The German team, Bayern Munich, win on penalties at the Bernabeu

After extra time, with the aggregate score level at 3-3 and both teams having one away goal, it is no surprise to see a German side win on penalties, even in the magnificent Bernabeu against the Galaticos.  Real Madrid thought it was going to be their year to win the Champions League.  Cristiano Ronaldo really believed it, but the resolute Bayern Munich team had other ideas.  Ronaldo scored two goals this evening, but he failed to score in the penalty shoot out. Sebastian Schweinsteiger scored the winning penalty to knock out mighty Madrid.  The Special One, Jose Mourinho, was hoping to achieve a record of three Champions League wins with three different clubs.  He had already won with Porto and Inter Milan.  But a win with Real Madrid in 2012 against his old club, Chelsea, was not to be.
