I predict Man United - Bayern Munich = 2 - 1

have been a fan of Man Utd since I was a kid. But lately they are just too rich and can afford to buy anyone they want. They have won the English Premier League and the Cup and they are now going for the unprecedented Triple (so is Bayern!).

Man Utd has Schmeichel (Denmark's goalie), Stam (the Dutch defender), Beckham (the Spice Boy who cost England the World Cup in that glorious game against Argentina) and a killer attacking duo of Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke. They had to beat Juventus in the semifinal, 1-1 in England and they won 3-2 in Italy after being down 2-0 in the first ten minutes!! I watched that game, it was simply awesome to see them come back!

Bayern is more of a team than individual stars. They have a pretty good goalie, a dinosaur in Matheaus (38 yrs old) and a Brazilian striker who I believe is injured and won't play. Ohh, also the Iranian El Dayi plays there too (as a substitute)...

They have met already twice in the Champions League. Both games were draws, 2-2 and 1-1. Both teams are pretty evenly matched and should be a great battle.

Enjoy,

Hope you can get up with Schwab<g>
