Let's see, world-cup winning players all over their pitch including several player to recently play CL finals and get to advanced stages.

Dortmund's weakness is their strangely disorganised defence, elsewhere they're fantastic.

And clearly the better team tonight, Juve should not be in the lead.

Dortmund has 5 WC winning players. Out of the 5, Weidenfeller, Durm and Ginter played little to nothing. Juventus has 3 WC winners, Pirlo, Barzagli and Buffon. So what? I think they're pretty even teams.

2-1

Great 70 minutes from Juve. They started strongly, but Chiellini's brainfart sent them on a blackout. Morata's goal completely revitalized them and in all honesty they should have scored at least once more. Deserved win.

Dortmund looked a shadow of the side that made the CL final

The one that qualified for the last 16 with around the same number of points they did this time?
And that drew 2-2 in the first leg of their last 16 tie with the mighty Donestk?

The only good team they had to beat to get to the final was Real and even then only just.

Point they've been really good in the UCL this season, but people are dismissing them based on their domestic form.

I thought they played well tonight and bossed large spells of the match.

They bossed from 18' till 42', then nothing. Juve were far better.

Yeah Juve were the better side, even though their system should've been one Dortmund found comfortable to play against. I don't think they have a clue how to defend, both goals were so simple, should've had more too.

Defence is Dortmund's big weakness. Like ours.

Best teams either dominate the ball so their weak defence doesn't get exposed (Real, Barca), or they build their team around a brilliant defence (Atleti, Chelsea)

Three notes I wanted to make about Juve:

Bonucci has evolved into a very, very reliable defender. I always thought he'd stay a choker after they signed him, his first couple of seasons at Juve were a nightmare, but the guy has truly stepped up his game. I even rate him higher than Chiellini now.

Juve won't suffer Pirlo's blow. Marchisio is fantastic as anchor. Such an overall complete player, can play anywhere and always delivers.

Morata will become awesome. For a pure striker, he has all it takes to shine.

His range of passing is out of this World for a centre back, something you just don't see in the modern game very often.

This ref is a joke. That was a clear penalty on Costa. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
