Tonight’s the night when Bayern meet Dortmund in the Champions League final at Wembley in north London, where the big match will be witnessed by an 86,000 crowd. Millions more around the globe will follow the action on TV.
But the hype and hullabaloo surrounding the clash will mean nothing to the FCB stars as they go through their normal routines in the hours prior to kick-off. “It’ll be business as usual,” insisted Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, while captain Philipp Lahm confirmed the plan would be “the same as ever. But obviously, there’ll be more tension and excitement than before any other normal match.” fcbayern.de reports on the club’s matchday schedule.
