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

[Furious 7]

RMA 0-2 SHK
Can you believe that? RMA is playing such poor. Sakhter is going in attack moments after moments.

Damn, it's 3-0. How come RMA going to come back in this match? I can't see such a scorer in RMA team. It's half time. I can't remember when last time I saw this Madrid.

This is very bad for Real Madrid's game, unlike the usual performances like this, it's less exciting if Real Madrid can't pay even 1 goal in the second half. It's better to turn off the TV instead of another match and watch Leipzig vs Lokomotiv in the second half like it was exciting now the score is 1-1.

3 goals for Shakhtar maybe it will last if this game doesn't change in the second half then it's a terrible defeat for real Madrid.

I was just watching the livescore and I thought there was a mistake somehow l   I had to tune in, just to realize it's the reality and look at the stats, Shakhtar Donestk seem to be in control of the game. What could be worse than losing 3 - 0 nil to such at the Santiago Bernabeu

What the heck is this?!  
Real Madrid - Shakhtar Donetsk 0:3 half time...
Now I need this to stay because I played both teams not to score

In the local league Shakhtar is great but for this season, even Shakhtar is not very good when playing away, so it is clear this is a surprise as even Shakhtar can win 0-3 in the first half at Madrid. I think this pandemic is a great opportunity for an underdog team, because the big team is not at their best this season and maybe we will get a new champion later.

Bro they have nine players out for this game...

[LTU_btc]

Wtf is going on . Shakhtar is leading 3:0 and they are actually playing better. Real defence looked so pathetic in first half. I just remind that Shakhtar don't have 9 players because of Covid-19. And it's key players like Taison, Junior Moraes, Stepanenko and others. But it looks like Real affected by virus. Maybe they minds were on upcoming El Clasico.
Edit 1:3.

[buwaytress]

Yup, I think I jinxed myself by counting all my chickens before they hatched haha. Vinicius came right in and took a goal, but to be fair Shakhtar also had two more chances that could easily have turned into goals. And now Salzburg got 2-1 so I might soon be holding none of the birds in the bush eh heh heh.

OK I'll shut up until Liverpool at least. Sorry gods of fortune for testing you.

P.S. Should have taken the HT live bet of over 5.5 goals @5/1 to hedge my bet.

It's beginning to look like Real Madrid wants to pull off a comeback. They have now pulled two back and looking to get a third as well. But if Shakhtar gets another goal, it should be enough for them to seal the win. Can't believe how the great Madrid has fallen off the pecking. If they end up losing tonight, It'll be their second consecutive loss at the Santiago Bernabéu. Zidane needs to get his team back on track. They've struggled in every game they played this season.

There's still about 20 minutes left to play. A comeback might be imminent!

PSG vs Man Utd is the game I’m going to tune into tonight. This will be a real test of Ole’s management skills, they have done well against PSG in recent seasons though.

If you compare the respective opening matches in the leagues and the respective team form, Paris is the clear favorite. Also the odds make that clear. Win for Paris 1.57 vs. win ManU 5.4. If you believe in ManU and want to choose the safe option, go for double chance ManU @2.58.

Seems my idea would have worked. Double chance is a strong weapon in betting when teams are quite similar good but odds for winning are so different.

My same reaction when I saw the half time result. I think Corona is going to mix up this Champions League season and it will not be the last surprising result.

[coinlocket$]

Whoa forgot about the Real Madrid game and it was good... it seems... but not for them! 2-3 at home.

If Inter wins this evening they are already risking the qualification spot.

Game of the evening? Bayern-Atletico. Easy 1?

[Fatemablabla]

Why badluck comes like this to my favourite club. I was so happy, I thought at least it will be a draw after the 93 mintues goal. But VAR cancelled the goal -_-.

But in 2nd half RM played a good football. So much pressing and some good chances. Liked it.
Final score RM 2- 3 SHK

[Darkoth89]

What an amazing match to watch (at least if you aren't fan of Real Madrid or put any money on them). First half was very poorly from Real but then the second half ... it could have gone both ways. Real had chances to level the score but Donezk also had very good opportunities to score again. 2-3  for Shakhtar in the end. I don't think Real will have problems surving the group stage but they definitely have to improve and can't show the same performance as in the first 45 mins today.

[DeathAngel]

I’ll be watching Real Madrid vs Shakhtar in a bit, be interesting to see how Real Madrid are getting on. Tgis is what some say ‘their’ competition after all.

Shocked at that result to be honest, I couldn’t believe what I was watching. It looks like this Real team have a long way to go to replicate the achievements of their peers at Real.

It seems that since Ronaldo left the soul was torn out of the club.

[dre1982]

Ajax vs Liverpool is a interesting game to watch. Ajax got the best changes till so far. Lets see how it goes.

The good side is that they are now playing as a whole team instead of a one man team.

They were bad but on the other side, you should be giving them some credit to be able to get 2 goals . Almost 3 goals and a draw but it was disallowed because of VAR decision. I thought that they are going to be humiliated by losing more than 3 goals against Shakhtar Donetsk, this crossed my mind after watching how bad they are on the first half

[NotATether]

Am I glad I did not bet on any of these matches today, with the choices I was going to make I would've lost all of them.

First I was going to bet against ManU for PSG or draw, considering ManU's track record at the Premier League this season, and I thought the victory against Newcastle wasn't going to help them against a more organized club like PSG... boy was I wrong.

Then I was going to bet for Real Madrid this match, but they had an awful first half and as much as they tried to save the game they fell short by two goals and Valverde's goal at the very end was ruled out by VAR.

Ajax vs Liverpool is a interesting game to watch. Ajax got the best changes till so far. Lets see how it goes.

Now I'm a bit shaky placing bets for Liverpool considering their draw with Everton a few days ago, van Dijk and possibly Alisson being out lean me towards double chance 1X. At any rate, there will be at least 3 goals scored by both sides so that is a safe bet for sure (hopefully I don't get burned again).

Oy Vey, before I could place an Asian total bet, Liverpool already scored a goal. I wonder if I should leave this match alone.

hahaha, lucky I didn't place a bet on Madrid vs Shakhtar...
Shakhtar must have been very happy with their win, I am sure their confidence is growing. btw, I was watching city vs Porto. the match was very exciting, City dominated possession and Porto was defensive.

It is fortunate for people who did not bet on the Real Madrid vs Shakhtar match, because the result of the match was unexpected.
I was one of the losers because I bet on Madrid's victory, I was disappointed with Madrid's game. Especially in the first half can conceded
3 goals, fortunately in the second half of the Madrid game there was an improvement and managed to score 2 goals. But still the final result
Madrid failed to win.

[Pffrt]

What's going on? RMA have been defeated by Shakhtar, City conceded goal at the beginning and seems to be counteracted by them tonight. Yeah, that's Champion League.

I didn't bet at the beginning of the match but later when RMA got 2 goals, I placed a bet with an odd of ~3 but bad luck, they couldn't make it happened.

[Harkorede]

Bayern Munich has picked up exactly from where they stopped last season, 4 goals already against Atletico Madrid and they're don't seem to be stopping 

Man City have also completed their come back, and It's 3 - 1, surely 3 points in the bag!

This result is ever stranger when you take into account that Shakhtar played without 9 covid positive players and that they wanted to postpone the match. I guess they feel much better now
It worked ok for me on the ticket since I took both to score on Real match but will now loose the ticket on Liverpool both to score. How come they always concede a goal in Premier League and then tonight they decide to play defensively sound game even without Van Dijk and Alisson?

German machine still killing it, already 4:0 against Atletico Madrid. Lewa still hasn't scored so I am expecting more goals there

and what is Diego Simeone doing ? he is already jumping like a kangaroo on the sidelines ?
but atletico madrid has received fewer goals than barclona. this is also a big success

4:0   goals today : 1:0 Coman (28.), 2:0 Goretzka (41.), 3:0 Tolisso (66.), 4:0 Coman (72.)
