Not really surprise with Barcelona have eliminated early because last season facing the same problem can't reach to knock out group after failure in the same group with Bayern Munich and Benfica success lead to next round. Again not lucky for Barcelona in this season have the same group with Bayern and Inter Milan, loss head to head from Inter have almost close chance to qualify on next round. Two weeks later match between Inter vs Victoria Plzen is another helped for Barcelona if Inter fail to win but Barcelona need to win from Bayern.

Not easy hope at other games actually with Plzen have bad record in Champion League loss in four games, I think could focus on domestic league for Barcelona because can't talk more at champion league exactly in group stage.

Indeed it's a fact they will fail if Inter Milan win the match against Viktoria Plzen there is no denying that Barcelona's expectations are not too met despite having brought in several players including Lewandowski and Rafinda as strikers who are always proud of it but they are more difficult in the Champions League and in the end will be defeated too.

There are other rumors that I know but this is not necessarily true, if Xavi fails to win the match in El Clasico and Champions League with Bayern Munich then Xavi will be threatened as his coach, but in my opinion it is not sure to happen because in LaLiga Xavi has proven that Barcelona are at their best it's just that in the Champions League the less fortunate.

Barcelona - Inter game was really surprising for all of us of course. I was pretty confident about Barcelona to dominate this game and defeat Inter for maintaining their chance to qualify from the group. However we didn't watch such performance from Barcelona in defense. They were again vulnerable to Inter's dangerous attacks and conceded goals easily. Inter even got ahead two times in the game and they were so close to scoring their 4th goal in the last moments. They wasted two crucial chances there. One of them was an absolute goal chance wasted by Asllani.

I really don't know what's going on with this team when it comes to the Champions League. Because they are way better in the La Liga normally. They have no option to care less about the Champions League as it is important for fixing their financial condition as well. In case they drop down to the Europa League again I don't think they'd care about that tourney. Because the La Liga title will be the most important achievement for them as of then.

Coinciding with the match between Barcelona vs Inter for me maybe the result will be quite thin, as in the first match. But Bayern Munuch must be much more exciting in scoring more goals.

Some of the results of yesterday's matches such as PSG, Madrid, Man City, and Dormund looked bored because they did not meet the expectations of most fans. Except for Chelsea, who performed brilliantly with a maximum score of repelling AC Milan in front of Ibrahim Movic, who could only sit in a chair.

Yes, it's indeed a breath of fresh air that Graham has brought to Chelsea and making Todd not regret signing the ex Brighton coach on. No doubt his pattern has given the blues hope that they can stand a chance to enter the round of 16 but what's most important is can he lead them to lifting the trophy like Tuchel did is the question.

Barcelona's meeting against Inter Milan on matchday four of the Champions League will be crucial. Barcelona needs to win the game at Camp Nou to maintain their chances of making it to the Round of 16 in the tournament. Because it will be really difficult if you lose or draw. They lose the head-to-head matchup vs Inter if the points are equal.

Barcelona fell to Inter Milan 1-0 last week in a thrilling encounter played at the San Siro. Barcelona's standing in Group C is complicated by these results as they are currently in third place with three points.

What will transpire during game at Camp Nou?

New Zealand is a strong team and in my opinion New Zealand can win in next match tomorrow . I don't think Pakistan can beat New Zealand in tomorrow's match . I see New Zealand's chances of winning as real.  Let's see what actually happens tomorrow

Bangladesh team losing their quality and going down day by day in all formats which is surely a big concern for them with this performance mot chances they could be more down as most of the batting is having not positive development just because of these bowlers are also unable to perform better they need big surgery which done good changes, and they could be able to bring few quality batsmen from their domestic setup if they want to survive here in current cricketing world.

BCB is surely doing not enough work for their system and bring good quality player which is also not positive for the game and their team even they have enough cricket to play but still quality is major concern for them.

I guess Pakistan will win this match like the last match. Against New Zealand, we saw the performance of Pakistani bowlers was very good. And the Pakistani bowlers were quite successful against Bangladesh as well. But Pakistan's batting line-up is not very strong. Pakistan's batting is still completely dependent on the performances of Babar Azam and Rizwan. If these two players can play well then the Pakistan team will not have much problem defeating New Zealand. But if these two players do not play well, it will be very difficult for Pakistan to win.

Why is arsenal not considered as title contenders, they are doing great right now, but when you talk about them, we talk about how they would qualify for the champions League next season but not them winning the premier League, I think that's because of Manchester City,but what arsenal played against Liverpool you will know that they are not joking,they outplayed Liverpool from Start to finish, even when their goals are being equalise they still keep going and don't want to take draw for an answer.

I can't deny, I felt a lot of emotion when CR7 was going to enter, at first I was very angry that Ten Hag didn't put him in the team again, I felt powerless and in part to me Everton is a team that doesn't seem bad to me, It seems to me that they play very well and also there is Salomón Rondón, which they put him in last and I think that Lampard is somewhat capricious with the South Americans, however it has been shown that capricious coaches do badly.

Nor can I ignore the fact that I would not go for Everton, because I like how the "stake.com" looks on the shirt, and yes, I was going for Everton, but at the moment that CR7 everything changed, especially when I saw the assistance that Casemiro himself gave to CR7, for me CR7 had the right speed, he didn't have to run faster, they weren't going to catch him either, and the way he hit the ball fascinated me, he looked very subtle with technique and elegance, I knew that "El Bicho" was back.


I can't deny that the game between Arsenal and Liverpool was very, very exciting, it made my Sunday very fruitful and made it very enjoyable for me, of course ARSENAL's goals were on another level, I can't deny that I didn't like it when they served to Mo Salah, for me it was a bad decision by Klop, a star does not deserve to be removed from such an important match, a star must do his job until the end, however I give all the credit to Arsenal, most of the bets were on favor to Liverpool, and I think the ARSENAL players were so connected to each other that they made Liverpool look like they were playing in a final.


You're absolutely right, when I saw that they took the ball from Casemiro I said to myself "It can't be" Casemiro is the starter and that's what happens! In the same way, Casmiro has a very high morale, he managed to remain calm and gave great assistance to CR7, that was something that erased the first mistake, thank God this time things went well for CR7 and Casemiro, at one point I he reminded when they were playing in Real Madrid, I think that those ties they made in Madrid moved him to that game, both CR7 and Casemiro have really taught Ten Hag a tremendous lesson, I don't know if he put them in out of desperation or out of pressure, but that's how you show people when they're wrong.

Casemiro showed what he brings to Manchester United in two seconds vs Everton

I hope that things continue to go very well for Man United, let's see if Ten Hag manages to come to his senses, we all have the right to make mistakes, but also to correct mistakes, we have to wait and see what the Dutchman comes up with later.

The Live match between Almería and Rayo Vallecano seems unexpected because so far Almería has been able to lead the match by getting 2 goals from Srđan Babić and Lucas Robertone, the match is still quite long and hopefully Almería can maintain their position and add more goals to show their strength actually.

Because Inter Milan will certainly appear with more mature preparation after their victory in the first round. Their strategy succeeded in stopping every attack that was built by Barcelona. And in this match they will do the same. Depending on what Barcelona play, if they can break down the defense that Inter Milan is building then they will be able to win. but if they play like the previous game then it will be difficult for them to win. Learning from the previous game, they lost their way in attack and possession was wasted.

Pakistan have won the match by 6 wickets and 10 balls left. In recent T20 matches played by Pakistan, Babar Azam or Mohammad Rizwan used to take responsibility and do the best. Today it was Babar Azam who leads the team towards victory with his scoring of 79 runs out of 53 balls. New Zealand wasn't that good in batting as well as bowling. At the beginning New Zealand made a maiden over and later nothing helped them as strong partnership got developed.

Arsenal and man city will have opposite games in this round man city will have an easy one against southampton, they are a huge favourite against an opponent in a terrible shape so they will easily win on the otherhand arsenal team will face liverpool even thought liverpool are not as strong as last season they still are a threat and in my opinion it is likely to see another leader.

Manchester United will face Everton this week, last week's defeat in the Manchester Derby made a deep disappointment to lose by a landslide score. But they were able to bounce back in the Europa League in their last match with a win. And this week they will restore their confidence by winning this game at Everton, although it's difficult but I'm sure they will.

Looking on group stage have possible for Argentina vs Brazil on final match but depending each national countries can pass from group stage until reach final stage? Several World Cup edition European team always dominance on final stage begin 2006 until 2018 with European national country become the winner and runner up except on 2014 edition have Argentina success reach until final and defeated by Germany on final. I choose France from European country will dominance and success in FIFA World Cup 2022 because they have many talented player and manage not difficult to choose player composition, have many alternative with several player available on the same position.

Seems I can't see dream European final between Germany vs France because both team will play early between 16 round or 8 round if can success lead from group stage.

PSG lost points against Benfica. Benfica is not a weak team. They have a strong squad. And Benfica is at the top of the Primeira League table. I do not consider it disrespectful to share points with such a team. But since PSG is fighting for the title. Their goal is the Champions League title. So we want to see a better performance from PSG. If they do not come with consistency of their performance, it is not possible to win the Champions League title. Because almost every team in the Champions League is strong. Without consistency in performance, it is almost impossible to beat these teams.

Chelsea's chances of winning against Wolves are very good but I think it must be risky for gamblers because sports books don't want to give them high odds. Chelsea have been in good form in their last few match including the last one against Milan, Chelsea won 3-0 at home.

Chelsea are also playing at home in their upcoming match against Wolves, so they should take advantage of that to take full points at the end of the match. If Brighton lose to tottenham, then Chelsea will be in the top 4 this week, but they must first confirm the victory. The difference of 1 point from Brighton will of course put Brighton in high pressure, especially Tottenham are also a strong opponent for them.

It's not a good strategy if you only secure 1 goal while on the other hand, Real Madrid will also collect goals against Getafe. Definitely not an option for Barcelona to just play without more points. Either way, Xavi must maximize every opportunity that exists. Because if not a thin difference makes Real Madrid feel benefited. Regarding the Mallorca match when Barcelona only entered 1 goal but after that, the game looked boring. Here Xavi will not relax before moving away from the pursuit of Madrid.

Yesterday night, I was watching Madrid's match, and I became depressed when the penalty was missed. As a result, Barca takes over the top spot. The two teams haven't met yet this season, so Barca and Madrid have yet to play each other. It doesn't mean Barcelona will win the league this season just because they're top of the La Liga table. Due to the large number of matches, there is too much hype, and they should work harder to maintain it. It is El Clásico between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid that we are waiting for.

From all the weather reports that I've seen, the temperatures in Qatar for the World Cup will be up to 25-30 degrees C, not too hot. Also in terms of minimum temperatures, something like 15-20 degrees C, so overall it seems that the weather conditions are not going to be too bad.

Specially considering that many European countries have been having extreme heat waves now at 40+ degs.

I think it's true for both, Manchester City were too strong in the game last night and Manchester United were too bad in the game so this is a lesson for Ten Hag to keep mentally prepared for this super strong opponent.
So Mancity did an impressive maximum in this Derby match, I think this is when Mancity seems to be dominating the EPL this season with a really good win.

conceding 6 goals was a heavy blow for Ten Hag, of course in the future more extras will be prepared in the readiness of players so that many conceded goals do not happen again, the defense is also not performing well I think this needs to be evaluated for Man United.
