I couldn't understand why the bookmakers had Manchester City, with their porous defence, as favourites.

You watch it?

UEFA clearly sent a ref with instructions to knock them out. That second goal, with bar assistance, cannot be explained without corruption or a pay off.

He's miles offside ....and he fouled the defender by tripping him up.

Juventus also complained of ref problem....I take it Lyon are laying down a lot of black market cash, because that was the poorest red ive seem in the var era. And the single most poor decision

Did not watch the game last night but looking at the highlghts City had their chances. The miss from Sterling will be replayed for years.

Not sure why there is VAR if that goal is allowed to stand. Has to be a foul before anything else is considered. Unless tripping is now allowed

Pep is the new tinker man it seems. To many changes. Foden was great against Real so I'm not sure why he changed things around so much against the team who is 7th in the French League. This is the most expensively assembled squad in world football.

This format is obviously better for teams like Leipzig and lyon so perhaps a huge upset winner for this year.

Leipzig well beaten by Paris. Their first final?

With both French teams exceeding expectations, maybe this is linked to the fact they cancelled their league and have rested/had a long preseason build up.

And the format makes it a bit easier. Neutral grounds and knock out games.

Munich cruised to a 3-0 over Lyon.

Now, for a tasty final between the champions of France and Germany.

My pick is Munich.

Should be an entertaining final with a few goals tonight. Going for a 3-1 Bayern win but a PSG win will hardly be a shock.

Yeah I thought PSG were the better team first half but have looked toothless so far in the second.

Yeah, their approach didn't make sense. After going 1-0 down they seemed to be more concerned about not being blown away than getting back in. Although chupo moting misses an absolute sitter at the end.

Mbappe had a rare dud off a game. And Neymar failed to live up to any hype again, the most memorable thing he did was roll around and cry at the end

Was quite entertaining but lacked a bit of quality from both teams. Bayern have been the best team in Europe all season and were deserved winners.
