet its more of an impossibility. I feel sad, but do your thang bro, cos I know they cant get past you guys, they chicken out against big teams.

^^^
aaaw.
ma boiz will do the bidding and qualify for the finals.
we get to play in munich twice
yay.

Bayern vs Augsburg

Gomez with a goal in 24 secs

Augsburg equalize

Schweini off target

Dayo Sorry for sayin this on a Bayern thread but i'm seriously loving this Dortmund team. I noticed Goetze, Hummel and Bender didnt play today and yet they still blew Wolfsburg away like that.
Pls when are they playing Bayern and who is gonna be at home?

They are playing Bayern on Wednesday and Dortmund would be home.

They are also 3 points ahead.

Anyone who wins that game wins the title IMO

This Wednesday? Oya let's go there. F uck Bremen,Team Dortmund all the way!

We know your type.

Bremen yesterday, Leverkusen today Dortmund tommorow, Schalke day after

Basically Anyone but bayern

Yes o. Me na underdog i dey support all my life. And moreover Bayern dont need my poorman's support. They've enough money to replace that.
Mind you na you i dey support for UCL since na you go be underdog against RM

Basics007: Yes o. Me na underdog i dey support all my life. And moreover Bayern dont need my poorman's support. They've enough money to replace that.

its wrong enough to just support anything and everything against the rulimg party just becuase they are umderdogs.
what happens when A that is top today and B that is underdog tomorrow becomes the underdog and B becomes the topdog.
shey you go jump boat again?


BTW,
bayern is no underdog to Real madrid. they both have equal chances of qualifying.

If you permutation occurs i'll change sides again ni. Isn't that better than a fairweather fan,supporting Chelsea yesterday and Man City today.
About the UCL,forget about equal for a minute,if you are asked who is the favorite to qualify btw the 2 who will you pick?

i will prefer you ask the question thus: ''who will i prefer/want qualifies''

I will then answer Real Madrid, simply because i support 'em.

but in truth they are both evenly matched.

neuer is world class as much as Iker
gomez/ROBBEN/RIBERY is as fearful as much as CR/BENZ/HIGUAIN.
schweini is as much a midfiled marshal as much as alonso is
lahm is also a world class defender as much as ramos is

i may say RM may have a much more outstanding defence than bayern but they also concede ridiculous goals against less fancied opposition talkless of a top class strike force owned by bayern.
