It could be a Ancelotti vs. Mourinho final for Champions League.
Both managers would be eager to prove their old club wrong

Ahh... the IB target has just appeared after missing in action for days....
Please lah, Mourinho, play some good football.
Park 2 buses again?? putting iin 6 defensive against A. Madrid.
So if Chelsea can go on to the final, how many buses you want to
park against R. Madrid??
Roman Abramovich never employ you to play this type of football.

Mourinho derides 'philosopher' critics

The Portuguese argues that those who complained about his side's tactics against Atletico Madrid and Liverpool would have had them play "stupid" football and lose
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has derided his critics, claiming that "philosophers" complaining about his side's defensive tactics would have had them play "stupidly" and lose.
Masterclasses at the back saw the Reds stifle Atletico Madrid 0-0 in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final before beating Premier League leaders Liverpool 2-0 on Sunday to maintain their slim title hopes.
Though some have argued that Chelsea have been playing 'anti-football', the Portuguese is adamant that he has been playing to the strengths of his squad.
Mourinho remarked dryly to the press: "You know, at this moment, football is full of philosophers - people who understand much more than me, people with fantastic theories and philosophies. It's amazing.
"But the reality is always the reality: A team that doesn't defend well or doesn't score lots of goals, if they concede lots of goals, is completely in trouble. A team without balance is not a team. When they have the ball, we have to try and stop them scoring. When we have the ball, we want to try and score. This is football - the football that I know.
"I remember saying in my first period here, if you have a goalkeeper like Petr Cech who puts the ball in the opponents' box and a striker like Didier Drogba who wins everything in the air, why play short? Because you are stupid?
"If your opponents are very fast on the counter and want space behind your defensive line, if you give them that space you are stupid."

Chelsea cannot afford to park the bus anymore. 1-1 draw is not good enough.
Just over 30mins to save the game.
Update: Chelsea 1 - 2 Atletico Madrid
Looks like Chelsea are on their way out of the Champions League.

Now they need 3. Chelsea have just crumbled like Man Utd did against Bayern Munich.

If the score line stays that way, the class of 92 will agree in unison that van Gaal is the right manager.

Well done to Gus Poyet and Sunderland. Fully deserved victory.
Bye bye Cardiff City, you and Vincent Tan fully deserve your relegation to the Championship.
