Nothing to do with the competition, I don`t usually watch European matches but last night`s dismantling of Barcelona by Bayern was fantastic, I suspect there will be a few bargains coming up in the current transfer window.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Messi leave - it's no secret that he's not a happy bunny there at the moment.....

Barca 2 - Bayern 8

Spurs 2 - Bayern 7

To conclude... Spurs are better than Barcelona. :thumb:

Champions League
Bayern v Tottenham 10 - 3 Agg
Bayern v Crvena zvezda 9 - 0 Agg
Bayern v Chelsea 7 - 1 Agg
Bayern v Barcelona 8 -2

Very impressive. Leipzig or Man City can't make my mind up who I want to win it, a first time winner would be my choice.

I'm rooting Bayern or Lyon. The only real football teams left in the competition. The others are just a rich man's plaything.

Ooof, Sterling won't sleep well tonight.

87' - misses an absolute sitter to level. A tap in. A quadriplegic blind fella would probably have tucked it away.

88' - Lyon score their 3rd to put the tie to bed.

Oh well. Happy Lyon are through.

:cheers:

Congratulations to Jimmy Greaves, who has been in the lead since about Round #2. :thumb: :clap: :dance: :dance: :dance: :clap:

The Superbru final leaderboard is messed up with everyone having spoons and yellow caps! :shock: I'll post it up once they fix it later today.

Thanks to everyone for playing. The start of the next one is not that far away. :thumb:

Yes, congratulations JG.

I think the Yellow Cap situation is right, with 6 of us sharing the cap.

Oh, when I looked earlier, it said 6 had correctly predicted the correct outcome.

Everyone predicted the correct outcome, but they have a need apparently to give spoons even for correct answers, so those who picked 4-2 instead of 3-1 got one. :laugh:
