It's nothing surprising to see people are hoping Dortmund to beat Real Madrid because they're The Culers lol. Real footballers know that Real Madrid is the strongest team and Champions League is like their playground, while Dortmund is very rarely can enter to final Champions League, they're new in this league.

The European League where Atalanta pull an upset against Leverkusen because Leverkusen is new in Europa League, this is different with Real Madrid.

However, Dortmund should not be underestimated because in the final match anything is possible and every team that has managed to advance to the final is of course the best team and is ready to face this match.
Real Madrid does have a good mentality and they are also nicknamed the kings of the UCL, but I think their journey will not be easy to win their 15th UCL title.

We have seen many times in the past that underdog teams have surprised everyone by winning the Champions League. No one can predict that Dortmund will qualify for the Champions League final this season. Dortmund were never favorites for the Champions League. Even then, the team managed to qualify for the finals.

Real Madrid is an experienced team, and coach Ancelotti is also very experienced. Ancelotti will certainly not underestimate the Dortmund team. Ancelotti is well aware that Madrid have a high chance of defeat if they take Dortmund lightly. So there is no doubt that Madrid will play to win. If Madrid can find the weaknesses in Dortmund's defense then I'd say Madrid will win this year's Champions League title as well.

Yes, no football fan would accept that Borussia Dortmund would make it to this year's UEFA Champions League finals, but they surprised everyone by setting up a final with Real Madrid. Real Madrid's coach knows that for Borussia Dortmund to make it to the finals, they can win against Real Madrid if they are not careful playing against Borussia Dortmund. I can see hungry players in Borussia Dortmund who want to make history when nobody expects them to do it, just like what Manchester United players did against Manchester City in the FA Cup finals.
