London today has officially become another state of Germany with over 100,000 German football fans from both Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund preparing to compete against each other to win the title of best football club in Europe in the Champions League final at Wembley.

Tickets for the game have been sold for £14,000 each in some cases, with many German fans arriving in London with no ticket.  Black market tickets were found near Wembley for between £2,000 and £5,000 per ticket.

"I have come here from Munich and cannot find any tickets but the atmosphere is great", Jurgen Schnieder a Bayern Munich said.

Hotels in central London are fully booked with many reporting bumper bookings from German fans.  Black cab drivers, are also reporting great business around town because of the influx of German fans.

The game kicks off at Wembley at 7:45pm UK time.
