AMD 3 - Los geht's, Bayern Munchen!

For AMD 3, I watched the soccer game of Bayern Munchen against Arsenal from London, for the first knockout round of the UEFA Champions League, the highest tier soccer league in Europe. To make the game fun or me to watch, I found live coverage of the match online, in German! I must say it was quite an experience, since the commentators were speaking really fast in order to describe everything that was going on during the game. Gladly, I was able to understand some of the words, including "Tur, Tur, Tur!" which I heard plenty of times, since Bayern ended up winning by 3-1, with the Germans Kroos, Muller, and the Croatian Mandzukic scoring Bayern's goals. It is interesting that the scorer of Arsenal's goal was Lucas Podolski who is German and has actually played for Bayern during the period 2006-2009. It was an easy victory for Bayern, since they took the lead during the 7th minute of the game and doubled their goals soon. Since the game took place in London, the second leg will be played in Munich, and Arsenal needs to win by 3-0 or at least 3-1 to take the game to overtime. From my experience, this is highly unlikely, as Bayern Munchen has one of the strongest teams in Europe. However, as I also watched and listened to Bayern's players after the game, they said that despite the advantage, anything can happen in football, and they have to be focused during the second leg so that they do not get surprised by the English team that has proven many times in the past that they are capable of anything. Unfortunately, due to copyright reasons from UEFA, I could not find the German version of the highlights and goals, but I have uploaded the only available I could find! Enjoy the show!
