Can't see it going to penalties, although I have nothing against them as contrary to popular opinion penalty shootout is anything but a lottery. While pens after a scoring draw would be the best outcome for a neutral like me, I believe it goes similarily to 2009 final - 2:0 for Barca.

Decent game,crazy season for Barcelona.I'm happy for Suarez,it took some time but he's back to his best and the move away from Liverpool was a good one,Instanbul miracle is so far.Juventus fought well as always.I'm sad for Tevez,the only reason i supported Juve but maybe he'll get the glory next season at PSG.

I didn't watch the game, but when I caught glimpses of it as I entered various establishments around London, it didn't feel to me like having much value.
Barcelona had won the comp 3 times in the last 9 years, they had better players in almost every position, they already did the treble 3 years ago with half of the same players, they win the league every year. Just another title for the same superteam that destroys everything in its path.

The utterly wonderful John Oliver nailing the FIFA story on his HBO show. Seriously, this is not to be missed, though you my need a tissue to dab at your eyes.

Russia, Qatar might lose their World Cups: paper
Source: Reuters
ZURICH (Reuters) - Russia and Qatar could be stripped of their World Cup hosting rights if evidence emerges of bribery in the bidding process, the independent chairman of FIFA's audit and compliance committee told a Swiss newspaper.
The FBI's investigation of bribery and corruption at FIFA includes scrutiny of how soccer's governing body awarded World Cup hosting rights to Russia and Qatar, a U.S. law enforcement official told Reuters this week.
Domenico Scala told SonntagsZeitung that FIFA the two countries could lose the hosting rights should evidence emerge of bribery in the bidding process.
"If evidence should emerge that the awards to Qatar and Russia only came about thanks to bought votes, then the awards could be invalidated," Scala said in an interview published on Sunday. "This evidence has not yet been brought forth."

Re:
A tale of two halves. I thought Germany was going to run the US out of the stadium. After the US tied the game, it was as if the roles were reversed.
Both goals were awesome. Bradley gave Dix a great ball to finish.
