So this season’s Champions League final will be played between Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid after the Spanish side pulled out a late winner in Berbeu last night.
Alphonso Davis put Bayern ahead in the second half with a really good goal with his right foot. It was one of those things where, as a defender, you have to show the player’s ‘weak’ foot, but you didn’t expect him to finish like that with it. That’s a really great goal.
Madrid thought they had scored an equaliser, but Nacho’s foul meant they were ruled out, and as the game entered the final minutes, Thomas Tuchel headed past Harry Kane to make it 1-0. this.
I think he couldn’t legislate for Manuel Neuer’s mistakes. The goalkeeper made a few saves, one in particular being really good. But he missed his shot and substitute Joselu slotted home 1-1. Here’s Sid Lowe’s explanation of it: “Former Stoke and Newcastle striker Joselu is on loan from second-tier side Espanyol.”
Soccer is really funny. The fact that he scored his second goal a few minutes later made it even more spectacular. Although initially disallowed, VAR showed he was clearly behind the ball, making it 2-1 against Real Madrid. Even if you don’t believe in such things, it’s impossible not to think they have strong Champions League shareholders. What they do in this competition is special.
Regarding the late goal, the linesman shouldn’t have raised the flag, but he did and the referee blew his whistle, and if the goalkeeper had tried to save, the goal may not have been scored. But he didn’t, the ball went in and Thomas Tuchel got angry. Oh well. I thought, ‘That’s what’s in it for you.’ A man with the resources he has shouldn’t have hair like that.
I know people will feel sorry for Neuer, but I thought, ‘That helps you too’ for not conceding a penalty after beating Bukayo Saka in the first leg of the quarter-finals. I mean, I know it was a failure of the officiating that night and not his decision, but still.
And then there’s Harry Kane. I thought, ‘That’s especially helpful for you’ because I elbowed Gabriel in the neck in the first game and only got a yellow card. Of course, like Neuer, the referee is more important than the player who committed the foul, but fate was watching and they got revenge for their long history of backstabbing violence. When Madrid got back in the game you couldn’t even try to influence the game because the guy with the horrible hair had taken you off the pitch and the referee had played about 20 minutes of extra time.
The season has already arrived for him. I would have to say it’s a very Harry Kane season. He scored plenty of goals, but not a single one of them mattered at all as Bayern went trophyless for the first time in a trillion years. I wonder what happened?! That’s right, Kane brought from London to Germany the traces of Tottenham, the most poisonous and destructive element in the world, seeing his success, and despite the fact that he does not want it, he cannot go against his nature and poisons himself. To death. It may seem unlikely, but it always happens.
Some say it came from a junk asteroid that fell into a swamp and polluted the land on which the stadium was built. It’s so fundamental that it’s now part of DNA, and when scientists examine its molecular structure, they see a double helix, but there’s a little shiny poop in there too. Malignant tumors can be so powerful that they can affect the most powerful organs, and the greatest thing Arsene Wenger ever did was remove Sol Campbell’s malignant tumor before he joined Arsenal. To this day he will not say how he did it, but it was simply a deal with the devil himself and he pledged his eternal soul to the Dark Lord. But it would have been worth it. Arsene may suffer in Hades forever, but he’ll be whistling cheerfully about winning the league at White Hart Lane the whole time.
To sum up, Kane’s season will see him do without the Bundesliga, the German Cup or the Champions League. But he will receive a nice prize as Germany’s top scorer this season: a big cannon.
Soccer is fun. Afterwards, Carlo Ancelotti said, “It happened again.”
Oh, it really was. Ask Harry.
until tomorrow.
