Celta vigo lost this match but we have to admit that the team performed well today . Celta vigo players were very confident even against a tough opponent like Barcelona. Especially their defense was strong.
Xavi has added Joao Felix, Gundogan and Cancelo to the team this season. And these three players performed very well in this match. They are easily able to adapt themselves to Xavi's match tactics. And able to consistently perform well. Xavi has been able to pick the right players for his squad. Although Xavi is not very experienced, he is an excellent coach. Barcelona's overall performance has greatly improved since Xavi was appointed as coach.
Xavi Hernandez is the master planner of the game, he have everything in control, winning is his priority and he will always achieved this results as far as he got the best performing players on the pitch. Barcelona victory was a great surprise to everyone, scoring 3 goals within 8 minutes, brilliant. While Los Celestes performance was incredible, having the best performance against the elite side but couldn't hold on to their glory. They relent towards injury time, though gave the blaugrana hard time, it was definitely an entertaining game to watch. Celta Vigo record dissapointing results in Estadi Olímpic Lluís.

The match was very entertaining. calta vigo was defeated despite a good performance . Celta vigo should have secured the win after going 2-0 up by playing completely defensively . After leading by 2-0 goals, they had no need to attackv. Celta Vigo lost this match due to tactical mistakes.  In just 8 minutes, Barcelona players scored 3 goals in jsut 8 minutes . Lewandowski is in great rytham. He scored 5 goals and 3 assists in 6 matches.  Barcelona's midfielders are also in good form. barcelona are now at the top of the points table. However  if Real Madrid win their next match against Atletico Madrid, Barcelona will lose the top spot in the table.

I don't imagine Barcelona will make a great comeback and win this match. Barcelona did not play very well in the first half. They were trailing 1-0. They had over 75% of ball possession but very little attacking. However, Barcelona conceded another goal in the 76th minute of the second half, falling behind 2-0, but it was unthinkable that Barcelona would win. Lewandowski scored back-to-back goals in the 81st and 85th minutes and Cancelo scored the third goal in the 89th minute to give Barcelona the win. Cancelo played great in this match. I think Barcelona have got a perfect defender.

In fact, Barcelona was the favorite in their home match, but Celta Vigo's really tight defense allowed Barcelona to create many chances in the first half. Barcelona struggled with short passes when penetrating the Celta Vigo defense, but at the same time the composition of players used in the first half was not very good.
I might have gotten a different impression had Xavi played Cancelo, Araujo, Kounde and Balde as starters in defence. Meanwhile Gundogan, Gavi and De Jong played as midfielders. Joao Felix, Lewandowski and Raphinha are likely to be better, but Torres isn't too bad on the right wing either. However, in fact the selection of players in this match was different even though in the end Xavi really made big changes and secured 3 points at home today.

Celta Vigo lost this match but we have to admit that the team performed well today. I have to say Celta Vigo players were very confident even against a tough opponent like Barcelona, especially their defense was strong.

You know Xavi has added Joao Felix, Gundogan and Cancelo to the team this season. And I can see all of these three players performed very well in this match. Seems they are easily able to adapt themselves to Xavi's match tactics, and able to consistently perform well. Its really good Xavi has been able to pick the right players for his squad. Although Xavi is not very experienced, he is an excellent coach. Barcelona's overall performance has greatly improved since Xavi was appointed as coach.

Barcelona played poorly in the first half and in fact, Barcelona was 0-2 down by Celta Vigo until finally Barcelona managed to make three quick goals in 10 minutes in the 81st to 89th minutes. Also, although Barcelona managed to win in this match but still, 0-2 down playing at home is definitely not a good result for Barcelona. So yes, because Xavi has also signed a new contract until 2025 then of course, Xavi should be able to make Barcelona even better and more consistent in every match ahead of course.
I can almost draw the conclusion that every time Xavi trusts Alonso to start, Barcelona's defensive performance looks weak. I didn't notice this about just one game, but there were many similar cases of this last season. I'm happy because in the end Barcelona managed to make an epic comeback in 10 minutes, but Xavi has to be wise enough in rotating his players if he doesn't want his team's performance to be disrupted.
Barcelona played well in the first half, but not with their defense. Celta Vigo, who had prepared their defense optimally to block all of Barcelona's attacks, managed to lead by 2 goals after 80 matches, but not in the last 10 minutes. Lewandowski scored 2 goals which means he equaled Bellingham's goal record, while Cancelo and Felix each scored 1 goal and 1 assist in today's epic win.

Wow!! I don't imagine Barcelona will make a great comeback and win this match. I shut down the screen when I saw Barcelona did not play very well in the first half. They were trailing 1-0, they had over 75% of ball possession but very little attacking. However Barcelona conceded another goal in the 76th minute of the second half, falling behind 2-0, but it was unthinkable that Barcelona would win. Lewandowski scored back-to-back goals in the 81st and 85th minutes and Cancelo scored the third goal in the 89th minute to give Barcelona the win. Cancelo played great in this match. I think Barcelona have got a perfect defender.

New Zealand managed to set a huge target of 255 runs. I would call it a big target on this pitch. Because the pitch is quite bowling friendly. The bowlers are doing very well on this pitch. After New Zealand lost 7 wickets for 187 runs, I think the team will lose all wickets in 210. But Sodhi like Jamieson batted very responsibly today. 255 runs is a good enough target if the bowlers are able to bowl controlled. But I am not sure if the New Zealand bowlers will do well. Their performance against England was very poor.
2nd odi New Zealand win by 86 run against Bangladesh. While batting first New Zealand scored 254 all out in 49.2 overs. Congratulations to New Zealand for their win first ODI win against Bangladesh in Bangladesh after 15 long years. While chasing down the target Bangladesh 168 all out  in 41.1 overs. Mahmudullah played a sensible innings of 49 runs in 76 balls and Tamim iqbal also played a good inning of 44 runs. The player of the match is Ish Sodhi for his all round performance picked up 6 wickets by giving 39 runs in 10 overs and also scored 35 runs in 39 balls. Ish Sodhu Maiden five-fer in ODIs and best bowling figures in ODI 6/39 in 10 overs. New Zealand is now lead the 3match series by 1-0 i hope Bangladesh will bounce back in 3rd and Final ODI match.

Bangladeshi bowlers bowled well in the beginning but could not continue the trend in the end. A collection of 254 runs on this pitch was good enough. Even then Bangladesh had a chance of winning. But as usual we saw very poor batting from Bangladeshi batsmen. Apart from the team's two senior batsmen, Tamim Iqbal and Mahmudullah Riyad, no other batsman can do well against New Zealand's bowlers. Tamim combined to collect 44 and Mahmudullah 49 runs.
Ish Sodhi bowled brilliantly today. He picked up 6 important wickets. Sodhi destroyed Bangladesh's top order. Also he gave only 39 runs in 10 overs.

Bangladesh vs New Zealand

After rain intercepted the play in the first ODI, New Zealand won the toss and elected to bat first in the second ODI. In 1st Odi New Zealand scored 136 runs in a loss of 5 wickets in 34 overs. Bangladesh are favourites to win this match but Rain spoiled the play. Tamim Iqbal and Mahmudullah are making a comeback for Bangladesh. The current score of New Zealand is 10 without losing any wickets in 2 overs. Finn Allen is playing aggressive cricket 10 runs unbeaten in just 5 balls. Bangladesh has quality fast bowlers and a good spin attack but they need early wickets and restrict New Zealand to under 250 runs then they have a good chance to win this match.
Today, Bangladesh bowled brilliantly from the start. Like the first match, Mustafizur Rahman bowled brilliantly today. So far Mustafizur Rahman has taken 2 wickets with 19 after bowling 5 overs. Bangladesh squad has been changed in today's match. Khaled Ahmed made his ODI debut today, picking up 1 wicket in the first over. Bangladesh's pace bowling is getting better today. So far New Zealand has scored 56 runs in 12 overs losing 3 wickets. Bangladesh will be far ahead to win the match today if they can get New Zealand all out before 250 runs.  Let's see how many runs New Zealand is able to give the target in the end.
Match looks quite interesting to watch and based on both teams performances in the second ODI I think Bangladesh performance better than New Zealand at this moment. New Zealand managed to score 106 run in 22 overs and losing 3 wickets. New Zealand is slowly moving ahead in the match. H. Nicholls and T. Blundell are currently at batting. H. Nicholls scored 38 runs in 51 ball and not out while T. Blundell also scored 37 run in 42 balls also not out. If this partnership continues for a long duration then New Zealand will successfully set a challenging target for Bangladesh team and also putting a lot of pressure on them.
New Zealand posted 254 runs in the loss of all wickets in 49.2 overs. A fighting knock from Tom Blundell comes to an end in 68 runs in 66 balls.I think Its a good total in this bowling support pitch. New Zealand.167 loss of 6 wickets in 34 overs after 254 runs tail-ender partnership between Ish Sodhu and Kyle Jamieson who scored 20 runs in 28 balls. Khaled Ahmed Bangladesh debt bowler bowled well picked 3 important wickets by giving 60 runs in 9.2 overs. Ish Sodhi was run out 17 runs at the non strikers end by Hasan Mahmud. The third umpire checked and gave OUT when Sodhi started walking out but Bangladesh skipper Litton Das and Hasan Mahmud called him back again. Sodhi hugged Hasan at the end and played a Crusial innings of 35 runs for New Zealand and helped him to cross 250 runs

New Zealand managed to set a huge target of 255 runs. I would call it a big target on this pitch. Because the pitch is quite bowling friendly. The bowlers are doing very well on this pitch. After New Zealand lost 7 wickets for 187 runs, I think the team will lose all wickets in 210. But Sodhi like Jamieson batted very responsibly today. 255 runs is a good enough target if the bowlers are able to bowl controlled. But I am not sure if the New Zealand bowlers will do well. Their performance against England was very poor.

It's true that Balogun is to blame in this match, he had two chances but failed both times, but apart from that, we also have to admit that the Nice team performed very well, this team has made quite significant progress in the last few matches and now they are even at the top of the standings. shifted Monaco because of the victory they achieved.
And this also proves that Nice is not only consistent but they are quite strong this season and Nice is one of the teams to watch out for this season to win the title.
Nice is currently leading and they are showing a better game at the moment. really surprising, while we can see that PSG and Marseille will also soon follow from the bottom. but the results of the next match between PSG and Marseille will also be unpredictable. but I hope they won't get a draw. because a draw would only make things more difficult for them. when Nice, Monaco, and Brest continued to show good performances.
The start of the season made PSG have to work hard to return to the top of the standings. But seeing Ligue 1 this season being more competitive than last season is quite exciting.

Nice's players are doing great this season. Nice also beat table-topping monaco in their last match after a win over psg . If nice can continue to perform like this, the top spot in the table will be in their hands..
The match in marseille vs psg will be very competitive.  The match is very important for PSg. The psg team is now in fifth place in the points table  . Even if they win this match, psg will move to third place in the table. On the other hand  if Marseille win this match, they will be in possession of the top or second place in the table. psg's dominance in Ligue 1 has not been seen this season . Several teams look set to fight for the title.

Bangladesh vs New Zealand

The second ODI match of the series against bangladesh is going to be held shortly. New zealand won the toss and elected to bat . New zealand's batsmen did not play well in the first match. New zealand lost top order batsmen very quickly. However  the match was abandoned due to rain . However  in the previous series against England too, we saw poor performances from New Zealand players. Such a poor performance before the World Cup is risky.

The match is also likely to be delayed today due to rain . It seems to me that the Bangladesh team is the favorite on the pitch of Bangladesh. Also this team has done quite well in the last two matches. My guess is Bangladesh will be able to win today if the match is not delayed due to rain.
Even in today's match, New Zealand could not start their innings well. They lost the wicket of Will Young early on. Young failed to collect any runs from 8 balls. Like the previous match, Mustafiz is bowling very well today.
If the Bangladeshi bowlers can do the same kind of performance today as they showed dominance in the first match, their chances of winning will definitely increase. Even then we cannot say for sure which team will win. Because the performance of Bangladeshi batsmen is very erratic. I have seen many times that the Bangladesh team failed to win despite batting at a low target.

Three of New Zealand's top order batsmen returned to the dressing room very quickly. Finn Allen, Will Young and Chad Bowes did not play well. New Zealand lost three important batsmen in the top order to collect only 36 runs. The team collected only 49 runs in 11 overs.

The pitch is bowling friendly, it means that if they are able to provide a target like 220, the New Zealand players will be able to control the match. But looking at their batting, it doesn't look like the team will be able to collect more than 200. Unless Henry Nicholls and Tom Blundell's partnership is prolonged, New Zealand's chances of a big collection are slim.

Also regarding the Al Nassr against Al Ahli match, I personally still quite confident that Al Nassr has a good chance of winning. Because of course, this is a good moment for Al Nassr to be closer to the top three, so of course Ronaldo and his teammates will make maximum efforts to get three points in this match.

both of them have quite good looks. AL Nassr tried to improve on a bad start, and now they are better with convincing goal productivity every game.
while AL Ahli will lose several players in the team due to cards in the match against AL Taawon. However, this will be a loss for AL Ahli but an advantage for AL Nassr.

This match will be interesting but I think AL Nassr will be slightly superior and get the win. The combination of Ronaldo and Mane is getting better, AL Nassr is in a good trend and they don't want to lose any more points because that will make them further away from the top of the standings.

This match is actually very important for Al Nassr. Because if they are able to win this match, they will be able to get ahead on the points table. Al Ahil is right ahead of Al Nassr. If Al Nassr is able to win this match, they will be ahead of Al Ahil in terms of goal difference. And let's not forget that Al Nassr has really great goal difference in this season so far. I personally think that Al Nassr will be able to win this match. And I hope we get to see another Siuuuu from the goat, Cristiano Ronaldo.

By the way, did you guys see the reaction of Cristiano Ronaldo when his heading goal was disallowed? Do you guys think this is actually real? I personally definitely think that the media is portraying Cristiano Ronaldo as some kind of villain and Lionel Messi as some kind of hero.

And let me just say this, no way that was actually a foul. The VAR must have been drinking while making that decision.

I also think that Romelu Lukaku's arrival at AS Roma could have a good impact on AS Roma itself, even though it is only on loan from Chelsea. This has been proven in the AS Roma vs FC Sheriff match where Romelu Lukaku was able to score a goal in the second half to bring AS Roma to victory in the group stage of the Europa League this season. So there is an opportunity for AS Roma to fight for a trophy in the European League again in addition to a trophy in Serie A which is also very possible for AS Roma.
The journey to the Europa League final is still very long and there are still many matches waiting for these teams. Roma will certainly get a good impact from Lukaku's arrival, but in my opinion Lukaku will never again reach his peak performance as a striker even though he can have good goal statistics.

I know he suits Serie A, so I wouldn't be surprised if Lukaku could score 10 goals or more this season with Roma. However, I don't think Roma can return to the final this season if they are not able to maintain consistent performance in every match. In fact, there are many good teams in the Europa League this season, including several teams that will be eliminated from the Champions League.

One should not expect too much from Lukaku. I don't think Lukaku can score more than 10-15 goals in a season in Serie A.  But if he adapts well to Mourinho's match strategy, maybe we will see a better performance from Lukaku. But it is less likely. But I think Mourinho should not put too much expectation on Lukaku. Mourinho is well aware of the capabilities of the players in his squad.

Roma will be looking to win the Europa League title this season. The team played very well in the last season as well. Roma have the potential and ability to do well in the Europa League if Mourinho can stabilize the squad, strengthen the bonds between the players.

The next match for Getafe is against Real Sociedad, we know Getafe had a good performance so far, mostly because they had a good start with a draw against Barcelona if the first week of this season, but the game against Real Sociedad can't be easily for them. However, Real Sociedad had only one win if this season and this shows us that betting on Getafe for this game is not a bad idea considering the rates.


My prediction is that this will still be a match with a winning result for Real Sociedad, even though Getafe looks in better condition than Sociedad, but Real Sociedad is unbeaten this season at home.
Getafe will face difficulties in being able to steal points from this home team, looking at the odds which are quite different, I quite doubt that Getafe will be able to beat Real Sociedad, and a draw would make more sense or bet on BTTS. But I'm pretty sure the home team will win this match.
And the match this week that will be highly anticipated is the derby match and this will be a match Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid with high intensity.
Real Sociedad is very strong when they play at home, and recently they were even able to hold Inter Milan to a draw in their UCL match.
So it is very likely that this weekend Real Sociedad will be able to beat Getafe in front of their own supporters, even though Getafe is in good form at the start of this season but if we look at it overall these two teams have almost the same strength and even Real Sociedad is slightly superior .
So it's only natural that the bookie issues fairly small odds for Real Sociedad's win, Odds @ 1.58 are quite worth it with the possibility of a big win.
Real Sociedad team is very strong this season as well. I watched Real Sociedad's performance in the last few matches. The team is performing very well. They won 5-3 against Granada. Although they could not win against Real Madrid, they managed to perform very well in the match. Moreover, the team played very well against Inter Milan in the Champions League match. Inter Milan is very strong now. And Serie A is in good form too. Even then the team failed to win against Real Sociedad. Sociedad players are very confident now. And so Sociedad will probably have no problem winning against a team like Getafe at the moment.
Considering the game Real Sociedad has played in recent weeks, I think they will easily win against Getafe without any obstacles. Getafe is an important team, of course, but Sociedad is playing at full performance right now. We also need to congratulate the game they played against Inter. They became one of the 3-4 strong teams in La Liga. I think they will easily overcome the Getafe obstacle.

The Getafe team cannot be called weak at the moment. The team is currently in the ninth place in the points table. Out of 5 matches they lost 2 and won 2. Getafe managed to get 1 point against a strong team like Barcelona. Even so, I would say Real Sociedad is a stronger team than Getafe right now. Because the way they performed in the last few matches, it was really good. Because they played well against big teams. Also this match is Real Sociedad's home match. At home, the team will definitely try to get full points. I will probably bet Real Sociedad to win this match.

Manchester United are to deal with various problems these days. It seems like it won't be easy for them to pull themselves together soon. But if they don't make any proper progress until the end of the first half of the season then Erik ten Hag could be under the danger of sacking.
I won't criticize him harshly for the defeat against Bayern Munich though. Because it was already a very difficult game for them on paper. I was even expecting a really comfortable win for Bayern Munich. But despite their scoring 4 goals the Red Devils still answered with 3 goals.
However, Man United's performance in the UCL will also be considered by the club. Ten Hag made a strategy that I don't think is bad. they had problems in defense, but they were also strong in attack. the match against Munich was good enough for Man United. without seeing their final results.
The most important thing to think about is their performance in the EPL, of course looking at the current results fans won't like it. Ten Hag will have to find a way quickly to get their team up. I'm sure it can be done, looking at last season's experience which I don't think is much different from Man United's current situation.

I think Manchester United's biggest problem is their defence . And because of bad defense, the team lost points in most of the matches.  Their attack is not too strong but good enough. But their defense is very weak.

Manchester United have conceded 14 goals in their last 5 matches . This is too much. We don't expect such poor defense from a top tier team like manchester united. If Ten Hag can only strengthen the defence, I think the whole scenario of Manchester United's performance will change. But so far United's defense has failed to strengthen Ten hag. ten Hag should have added experienced defenders to the squad this season.

Union Berlin got a goal in the last minute in their first Champignon League match. Union Berlin had a real defensive battle against Real Madrid, especially in the second half. The defence prevented Real Madrid from scoring for a long time. Union Berlin will play against Hoffenheim at Saturday. Hopefully the defence will have recovered by then. Because Hoffenheim has always scored 3 goals in the last 3 games.

In the last two matches we have seen very poor defense from Union Berlin.  The team has conceded 5 goals in their last two bundesliga matches . But in yesterday's match against real madrid, the defenders of Union Berlin played very well. Although they were defeated, the performance of the defenders was very good. Madrid players attacked a lot. Even then they managed just one goal, that too in extra time after 90 minutes.

I think Berlin will be able to get 3 points against Hoffenheim. However, Hoffenheim are in good form. They have won three out of four matches. And the team will want to win the next match as well. However, Union Berlin is a very experienced team. I think they will do no wrong in this match.

Today is the day beginning of the first ODI match between New Zealand vs Bangladesh. Stats says that, New Zealand hasn't defeated Bangladesh in men's ODIs at their home ground for 13 years. Regardless of the opponent's strength, Bangladesh has often managed to come out on top. However, the NZ bowling line-up is quite strong and has the potential to destroy any batting lineup with a strong and short spell.
The New Zealand captain admitted that Bangladesh is a very tough opponent on Bangladesh soil so this series will not be easy for New Zealand at all. Bangladesh captain Liton Das is very optimistic about this series. 
Tamim Iqbal is returning to the team after a long injury and Mahmudullah or Soumya Sarkar are likely to be in the XI. Shakib Al Hasan has been rested in this series. Basically, new players who have been given a chance in the XI after a long time can be tested through this series and given a place in the World Cup squad. 

Right now, Bangladeshi fans will be more than happy if Mahmudullah remains in the Riyad XI. In case New Zealand did not tour Bangladesh with their main team in this series, I will keep Bangladesh in this series.

This is the last series for both teams before the World Cup.  So the series is very important for both the teams. Both Bangladesh and New Zealand will be looking to win . Also Bangladesh team is very strong at home ground. And the Bangladesh team at home is capable of challenging any big team.

Mahmudullah is one of the most experienced players in the Bangladesh squad.  But due to his lack of form, the team management is not interested in keeping Mahmudullah in the World Cup squad. If mahmudullah performs well in this series,  he will get a chance to play in this World Cup as well.

The match is being delayed due to rain. Bangladesh won the toss and decided to field. They bowled very well. New Zealand collected only 9 runs in 4.3 overs. Today's weather is not good. There is also a possibility that the match will be abandoned.

So far I'm not satisfied with what I have seen from PSG. They are even worse than last season and I believe they have a chance to lose even the Ligue 1 title to a different team. Because there is just no proper team effort now. You can't expect to be successful by relying on only Mbappe's skills. He still continues to score many goals but it just doesn't work that way.
It is the same with Tottenham and Kane situation in the last season. You know how amazing Kane was with scoring goals. But despite his scoring 30 goals Tottenham were still horrible.
Honestly PSG's future is likely to be similar to that also and just as Kane did Mbappe will leave too.
You are satisfied with what you saw from PSG because all you saw was just in French Leageu not in the Chmapnmios Leageue.
We know PSG is a strong team in the French league because of the better and more investment they had and more players they bought for their teams while other teams in this league cannot do that.
But if this team plays with another team at the same level, they can't do anything in the Chmapnios Leageu even after all the money they invested.
This is where you are wrong. Even though I think PSG has lost power, I still think they are one of the few teams with a strong squad in the UCL. Mbappe, the igniting force, is still there and there is still a possibility that they can add to their success this year. I'm sure they'll make it through the groups for the UCL, but progress in the rest of the tournament may depend entirely on who they face in the qualifying draw.

PSG squad is relatively weak right now, their attacking performance depends solely on Mbappe. If mbappe doesn't perform well, it will be very difficult for PSG to win against any team. Actually PSG is very lucky that they got an experienced coach like Enrique. Enrique is experienced and knows the champions league style of play.  This is why PSG will probably be able to play well in the group stage matches.

However I would say that PSG does not have a strong enough squad to qualify for the quarter finals or semi finals of the Champions League. I watched PSG's performance against Nice in the last match of Ligue 1. The performance of the players is quite erratic.

Newcastle performed well in this match and got a good result  . This is their first match in the champions league. Eddie howe has been able to strengthen the morale of the players. Although this team performed well last season, they are not doing well in the premier league this season. The players are not in good form. Even then  they managed to fend off a strong AC milan team in the Champions league . The Milan team is very experienced.
Great first game for Newcastle and Eddie Howe. Not as predicted, they performed well because they were able to hold a team like AC Milan, who is very experienced, to a draw in the Champions League. Newcastle's poor performance in the Premier League has no influence on the Champions League match. AC Milan, which performed well in Serie A, was unable to get full points.

There is no doubt Eddie Howe is an excellent coach. Actually I became an Eddie Howe fan after watching Newcastle's performances last season. It was surprising how consistently Newcastle performed last season, despite a mediocre squad. And you know all this was possible because of Eddie Howe's excellent match strategy. He also helped boost the confidence of the players, and because of these reasons the team has been able to resist Muhl Milan.


Milan's players also attacked a lot. Even then they couldn't break down newcastle's defence. I would say it will give newcastle players more confidence . Their performance against psg will be more organized in the next match. Eddie Howe's aim is to keep the performance consistent. I don't think he will do anything great in the Champions League this season. But I think the performance of the team will remain stable.
AC Milan attack on Newcastle United was very active in the first half and continued in the second half. The Magpies' defense line was good, able to win tackles up to 65% and goalkeeper Pope was able to make 8 saves.
Nick Pope performed very well in last night's match and getting the best player in this match was well deserved. The draw will make Eddie Howe evaluate his team in the next matches against PSG and Dortmund.

Newcastle will want to keep their defense tight in this match . And they succeeded. Also newcastle's goalkeeper played very well. But I will say newcastle kept their defense tight as well as had a number of brilliant attacks.  If milan's defense had been careless , Milan would have conceded a goal in this match.
The newcastle player will be more confident against dortmund and PSG after a good performance against milan . And I think Newcastle will be able to get points in the home match against psg.

Roma have a busy schedule this week and I think they must be able to manage as well as possible to maintain fitness in each game. Roma will face Sheriff in tomorrow's match with the capital of a big win which will be a big motivation for Roma players to steal points in tomorrow's match.
Roma squad was improved with summer transfer as they got some good players like Lukaku, Azmoun, Paredes, Renato, Christensen, Auoar to have a deeper squad. Unfortunately they still have some injured players like their captain Pellegrini or Abraham. Roma will need those players to come back if they go far in Europa League.
I think it's just a matter of how the players can find chemistry and this must be cultivated more deeply so that what they want can come true. Mourinho will certainly not be quickly satisfied with Empoli's previous victory and he must return to hard training so that his players can be more solid. The absence of Pellegrini and Abraham is also quite impactful and I feel that these two players are important figures for the team to achieve maximum results. Roma's European league match will take place soon but I am quite sure they can win again and continue to be consistent in their next Serie A match this week against Torino.
This match will be held at the Bolshaya Sportivnaya stadium and Roma will playing away from home. The talak victory over Empoli yesterday should created a new spirit for Roma to become stronger to face the match they will face, the match against Sheriff this time I hope Roma can win it because there are many Roma fans who want Roma to bounce back.
Jose Mourinho must make his clubs defense even stronger and be able to appear impressive and maintain consistency in order to winner the matches.

Empoli were weak opponents. However, Roma's win in this match will give their players more confidence.  The roma team is not weak this season. However, they started the season very badly. Their performance against empoli was good . And it's thought the team may have returned to the truck this time. The opponent Torino cannot be called weak in the next match. This team is also in good form winning the last two matches. So Roma will have to play well if they want to get 3 points. The team will not be able to earn full points against Torino if they perform erratically. But I think this match will be competitive. And Roma will be able to earn points in this match as well.

I don't know about Newcastle's poor performance... It seems to me that on the contrary they showed a good level, considering that this is their first game in the Champions League... Looking at Milan's stats, Newcastle didn't concede a goal and managed to draw away... I think Newcastle played well...
In a game like this most especially in the Champion League group every point is considered vital, Ac Milan created so many countless scoring opportunities from the start of the match to the end. While for Newcastle, it was a heroic point for them, Ac Milan overwhelmed Newcastle it was a disappointing result to me for Milan having had a lot of opportunities to have won the match but could not find a way through Newcastle played like they were underdog and in many ways there were not they were outplayed but not outmatched
well for many of the Newcastle players and Howe himself this was their first taste of champion league football initially Newcastle did not look overawed by the occasion as the played the ball around confidently well,and also attack with numbers it is understandable for Newcastle who was last seen in the champions league last in 2003 and now making a return to play in champions league game if the want to go far than this group stage they must have to show more than the displayed with Milan

Newcastle performed well in this match and got a good result  . This is their first match in the champions league. Eddie howe has been able to strengthen the morale of the players. Although this team performed well last season, they are not doing well in the premier league this season. The players are not in good form.

England vs Ireland

Today these two teams will play its first ODI in Ireland. Ireland has the home ground but England is looking much stronger as compare to Ireland team. They played one test match and England won that match with a good margin. And now they have 3 ODI matches series.
So here again England has much chanceito win this series easily. Let's watch. Smiley
England squad has good enough players to beat Ireland. The batting and bowling lines are much more expert than Ireland, and I think England can easily win this first ODI match today. Root, Duckett, Jamei Smith these three are the best batting of England team and Ireland team does not have strong batting like them. Whichever way I compare the England team proves to be too strong. So I will bet on England in this first ODI match, and of course win I hope.

You know this series against Ireland is going to be England's last series before the World Cup. You can call it a warm-up match for them.  It is clear that Ireland squad is very weak compared to England. England team's dominance in this series is easily predictable, However I would say England should find their weaknesses in this series.  They definitely need a perfect squad ahead of the World Cup, players who are in form are needed and players who are currently out of form should be given their chance against Ireland. As a result  England will be able to build a strong squad ahead of the World Cup.

Yes it's true that England's squad is very strong, they have played well against New Zealand in the last series. However their players have been erratic in their performance in several matches.
