42 minutes have elapsed and the result is still 1-1 for chelsea vs bournemouth. The problem that has been facing by chelsea is still the same. It doesn't have good chemistry at this moment. I just wanna say that if medueke was good in dribbling but he was so greedy. He doesn't even wanna pass the ball to the teammates. I could see if Chelsea were playing the game individually. Bournemouth has better team work. Im very disappointed to see how medueke was playing in this match.
He has been losing his trust to his teammates. Chelsea's attack was always being concentrated on medueke. Mudryk is also very often losing the duel. I don't even know what problem that has been facing by chelsea but the club is playing so badly right now.
The first half is ending now. I see that if there shall be some evaluations for lampard in the changing room especially for meduke and mudryk. Chelsea's wingers were not performing satisfactorily in this match.

Real Madrid is very good and known team in Copa del Rey and they have won a series of Italian league recently. So I think Real Madrid is a strong enough team.  And they always try to play well.  Real Madrid is far behind Barcelona in La Liga.  But I think they will play well here. Osasuna is a good team it is believable.  However, they are not believed to be able to cope with Real Madrid. So I think Real Madrid will win this match of Copa del Rey

This one is definitely the most important game for both teams because the gap between Lens and Marseille is just one point and each team can have the chance to take second place in the league today, in the other hand they even can have the chance to reach PSG in top of the table if PSG loses some points, in the last game they had Lens won the game with 1-0 result, but I think Marseille can have more chance to win this game.

Well its no new thing that the both teams have been under performing but unlike Liverpool, Chelsea had to go through a lot of new transition and changes while Liverpool on the other hand had been the same with their manager and same old players, they only had to amend to the absence of their main man sadio mane which took them longer than was expected. Chelsea had to  lose ownership to another person which has also contributed this to failure of theirs.

In my opinion, even though Marseille is favored to win this match, seeing that their opponent is Auxerre, I was hesitant to place a bet and in the end I missed this bet. But congratulations for your bet, maybe the unexpected thing for me is that Auxerre can beat Marseille with a narrow score of 0-1 because we know Auxerre is an underdog but often makes it difficult for top teams. An additional three points for Marseille made their distance to PSG even closer and only 5 points different. I think Marseille could have replaced PSG, if PSG continued to be inconsistent like yesterday's match and often received defeats.

Why is the world cup in Qatar the best in history? Do you have a specific reason why you think so?
If you think the World Cup in Qatar was the best because of the money made, then you are probably right, but football should not only be focused on finance and money.
Football is first of all emotion, joy, happiness, sadness, pleasure... everything that makes football so special.
On that side, for me, the best world cups, from those I remember, were 1986 in Mexico, 1990 in Italy, 2002 in South Korea and Japan and 2014 in Brazil.
As the Mastercard commercial reads, emotions can't be bought with money 

This tournament will be a different one from the last one, Manchester City having Haaland this season will be different outcome from last season champions league.  Manchester City are the favourite likely to win champions league this season, Manchester city are capable of producing more goals.

Now it's Bayern Munich's turn to lead the standings again. It seems that the games of these two rivals can also be bad for some matches, not always performing well. Nevertheless, their position can still remain on top, while Dortmund, who have lost many points and are far behind Munich, must win consecutive matches again to avoid being overtaken by their opponent who is only five points behind, Union Berlin.

His current condition is still good, it's just that this is becoming inconvenient when looking at Lazio's performance in their last 2 matches.
Losing to Torino and Inter in 2 games in a row makes it difficult for Lazio because regardless of anything the loss of 6 points makes it difficult for them now.
The odds are still high in the Champions League for them but of course there needs to be real action now so they can get the points back in this regard. the problem was that their opponents in the next few matches would be troublesome. Sassuolo is below them but of course we know that on several occasions they have always done something to surprise big clubs, on the other hand there is still Milan who really still have the desire to return to the Champions League position which is still lining up as their opponent.

Even though in fact they can quickly do that, it's just that in the last few matches it hasn't gone well for Napoli.
Starting from Osimhen's absence which made it difficult for them with several matches, now they have lost momentum even though Osimhen is there but they are still having difficulties because from the start his condition was troublesome after losing goal productivity there which made this very bad.
But in any case, they will still get the champion.

Yes I think you described it quite well. Arsenal didn't really have a chance against Manchester City and on a perfect day Haaland doesn't score once, but three or four goals given the chances he had against Arsenal. You could say that the 4-1 didn't even reflect how the game went.

But in that game I think De Bruyne made the difference. I like him a lot as a player but also a normal guy who is very down to earth and shows great character on the pitch. But what he has shown again this game is that he is a true sniper. Both goals were harder than it actually looked. In my opinion he has been one of the best midfielders ever. His efficiency is outstanding and the work load he performs is also top in almost every single game.

Low odds is not guarantee will win the match easily and i have seen this before for Bayern that the bookie provided low odds for Bayern several times and the latest is when they met Hoffenheim few weeks ago but unfortunately Bayern were unable to win at that time and today too there is no doubt Hertha Berlin could be easy opponent for Bayern and if they can able to performing well i think Hertha Berlin will not makes them get in trouble

But indeed Bayern has lost their consistency under Tuchel but i think the fans should be blame the management why hire Tuchel as the replacement of Nagelsmann and Bundesliga almost reach to end of season and there is no more room for mistakes and today is good opportunities to taking over first position after Dortmund slipped so Bayern players should be considers this match such as final match

No, it's not a fair result for Rome. Roma have struggled very much but they are forced to share points with Milan. This draw will certainly threaten Roma's position to drop to sixth if Inter are able to win over Lazio. I'm really very upset to see Roma players who failed to maintain that advantage. They are like amateur players who don't understand the goal of the game. Even though with very little time remaining, they must be able to manage the tempo and not let the ball enter the area of the defense area. But you can see and judge how the return goal from Milan happened.

it is difficult to predict between Milan and Inter while these two teams have similarities in recent performance but for me it is not Inter who will qualify for the finals but Milan who will qualify for the finals.
although many say that Inter Milan is much better this season than Milan, but I just can't doubt that Milan has pocketed more experience than Inter Milan. even though in the last few leagues maybe Milan didn't perform well but they seemed to be saving their strength to compete in the UCL.

I dominate choosing Milan over Inter.

If we refer to the available odds, the two teams have the potential to overthrow each other. even before, I thought that Strasbourg would win this fight. it's just that, I'm reluctant to take risks, because their opponent is Lyon. so, I chose the option to bet on over 2.5 goals. fortunately, the game ended with a score of 1-2.

But if I refer to the statistics of these two teams, Strasbourg actually gave quite a fierce resistance. in fact they had the lead first in the 15th minute, but Lyon was able to equalize and turn things around to be a win for them. noted, Strasbourg looked to dominate the game, especially in the second half. they even have more opportunities than Lyon. Strasbourg has 3 big chances, 2 big chances missed. Meanwhile, Lyon only has 1 big chance. however Lyon had 4 shots on target. With this result, Strasbourg's position is threatened with being shifted by the team below it if they win the match. for Lyon, they managed to get back to winning ways. for me, lucky not to bet on Strasbourg but prefer over 2.5 goals.

Too many people look at the possible winner of Juventus-Sevilla game and not a lot of attention is shown to Roma-Leverkusen game. The winner of that series will be in the finals as well and potentially have just a single game to win it all, so anything could happen. I agree that Juventus or Sevilla will be the favourites at the final game but just because they are favourites doesn't mean they will win it, we have seen plenty of favourites lose at the finals before and the same thing could happen this year as well.

This is why I highly suggest that people should look at the other matchup as well. I think Roma will win it at home, and Leverkusen will win at home too, and the process will come down to goal difference between both games to decide who will go up.

Finally team have winning mentality is the winner and Manchester City show their potential become the winning of Primer League tittle in this season, Arsenal have good performance in this season but many loss points on crucial match exactly after beating by Manchester City on last game. But Arsenal have been compete team for Manchester City winning Primer League this season after many big four team from Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea have bad performance in this season. Indeed later loss compete with Primer League tittle race but Arsenal success back to Champion League competition for next season after absent last several years.

Supposedly, Dortmund was able to overthrow Bochum in last night's match. Too bad they missed so many opportunities. recorded, Dortmund controlled the game with 67% ball possession, 22 total shots, 7 shots on target, 9 shots off target, 6 shots blocked. it's a shame, of the many opportunities, only one could they convert into a goal. To be honest, I was quite annoyed at Adeyemi last night, he had many chances to score. however, every opportunity he has, can not be used properly.

On the other hand, the goal scored by Bochum was purely the fault of the Dortmund players. they gave up space, so Antony Losilla was able to use it very well and scored a goal. luckily, not long after, Adeyemi was able to equalize. I think Dortmund will win this fight. however, the show grew dull in the second half. as a result, both teams must share the same 1 point.

Tomorrow, Bayern Munich will host against Hertha Berlin. on paper, this fight should be easy for them to win. However, let's just wait for the two teams to fight.

As a Gunners fan, I had predicted this would happen. but, nevertheless I still support my favorite team. unfortunately in this match, Arteta really lost tactics. In addition, several Arsenal back line players could not be played due to injury. so, it's only natural that the Gunners fall by City. after all, City played in front of their own supporters.

Before, as said. the absence of several defensive line players is very crucial for Arsenal. plus, I see the lack of metallity of the Gunners' young squad. one more, since Trossard is back to being a second tier player, and G.Jesus is back to being a starter. this is where the starting point is there is a change in the game. I'm not saying G.Jesus played badly, because, since Trossard has been a centre-forward. Arsenal's game is more creative, every rotation, transition, is done with a fast system. Trossard can play in various positions, it's a shame Arteta prefers G.Jesus to be the main starter again. or at least, Martinelli can be backed up, it could also be when Saka plays badly. however, Arteta was always late in making decisions. and after that, Arsenal suffered minor results and were knocked out by City. now, it looks like the Premier League trophy is starting to side with City. as an Arsenal fan, I have to be realistic that City are better.

It will be an easy match for lyon.




Bookies were favoring strasbourg. I think that it can be a trap. LYON might lose against strasbourg but remember that if lyon has consistent performance before. Strasbourg was getting two wins in a row. that makes bookies having faith in strasbourg but i will still try to pick lyon.

The different in the current standing has been proving how big the gap between LYON compared with strasbourg at this moment.
it's very hard for me to pick strasbourg as this team is also one of the inconsistent team in the league 1.

Stras may lose full points against LYON very soon.

If you think that if locals ignore stadium attendance that will change something, then you have never experienced any hosting a world cup Locals dont go to stadium in general. Foreigners are the one who fill stadium most. Country does not earn much from selling tickets. They earn from selling intellectual rights to air event (plus earn huge from advertising contracts). Locals rent their apartments for sky rocketed prices. Country get a huge recognition and popularity. Country earns from tourists not only during world cup. Business receives new and additional investments. But all those facilities, infrastructures, stadiums in the end are waste of money. Spending money on building them never pays off.
