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

[skarais]

It looks like today's UCL match is very interesting to watch until the end. Even though it rained throughout the match, I impressed how the match was played. A draw did not benefit either team, but I think Chelsea have a great chance to beat Real Madrid in the second leg at home. Anyway, I like Chelsea's game today because it might not be what I imagined before.

Ended 1-1 and this is a huge advantage for Chelsea's second game in London.

Do you know if they will have people back in the stadium too? The opening for stadiums with the advanced vaccine campaign is very close there.

The end of the match which was not good for Real Madrid. They have to fight hard in the 2nd leg later. Maybe it will be difficult to score a goal at Chelsea, but they have to be brave to attack. Hopefully Ramos can appear in leg 2.

For today it seems that Sergio Ramos' absence has weakened Madrid, Varane who has been appointed as central defender has not been able to replace him. The draw made it difficult for Madrid. They must score a goal at Chelsea next week. Today Christian Pulisic was so effective he was able to score a goal with just one try.

There have been improvements from Real Madrid in the second half the back line solidified more after seeming to be lost in the first half, but they did not find themselves either in the first or in the second by possession and the offensive idea .
Chelsea in turn eased his pressure In the second, but he remained dangerous in all his rebounds.  they had pressure that exhausted every player in Madrid, especially after the exit of Pulisic and Werner .
 No one qualified and no one came out, and the decision will be in Stamford Bridge next Wednesday .

[ShowOff]

It turned out that Chelsea played as expected even though they failed to win the match. I didn't get to watch the game, but the highlight prove that they are playing with great intensity. Like I said yesterday, Chelsea will fight to win this match but they have good motivation even though in the end a draw is the result.

No one qualified and no one came out, and the decision will be in Stamford Bridge next Wednesday .

I will not choose the favorite Real Madrid there, Chelsea have to finish their job well as in previous years in other competition.

And Chelsea managed to get a really advantageous result in the first leg (1-1). Scoring first was really important for them as they captured the psychological advantage. Rudiger's assist to Pulisic was really delightful to see. But Real Madrid weren't late to equalize the score. Benzema answered them by striking a superb volley. After that, both sides found goal chances but couldn't make use of them. And I'd like to say that Chelsea were really awesome on defense just as I expected.

[bitzizzix]

As I said before, and Chelsea managed to draw against Real Madrid in the first leg and and Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel is more focused on away goals or draws to make it easier to host Real Madrid at Stamford Bridge in the second leg at Chelsea. And it turns out that the draw has been proven by Chelsea.
and the second leg will be an increasingly tense match, especially Real Madrid who will continue to attack so that the draw does not happen again.

[Renampun]

poor me, I placed a bet on Madrid and lose because draw...
leg 1 was really exciting, pulisic and Kante performed brilliantly and made a beautiful play. leg 2 will be an all-out fight between Madrid and Chelsea, seeing from that in leg 2 I won't betray Chelsea anymore 'lol'

[Igebotz]

Chelsea had a good game today, Real Madrid were up and running trying to manage the game to avoid more damage, if only Chelsea attackers were clinical enough. It was an overall good performance from both team. Chelsea with huge advantage getting an away goal. I hope they maintain the momentum in the second leg at Stanford bridge. I want to see Manchester City with the same performance against PSG tomorrow

[Marykeller]

Manchester city vs Chelsea final would be a lovely spectacle, a delightful experience. The English press would add some more spice to it, lol.

Good luck to all 4 teams left. My pick of the 4 would be Chelsea, though I wouldn't mind any of the other 3.

[kawetsriyanto]

game ended 1:1 and Chelsea takes little advantage to 2nd leg game.

Yep, Chelsea takes advantage for one goal away. But it doesn't mean Chelsea will automatically qualify to the final stage, Real Madrid has a chance to beat them on Stamford Bridge. Let's hope Sergio Ramos can play in the second Leg. Also, I expect that Zidane will force all players to be more offensive or aggressive in attacking. They should get one goal in the first half of the next second Leg. It will be very helpful to improve players' motivation and disrupt the opponent's concentration.

true, Real Madrid could beat Chelsea, but i think and it's just my opinion, Chelsea would qualify especially if Ramos won't play, there were a lot of spaces for Chelsea in today's game mostly in the first half, they could have scored more than one goal, it's going to be a tough for both teams in the 2nd leg, but i think Chelsea are the closest.

Most likely not going to happen. Chelsea is pretty good in defending, they just need to force a draw then they will qualify for the next round. I honestly think Chelsea will make it . There is no way they are going to lose in Stamford Bridge if they can hold Real Madrid in the first leg

Also, I expect that Zidane will force all players to be more offensive or aggressive in attacking. They should get one goal in the first half of the next second Leg. It will be very helpful to improve players' motivation and disrupt the opponent's concentration.

Thats what Real Madrid should have done in the first leg but they couldnt ( Chelsea was great though ). Real madrid was having trouble trying to stop Chelsea and had to resort to some serious booking. Marcello was taken out of the field because he got a yellow card and probably might get another one if he stays longer in the field

[blue Snow]

Good for Chelsea, they have collected an away goal in leg 1. they only need a draw without any goal to advance to the next round. In the next leg, Chelsea will definitely play an attacking impression to win the match, in this situation Kanté must have still on consistent to maintain his performance, we know he is the real hero in this match.

Didn't think that Chelsea could hold draw at Real Madrid home, it looks like the prediction of an all England final is quite open, it's just a matter of waiting for the match between PSG vs City tonight.
The odds for PSG 3.27 and City 2.07, City are favored but what happened last night favourite team is not a guarantee of winning.

The Champions League was even more interesting after many people were shocked by the results of the matches between Real Madrid and Chelsea
which ended in a draw. I agree that the all England final can possibility happen, if Chelsea can do very well as shown against Real Madrid. In fact,
I amazed me with Chelsea, they were able to score goals first, even though Chelsea played away. I'm sure Real Madrid will play more attacking
in the second leg, because they need to score goals. I don't know what strategy Tuchel will use in the second leg, because Chelsea played enough
to draw without a goal to qualify for the final. Next we have to wait for the results of the PSG vs Manchester City match, which in my opinion
Manchester City should be able to beat PSG with the quality of the players they have.

Chelsea finished their works well in the first leg of semi final. The draw result with one home-away goal in Bernabeu stadium is a strong support for them in order to hope for a happy aggregated result.

If two England clubs, Chelsea and Manchester City, manage to join the Champions League's final match, my bet goes to Manchester City. Manchester City can get troubles with non-England clubs but with the clubs from Premier League, I believe Pep will help Manchester City to win.

The exception with Tottenham Hotspur 3 seasons ago won't be repeated. All will be done precisely for the first Champions League of Manchester City and the first one for Pep in non-Barcelona kit.

Chelsea did great yesterday. Most of us must have thought Real Madrid would be the one getting lead in first leg but Chelsea were attacking really well. It was impressive that they also handled their pacy wingers pretty well which was the one thing I was worried about but they didn't let them any kind of attack.

Secondly at the starting Real Madrid were allowing too much space to Chelsea which give them good breaks make some good advances. Chelsea did play well but I think Real Madrid should have done better in defensive area.

Chelsea is quite satisfied with the draw with Real Madrid, this will make it easier for Chelsea in the second leg with a one goal advantage away.
Making the morale of Chelsea players even higher, but we also cannot underestimate Real Madrid, which is more experienced in the Champions
League. The second leg is confirmed to be a match of life and death between Chelsea and Real Madrid.

I agree with you that if there is an all England final, of course I prefer Manchester City to be the champion. Apart from having a better performance
than Chelsea, Manchester City also have slightly better players than Chelsea. Moreover, Pep Guardiola has a winning percentage which is slightly
superior to Thomas Tuchel. So Manchester City should be able to beat Chelsea if the all-England final happens.

I consider that Real Madrid were out of luck in this first leg but it's not over yet there's still a chance in the second leg as we know Madrid is a team that is experienced in all competitions so something surprising might happen until now I still choose Madrid as a candidate to win UEFA.

[slapper]

Can't believe that Chelsea had an awesome performance last night even though I am a Real Madrid true fan. Honestly, I'm quite anxious about my team gameplay but I bet Zidane will soon find the recipe for winning. On the next face to face, I strongly believe Real will knock down Chelsea and acquire the ticket to the final. Besides, winning the La Liga title is a harder task so they will pull all of their power to win the CL
