    @FBarber

    Spoiler alert!!!!!! Great match today...the opening 15 minutes were nerve racking...

    The final is set: Bayern Munich vs PSG
    Final matchup | Goals | BA

    Bayern Munich over PSG 3 goals Roy_Hobbs
    Bayern Munich over PSG 4 goals jvgoor3786
    Bayern Munich over PSG 5 goals WunderLlama

    I assume if tied at regulation (e.g. 1-1) that the winning score is recorded as 2-1 which would equate to 3 goals and so on.

    Bayern were wide open at the back those first 15 minutes, then settled down considerably after Gnabry's opening goal (which was a great goal)

    Correct.

    T'was a stressful first 15 minutes or so ... could have easily been 2-0 Lyon. And that first Gnabry was just gorgeous. One more to go!

    Was super annoyed I couldn't find the game on TV or online. I watched updates on ESPN. Ended up about what I expected, but apparently it was closer than it seemed.

    Had to listen in Spanish to see the match. Regardless of the final outcome , the winning coach will speak German

    I didn't play because soccer is not my thing. Hockey has been keeping me occupied though!

    Never having done a LIF, what does the winner get?
    What do the losers have to send?

    Winner gets a small box of beer from me as person running the LIF. Losers get nothing. And traditionally, the winner of the LIF starts their own LIF next.

    LIF stands for Lottery It Forward. The person running it sets their own rules, and people guess. You don't owe anything if you don't win.

    You could start one now, if you wanted to!

    You forgot the little known codicil that the most handsome person participating from the state of Indiana also gets a small box.

    I don’t make the rules, I just enforce them.

    That would require a handsome person from IN - didn't know we had one of those?

    Thank you @beertunes ...getting into the swing of BIF and LIF. I don't want much....I simply want Bayern to win the Champions league final with a total of 5 goals in the match. That will get them the crown and me the opportunity to run a LIF!
