Champions League Final: The Day We've Been Waiting For Edition(1:45 PM CST, FOX)
Posted on 6/6/15 at 8:48 am
Posted on 6/6/15 at 8:48 am
LINEUPS:
Barce lining up as normal in the 4-3-3: Marc-Andre ter Stegen; Jordi Alba, Javier Mascherano, Gerard Pique, Dani Alves; Sergio Busquets, Ivan Rakitic, Andres Iniesta; Neymar, Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi
Juventus lining up in the 4-4-2 (Diamond): Gianluigi Buffon; Patrice Evra, Andrea Barzagli, Leonardo Bonucci, Stephan Lichtsteiner; Andrea Pirlo, Paul Pogba, Claudio Marchisio, Arturo Vidal; Carlos Tevez and Alvaro Morata
What you need to know: Juventus/Barcelona in a clash of European Giants. The Italians are famous for being organized, and their tactics will have to be spot on today to stop Barcelona's attack of Messi, Neymar and Suarez. The middle of the park will be incredibly fun to watch. In fact, it should be an all out battle as the two star-studded midfields fight to gain supremacy. Chiellini missing out is a huge loss for Juventus. Xavi is looking to finish his Barcelona career with a fairytale ending.

Will be crazy to see if Juve can keep it going one more time...I've got the Catalans winning 2-1, but it should be a tremendous match

Yep...trying to figure how he can top that Copa del Rey wonder-run

Smoking a boston butt now. Took the dogs out for a walk earlier, caught some good natured banter about RM´s plights, will crack an IPA in a bit.

I'm still a little drunk from last night. See you frickers at Finns in a little bit. I can't wait to fight all of you and win. Pussies. Come at me.

4-1 Barca with Carlitos scoring a great goal with an assist from Pirlo. Overall Juve will be outmatched. Not sure if Messi can top last week, but I've learned to never bet against him.

The Barca crowd that will be at Finns will annoy me too much. It was bad enough v Bayern. Will wait to go back to Finns Later.
