This wasn't the final I was hoping for either. Single nation finals tend to be less interesting anyway.

I'm also not staying home for this one. I last missed the all Italian final a few years ago (Milan - Juventus, was it?) and by all accounts that was a massive borefest.

But even Chelsea - United and the previous version of the current final two years ago were barely worth watching.

I admit that not caring who wins does take an awful lot of excitement out of the game, and with teams from two different countries it's a lot easier to have your sympathies engaged.

At least Liverpool prevented an all Spanish UEFA cup final as well. That would have been two finals I could skip this year and I have no idea when that last happened.
