UEFA Champions League Final 2013
Overview
An exciting all-German final as Bayern München take on Borussia Dortmund.
The UEFA Champions League Final is the most prestigious event in European club football. Chelsea are the current holders of the trophy, but who will triumph in 2013?
This is the seventh time that Wembley Stadium has hosted the final since 1963, and this year is particularly special because it is the 150th anniversary year of The Football Association.
Note that the match is subject to extra time and penalties if the score is a draw at full time. This means that the match could last up to two hours and 50 minutes after kick-off, if extra time and penalties are required.
