Jupp Heynckes expects "intense" Champions League final

Heynckes expects "intense" final

Bayern Munich manager Jupp Heynckes has claimed that Saturday's Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund will be "intense".

The two German sides meet at Wembley Stadium this weekend to battle it out for European club football's top prize.

"On the pitch, I think it'll be intense, that's obvious," Heynckes told reporters. "You expect that in a Champions League final.

"There'll be a quick pace, lots of one-on-one challenges, a lot of passing and both teams will be working hard to win."

Heynckes is looking to win the competition for the second time in his managerial career after success with Real Madrid in 1998.
