1-1 in Nürnberg (17th). 1-1 in Köln (13th). 2-1 in Frankfurt (8th). 1-2 against VfB Stuttgart (7th), resulting in the loss of the 1st spot to Schalke.

2-1 against Manchester United.Does anyone understand this? I don't. It's completely and utterly beyond me how Bayern can play so horribly badly and lose (or draw) against teams that are, quality-

I am stunned and proud and happy.

Perfect summation of how I feel really.

[txorakeriak]

Me too! And I had to pinch myself several times before I could believe it actually happened. ;)
I hope the second leg will be just as good. :)

Schalke are gonna take the league. ;)

If Schalke really pull that one off, Magath will have a nice laughing fit. XD

I have no problem with Schalke winning the league - as long as Bayern win the Champions League. (And then, the last laugh will be Van Gaal's. XD)

OMG, HELLO!! I missed you loads! But don't pay attention to that, enjoy your semester break! :D

I agree completely, their performance was the best I've seen in quite a while, and this time it was against one of the best teams in the world. (I might hate ManUtd, but there's no denying they're excellent competition.)

I suppose I should be surprised that we won this despite the fact that Robben didn't play, but if I remember correctly, neither Robben nor Ribéry was on the pitch when we beat Juventus in the second leg. I'm starting to think that we actually have a chance against teams with lots of individual quality as long as we fight as a collective. ;)

The funny thing is that next Wednesday I'll be in Liverpool and if I had expected the first leg to be like this, I would have tried to get tickets and travelled to Manchester for the evening. XDD So yes, I'm very envious right now. But I'm going to watch Liverpool's Europa League match against Benfica at Anfield on Thursday, thanks to sebastiona, and that's more than enough to console me over

[kiwirazzi]

HAHAHAHAHAHA MANCS!!!! Thank you, Bayern.

[txorakeriak]

LOL, it amuses me greatly how suddenly so many people are happy for Bayern. XDD It's a "lesser of two evils" case for most, of course, but still, it's good to know there's a bigger evil than Bayern. ;)

[txorakeriak]

Hee, I almost wept when Olić scored. XD SO FUCKING AWESOME.

[miss_black91]

THANKS, BAYERN! Now you just have to SURVIVE THE NEXT MATCH, PLEASE.

[txorakeriak]

YES, PLEASE! I'll keep my fingers and toes and everything crossed! :D

(And good luck to you guys, though obviously I should rather hope for the contrary because you'd thrash us. XD)
