The conquerors of Barcelona will come into this match, hoping to mend shattered hopes and dreams, against a young side which has yet to suffer heartbreak of any kind in any competition.

Team News

Mario Götze will not feature in what should have been his last game in a yellow and black shirt. His injury against Real Madrid caused him enough damage to rule him out of the final. Götze’s apology will do little to soften the hearts of those fans who believe that the truth behind the long recovery time might…

10 potential superstars Dortmund have lost to other teams in the last decade

Amidst the high profile transfer of German wonderkid Mario Gotze from Borussia Dortmund to Bayern Munich, let’s take a look at the other top players Die Borussen have lost to other clubs in the last ten years.

Mario Gotze

The attacking midfielder is Dortmund’s youth product having joined the club at a tender age of eight. Despite his young age the dynamic midfielder has already made 116 appearances for his side. The 20 year old is currently enjoying his best campaign having scored 12 and assisted 14 goals this season.

All-German Champions League final: Bundesliga's 50th season Grand Crowning

Friday May 24 2013,
Tags: Dortmund, Bayern
It took sweat, blood and tears to reach the Champions League final. Toni Kroos and Mario Götze were lost along the way. However, all the hard work ensured that their will be one true winner in this season's Champions League: the Bundesliga.
The Premier League's wage bill and foreign TV rights both exceed the Bundesliga by far. Aston Villa and Arsenal combined pay more wages to their players than the two Champions League finalists combined. Individually the fourth placed side of the Premier League pays its players more than the Bundesliga champions and the finalist of three of the past four editions of the Champions League.

A relegation threatened Premier League side earns more than the team which finished second in the Bundesliga after winning it twice and is in the final of the Champions League. As far as foreign revenue is concerned, the Bundesliga barely earns even one tenth of what the Premier League earns. The clubs want to extend their fan base to beyond Germany but not at the cost of their souls.

UEFA Champions League: Why European success is a must for Borussia Dortmund

Thursday May 23 2013,
Tags: Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Mario Gotze
With the Champions League final on the horizon, Borussia Dortmund certainly have a task on hand to convince their star players that the club is the right place to be after losing star-man Mario Gotze to rivals Bayern Munich.
Regardless of the outcome on Saturday night, no one can deny the fact that Borussia Dortmund have made their mark on the 2012/2013 season. Back in 2008, soon after coming out of a financial catastrophe that almost obliterated their very existence from the face of German football, Die Borussen have worked their way towards a growth model that has perfectly been complimented by performance on the pitch.
No more do BVB punch above their weight in the transfer market.

Winning back to back Bundesliga crowns is proof of the fact that a club can guarantee success even if it treads carefully. However, treading carefully carries itself one huge risk which is losing star players.

UEFA Champions League Final: Time for Bayern Munich to banish ghosts of past

Thursday May 23 2013,
Tags: Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund
After failing to win their last two Champions League finals, it is very important for Bayern Munich to make amends or forever be tagged as chokers ahead of the final at Wembley.
It is quite astonishing to see a squad as blessed with talent as Bayern Munich’s not being able to get its hands on the Holy Grail that is the long-eared trophy given to the victors of the Champions League.
Touted to lift the trophy last season at the expense of Chelsea, Bayern Munich were not able to do that at the Allianz Arena and lost to the Londoners on penalties. It was indeed a heart-breaking moment for a side that not so long ago, had lost the final to Inter Milan back in 2010.

Last season’s events led many people to suggest that despite the wealth of talent at their disposal, Bayern Munich may well be the newest Champions League chokers. Indeed, it is quite shocking to see a team containing players like Philip Lahm, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Toni Kroos, Thomas Muller, Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery never being able to guide the team to the highest plateau of European football.

The UEFA Champions League Final will see many star players out on the pitch. Let us take a look at the best of them.

Bastian Schweinsteiger

The common mistake which journalists outside of Germany make is a rather simple one; they almost always tend to mention Bastian Schweinsteiger as the captain of Bayern. While he is not the captain, one can understand why they make this mistake. Without Schweinsteiger, Bayern is not even half…

Tags: Borussia Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund reached the final of the 2013 Champions League in style. Let us take a look at five factors which sent them through to an unexpected finale.

1) Unpredictability

The Champions League was associated with a high amount of ball possession and some additional pressing in previous years. Dortmund completely changed this perception by doing unimaginable damage to their opponents with possession as low as just above thirty percent.

Their intense pressing was just too much to bear.…

Dortmund-Bayern Champions League Final: Why it beats an El Classico Wembley Battle

Friday May 3 2013,
Tags: Bayern, Dortmund, Real Madrid, Barcelona
Barcelona will not be crowned Champions of Europe in Wembley yet again. This season, Wembley will entertain a forgotten giant and a giant which has suffered repeated heartbreak in the final.
Last season the calls for an all Spanish final at Wembley from the fans were huge. This was almost shameful, considering that there is no greater view than watching the home fans celebrate the homecoming of their team. Football was coming home; Bayern München was coming home; the Champions League was coming home. But somehow, somewhere, between Arjen Robben’s penalty miss and Didier Drogba’s fatal kiss, the trophy slipped under Bayern’s nose and traveled on a plane to London.

This time, the trophy is sitting in London. But it is set to travel in the opposite direction. The only remaining question is whether it will head to the heartland of German football, the Ruhr region, or the heartland of heartbreak, Bavaria. Bavaria has not witnessed too much heartbreak this season aside from the crushing relegation of Greuther Fürth. It has collected enough memories to last a lifetime from this season.

Borussia Dortmund vs Bayern München Preview

Friday May 3 2013,
Tags: Borussia Dortmund, Bayern
The former German champions will welcome the current German champions in a preview of the Champions League finale on Saturday.
Bayern and Dortmund have already met each other three times this season. This meeting is set to be the friendliest of them all. However, there will be plenty of bad blood between the two even if it does not show through on the pitch. Hans Joachim Watzke clearly conveyed to the press that he will not be having lunch with Uli Hoeness and Co. any time soon. There will only be a ‘handshake’.

Of course the relationship has worsened to a certain extent due to the transfer of Mario Götze to Bayern München. While Bayern did not leak the news, losing Götze is painful for Dortmund. They groomed him to make him what he is today even though he is not the complete product. Also, rumors of Robert Lewandowski joining Bayern are getting louder by the minute. It is seemingly almost assured that he will be in Bavaria next season.

Down 4-1 from the first leg in Dortmund, can Real Madrid make the impossible comeback they have been talking about since Wednesday night?

The presence of Iker Casillas - whether on the field or on the bench - could be key for Real Madrid in their quest to overturn their 4-1 loss against Borussia Dortmund.Team news and analysis

The big news is that Cristiano Ronaldo is back after missing Saturday’s league derby against Atletico. The UEFA Champions League top scorer has been in the tabloids recently for issues concerning his relationship with girlfriend Irina Shayk. Ronaldo, who strongly refuted The Sun’s report via Twitter, will be hoping to rebuild his tarnished image with a perfect performance on the pitch this Tuesday.

The Spanish press will have its eyes fixed on Real Madrid’s goal post. Which man, between veteran Iker Casillas and January signing Diego Lopez, will Jose Mourinho pick in what Emilio Butragueno described as ‘Real Madrid’s game of the decade’?
