I refused to think of this after my beloved Bayern Munich shot themselves on the foot.They allowed Inter Milan grab victory from the jaws of defeat.Mario Gomez and Thomas Mueller missed chances,as 'Robbery' (Robben and Ribery)contrived to lose,by missing scorable chances.Needless to say,they missed a chance to consolidate on Bundesliga's recent superiority over Serie A.
Having gotten over the disappointent,however,I now have the unenviable task of predicting the winner.
First,I think the game between Manchester United,another beloved team of mine,and Chelsea would go 40-60.For once,Chelsea would be favourites.But they should be quick to realise that Wayne Rooney's 'football girlfriend' Antonio Valencia is back...more goals for Rooney then!
Inter are huge favourites against German outfit Schalke 04,after the Germans sacked Felix Magath for Ralf Ragnick.Even though they have not been doing so well,they already knew they wouldn't do any better than they had done until the season ends.The worst they could do was allow Magath until the season ends.They are in the German cup final too.
If Barcelona fail to beat Ukraine's Sharktar Donesk,it would be the 8th wonder of the world,and change the world calender.That tells how much favourites Barca are.I expect Real Madrid to beat Tottenham Hotspurs,largely due to the Mourinho effect.But they would do better than underrate Spurs.
In my opinion,and no disrespect to Inter or Schalke,I expect the winner of the Man Utd - Chelsea game to wait for Real Madrid in the final.Hey,lightening doesn't strike twice when the 'special one' is involved,so do not expect a repeat of the Barcelona drubbing of Real.
As for the winner,I would shamelessly chicken out of this! May be,you try.
