Champions (sic) League (sic) Final, Wembley Stadium, 25/5/13.
For the first half hour this had sucker punch written all over it. Bayern barely featured. After Weidenfeller saved ManzukiÄ’s header, though, things evened out.
Amazingly for a final, it was quite a good game; fairly open with both teams not afraid to go forward. Despite him setting up the first goal I found myself wondering if Arjen Robben was a luxury Bayern couldn’t afford. Then, of course, he goes and scores the winner.
I don’t suppose it was the wrong result given that Bayern’s goals were both from open play. The penalty wasn’t in dispute and GündoÄan put it away well.
Not quite a classic though. There weren’t enough swings in fortune for that.
