Humble Pie

As the finalists have emerged, it is pertinent to say that, no one is a write off.
In my last piece, I said Juventus were not deserving, lo and behold, the "old ladies" proved me wrong. As for Real Madrid, they couldn't break the jinx of no team has ever won the UEFA champions league back to back.
When will this feat be achieved?
Back to Real Madrid's penultimate night, is it only me that noticed that the fans weren't encouraging enough or they were just too posh for their team at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu? I thought they said the fans at home were the 12th man of the team, of course this didn't  apply to Real Madrid fans.
Oh Bayern Munchen left it a little too late. As you rush to score goals don't be caught napping on the defense. Well well, you played for glory. See you next season with or without Pep Guardiola as we wait to see his next move.
Barcelona FC, just in a class of its own.
It is certain, one of the finalists is doing the treble this season. Will it be the Catalans or the Old ladies of Turin? Well 6th of June seems far enough. But why do i feel Juventus won't turn up for the finals? As i replay Euro 2012 finals in my mind.
To the other teams that participated in this season's competition, i say better luck next season.
