Indeed, Iran's victory against Japan was beyond many people's expectations, especially in that match, Japan was very favored because the Japanese players were clearly superior to Iran. but that's football, sometimes the team that is not favored in a match actually wins. If Iran vs South Korea is in the final, it is clear that South Korea is the favorite team, especially since South Korea's performance is very good and in terms of quality, South Korean players are far superior to Iran.

Tomorrow is the Jordan vs South Korea match, a match where we are all sure that South Korea will win this match. If this prediction is correct, and there are no surprises of course, then South Korea will have a big chance of winning the Asian Cup this time.

Iran is a country that often wins the Asian Cup, Bahrain will face a difficult opponent now. Hopefully Bahrain can win this match, so in the Final there will be an opportunity for Bahrain to make history as a champion in the Asian Cup.
I hope that the final will bring together South Korea vs Iran, I think that is the ideal final. On paper, Son and his colleagues could easily finish the semifinals and beat Jordan. Their previous reputation makes me believe Korea can do it, and so can Iran. I was quite surprised when they were able to beat Japan, where I thought many bettors were wrong in their calculations. I predict that Korea will emerge as the winner of the Asian Cup this time, which does not mean underestimating other teams. In my opinion, Korea has the best golden generation in their football history, consisting of players who are members of several top European clubs. I won't miss those two semi finals tomorrow, it's worth the wait.

Well in fact, Liverpool seems like they are doing pretty well without him, but i think that stats are a little bit not really related to the reality, when you face a big or important match is where you need the big player who show the face in that kind of games, and in that Liverpool still cant replace him, just look yesterday, they lose against Arsenal and they dont do a good game.
It is understandable that without Salah Liverpool would have difficulty creating many opportunities, but in the Europa League it looks like the Reds will not have any difficulties. We know that when the round of 16 starts again, it is very likely that Salah will be available again in the starting XI, which will make Klopp calmer with the presence of his favorite player in the lineup. Their latest defeat to Arsenal was surprising, because they lost in front of their own fans, and the fact is that the Reds have better statistics than Arsenal in the EPL. Looking further into the future, where Klopp will part ways at the end of the season, of course the Europa League will be very memorable if he can win it, as a farewell trophy to this legendary manager. Liverpool players will certainly be motivated to do so, we'll see how Klopp journey ends this season.

I look at it from the other side and in my opinion Bayern's performance has dropped enough at the moment so I'm a little worried about them.
However, to get past the round of 16, I think it will not be difficult for Bayern, they will face Lazio and Lazio's performance this season is also not that impressive so Bayern has the opportunity to face or get through the round of 16 of the Champions League this season without any significant difficulties.

Bayern Munich has struggled against smaller teams in the past, so there is no free lunch for them in the Champions League and you can see this in the Bundesliga too. It is not as if they wouldn't have any problems winning all their games. They actually have quite some difficulties recently and they concede goals every now and then. I think in the Champions League Lazio can still be a different team than they are in Serie A. If Lazio can score a goal in Munich, this is not going to be fun for Bayern to turn the game around as Lazio does understand quite well how to defend and protect that lead.

Of course Bayern is the favorite, but this is what Lazio wants them to think. Lazio has nothing to lose in this matchup and they are hoping for Bayern to play sloppily.
Bayern Munchen unstable performance in the Bundesliga makes us a little doubtful about them in the Champions League, the pressure they are under at domestic level this season is very different from previous seasons. Their chances in the UCL are actually still the same, and Tuchel fleet is still one of the favorite teams along with Man City and Real Madrid. Of course, the UCL journey is more difficult than in the Bundesliga, and they must be able to show a performance like in the group phase to be able to continue to progress and talk a lot. I think the meeting with Lazio is quite easy to finish, I'm sure Bayern can get past the round of 16.

As the season progresses, it is possible that Bayern will be more consistent in the Bundesliga, so we have no doubts about their ability to go further in the UCL. Next week Bayern will face their tough rival at domestic level, this could be a reference to see how good their strength is in overcoming other challenges in the UCL.

Practically Lyon just got lucky and the luck has helped pulled them out of the relegation not like they are a good team or anything they just probably got lucky and did defend their luck till the end of the game because it was Avery important they get such point to help them get the needed push out of relegation and probably hope to still be in the Ligue 1 by the end of the season.

Marseille was my favorite in that game, although they were playing from home, I still didn't see it as a weakness or as a reason to loose because placing both teams side by side I found out that Marseille had a better form, depth and even performance so far them Lyon but the. As the incident of football do happen, not all the times the best team do win, sometimes the weak team gets lucky and then the best team end up sharing points or loosing it all to the weak team, this had almost no effect on Marseille so there's almost no big deal in it but it was a saver for Lyon.
In the midst of Lyon slumping performance, they again broke some of the predictions of Ligue 1 football fans, they had already done it when they beat Monaco in the first half of the season. Now Lyon has managed to create another surprise by beating Marseille, which we know has a better reputation than Lyon. To be honest, this can give a signal that everything is possible, predictions are just predictions. An additional 3 points saved Lyon from the red zone, and the future target is to stay away from the degradation zone. Luckily for Lyon because Metz, Lorient and Clermont are much worse than them, it gives Lyon a chance to stay in Ligue 1 next season.

Previously, I wasn't really sure that Lyon would be able to beat Marseille, because after creating 3 consecutive wins, they lost again in the next two matches. This latest victory should be used as a turning point in performance, to chase more points when facing average clubs, that is the best scenario to survive in Ligue 1.

Teams like Leverkusen will usually experience difficulties when entering the second half of the season. Because teams with unpopular players usually have difficulty rotating their players to maintain game consistency. But what Leverkusen did was extraordinary. They are able to become an unbeatable team this season. Munich is still chasing points. I think the meeting of the two teams will determine who will be champion at the end of the season. Of course this will be a big pressure for Munich because they are the ones who are required to win.
Leverkusen is quite aware that they don't have very popular players in the current squad, but this certainly won't be a serious problem for them as long as the coach is able to manage it well enough. Apart from that, Leverkusen can still make very specific priorities this season regarding what trophies they will fight for. So the focus can be further enlarged in that direction because this season Leverkusen will also have another busy schedule when the European League starts again this month.

Bayer Leverkusen will still play in the Europa League and also, Bayern Munich will still play in the Champions League . Therefore, basically these two teams still have busy schedules and therefore, even though in fact Bayern Munich is still in second place in the Bundesliga standings. But yes, because Bayer Leverkusen get draws quite often, then Bayern Munich will still have a chance to take over the top position because after all, at this moment their points gap is very cose about 2 points different. Therefore, Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich still need to win in every match, of course to maintain their position in the Bundesliga standings better to get a better chance of getting the trophy.
For neutral Bundesliga fans, they definitely hope that Leverkusen can win the trophy this season, so that the Bundesliga looks more competitive. We know that the second half of the season leaves 14 matches ahead, where Leverkusen toughest opponent is Bayern Munchen, next week will be a test of the toughness of both teams. I think a draw is good enough to maintain Leverkusen trophy ambitions, and indeed Bayern opportunity to overtake first place is still quite open. If Leverkusen can finish next week match without defeat, then I predict they can end the season by successfully winning the Bundesliga trophy.

Leverkusen has drawn quite often this season even though they have never been defeated, unfortunately Beyern also experienced something worse, where they drew 2 times and lost 2 times. The statistical picture is not that important, because the team focus is on the remaining matches in the future, who can survive under increasingly heavy pressure. Xabi Alonso has a thorough understanding of the competition for the Bundesliga trophy, because he has experience when he was still actively playing with Bayern. This is a valuable asset for him when polishing a squad that can withstand the pressure put on him by Bayern.

In the end, Inter Milan was too tough for the other Serie A contestants this season. After successfully beating Juventus, Inzaghi fleet will most likely go it alone in the hunt for the Scudetto in the future. I think no other team can stem Inter ambitions in the remaining half of the second season. The point gap with Juventus will widen if Inter completes the postponed match against Atalanta. On paper Inter can finish it by securing full points, it is possible that the point gap will be 7 in the future. Apart from the own goal, it must be admitted that Inter is indeed a little better and luckier this season.

Next week there is a test that is no less interesting, where Inter will face Roma, De Rossi wants to get a stage in that match. I'm sure Inter can get through it too, and as I said at the start, Inter already have a 70% chance of winning the Scudetto this season, and they will run alone in the standings until the end of the season.

Real Madrid may be leading the league table, but I doubt they are quite satisfied with the late-game tie.
They had already won this game, but their defense was unable to hold up to the pressure from the Atletico Madrid team, and they drew the match with late late-minute goal. 

There are still games for the Laliga League to play before the season is up, and every victory counts. Still, a draw point is preferable to nothing at all. Real Madrid needs more wins to be able to keep up with leading the Laliga table.

This is a disappointment, first of all, because it turns out that this season Real beat Atlético once and lost to them twice. It’s unpleasant considering that they can meet again in the Champions League.
As for the situation in La Liga, the last round, despite the draw, was in Real's favor since the competitors remained at the same distance as before, and the number of games until the end of the tournament decreased.
I agree with what you said, Madrid must look forward and maintain the point difference they have created with Girona. There is nothing to regret too much, completing the remaining matches in the second half of the season and beating the other contestants is enough to deliver Los Blancos to the trophy. ATM never gave up even though they were under heavy pressure from Madrid since the whistle blew, their defense line was very solid and made it difficult for Los Blancos to increase their number of goals. Conceding in the final minutes when focused on attacking is normal, although disappointing, but sharing points is not a bad thing at all.

Girona should be grateful for the Madrid vs ATM draw, because the point difference did not become wider, only 2 points adrift which allowed them to overtake Madrid in one match. On paper, we believe that this season Madrid will win the trophy more easily, because only Girona is pressing them seriously. ATM and Barcelona are struggling to do so, both are a little behind this season in the trophy hunt, but I'm confident they can finish in the top four of the standings.

Chelsea were a huge disappointment this week... The score was like 1-4 against Wolves at some point. Chelsea got 1-0 ahead first and I have no idea how they ended up with a result like 2-4 later on.  Sad

They conceded 8 goals in their last 2 league games. This is just horrible defending. Pochettino's seat must be under danger these days. I mean I don't think this is mainly his fault. I don't want to unsee the real reason. Since Abramovich left this team haven't been in good shape. I don't think Boehly is the right person to manage this team. Chelsea deserve a much better chairman for themselves.
We very often see complaints from Chelsea fans who say that, if Abramovich was still leading the team, Pochettino would not have become a manager this far. It is very difficult to explain Chelsea situation this season, we no longer know where their real mistakes lie, what can make the club stable and not lose points again. Pochettino clearly has a series of young players whose prices are super expensive, but whose quality is very far from standard, yes standard to compete for trophies or at least to lock up one ticket to appear in the UCL next season.

The latest defeat against Wolves was incomprehensible, losing at Stamford Bridge by a 4 goal margin was a disaster. Apart from their defense line being very porous, Chelsea front line is also very problematic, the strikers they have are far from expectations. It's not surprising that the Blues are now an average club, because nothing has changed after they finished in 12th place last season, this season seems to be going the same way too.

REAL Madrid v ATLETICO MADRID
It is still 1 - 0, Real Madrid is still ahead right now.
Real Madrid seems more dominating the match and control it very well. They are offensive enough. But so far, only 1 goal is created between the two. Well, both are trying their best in this match, both also have strong defense so that it is not easy to make and shot on target successfully.
With this  kind of situation, I think that Real Madrid will be still leading and able to win this match if they don't make any mistake. After all, the match was very tight and Atletico Madrid also put up a strong opponent so far.
With the remaining time available, it looks like Madrid will increase their lead and secure the three points, ATM is still relying on defensive schemes and counter attacks. Los Blancos seem to really dominate and dictate the course of the match, so far Ancelotti has only rotated Brahim Diaz with Joselu and Rodrygo with Modric. On the ATM side, Simeone has rotated his five players, but so far it has not been effective in turning the situation into a draw. I feel that with the pattern currently being implemented, it will be difficult for ATM to turn things around. The match has entered the 80th minute, Madrid is still leading with a score of 1-0 at the moment.

Pertama tentang permainan judi slot, saya merasakan hal tersebut dan secara pribadi sering bergaul dengan mereka yang kecanduan judi slot. Jika saya tidak keliru, peningkatan permainan judi slot meningkat drastis setelah era Covid 19, entah ada kaitannya atau tidak, yang jelas saya merasakan hal tersebut. Saya tentu terkejut dengan label yang di berikan, Indonesia dengan jumlah penduduk yang tinggi menjadi ladang yang bagus untuk pebisnis judi Online.

Kedua terkait kasus Korupsi, saya sudah sangat bosan dengan isu yang satu ini, hampir di setiap Pemilu isu ini selalu menjadi bahan gorengan para Politisi. Untuk menarik minat dan pendukung Politisi selalu menjual kalimat anti korupsi, nyatanya banyak sekali kasus yang menjerat pera pejabat tinggi Negara. Pak Jokowi sendiri sebelum menjabat pernah berjanji akan menumpaskan Korupsi, malah KPK nya kini yang melakukannya sendiri, aneh sekali Negeri ini.

Ketiga terkait kasus Bullying, saya pribadi sangat merasa sedih ketika membaca berita tentang kasus ini, merasakan bagaimana lingkungan pendidikan berjalan seperti ini, harus ada solusi dari pihak sekolah untuk menumpaskannya. Memang tidak hanya terjadi di sekolah saja, itu bisa terjadi juga di luar sekolah. Sorotan negatif pada dunia pendidikan kita memanng sangat wajar, kualitas pendidikan kita sangat rendah, itulah mengapa banyak sekali pengangguran di Negara ini.

Sangat disayangkan, jika kata-kata tersebut terucap dari mulut seorang putra dari sang proklamator sekaligus salah satu tokoh pendiri bangsa ini. Sebuah perktaanyang cukup menyayat hari dan bisa saja menimbulkan sebuah kebencian dari beberapa kelompok, terlebih lagi para pendukung dan relawan jokowi. Tetapi jika kita menilik kebelakang, tentunya pernytaan tersebut terucap bukan tanpa sebab, akan tetapi ada beberap faktor yang melatar belakangi akian pernyataan tersebut, yang diantaranya yaitu perubahan arah sikap politik pakjokowi yanglebih condong pada paslon dengan nomor urut 02 dan adanya beberapa percobaan penjegalan yang dilakukan oeh pak jokowi dalam beberapa perjalan kampanye pasangan Ganjar-Mahfud. Belum lagi ditambah dengan sikap membangkang jokowi terhadap partai yang telah ikut membesarkannya dan mengantarkannya menjadi seorang presiden, yang walaupun sebagian orang berpendapat bahw tanpa PDIP pun pak jokowi tetap besar. Tetapi dengan pembangkangan tersebut, hal ini berhasil membersihkan dirinya dari sebuah tudiangan dan pandangan yang menyebutkan bahwa dirinya itu adalah seorang boneka partai. dan lebih menariknya lagi, disaat ibu mega meminta bahwa dalam kabinet Indonesia maju itu harus lebih banyak di isi oleh kader-kader partai PDIP, Jokowi justru melakukan langkah sebaliknya yaitu dengan menarik 22 mentri berasal dari non-parpol.


Menarik apa yang anda sampaikan, dinamika politik akan terus berjalan dengan latar belakang yang sudah di rencanakan jauh hari sebelumnya. Bagi PDIP Pak Jokowi adalah seorang pengkhianat, mereka merasakan kesakitan setelah di tinggal, dan mereka akan terus mengungkit apa yang sudah di berikan. Tidak hanya untuk Pak Jokowi saja sebenarnya, untuk anak dan menantunya juga, bisa di mengerti pernyataan Guntur Sokarno adalah reaksi atas pengkhiatan Politik saat ini. Apa boleh buat, kepentingan akan menuntut banyak hal, sebagai Presiden mungkin Pak Jokowi melihat masa depan Indonesia dengan cara berbeda, jelas informasi yang di dapatkan oleh seorang Presiden jauh lebih baik ketimbang Ketua Partai dan anggotanya. Jika di ingat, memang banyak sekali perlakuan yang tidak masuk akal yang di lakukan oleh PDIP terhadap Pak Jokowi, seperti pernyataan petugas Partai yang menurut saya sangat tidak pantas. Secara pribadi saya tidak memiliki kepentingan apapun untuk membela Pak Jokowi, namun sebagai masyarakat biasa yang memandang politik ini sebagai wadah yang sarat kepentingan, dinamika yang terjadi adalah sebuah hal yang sudah terencana jauh sebelumnya.

If you are an Arsenal fan, try to stay calm. Arsenal's game today looks more convincing than Liverpool's, so I don't think they will drop points in this match. Arsenal just need to be patient and improve their ability in finishing, I mean they missed too many chances even though they were big chances.

Great outing by Arsenal today both the first half and the second half, were stunning performances by the club. Bukayo Saka did the wonderful opening in the beginning of the match making in more stronger for Arsenal to strike, even more.

Winning this match is a big victory for Arsenal because of many reasons, but to mention a few is because it has closed the gap between both teams as Arsenal is the second club to Liverpool who are leading in the table standing right now.

 Secondly, is because in the first leg, Arsenal was able to beat Liverpool and now they have repeated that again in beating Liverpool for the second time.

This only shows that Arsenal is more stronger than Liverpool as far as the games that have been played are concerned and the season of Premier League is concerned

The aspect I also have issue with is the finishing of Arsenal and that's why I would have wished that Arsenal have the likes of Victor Osimhen or Kylian Mbappé or the kind of players that can do the finishing for them. It will go a long way in assisting Bukayo Saka and others to make more goals for the team.

I've always respected Trossard because he has been putting every effort to always make sure that he secures as a goal for Arsenal at every chance he got.

Lastly, is to show kudos to the manager, Arteta for being confident in battling with such a leading team and making sure that they win over the club with an additional red card on their visitors.
I agree with you about Arsenal as a whole, I'm just wondering why Liverpool are so lackluster today, am I the only one who sees that. Of course, many predictions were broken because Arsenal were able to beat Liverpool at Anfield, because I myself previously predicted that the Reds would be able to secure full points, in reality now it is all wrong. Arteta is really focused on bringing his team into tight competition in the hunt for trophies, now Arsenal will be very dangerous for Liverpool and Man City in the future.

Liverpool defeat today indirectly provides a big opportunity for Man City to lead the standings, they will face an easy opponent, namely Brentford. Apart from that, Pep Guardiola squad also still has one match postponed, which is very beneficial for them in their efforts to take over the top of the standings. To be honest, I didn't expect Arsenal to be so aggressive today, if they continue to show performance like today they have a big chance of winning a trophy at the end of the season.

As expected, Leipzig managed to win against Union Berlin and this result made them feel the victory they had longed for again. Union Berlin was unable to overcome every Leipzig attack and the goal had to be willing to concede 2 goals. There is nothing that Union Berlin can do other than defeat and they must be ready next week with the target of winning. If they don't win, Union Berlin will fall back into the relegation zone.
There is hope for Union Berlin to stay away from the relegation zone and secure full points, in the middle of this week they will face Mainz to finish their postponed match. We know that Mainz is worse than Union Berlin, and that is the best opportunity that should be taken advantage of, of course there is not much we can be proud of about Union Berlin this season, last season they played so well that they managed to reach the Champions League, this season is very different for them.

Their latest defeat against Leipzig is very understandable, because Leipzig has been much better than Union Berlin this season, even though we know they just breaking a bad trend in the last three matches. An additional three points for Leipzig are very meaningful to get back into the top four of the standings, and snatch it from Dortmund, now the two are only one point apart, Dortmund should be careful about this threat.

Jadon Sancho might not be able to be permanent at Dortmund according to rumours. But I don't know about this. I think it must be depending on his performance in the remaining part of the season. If he manages to impress Dortmund officials and the manager then I think Dortmund would prefer keeping him longer.

His market value has already gone down to 25 million euros. I don't think Manchester United would demand a lot of money.
If Ten Hag is still Man United manager next season I don't see Sancho future at Old Trafford. I am sure that Dortmund will be interested in making Sancho status permanent and giving him a second chance to show his skills, and when Sancho returns to his best form, Dortmund management will benefit because usually they will release their best assets. The addition of Sancho to Edin Terzic starting XI was very helpful, Sancho is a player who can be relied on to help Dortmund finish in the top four of the standings this season.

On the other hand, i feel that Sancho, who is still very young, will definitely be interested in a lot of clubs, before he was willing to move to Dortmund, Juventus was reportedly interested in recruiting him. However, what is clear is that I am quite sure that Sancho will not return to Man United when the season ends, because Ten Hag will likely continue to be the head coach, and Sancho will definitely be ignored by Ten Hag again if he returns.

The rate of teams dropping and qualifying still maintains stable equity. Last season was different, this season is new and we expects the very best from these UCL clubs. Manchester City denied Inter Milan the UEFA Champions trophy and this season comes with more expectations from other potential clubs. Inter Milan should be voted for potential clubs to lift the UCL trophy this season. Inter Milan performance are consider to be in good position, Simeone Inzaghi doing what is expected of him because he tends to be the top coach that doesn't relent in actions for his team.
I agree, Inter Milan are a force to be reckoned with in the Champions League title race this season. Overall if we compare their performance last season and this season, then I would say this season they look better and also more prepared. In Serie A, this season they have only tasted 1 defeat and in the Champions League their performance is also good, although they have to be in second place, but they only lost in goal productivity to Real Sociedad.
Last season, no one wanted to be in the final match, because many thought the match would be unbalanced or Inter Milan was not an ideal opponent for Manchester City. But this season they have shown great improvement.
The tough competition in the Champions League is a surprise from the teams that are not favorites. When we focus on the more experienced teams here such as Madrid, City and Bayern, we sometimes simply ignore teams like Inter Milan. It could be that this season they will repeat the history of last season, until they are able to enter the final round, there are only two teams in the final and they don't have to be filled by the favorite team, that the logical picture. It's not just Inter who can surprise, Arsenal and PSG also have good bargaining power, because they have good squad depth, both are also equally good at domestic level, I mean they are still on track to compete for trophies.

History, reputation and other statistics are useless when luck is not on their side, there are many other factors that influence each team chances of winning trophies such as player injuries. There is also another possibility, where each contestant can show a different performance from their domestic competition. Overall, Inter should deserve to be on the list of favorite teams this season, because their performance is indeed better than last season.

Leverkusen and Bayern Munich both have left this week behind by getting comfortable wins which was the expected.  Smiley

Next time we are going to have a huge and very important game between these two teams in the league. It is one of the most critical games for these teams in terms of the league title. Leverkusen have a home advantage here. You know they played really well at Allianz Arena before and stole one point. If they managed to win home this time the gap will be 5 points which would be a huge advantage. But rather than betting on a side to win I would prefer both teams to score as an ideal option.  Smiley
Bayer Leverkusen grabbed stunning performance and their end result was winning while Bayern Munich also accumulated three points. Next week, we witnessed the big game of the Bundesliga season, Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich, who's winning? Already placing my wager from today because the odds are significant, I'm looking forward to watch Munich break the streak unbeaten record  of Leverkusen. It's a goal-goal game because Munich wouldn't sit down and allow Leverkusen keep cleansheet and also Leverkusen will not relent and allow Munich do the exact same thing.
The time has come for the most decisive match in the race for the trophy, where Leverkusen will host its greatest enemy, Bayern Munchen. The match is very difficult to predict, betting on one of them is very risky, I will agree with the option that both teams can score. Xabi and his fleet will be tested to their limits by Bayern, to what extent they can maintain their unbeaten record this season. If Leverkusen is able to finish the match undefeated, then in my opinion they have the opportunity to create an unbeaten record throughout the season in the Bundesliga.

Even though Bayern have experienced several surprising defeats this season, they still have a high chance of achieving this victory, because on paper the squad depth they have is more even than Leverkusen. In this match, there is an opportunity to overtake Leverkusen, if they fail then Bayern will certainly fail to maintain their dominance, their record will be broken this season. Next, Kane will be the unluckiest player, because he still hasn't been able to win the domestic trophy, exactly the same as when he was still playing at Tottenham.

Yes, AC Milan management must realize that their team needs to refresh the squad, especially in the back row. In fact, it is very clear that their weakest points have begun to appear in several lines, making it very difficult for them to compete this season. Giroud still has great abilities even though he has reached old age, but his contribution to the team is still very big. However, talking about Scudetto opportunities, I think it will be difficult for them because their performance is not very consistent. Realistically, Milan only needs to target finishing in the top four zone.
And what is most worrying about AC Milan is that their back line is becoming easier for opposing attacks to penetrate. I agree that AC Milan must start revamping their squad better in the next transfer market. I also agree that AC Milan's current condition will probably only keep them in 3rd or 4th place. But in terms of fighting for the title, I think this season it will only be between Juventus and Inter Milan. Because only Inter Milan and Juventus have so far been able to look consistent. AC Milan this season also has important matches in the European League. Maybe Milan will fight hard there. But in Serie A, I think just getting a Champions League ticket is enough for Milan this season with their current abilities.
At the start of their campaign this season, Milan looked promising to be able to compete and challenge for the title, but along the way they lost a lot of points, especially when facing other big teams. Automatically, the trophy competition only forms two axes between Inter Milan and Juventus, Pioli seems worthy of being replaced to create freshness in the team, even though he was able to make Milan finish in the top four of the standings when the season ended, he is not the person who can bring Milan to victory. another trophy this season. It's true that Milan are very porous in defense, they concede very easily, and that was proven in their last match against Frosinone.

I think Milan should overhaul their squad as a whole, and recruit players of better quality, their signings last summer were quite good. If Conte is officially appointed as Pioli successor next season, I feel Milan will be able to challenge the Scudetto and be able to talk a lot in the UCL, this season Milan can only finish in the top four of the standings without being able to win any trophies at domestic level, maybe in Europa League Pioli can do miracles.

Basically Real Sociedad and Girona are very evenly matched and a draw is fair for both teams.
This result is quite profitable for Real Madrid to be able to get further away from Girona's pursuit at the top of the La Liga standings.


For Girona, this draw could be a difficult moment, because now Real can increase their lead to 4 points, of course, if they can beat Atletico today. In any case, it will not be easy for Girona to compete with Real, even if Real today cannot beat Atletico, and they by the way, are in very good shape. Sociedad, played very well, they did what they know how to do very well, they played well in defense and that was enough.
If Madrid loses for the second time to ATM in La Liga like in the first leg, then that will be very difficult to accept because Girona will have another chance to compete for the trophy. The competition for the top four in the standings will get tighter as the season progresses, ATM also wants to increase the number of points when they visit Santiago Bernabeu. On paper, Los Blancos are the favorites in this match, even though we know that several of their defensive players are still undergoing treatment, apart from that, Tchouameni is likely to be absent due to receiving a yellow card suspension.

Overall, I think this match will be fierce, both teams will definitely play aggressively considering the importance of 3 points. Ancelotti will try hard to experiment in determining the starting XI, as he did in the last Spanish Super Cup. Their rivalry this season is quite fierce because they beat each other in several competitions, but Madrid definitely wants to get their revenge in La Liga and don't want to be defeated in front of their own supporters. ATM actually has the expertise to be a stumbling block for Madrid, Simeone fleet has bargaining power to tackle Madrid who are trying to win the trophy this season.

I don't really understand what happens at some games in the Premier League as lots of goals are scored even from teams you don't expect that to happen.For example I cannot understand how can a team like Luton which is a weak team and does not score goals usually to score 4 in one game and against a strong team like Newcastle.I know that is the beauty of Premier League yet I am still shocked at a 4-4 result from Newcastle at home not being able to beat a small team like Luton.



Luton, which is currently in the relegation zone, is able to trouble the host whose players stars are full of new rich club  newcastle united. it's actually very hard to believe newcastle united playing at home is unable to pick up a victory even its defense is able to be broken down 4x by Luton, a team in the relegation zone.
In my opinion, this is a form of motivation for Luton who want to get out of the degradation zone. An additional point means their target has been realized and they are now in 16th place in the standings. Newcastle is indeed a club that has pretty good depth, conceding 4 goals in my opinion because they lost a lot of players, Newcastle is facing quite a serious injury storm this season. Newcastle performance is very understandable, If they had a complete squad maybe they could finish like last season.

Luton is ranked 16th thanks to the additional one point they obtained when facing Newcastle. their efforts to stay away from the degradation zone have paid off, and in the future they have the opportunity to get full points when facing an easier team, namely Sheffield United. It is very likely that luton will be able to survive in the EPL next season, They must try to achieve a draw when facing elite teams, and beat other mediocre teams.

PSG wasn't that good during the group stages without a doubt, it is not just about past years, you could say that they are "better" than past years if they played dominant football during this years group stages but they did not, they played quite badly this year as well. That was just a month or two ago, and now they are going to suddenly be good enough to win the whole thing?

I think PSG is good at where they are, at ligue one, that's it and they should be happy to have that again and again. They are not going to end up with anything like UCL, they are just not good enough. Bad thing about the situation is that they can't drop to Europa neither, so they never win anything at European competitions, they just go beyond the group stages, and lose there.
It could be that everything changes in their future journey, and PSG could become a team like Inter Milan last season which could reach the final, we know that PSG is not on the list of favorite teams for most football fans. Statistics and reputation can increase if luck is on their side, Enrique has an expensive squad in his hands that can increase their chances of achieving their goals. PSG could be a team like Bayern, who came to the UCL from an uncompetitive league but are favorites, to me that sounds very reasonable because Bayern has proven it.

In the group phase I consider PSG lucky, because being in the Hell group, it is not easy to face teams like Newcastle who play in the EPL, and Milan who have a long history in the UCL. When PSG qualified, it was their biggest luck of the season, I think Enrique has come out of the pressure after facing his most difficult period at PSG. In Ligue 1 PSG seems to be running alone, without any team that can match and give them resistance, they should be able to surprise everyone by doing the same thing in the UCL.
