Winning and losing is part of the game with soccer is having surprising history which is clearly indicating about any result with in last few finals which are we having in different countries give all atmosphere about cup games which are never been easy to play for any team because here all is just you need to be in for the win and any player can make difference which is surely the most interesting part as we have Lookman who hit hat-trick and end the winning streak of the Bayer Leverkusen so here we are also having 20 players will be give their best for having their favourite result.

Dortmund is having not good season in Bundesliga but their performance from the early matches till now is amazing because no one were expecting they could be jump out of the death group, but they have done and now no one expecting them to beat Real Madrid so is this possible it's really not predictable.

Dortmund have impressive performed in Champion League for this season after success reaching the UEFA Champion League final round, its difficult for unfavorite team eliminating top teams such as Atletico Madrid and PSG before success qualifying to final stage. I remember last final Champion League reached by Dortmund on season 2012–13 with most star player from Ikay Gundogan, Matt Hummer, Marco Reus until Robert Lewandowski but failed for defeating Bayern Munich in the final round.

Its third final of Champion League reached by Dortmund but only one time success become the winner, its make motivate for winning their third final but not easy for beating Real Madrid have many star players and become more favorite team for winning the UEFA Champion League trophy.

Reaching UEFA Champions league finals is already a huge achievement for Borussia Dortmund. This is the 3rd time they have reached the Championship finals and 2nd time in last 25 years. They are a great team but the luck also favored them as they had to meet the poorer team in comparison. They met PSV on round of 16 who were one of the weakest of the 16. They met Atletico Madrid on quaterfinals, Atletico Madrid and Dortmund were considered the weakest of the 8, They met PSG on semis, who is certainly considered weaker in comparison to Munich and Madrid. Many people even claimed Munich vs Madrid semi is the real finals. But the final consist of just one match which is much harder to predict than a two legged game.

Realmadrid are not used to possessions
They are only after attacking  but we can still say possession might still favour them because of their opponents and might still not if their opponents tends to be on a very different form so it's under maybe but for sure Realmadrid is not after possession.

The only way for a more defensive game is if  Dortmund secure a goal first before  realmadrid does but defensive game might not be too much until 70 ~80 maybe for Realmadrid  because  they don't really like playing extra-time.Dortmund are good in defensive game while realmadrid is good in attacking  so playing Dortmund playing defensive alot might be a bad idea but they still need to balance it because  there's one thing have noticed in realmadrid  when playing  matches like this
"Offside playing " ~ a player or two atackers are always placed on Offside or near Offside  without  them attracting attention until perfect time

You are right that football is not only about goals and assists because speed and other tactics are also needed on the field. If players are not good at playing tactics then they cannot perform well on the field. There are also striker players who need other players so they can create opportunities. Usually those who have tactics. intelligence in dribbling and speed in running so that not only players can score goals, the composition of players on the field have different roles, not all of them attack on the field. If all players play the role of attacking and scoring goals, the role of the back line will be destroyed and in the end they will often concede. The role of the back line is also very important to maintain the defense.

Jude Bellingham has a good playing technique even though he is currently not as productive on the field as he was at the start of the season but in fact Carlo Anceloti still considers him an important player on the field and is really needed to complete the main starting because the coach really knows that the players he has have strong strengths. What is needed on the field is not only to attack and create opportunities because the role of each player in completing the composition of the squad makes the club perform optimally.

There is no doubt it's hard to think about anything but in UEFA we can expect things like which we have not in our thoughts so if we have something surprising or shocking it's never been new because we are having history of results like this with Atlanta win against Bayer Leverkusen is recent time shock which is good encouragement to all those were expecting simple straight forward result in this game. Real Madrid is consistent in Champions League with things have never been problematic for them because they are having competitive squad and their performance and quality both are already checked which give them perfect result.

As we are having hype about this match, most chances we will be having one-sided affair because Real Madrid will be never allow Borussia Dortmund to have any problem for them with their attack even their defense is amazing in last few games.

Real Madrid is having legitimate history in the Champions League no one can deny their success and results which they have in last few rounds here in this season with no one also having any doubt about Borussia Dortmund which is currently opponent of them but still we need to understand this is game and any team can go through for the win with both are having good results and players which can change the momentum of the game.
Real Madrid is having good players those can bring changes with their own skills and quality which is huge advantage for them as they are going for the youngsters which are backed by few experienced players those are doing this all for the years here and still have ability to convert things.

Real have shown more than once throughout the season that they can win back, that is, they know how to get out of the most difficult situations, so I am inclined to believe that Real will win the Champions League final again. They've played in the Champions League final 17 times and won 14 of those matches, so you know how often they lose when it comes to the final. I told City or Real, whoever wins will most likely be the champion.

The possibility of the match extending to the extra time is still little because both teams from their past head to head meeting have clearly shown who is at a bigger advantage than the other. They have both come a long way to the final, so no one will be expecting less from one another, it’s just the facts and reality at hand that making one superior over the other. Real Madrid have the highest chances of winning this league but that does not guarantee them a easy path to it because Dortmund will try their best to stop them even though their best can be matched with Real Madrid’s prowess.  A lot of speculations have been going on the team that will win but realistically, until the match is played before the real winner will be ascertained even after all this statistics from both teams that clearly shows who will win the match.

unexpected things can arise when the final match between Dortmund vs Madrid occurs, for example, like the final match between Leverkusen vs Atalanta, many people predicted that Atalanta would lose but it turned out that they were wrong, in fact Atalanta was the winner, the final match will definitely take place very tight, Dortmund won't want to lose easily, even though Madrid is still the favorite to become champion, so this will be a really exciting match.

I don't think they need to change anything, Real Madrid are a really strong team and if anyone needs to change anything to win the final it's Borussia Dortmund. But I think this match will be the most intense for this team, but by no means the toughest in their history. Overall they have a chance to win, but seeing what Real Madrid are like this season those chances become objectively smaller

Don't use last 5 matches to judge Real Madrid performance to judge the final match between them and Dortmund, if I remember correctly Real Madrid has won the Laliga trophy and other matches aren't that too important for them Anymore and because some players has had injuries and weren't fit to play and switched them with other players that weren't too frequent in starting games, so you can see where the draw games came from right.

However, Dortmund is still using their players which will eventually play on that same Saturday, that makes them even vulnerable to loss. Real Madrid will come hard for them and since past years, even at worse of Real Madrid they beat Dortmund many times, this final match isn't exceptional as well.

We thought about how if Dortmund won then everyone would be astonished at the result, this is a plausible scenario but it was never accepted by many people of course they favored Real Madrid over Dortmund.

Of course, Real Madrid's strength in big Champions League finals still has an influence and look at how when they faced Bayern Munich, instead of falling, they burned mentally at the end of the match so we never doubted Real Madrid.

Maybe there are people who believe in unlucky where the ball hits the crossbar continuously, this can still be found in the gap the players will certainly be creative to find the goals they do.

An upset is always possible in football, and I will not be surprised if Borussia Dortmund beat Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League finals. Any club that qualifies for the UEFA Champions League finals will want to win the trophy because it is one of the most prestigious trophies in the world. Borussia Dortmund needs to be careful with Real Madrid and also be mindful of their defense to make it difficult for Real Madrid not to penetrate their defense easily. The UEFA Champions League finals will be interesting to watch because both teams play attacking football.

There is luck in football I can’t deny that, but as I go through Madrid’s records on final matches in the Champions League, I see that they have a very good percentage of winning the finals.

I know that Dortmund is preparing to the same thing Atalanta did against Leverkusen which is possible but I also think Madrid is also well prepared to avoid all these defeats.

I am expecting Madrid to win the finals but it will be a tough match for them because Dortmund will actually give them a tough time in the final.

This is a Champions League match where we have two teams against each other and yes Real Madrid may appear to be the strongest contender in the game but we should not right off their opponent Dortmund because in football the unexpected happenist times and in this game, I think the unexpected should be the only way that Dortmund will get victory against Real Madrid because Real Madrid does not have the experience but they have a better team and a better players rating them based on individual performance was perfect.

For now we are yet to have news of an injury in the two teams and since they have ended their league matches, they will continue to train to avoid injuries because they can't risk getting injuries ahead of the game. The game is going to be tough because the two teams will fight ill the very end but at the end a winner will emerge but for now I think we are not certain that a particular team Will lift the champions league trophy this season.

I do not dispute the fact that Real Madrid can actually lose against Dortmund and indeed luck has a place in football, we have seen so many types were a team literally dominate a match but in the fail to score while the opponent with just one opportunity they seal the game.

Though the chances of this happening to Real Madrid now is smaller than any other team to me now simply because if we observe this season we will notice that no player in the entire Real Madrid squad can be underestimated when it seems no hope again a player steps up as tge game changer and that's how they even made it to the final.

No matter how tight dormund defense they will still penetrate and that fear that they are playing against real Madrid will be their. And they will definitely  look pressured than playing calm. That is what playing with the best comes with and if Madrid don't score during the first half then  sure they would have analyzed everything during the first half then second half they can know which side they will penetrate from. First half might be shaky for both of them but that second half will be the though one. If you want to analyze this game you will consider the clubs that Dortmund have played against and the ones Madrid have played against then you will get an answer. I don't think it will get to penalty shootout the game will finish on goals.



We admit that Dortmund is good but when it comes to experience Madrid as more and will know decisions to make in other for them to be able to defeat Dortmund. And even if they score an early goal you can not judge the outcome by an early goal because anything can happen with that period of time. Everyone is wait for the finals but deciding who is going to win now can only be judged by speculate. Because don't be surprised that with all the support for Madrid you will end up seen Dortmund win the trophy. Anything can happen in football and that is why when you're placing bet you don't allow your self to be moved emotionally. Just follow your heart and don't follow people. Because you can end up been surprised.

I personally believe Real Madrid will dominate thematch by having high ball possession and thus, of course, Real Madrid will continue to attack and have high goal attempts. But yes, if Real Madrid make a mistake then of course it is still possible for Dortmund to make a counterattack to score first. If so, then ofcourse Dortmund will play more defensively when Dortmund have won the score, for example 1-0. But indeed,of course, if Dortmund make a mistake, it will also be well utilized by Real Madrid. So, although Dortmund will play defensively, but at least there is no guarantee thatDortmund will be able to hold Real Madrid to a draw during the match.

No matter how "easy" Dortmund looks, it's still the final game and that means one bad play, one mistake, and suddenly Dortmund is ahead, and in that situation we could see Dortmund just close down and park the bus, which would mean that we are going to end up with something much more different.

It doesn't mean that Dortmund will win, but it is always scary to have one game, when you are playing at quarter finals or semi finals you know that even if you play bad just for one game, then on the second leg you will play better and win, but when it's finals there is no recovery, if you do something bad then you need to fix it within the game. That is why I believe that we are going to end up with something much harder at the moment.
