Nightmare in Madrid as Super Robben breaks spainish hearts

It was meant to be the fairytale sendoff for one of Madrid's coaching legends, but things quickly turned into a nightmare with Bayern Munich defying all odds today in the Champions League Final in Madrid.

Firstly coming back from a 2 nil deficit and then 3-2 down with 4 minutes remaining, it was Robben who did the damage to score the winner in extra time to steal the Champions League trophy in ambush style.

Super Robben in fact scored 3 in todays final, in a match which will forever be marred by poor refereeing decisions - including atleast three clear penalty claims by Madrid in the extra time period.

"We are absolutely gutted today." JM could hardly speak after the game.
"My heart is broken. Not the way I wished to finish here. I am devastated"

In what is touted as JM's final game in charge of Real, it seemed a perfect send off with the champions League trophy the only one missing from the accomplished managers cabinet.

The fact the game was being played at Real Madrid's home, The Santiago Bernabeu, made things even more emotional given the final result.
