Home advantage


Why was the champions league final played at the Bernabéu and not at neutral ground? It could be perceived that Real won due to home advantage.

i noticed that aswell but i wasn't sure if it was just me that noticed it.

the only reason i can think of is that some of the footage is from when arsenal beat real madrid at the bernabeu in the champions league a few seasons back, and maybe they have just added there own footage to make it look like real madrid won the game.

if that is indeed the reason then am soarly disappointed

that's what it was, it was taken from the season when Arsenal lost in the final with Barcelona, from the game when Henry scored the only goal, goal which is shown in the movie. Lame

Because the stadium for the Champions League finale is choosen before the season begins.

So nobody knows who will play in the final. If Real would not have been in the final they would have played in Madrid, too.

Didn't Liverpool beat Roma at the Olympic Stadium in Rome in 1984?

Yes they did, as someone above mentioned they pick the stadium way in advance so it can sometimes happen that teams play at home in the final.
