Goals from Arjen Robben (49', that's him, celebrating), Gerard Pique (OG-72'), and Thomas Muller (76') enabled Bayern Munich to dominate Barcelona 3-0 in game two of their UEFA Champions League semifinal series on Wednesday as the newly-crowned German Bundesliga champions finished their two-match demolition of the Catalans 7-0 on aggregate.
Bayern will take on fellow Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League final (Bayern's third appearance in four years; Dortmund's first since 1997) at Wembley Stadium in London on Saturday, May 25, with the winner heading to December's FIFA Club World Cup, to take place in Morocco. For Bayern, it will be their tenth appearance in the European/UEFA Champions League final. They have won it four times (1974-76, 2001) while Dortmund won it in their lone appearance, in 1997.
