Live bar January 13 , 2012 Champions League final Bayern played at home against Chelsea, ultimately failing to lift the cup after a penalty shootout. Bayern star Schweinsteiger described the defeat and his penalty as the darkest moment of his life.
The penalty shootout was 3-3 when Schweinsteiger came on, and as Bayern's last player to make a free throw, he kicked the ball into the right corner of the goal but was blocked by the opposing goalkeeper Cech towards the goalpost, and then Drogba's successful penalty point sealed Chelsea's victory in the Champions League final.
In an interview with the German media "Die Zeitweek", Schweinsteiger is still grumpy about this mistake. Schweinsteiger said bluntly: "The Champions League final we lost at home to Chelsea with Bayern in 2012 was the darkest moment of my life. The biggest mistake of my life was that I should have kicked that penalty to the left against Chelsea. In private training, I always hit the bullseye. A year later, Bayern beat Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League final to achieve the treble.
