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

[LittleBitFunny]

What a match between Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid! We noticed Griezmann's dominance throughout the match. Griezmann has scored two goals for Atletico Madrid. And in the 52nd minute of the match he saw a red card and is now out of the field. A perfect match. Atletico Madrid is now playing with 10 players. Liverpool should attack more and win this match. Let's see what will happen next.

I don't know if Ajax play extremely well or Dortmund play unexpectedly bad or both but I enjoyed the game. It was obvious that when these two teams play each other score should be over goals by any means. Dortmund couldn't score today -yet- but they had some good positions as well. It looks like both teams will advance to next round from this group. Sporting has no chance against them.

It happened as you expected. Liverpool managed to score one more goal. The goal was scored by Mohammad Salah. But he scored from the penalty spot. Liverpool is now 3-2 up. Since Atletico Madrid has played with 10 players now, it is very difficult for Atletico Madrid to score a goal now.

On the other hand, PSG is leading by 3-2. Messi scored two goals for PSG and Mbappe scored the other one. In addition to Neymar and Di Maria, PSG is showing great gameplay today.

I have watched a really miserable Dortmund against Ajax so far. I never expected that Ajax would win by a huge gap like 4-0. It still hasn't ended but most probably not many things will change in the remaining minutes. Ajax are just insanely good in the Champions League so far. They scored 5, 2 and 4 goals respectively in their first three games. They are very likely to end the group as the leader. I wonder what they will be able to do as of the next round.

I was completely shocked to see Dortmund's performance. Dortmund are doing well in Bundeslive. Moreover, they have won the previous two matches of the Champions League. But in today's match they are completely devastated. Dortmund's players may have been emotionally broken when Marco Res sent Ajax a 1-0 lead in just 11 minutes of the match by sending the ball to their own goalposts. And they were not able to come on the truck again. The Ajax team has made one great attack after another and has been able to score 4 goals.

Wow, what a night in Champions league.
Ajax win against Borussia 4:0 is serious statement. IMO, they're one of hottest teams in Europe and they can go far this season.
PSG - Leipzig another great game. Comeback of PSG, 2 Messi goals including Panenka penalty and smiling Ronaldinho in the stands.
Atletico 2:3 Liverpool. Completely opposite exciting game than. Referee didn't gave penalty after VAR review when Jota pushed Jimenez, what looked questionable moment for me.
Inter won 3:1 against Sheriff. But it wasn't that easy as result shows, Sheriff gave goid fight in 1st half.
Porto 1:0 Milan. Boring game, weak Milan performance and fully deserved Porto win.
Shakhtar 0:5 Real. It was difficult to expect such easy Real win.

PSG, Liverpool, Ajax, Real Madrid, Inter Milan and FC Porto have won today. The victory of Ajax and Porto was unexpected for me. Because their opponents were strong. Looking at AC Milan's performance, it seems that they are not paying any attention to the Champions League. They want to focus on Serie A this season. They have lost 3 matches in the Champions League. Ajax has completely knocked down Dortmund's defense. They have scored 4 goals. PSG vs Leipzig and Atletico Madrid vs Liverpool were two very competitive matches. PSG got a chance to score another goal from the penalty spot in 90 + 4 minutes but Mbappe missed the opportunity.

[KTChampions]

Today the teams showed just fantastic performance - I calculated and it turns out that on average 4.3 goals were scored in each match!   Who shocked me today is Borussia, Ajax is a strong team, but losing 4-0 to it is surprising, to put it mildly. I have not watched the game, but I see that according to statistics, Ajax deserved this victory (possibly with a smaller score). Atlético is losing at home and is in dire straits. Now their chances for 2nd place in the group have dropped significantly.

Some really good matches today and most of the favorites won in this matches. PSG again struggled but was abled to win it in the end. Ajax starting to play amazing like they did a few years ago when they were in the semi final. Milan again lost and is probobly knocked out of champions league

[ShowOff]

Atletico Madrid vs Liverpool is a game that is quite interesting and full of prestige. Both team played quite well even though Atletico Madrid had to play with 10 player after the referee gave Griezmann a red card. I thought Atletico Madrid deserved a penalty that would probably have turned the score into a draw, but the referee decided not to take it as a foul. Despite losing, Atletico Madrid did not appear bad throughout the match.

In the other match, PSG will have to try hard to win the match against Leipzig today because Leipzig played amazingly. Messi scored 2 goals and that's good but I think he could have scored hattrick for PSG the first time if Mbappe had given him that penalty opportunity. It's a shame that Mbappe squandered this opportunity, but overall PSG is also amazing even though PSG's defense in my opinion is still quite weak. Ramos is expected to maximize PSG's defense going forward when he starts playing.

Atletico Madrid - Liverpool game was a very interesting one. I was expecting Liverpool to win this game and they really did it by 3-2. And they even got ahead 2-0 too. But Atletico Madrid made a nice comeback thanks to Griezmann's two goals. However, the breaking post was the red card. And it was really shocking to see Griezmann being shown the red card. After that, things were easier for Liverpool. But still, it was a really competitive game.

They have a poor form being visiting team, they don't usually get what they deserve at the end of the match.
Ajax showed class in this game today, Blind scored and assisted haller, who did the same scored and assisted blind.

This is Champion's League, Not some away game in Bundesliga  

Ajax being at home, I was not surprised by the Borussia Dortmund loss.

Atletico Madrid - Liverpool game was a very interesting one. I was expecting Liverpool to win this game and they really did it by 3-2. And they even got ahead 2-0 too. But Atletico Madrid made a nice comeback thanks to Griezmann's two goals.

The match was epic. It's  sad that I watched it in bits because I was taken up by the Real Madrid Match. Looking at the highlights. I must admit it was the match of the day.

A very interesting game couldn't take my eyes of the screen for a moment, controversial decisions from the referee and VAR.
That should have been a penalty for Athletico Madrid, they are a very tough side you can imagine how well they contained Liverpool's attacking threat.
Although Salah came twice on the score board.

I think that very big changes are starting to happen at the top of European football, and that the football map of Europe will change a lot.
In short, some former football greats like Barcelona, Liverpool, Arsenal, Inter, Milan ... could disappear and some new football greats like Newcastle and Leipzig could appear.
Barcelona is in a very difficult situation and has to sell off the best footballers in order to survive at all.
It could easily happen that they end up as former football greats like HSV, Torino, Nottingham Forest etc.
I think that's why they wanted the Super League so desperately in Barcelona, it was their last chance to save the club.
Today, football history means almost nothing, it all comes down to money and power, and currently Arab investors have money in abundance and where they invest money, new football greats, like PSG or Manchester City, are born.

I agree with your position on how you see the current situation of football, the one that surprises me the most is Barcelona, which is a team that despite all the bad things, due to the many crisis that it has had in my case, I never had in my life. left Messi, in fact he would have preferred to play with all the substitutes formed from the quarry than to leave Messi, and less in the way he came out. Now, now those who dominate are those who continue to have good acquisition of money, such as PSG, Real Madrid even if it is in crisis, I think they never show it, because they always aim at the most expensive players they have, for me it is a team that takes many risks at an economic level, and with respect to Newcastle it is seen that they want the best, unfortunately Zinedine Zidane cannot be their coach, because they looked for him and he wants to coach the French team, it is understandable, but it shows that many teams that were not so popular before can shine at any time.

What happened is that Laporta had the ridiculous expectation that Messi will agree to stay with Barcelona and play for free, you read that right, he wanted Messi to play for nothing, and this is why there is no loyalty coming from the players to their clubs, Messi gave everything he had and more to Barcelona, there is nothing negative that can be said about Messi on the field when playing for Barcelona, and what does Messi receive? Gratitude? Respect? Nope, they wanted for him to gave away his talent to them in exchange for nothing to solve problems that have nothing to do with Messi and everything to do with someone that did not knew what he was doing.

Shows how incompetent the Bundesliga teams are once again, Dortmund was thrashed while Leipzig bothered a 1-2 win in less than 30mins to end of the match. I was expecting a both team to score tip but surprisingly Dortmund failed to register a single goal. Great to see Messi on the score line

Atletico Madrid - Liverpool game was a very interesting one. I was expecting Liverpool to win this game and they really did it by 3-2. And they even got ahead 2-0 too. But Atletico Madrid made a nice comeback thanks to Griezmann's two goals.

Nothing epic about the game, VAR came to Liverpool rescue once again this Season, Atletico was all over the game before the ref ruined the game, the red card and penalty against Atletico Madrid was unnecessary

[Luzin]

The Ajax team has made one great attack after another and has been able to score 4 goals.

I thought dortmund would score in this game, but I was wrong. Ajax really made Dortmund die without making a goal. Or an own goal from Marco Reus seemed to make them mentally down. Actually from the start I predicted they would draw because their players are pretty evenly matched. But today Ajax did well, they could lock Erling halaand and control the game.

I'm also happy that Madrid won big, at least they still have a chance to get into the knockout stages. At least in group D there will be many options for teams that will advance to the next round. Regarding the Madrid game I think the star today was Vinicius Junior, he scored two goals and did well.

If A. Griezmann wasn't sent off the pitch the game would have ended a draw. Athletico Maldrid was a bit more nervous and frustrated after he was given red card. Sallah is just a one sticker of its own kind too. I enjoyed both Sallah's goal for Liverpool and that of Griezmann for Athletico. Liverpool took advantage of their lapses

PSG vs RB Leipzig was another exciting game. Mappabe is just too good of a team player. He made PSG goals a reality but by him scoring and also his assists. His first goal was just a perfect finish from few meters away from the post.

Club Brugge Vs Manchester city was a walk over the winning was just too easy similar to shakhtar Donetsk vs Real Madrid. They had their winning just too easy and their games were quite predictable

A lot of people expect Dortmund to score at least one goal today but it seems that unfortunately, we all got it wrong.

Nothing epic about the game, VAR came to Liverpool rescue once again this Season, Atletico was all over the game before the ref ruined the game, the red card and penalty against Atletico Madrid was unnecessary

Maybe "epic" is a bit overrated word but you can't disagree that it was a great game from two great teams. At least they play as we all expected, as a CL game should be.
VAR does his job, simple as that. If it "favors" a team it's not his fault...

Dortmund could not score a single goal. And in this match we saw that the team relied a lot more on Holland alone. Ajax has attacked a lot in today's match. At the same time they did not give Holland a chance to attack. No other Dermund player has scored. Dortmund must need another talented player like Haaland, who could have helped the team by scoring in bad times. Dortmund are still the second team in the points table. There is still a chance to go to the next round.
