⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 winner - Real Madrid!

Messi goal was truly impressive. That messi, always trying and not easy to fall. It's just confused, Napoli defense is so vulnerable, Messi vs some people can still be bypassed. Really messi child prodigy.

Goal fiesta today in the UCL games and I think we gonna see in the 2nd half at least 4 more goals as Chelsea refuses to give up and Napoli just got a new reason to fight with this penalty in the last minute in 1st half.

Messi is on fire tonight no doubt about it and the way he stole the ball from Koulibaly and obtain a penalty is just pure class and I'm happy he did not got injured.

That surely didn't take, Bayern are ahead... this might be another riot. Barcelona on the other hand still can't string together a couples of passes! 

Lenglet just scored a goal from header. Barcelona got the advantage. But from watching Napoli's game and playing style Barca can concede a goal anytime. They are pressing hardly to Barca's D-box.

Basically this remains an easy prediction for Barcelona's victory, even with a game like this I personally believe Barcelona can score more goals and obviously, this is not an easy match for Napoli so it's no wonder many predict about a win for Barcelona in this match because Barcelona have a solid squad and so is Bayern Munich who definitely won today.

Today both home teams are very strong and can destroy opponents very easily many pundits was thinking Napoli win is on but right now Barcelona is doing very good job and only teams like Bayern Munch or Manchester City can stop them and win this years Champions League.

Chelsea refuses to give up

They are on the brink of giving up, now they need to score 5 more goals to qualify which should be unlikely to happen. Bayern Munich is really good though even Chelsea only have 40% possession despite that Chelsea was quite good in Premier League but damn Bayern Munich just show Chelsea that they are on a whole another level

Edit : 4-1 for Bayern Munich and agreegate of 7-1

yeah, Bayern is not playing full speed, but good enough for another win, they are top favorites for the title, IMO, at the moment
all home wins in European competition, with these two tonight, that will probably end up like that, really something unexpected

[Coyster]

Chelsea lives matter, lol, but obviously Bayern Munich didn't care, they look like the major threat to City winning the UCL this season, I'd love to see a Bayern Munich vs City final. Barcelona are also there too, they may not be in the best form, but they are used to winning champions league titles. The UCL this season is so unpredictable and interesting despite the break, empty stadiums and now, one legged ties moving forward, football is indeed the beautiful game.

I think the most unexpected thing is the failure of Juventus to truly make a difference and win with more than one goal difference against Lyon.All other results were somewhat expected.The only game where could I have expected not a home win was Manchester City against Real Madrid but this was not the case.

[Trofo]

I sort of expected some surprises today, at least a draw in one of the games but both favorites were good and secured their victories in early stages. I had a nice double with both to score on these two games and it also passed in the first half.

Can't really complain but I expected more drama from games of such importance. I am sort of disappointed with how easily nominal favorites managed to secure their positions. Only exception is Juve game where Lyon managed to pull a surprise but again there was no real drama. Juve needed one more goal and they did put some pressure on Lyon but it was nowhere near an all attack formation in the last minutes. Is it too much to expect more flair from these sides? It is almost like they don't want it enough.

[notblox1]

All home wins and a great day again for me and my bets.
Barcelona vs. Napoli 3:1 and Messi scored like I predicted.
Bayern Munich vs. Chelsea 4:1, and it was much easier than I expected.

[LTU_btc]

For Barca it wasn't such easy game as it looks on final result. Napoli started very intensive and had their chance in start of game. And in general, they played well tonight. But Messi was awesome today.
I didn't had big expectations about Chelsea, but their defense was joke today. And Lewandowski is simply amazing - 2 goals and 2 assists. I just remind that he had goal and 2 assists in first leg. So, he took crucial part in all 7 goals scored by Bayern in this pair. It's not fair that there won't be Golden Ball award this year because he fully deserved it.

[snipie]

... But Messi was awesome today....
-snip-

That the resume of the match in fact and hopefully will be too in the next time vs Bayern or else they will be knocked!
For Chelsea 2 defeats with 3 goals difference vs Bayern, that number 3 lol!

[EdenHazard]

Can Manchester City go all the way?

With the kind of quality and squad depth that they have, I'm expecting nothing less.
^{- It'll be them or Bayern.}

Yupp there's no doubt for now the favorites are between these two , the team strength in them and the recent form we have witnessed.. it's Manchester City year or Bayern.

But yeah it seems bayern had tougher road to the final as they have to face Barcelona in the next game. The odds changing..
Manchester city are eyeing the champions league trophy more serious yeah if only there's no surprise happened.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

Barcelona vs Bayern is the stand-out 1/4 final match, I make whoever wins this the favourite to win the tournament. Man City are good sure but they have no pedigree in this competition & that usually counts for something.

[Lordhermes]

Bayern Munich vs. Chelsea 4:1, and it was much easier than I expected.

It had all been home win right from Europa league games and the same thing happened in champions league games too, the battle is over and a selected teams for next round is battle preparation. Bayern Munich home win was a sure one as so many bettors had a great won tickets today, Messi goal missing isn't affected your bet as you played to score +2 goals?

Barcelona won the Napoli match, but they are far from the Barcelona we know. Meanwhile, Bayern looks solid at the moment and have a chance to proceed to the next round if they approach Barcelona in the next match aggressively. But this being a one-legged knock out. It's quite tricky to say who will win this tournament though I fancy a PSG vs Bayern Munich Final

I agree with you and I believe Bayern is the team to take the Champions league this year. They are on form, have individual quality and work as a team on all fronts. Barca is too chaotic and Man City always crumble in Champions league when it matters.

Many prediction say that Barcelona is difficult to maximize the result in this match because Napoli is not an easy opponent but Barcelona is able to overcome Napoli is resistance which is known to play quite well. Of course both team have a chance to qualify for the next round but Barcelona are the ones who are lucky. Very nice. But subsequent matches were more intense for both team, both Barcelona and Bayern.

Barcelona is pretty convincing in the Champion this time, I hope they can reach the final this season.

[kassex]

As expected, Real Madrid lost to City and Barcelona beat Napoli. City is likely to advance to the final, where it will play against Bayern, Lyon and Barcelona will not be able to oppose anything to these teams.

It seems that the category difference between Bayern Munich and Chelsea is quite huge, even though Chelsea are quite a formidable team in the English Premier League and they have also managed to gain a spot as one of the top four teams on the table at the end of this season, but Bayern Munich are still able to score many goals against Chelsea, I think it will be very entertaining to watch Bayern Munich playing against Barcelona at the quarter finals.

[MCobian]

I have a different opinion with you, I hope Real Madrid will win against Manchester City. But overall Manchester City indeed deserved to win,
Real Madrid without Sergio Ramos are very fragile in defense. Evidently Varane made a mistake and made City can score goals. Regarding
Barcelona I agree with you, with Messi's very good performance, Barcelona can beat Napoli. Seeing the performance of Manchester City and
Bayern Munich, it is only natural that many people predict that the two teams will enter the final.
