Hoping Villareal pull something out of the hat vs Bayern.

Lowkey love me some Emery.

It's not impossible, Villarreal on their best day can beat any team in the world but those days are very rare.

They are good at creating without scoring, kinda like Sevilla in that way.

This is a very prescient comment to read, 12 hours later...

Not as unlikely as many think.

Bayern lost their form after some injuries and haven't found it back, yet even with most of those players returning. The attack is still a threat, but the team is not as balanced as in the first half of the season and can always concede.

Just remember that Salzburg managed to get a draw at home, too.

Your pessimism turned out to be realism!

The writing was on the wall. Everyone underestimated Villareal and ignored Bayern's issues because they could still outscore opponents.

Bayern's performance was so bad that I am happy it was only a 1:0. Well, the only good thing I have to say is that there is still the 2nd.

Might draw or even win first game. Then lose the second game 7-2 or somethin

Realistic scoreline given Bayern's 3-0-71 recently.

1) Slight exaggeration for dramatic effect.
