R.Madrid have done it before

Up to last night, the only time we'd lost 4-1 to Borussia was in the 1985/86 UEFA Cup.

We won the return leg 5-1, with Santillana crawling in the winning goal in the final minute. Epic!

Oh yeah, it was Borussia Moenchengladbach.



Nevertheless, we've made similar comebacks before:

1959/60
Nice 3-0 R.Madrid
R.Madrid 4-0 Nice

1975/76
Derby County 4-1 Real Madrid
Real Madrid 5-1 Derby County

1984/85
Rijeka 3-1 R.Madrid
R.Madrid 3-0 Rijeka

Anderlecht 3-0 R.Madrid
R.Madrid 6-1 Anderlecht

Inter 2-0 R.Madrid
R.Madrid 3-0 Inter

1985/86
B.Moenchengladbach 4-1 R.Madrid
R.Madrid 5-1 B.Moenchengladbach

Inter 3-1 R.Madrid
R.Madrid 5-1 Inter

Time to pick ourselves up. Believe!

¡Hala Madrid!

50P, the odds are obviously heavily stacked against us, but if we somehow managed to take a 2-0 lead into the final minutes, Dortmund could start to wobble like jelly. It's within the realms of possibility.

Forget the sepia times, Señor.

Channel Deportivo! We all know what happened in the 2004 coloured times of the Champions league - against the defending champions of Milan no doubt.

If Depor can prevail, i see no reason why Madrid cannot.

My 1980s TV set was most definitely a colour one.

Morgen Wolf.

I'm going to miss the match tonight as I've got to catch a ferry at the same time over to die Deutsche-Canarische isolen of Die Palma, but a big congratulations to you when you make it through. Sincerely hope you beat Bayern.

Don't think it's that cut and dried cosmico - as I said elsewhere, a hyped up Ronaldo is more than capable of getting two, or even three against anyone.

The big thing tonight is how many will BvB score

Real 3-1

I agree. As I said elsewhere too, it's not so much about us scoring early but to try and keep a clean sheet. Even if we don't score until there's 20 minutes remaining, if we've managed to keep you out we should be in with a shout.

Madrid are out.

Congratulations Wolf. Too little too late from us, but I suppose it could've been dead and buried before then anyway. Best of luck for the final!
