Both games are a spectacle to watch...If I layed both short favorites I would have made a fortune. :D
I am happy anyway, I layed the shortest of the 2 and they are 2-1 down by now...

Incredible staff last night. It was a disaster for Malaga, they did score the 1-2 on offside position but was not an easy call, the 3-2 insted was an easy call. The action started with 4 players on offside and finished with the scoring player on offside. The referee had a clear view, the linesmane and the referee near the goal as well. How did they miss that? It is a mistery.
The only bet that I am currently sure of tonight games is a lay bet on the bayern munich to qualify. It's currently at 1.1 which is worth to risk.For other bets I have to wait 15-30 minutes IN PLAY of both games. After last night games it's more obvious that everything can happen. Juventus is currently paid 2.96 despite having a strong home record. Last year they did not lose a single game at home and away. This year they have lost 2 home games, against Inter Milan and Sampdoria. Last time they have lost a home game in the champions league was in 2009-10 and it was against Bayern Munich 1-4. Don't also forget that Juventus has played the worse game of season last week which reminds me the bad performances of FEB-MARCH last year when they draw too many games and almost lost the title.
27. Round Genoa Juventus 0:0 (0:0, 0:0) details 11.03.2012
23. Round Bologna Juventus 1:1 (1:0, 0:1) details 07.03.2012
26. Round Juventus Chievo 1:1 (1:0, 0:1) details 03.03.2012
25. Round AC Milan Juventus 1:1 (1:0, 0:1) details 25.02.2012
24. Round Juventus Catania 3:1 (1:1, 2:0) details 18.02.2012
21. Round Parma Juventus 0:0 (0:0, 0:0) details 15.02.2012
22. Round Juventus Siena 0:0 (0:0, 0:0) details 05.02.2012
Vidal and Lichsteiner will also miss the game. However having bayern munich favorite on the MO, hopefully it can turn some good opportunitys in play. I think the odds should be equal for the HW and AW. It's very difficult that Juventus can turn the game in their favour and qualify, but the 1.1 odds to lay Bayern Munich, is a big invitation that I can't miss. Minimum budget and maximum profit if things will turn quickly in Juventus favour.
On the other game, I can only say that there may be fireworks. PSG is capable of playing the best game of the year and against the best team in europe. In the other hand Barcelona has only problem when they play against strong defences( Inter Milan 2010-Chelsea 2012 both with 10 men). This game should be different though. Ancelotti isn't Mourinho or Di Matteo, His style is always to play an open game, where can score 4 or conceed 4. I know he asked pubblicly an advice to Jose' Mourinho on how to beat Barca tonight. :lol: .
Messi has also recovered the injurie so, we will defenately watch a cracking game on both rent tonight. Lets hope.
Good luck all. ;)

Impressive performance by Bayern Munich last night and so from PSG. I had a loss on Bayern Munich to qualify but managed to go even regards both M.O.
In the end Bayern Munich showed why they were favorite on both games. Juventus did try tough, but unfortunaly still miles away from Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. However A.Conte have warned the Juventus supporters about the situation, he only started last year plus the financial situation is different to other major european clubs. This is something supporters need to eccept and take all european succes as a bonus.

PSG in the other hand spend millions and still went out against a poor barcelona. Messi came in and barcelona qualified, but until then, PSG looked like they could go throw. Shame it did not happen. Now we have Spain Vs Germany. It will be intersting to see how the semifinals will turn out.
Real M. vs Barcelona ? B.M. vs B.D.?
Bar. vs B.D.? B.M. vs R.M.? R.M. vs B.D? or Bar. vs B.M.?
What a fascinating semifinals btw..

It really looks like a Michele Platini master-plan. :o
Real madrid has lost against Bayern and against Barcelona in the past 2 years. This time Mourinho should have a better chance to reach the final with real madrid, despite dortmund is not an easy opponent but on the quarter final dortmund showed their limits.
However it may be a fake draw by UEFA, but is all what supporters wanted to see. Germany vs Spain...bayern munich vs Barcelona and Dortmund vs Real M.

Bayern vs Barca 4-0 :o
I know english clubs are not in the competition anymore but those semifinals deserve at least couple of comments or not?

I've now got to tell the kids I coach that tiki taka is not the way forward!

Brilliant from Bayern, especially the amount of pressure they applied off the ball. Watched a lot of Barca this season and that kind of beating had been coming away from home, especially with having a weakened defense. Was Messi even able to sprint? Certainly didn't look like it.

Something very Carroll and Nolan about the way Bayern approached set pieces though!

I agree...I 'd like to add also, it's nice to see for once the referee made barcelona feel what other teams felt in the past because of scandales referee decisions in their favour. 3 out of 4 goals should not be given, only the last Bayern goal was regular but totally deserved the victory.
If Bayern don't mess up, it will be the 3rd final in 4 champions league seasons, better the barcelona record. The only problem is that bayern usually lose finals. The closest call happened twice and both against english clubs ( Man utd 1-2 in the last 2 minutes and Chelsea 1-1 late goal from Drogba).
The other bayern problem is Mourinho and Real Madrid. This time Real M. is facing the easiest semifinal in the Mourinho era ( Barcelona 2011, bayern 2012) and if manage to reach the final, they will be very hard to beat. Mourinho has played 2 finals and won both with teams that you dont expect to win the champions league and the last final was against bayern which was played perfectly by Inter Milan.
I have no doubts that Real madrid will play the best semifinal in 3 years. I found the odds quite inviting as well.
The only decision I have to make is to back Real Madrid at 2,74 or Lay Dortmund at 2,72?. I think, laying Dortmund is the best bet I can get for 2nite game.
Also because is the last bet for the champions league 2012-13 and best value i can get until the final, ( win or lose)..
Good luck all... ;)

Had a interesting experiance this evening. Something went wrong with something I was testing and I ended up with a messy position in play.

So I thought I would take my medicine and exit inplay.

What a painful, process. Unless you are willing to offer a silly price it's really hard to get matched in the correct score market inplay. I could even offer up a simple arb and it still wouldn't get taken.

Should be an interesting all German final!

I got interested in Dortmund based on the group performance. Maybe something to look at from past years.

Omg 4-1......I missed all the action, I have just found out about the result..amazing staff.....
I had one of my worst day ever. My car broke on the moterway, I could not go back home. It's holiday in Italy there is not much help. It's just a miracle that after 7 hours of trying to find the way around it I have managed to come back home. I have also refused a taxi. The taxi driver asked us 500 euros to take us home, I told him to xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx :oops: At the end i got rescued by the italian AA but the man could not fix the car and could not take us home, so we went to the garage where they take broken cars and fixed the car my self..Don't asK how I did it, I don't know yet for sure.. :D
I am home now, I have never been happier despite the loss on Dortmund.
