No sh*t. But X did happen so Y did happen and using that as a means of taking away credit from BVB is ######ed.

Also, Malaga couldn't hold off Dortmunds final onslaught, while Dortmund on the other hand, did handle Reals.
I was responding to Bagor's point that the refs were the only reason that Dortmund were there and pointed out that Malaga not playing for the last part of the game was also a huge reason.

I am not saying Dortmund shouldn't have been there, just saying that Malaga had a big role (likely bigger than the refs) in Dortmund being where they are.

And it was Malaga folding not some sort of great final onslaught by Dortmund.
