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

[buwaytress]

I'm actually just going to sit back tonight and enjoy watching the games. A decent bet on Liverpool ML, and then $5 each on these ridiculous outcomes (hey, why not, right?). Any of you also got crazy ideas or bets? I mean, it won't be the first time we see a massive upset at Last 16 stage right?

Just noticed screenshot wasn't full, these bets are basically on Barcelona to win at least 3-0 (couldn't find outrights to qualify actually), Lazio to qualify and Gladbach to qualify.

We should see Liverpool & PSG advance to the 1/4 finals after their great 1st leg results. It will take a miracle for Barcelona to overturn a 1-4 result, they need to win by 4 goals to qualify. Leipzig are more likely to come back but this is also unlikely I think.

How would it be if Porto repeat their success from the season like 15 years ago when they managed to get the CL title?
That would be really a big profit. Not sure about the odds now for Porto to win the title, but should be around 50.00

I am sorry to see Juventus out but at least I won my bet and am happy about it.I saw the game and Juventus was unlucky yesterday night because they hit the post two times created tons of opportunities in the second half but when luck is against you no one can save you.

It was also a big shock for me that they couldn't eliminate Porto. They are a far better team than Porto actually but something went really wrong for Juventus last night. They couldn't manage to make it even though Porto played with 10 players for more than an hour. Porto scored a very valuable goal in the extra time which helped them to advance easier.

[Altryist]

Porto is getting back in European top teams, I did not expect that they will kick-out Juventus, but it happened in the end
what is more interesting is Sevilla play in Dortmund, they played great match, and could easily pass-through, but lacked scoring, which is most important in the end, Dortmund has two matches in a row where 2:0 is not enough for a win in the end

Juventus, led by Pirlo, doesn't look like itself, bad defensive play and I don't see the team's previous character. Porto are great, but I wanted to see Juventus win and advance to the next round. But this is football and the strongest wins. I don't think that Proto is able to go beyond the 1/8 finals,  the opponents will be stronger. They are just lucky that Juventus is not so stable this season.

With Liverpool performance at the moment, I think Leipzig can change the opportunity. Indeed, 2 goals behind and having to play at Liverpool base will make Leipzig even more difficult. However, their form in the Bundesliga has been impressive in recent matches. As #2 in their local league, for me there is a high chance for Leipzig to win this match. despite having to win via Penalty.

Juventus already failed, Serie-A still have Atalanta, I wish they can beat RM and become Italian clubs that qualified to the next rounds.

We (Liverpool) has two goals lead and advantage of away win at the first leg but the way Liverpool is performing lately I think Leipzig has a good chance. They need to win by at least two goals difference for the penalty shootout. And if somehow they are able to win by a 3 goals margin then game end for Liverpool.

I think both team to score and over 2.5 goals are safe bets if anyone is planning to gamble in this match. 

Really been busy lately but hoping to watch the match in this evening.

Will Liverpool's ugliness make it to tonight's UEFA match? even though this is an opportunity for Leipzig but I don't think I will give up that for me because this is one of the trophies he is still chasing even though this is far from a possibility.
I know Leipzig have had a good run in the Bundesliga but I don't know what happened in tonight's game even though there are often mistakes at home for Liverpool who have often taken defeats in their domestic league.

Juventus already failed, Serie-A still have Atalanta, I wish they can beat RM and become Italian clubs that qualified to the next rounds.

There is no way Real Madrid will definitely maintain a safe position tonight.

PSG, please, please...you got this 🙏

they got lose 0-4 from the same club PSG, but they reverse the score 6-1 in leg 2.

there's no comparison, back then they had the big saviour, O Rey Neymar, and also Iniesta and Suarez, plus the entire stadium backing them up

Time to make some changes in Juventus, since 2015 they have no midfield and this is the result.

Juventus midfielder since 2015 I had to omit about 8 players but according to Juventus rent boys " we don't have midfielders " because you lost to farmers from Portugal... Well get used to  

cut him some slack, it was a historic and embarrasing performance from juve, gotta find some excuses somewhere to try to lessen the blow, you know?

This is some bias argument lol;

no it's not, it is a valid argument...a Juve fan just said that the team's been playing without midfielders since 2015 implying that all those players they've signed until today have been shite, but @igehhh goes on and posts a list of the midfielders, and as you can see, what the other user said it's not true, Juve have signed tons of great midfielders over the past few years

[Spack17]

Wow, Borussia - Sevilla was very dramatic and emotional game. Sevilla almost made comeback, they had opportunity to score 3rd goal on last attack, but nobody didn't managed to make shot.

It was really hell of a match that Sevilla did whatever they can to make a comeback from the 2-0 score. I was expecting Dortmund to advance to the quarter final with a win here. But after Sevilla brought the score to 2-2 in the last minute, the match became very exciting as there was still a possibilty for Sevilla to stay in the match. It ended 2-2 but I think both teams deserved to eliminate the other. I really enjoyed both games of this draw.

That was totally amazing indeed. 10 men. Last minutes of injury time. Juventus even had a chance to pull one more back but they could not defeat the away goal rule. Truly that goal was worth 2, every Porto player will remember this.

I thought Dortmund the same yesterday. 2-0 lead is not enough with their crap defence!

Leipzig shock tonight perhaps?

[arallmuus]

Fun fact : Chiesa scored 3 out of 4 total goals by Juventus in both matches. Solid performances from Chiesa

Federico Chiesa is the future of Juventus and Azzuri. I wish that he won't be another Paolo Dybala and wish all best for him to be strong in his fitness. This defeat might put the end in the contract between Juventus and CR7 and maybe Andrea Pirlo.

He was probably the most passionate player to win the match. Ronaldo was basically shutted down throughout the match, he cant score at all but he managed to make atleast an assist though

CR7 might feel disappointed and leave the club but the fact is he did not have good performances in 2 legs against Porto.

He probably wouldnt leave the club. He is 36 right now and there isnt that many champions league club out there that could really sign and offer huge wage for a 36 years old player. He is still a beast but there isnt that many club that would consider him anymore ( Manchester United probably would idk )

there's no comparison, back then they had the big saviour, O Rey Neymar, and also Iniesta and Suarez, plus the entire stadium backing them up

Yeah back in the day, Barcelona was a beast but right now there is no way they are going to win against PSG

small info by the way...
Erling Haaland is now, by his two goals yesterday against fc valencia, the youngest player (20 years, 7 months, 16 days) in the ucl-history who has scored 20 goals.
he has now displaced Kylian Mbappe (21 years, 11 months, 19 days) in the 2nd place

Did not watch the match but I was really surprised to see Juve getting out, especially after they scored for 2:1 and Porto was man down. No matter my bet Juve to win passed so I was happy.


Should be two good games today with lots of goals. I placed a small bet on Leipzig to win 2:0, have a feeling we could see more extra time today. In the other game I am hoping Barca starts with all guns blazing and makes it interesting. My bet is over 2.5 goals instead of my usual both to score pick since this could end up with total breakdown of one club.

is he that young?
I don't even know that he is that young. he's so good, so people like me expect more and more until finally realized that he is still very young.
the same thing happens when you are a United fan but you give many excuses to Lingard because he is not performing well. he is already 28, but he still looks like a young player who graduated 2-3 years ago from the academy. for your benchmark, Bruno is 26 

I am waiting for PSG vs Barcelona, 4 am in the morning from my timezone 

[coinlocket$]

The next games;

Well, every counterattack with Mbappè will be a goal or at least one action to score.
I think this evening we can see 4 more goals.

How would it be if Porto repeat their success from the season like 15 years ago when they managed to get the CL title?
That would be really a big profit. Not sure about the odds now for Porto to win the title, but should be around 50.00

It was a major win for Porto in all aspects but IMHO this is their limit. They manage to cut off Juve and had luck with them but the next round will be tougher...

More tougher challenge is ahead of them whichever team is playing against them might be the likely winner, I don't see Porto as a threat to any of the remaining teams in CL despite managing to win against Juventus.
Porto winning the CL is very unlikely considering the calibres, quality and the impressive form of the remaining contenders or teams even with an odd of 100.00 their chances of winning is very slim.

That repeated penalty for Dortmund yesterday where the ball was in play for over a minute after the initial save was one of the worst things I have ever seen. VAR really has some strong points but when dinosaurs are using modern technology, it sometimes feels worse with it than without it.
If I was a Sevilla player, I'd have been totally pissed. Especially because it was a really soft penalty to begin with.

I hope Liverpool has a good game today, we really need to go through today. The first one was 50-50, Leipzig deserved more. Our form doesn't give me a lot of confidence, but we never got kicked out after winning the first leg 2-0. We also haven't lost 6 at home before though.

I also think that the chances of leipzig are not that slim to advance into the next round. In the first game liverpool wasn't that much better, leipzig just made to many mistakes and was giving goals away.
The second game is also played in budapest so liverpool does not have the advantage of a home game, which is not really existent at the moment anyway because of covid.
If leipzig goes in front it's a 50/50 game from that moment on.
