FT: Dortmund 5-2 Bayern Match Thread

Anyone else gonna watch it tonight? If their last league match is anything to go by this should be pretty damn good.
You Chelsea fans could get a sneak (alright maybe not so sneak) preview to how Bayern will line up on the 19th. Minus Alaba, Badstuber and Gustavo of course, personally I see them being replaced by Rafinha, Tymoshchuk and Muller respectively.
And us Man Utd fans can see Kagawa in action.

TRIVIA
Borussia Dortmund have not won the DFB Pokal in 23 years, last lifting the trophy in 1989.

BVB last appeared in the showpiece of the competition in season 2007/08. They were defeated 2-1 after extra time by no other than Bayern Munich, with Luca Toni bagging a brace.

Dortmund crashed out of the DFB Pokal at the hands of Kicker Offenbach last season. The 3.Bundesliga side defeated BVB 4-2 on penalties.

Bayern Munich have won the DFB Pokal a record 15 times in their history.
The Bavarians have eliminated Dortmund three times from the competition, losing just once to BVB back in 1992 on penalties.

Bayern Munich defeated two Bundesliga sides on their way to the DFB Pokal final in the form of Stuttgart and Borussia Monchengladbach, while Dortmund only met lower-division opposition.

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you stay banned now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

Liam LALson.

Let me give you a little inside information about Diva. Diva likes to watch. He's a prankster. Think about it. He gives man instincts. He gives you this extraordinary gift, and then what does He do, I swear for His own amusement, his own private, cosmic gag reel, He sets the rules in opposition. It's the goof of all time. Look but don't touch. Touch, but don't taste. Taste, don't swallow. Ahaha. And while you're jumpin' from one foot to the next, what is he doing? He's laughin' His sick, fu(kin' a$$ off! He's a tight a$$! He's a SAD1ST! He's an absentee landlord! Worship that? NEVER!

that one's a little tougher, but a personal favourite film of mine

I have to confess I don't know that one, paddy. Pretty sure I've not seen it, whatever it is.

If I had to guess, I'd guess at Dogma. But it's a pure guess.
