Who will win the Champions League final, and why?

And if you really want to go deeper... how do you see the game playing out?

For those who do not know, it is:

Liverpool FC (England) vs. AC Milan (Italy)

I've got AC Milan winning it 2-1 in added time... with Pirlo scoring the winner on a set piece.

Shots on Goal -- Milan 13, Liverpool 9
Possession -- Milan 52%, Liverpool 48%

Goals:
Liverpool: Gerrard, 13'
Milan: Crespo, 88' ; Pirlo, 104'

Of course, if Milan get an early lead, will they play Italy Ball and just play keep-away?

I'm going to say Liverpool; they want it more than AC Milan.

New England Patriots -- of course.

Actually, I'd say AC Milan. But I'd love to see Liverpool win.

Milan, if not all hell will break out in Liverpool over whether Everton or Liverpool deserve the fourth English Champions League place. The FA has contradicted itself so far, so nothing is too clear.

Liverpool :) And If Liverpool clinches it, they'll get to keep the trophy.

Who ever scores first is going to win it. I predict a very boring game. One time scores then falls into super defence.

score 1-0 AC Milan

Crespo 30 min

I think Milan will be too strong for Liverpool, unfortunately. Even Chelsea would've found it tough against the Italians, but the performance of PSV in the semi-final to almost force extra time should give the Scousers hope.
