Tiki taka tiki taka tiki taka tiki taka..... Oooops! SPLAT!

That was very satisfying!

Messi was clearly not match fit, and a few referee decisions might have gone the other way, but I'm very impressed with Bayern today.

is that they played short three starters with Holger Badstuber, Mario Mandzukic, and Toni Kroos all out with injuries/yellow cards. They are an outstanding bunch of players (and for the most part great guys too), and they almost have to be considered the clear favorites at this point.

With the players set to join the side next year, Bayern have to be right there with Barca in the "top club in the world" debate. When they are on, they are simply amazing.
