The Bavarian giants knocked out French side Lyon to advance to the Champions League final in Madrid in May. Bayern won in comfortable fashion, winning 3-0. A hat-trick from Ivica Olic secured their plane tickets for the final, though they go to the final without one of their superstars Franck Ribery, after UEFA handed the 27-year-old a three-match ban for his first leg semi-final sending off. A statement released from the Bayern camp said "We can't justify this ruling in any way and consider it completely wrong". That said Bayern are looking to appeal the three-match ban for Ribery.

To me Bayern seem to be the team to beat having already knocked out Manchester United, though they will either face Inter or Barcelona and will seem to be the underdogs compared to Inter/Barcelona. They have been brilliantly coached Louis vaan Gaal with each game they play they seem to be improving showing more cohesion within the team. So do you think they can win the final without Ribery? Only time will tell come May at Madrid
