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

Just 60 minutes in the game and Chelsea are leading by 3 unreply goals,wow Thomas Tuchel is doing wonders with this team can't believe Chelsea will dominate the Italian giants like this, am truly amaze how chalobah have mature and becomes so good, where have he been all this why he is good, defensively and offensively he is going to be world class is clear for every one to see.

ManU unlocked with Cristiano Ronaldo. Defeating Villarreal 2-0 with a goal from Sancho in the 90th minute, they confirmed his leadership. Atalanta, on the other hand, took a 2-1 lead in the ongoing match. If the final week is entered with these results, ManU will be the leader and Atalanta will be the second. The matches to be played in the last week will be very important.

If some noticed how Ronaldo's goal came, he did not look at the goalkeeper and did not see the goal, but his intuition ordered him to put the ball in that way because the goalkeeper would often be ahead and in fact the goal was.
The 140th Champions League goal for this man, a goal against Young Boys and a goal that settled the three points against Villarreal in the first leg, the winning goal against Atalanta and settled the 3 points again, two goals against Atalanta in Italy helped Manchester to return with a draw, the goal of progress against Villarreal in Spain today and opened the way for his team to reach the three points and take it to first place to ensure qualification.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored in the first, second, third, fourth and fifth rounds, thus reaching 6 goals in 5 matches, becoming the first player in the history of Manchester United to score in 5 consecutive matches in the Champions League.
I still remember Ancelotti's historic statement when he said that you own Cristiano, it means that you enter the match with a goal for zero.

to be honest, it was a tough match, benfica really made barca difficult, a lot of chances were created but none of them came to fruition.  maybe the end result is a draw....poor xavi

chelsea are amazing, they have quality defenders and chalobah proves that.

Chelsea have been an entirely different and a team to beat under Tuchel, Even if Tuchel should leave soon, what he's done would remain with the squad for the next few years.


Barcelona finally seemed to have broken the deadlock but Araujo was flagged offside, a frustrating night so far for Barcelona, few minutes left to play for but they might need to head to Munich with the hope of getting some points, crazy hope!

Atalanta ML @1.88 (boosted)
Bayern score in Both Halves @1.9

Ouch, thats nay for both of these. Atalanta had the lead then Young Boys turned it over again before Atalanta scored another goal which makes it 3-3. It was an exciting match, Young Boys is desperate to win to atleast secure the Europa League play off

Atalanta, on the other hand, took a 2-1 lead in the ongoing match. If the final week is entered with these results, ManU will be the leader and Atalanta will be the second. The matches to be played in the last week will be very important.

This one ended with a draw so with 10 points that means Manchester United secured the play off no matter what the result for the last match will be. Well this is a good starting match especially after Carrick took over the position but it is still too early to celebrate because the play off will be so much different compared to the group stage.

[Oshosondy]

Young Boys 3 : 3 Atalanta
This was one of the most interesting matches for me, Atalanta that was winning before thinking the club will qualify for round of 16 played draw with Young Boys, now Villarreal qualified for it. Villarreal lost to Manchester United but still later qualified.

It will be good if Chelsea scores a couple more goals, because otherwise, after the match, everyone will only have something to discuss this highly controversial goal. Unpleasant episode, I hope we will not see anything like this in the playoffs.

Chelsea 4 : 0 Juventus, even with no goal for Juventus, it is clear how the victory should be for Chelsea.

C. Ronaldo leaving the club impromptu resulted to Juventus to lose form, the club is still good but not as good as it was before. Chelsea is not an easy club to play with this season, Chelsea can not be underestimated, they play better than I thought they would.

Barcelona 0:0 Benfica. It's unbeleavable how Seferovic missed in the end... In general, our game was not great, not terrible and draw probably deserved result. So, now we need to beat Bayern in last round or wait for help from Dynamo Kyiv and expect that they will play draw at least. I think second option is more likely
Chelsea 4:0 Juventus. I'm not sure is that Chelsea so good or Juve is so bad.
Malmo 1:1 Zenit. With 10 players on pitch Zenit managed to achieve draw in the end. Fight for spot in Europa league is still alive. EDIT I was wrong, Zenit already qualified to Europa league.
Young Boiys 3:3 Atalanta. Simply sick game. I think it was easy to expect many goals there, but not so many, honestly

A crazy match it was towards the end, with Benfica missing an open chance through Seferovic. I have no idea how that lad failed to put that ball in target  
Had he scored, Barcelona would have been automatically out.

All is not over for Barcelona yet, but It is an uphill task with lots of odds against them in the last match of the group stage.

[tokeweed]

It is Villareal 0 : 2 Manchester United  at the end of the match, second goal at 90th minute. I was thinking Villarreal might win the match but it was another way around today for Villarreal. Manchester United won the club both home and away. The last match in the group stage with Manchester United is with Young Boys at Manchester United's home. That will be a big win for Man United.

In the second half, Man United played quite impressively. With Bruno Fernandes and Rashford in the game, Man United's performance has been improved and they can do a lot of attacks which are quite troublesome for Villarreal's defense.

Good start for Carrick.

Yup but I hope the Man United board won’t make the mistake of getting excited about the prospect of making his managerial role permanent...  For the fans’ sake.  But then again if they we’re in for another treat.  Lolol.  Carrick ain’t no Pep and for a time it seems like a couple of clubs are looking for their own version of Pep Guardiola.  Graham Potter has more managerial chops than Solskjaer and Carrick combined if you think about it.

Anyway Ronaldo anytime goal scorer hits again.  I think United could be out of the CL by the KO stages and Ronaldo would still have the chance to be the highest goal scorer.  

[borovichok]

With a performance like this am starting to think that Chelsea might retain the champions League,they are so discipline with 3 goals up they are still playing on a high intensity for a very long time until they got there 4th goal, every player knows there duty especially the ones coming from the bench, in my opinion and thought, is only Bayern Munich I see that can stop them.

Yes, it is very good that the final result leaves no room for controversy, even if the ball was formally scored according to the rules, it is unlikely that anyone will be satisfied if this happens often.


It looks like Barcelona is heading for the Europa League - the chances of leaving Bayern with a draw are extremely slim. It will be interesting to see how the bookmakers will assess Barcelona's chances of reaching the next stage - at the moment these odds are not yet available.

[KingsDen]

Chelsea Fc winning Juventus is not a surprise to me.
I already knew Juventus will not approach the match with all their strengths because they already qualified.
I expected 2goals to 1 or 2goals to nil in favour of Chelsea.
But the goal margin I saw made it look like a humiliation.
Yes it is. How can Italian giants be reduced to naught.
It is not a pleasant record for the Italian side.
However, Tuchel and his boys cannot stop to amaze us.
Chelsea and Manchester United into the round of 16 in UCL.

Chelsea is beginning to win my love,and I will give it all to the coach.He is a winner,since he came to Chelsea FC,he has totally transformed the club,and every team that meets Chelsea now is doomed.
The way they played Juventus today,not giving them any chance to score is amazing.
Imagine them thrash a big team like that,you will see that they might certainly get to the final again.

Dynamo Kyiv has no goals in the last match so Benfica's victory looks pretty possible. Barcelona's hope for the last match is unmotivated Bayern and many young players in the starting squad.

Some interim managers do well after a few months but the board could still fire him at anytime anyway. They will have just to pay more if he was made permanent before that hehe.

Anyway Ronaldo anytime goal scorer hits again.  I think United could be out of the CL by the KO stages and Ronaldo would still have the chance to be the highest goal scorer.  

I also don't have high expectations for this team to go deeper into the tournament but they are quite unpredictable.They could be bad in the PL but play well in the CL.

Barcelona, ​​by drawing with Benfica at the Camp Nou, put itself on the brink of exiting the Champions League, and moving to the European League for the first time in a very long time.
In fact, Barca could have won, and almost lost, but in any case, he missed the decisive player in the last attacking third. Fati is injured, and Depay is an above average player, nothing more, nothing less, and indirect at all, in addition to a clear slowdown in passing and receiving.
In general, a personal expectation, Barcelona will turn into the European League this season, and for the rest of the matches, Juventus is not better than Barca, losing four clean points against Chelsea, and the Italian team has turned into a mediocre team recently, and Allegri has not done anything big so far, and only the ease of the group will make him Climb in second place, never his strength.

[examplens]

Cristiano Ronaldo scored in the first, second, third, fourth and fifth rounds, thus reaching 6 goals in 5 matches, becoming the first player in the history of Manchester United to score in 5 consecutive matches in the Champions League.

I think you are wrong. Currently, UCL records are scoring in 9 consecutive matches and hold it by Ruud Van Nistelrooy (played for United), Cristiano Ronaldo and from today Robert Lewandowski.
I just read it today, after Lewa scored and equalised that record. amazing, right?

I agree with you and there is 1 more team is Liverpool I'm sure these 3 teams will go to the semi-finals anyway EPL still dominates the champions league this season
While PSG still have a chance but it's not certain yet we will see after the match Man city VS PSG

[Rruchi man]

.. and every team that meets Chelsea now is doomed.

Certainly all the big teams will have to buckle up when playing Chelsea, today's trashing of he "Old Ladies" is a cue to other teams in the UCL. I totally love the confidence around every player in the Chelsea side, almost anyone can score a goal. This Chelsea side really has the potential to go far in this competition. Tuchel has really built a team.

As I said before, Chelsea have turned into a scary team under Tuchel Command when replacing Frank Lampard on 26 January 2021 because they can easily slaughter a giant team.
and Chelsea have very good players on all fronts because they have the best football coach in Europe so it is very easy and very possible to go through every next round to reach the final.
