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

[arallmuus]

I noticed that when all three stars played at PSG at the same time, they almost always got bad matches. And I hoped history would repeat itself today  

Basically its because both Neymar and Mbappe had a pretty bad chemistry and when Messi joined the team, it is even worst because Mbappe wants to prove that he is the best among those 3. Well it was a great game aside from the fact that Messi cant score a penalty but Mbappe saved the game on the last minute somehow ( I guess this is why Ronaldo is an expert on penalty huh )

I was kinda expecting PSG to be so much better than this but yeah 1 goal is much better than getting a draw and my bet is saved because of this lol

 What a goal!! And that came in at 90+3 as well! It was definitely at the very last attempt if you ask me, I do not think that they would get anything else. And what a freacking goal! Dude created goal out of nowhere as well, he is truly the great of his era, the era of Ronaldo and Messi closes and the era for Mbappe is starting, maybe Haaland and someone else would join him by the looks of it, but Mbappe is definitely the king of his era! AMAZING comporsure.

Really cant understand how a team like Real Madrid can play this manner. Really no sense, because the PSG its not a really good team itself, yes a lot of stars but not a good team.
Real Madrid deserves to lose and for more goals. Saved by LUCK and COURTOIS.
Anyways its a not bad result for Real Madrid and all his magic in the UCL we already know.
In the other game , no words GG for Sporting Lisboa.

After all, thanks to Mbappe goal, This game had logical outcome. PSG pushed really hard and deserved to score, while Real just tried to save 0:0 result and try to decide everything at home. And don't know how about others, but when I saw Messi going to make penalty, I had feeling that he will miss it and I was quite confident about. Mbappe had to make it, especially because he earned that penalty.
Sporting 0:5 City. Usually you don't expect such big wins in UCL playoffs. City were big favorites, but I didn't expected 5 goals. Congrats City for reaching next round.

Finally PSG was able to score a goal through Mbappe in the final minute of added time in the 90+4 minute and the final score was 1-0, at least this will be the capital in the second leg later at Real Madrid.
and it's a shame Messi couldn't take the penalty kick well, as Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was able to block it and it should have been 2-0 for PSG.

Crazy scenes and you can't say it's undeserved win for PSG, They really did work for this win and they earned it through Mbappe.

PSG were dominant all round the game and Real Madrid couldn't even register a shot on target, with the away goal rule cancelled, I guess there might have been no reason to go all out to get one in as much as they didn't concede right ?

It's going to be an entire different game in Spain, but we'll see. It's still anyone's tie.

2 - 0 would have been better, but anyone can miss a penalty, we do not know who will still quality between PSG and Real Madrid because Champions League is a very tough league that no club is not taking it most seriously. Let see what will happen in the second leg. I wish PSG to have scored more goal.

Manchester City wining with that goal range is not a surprise for me, it was an interesting match, if away match was like this, then we can predict how the home match will be.

PSG destroyed today Real Madrid with how they played i think Real Madrid was just lucky in this match to lose only 1-0. PSG barely won in the end by a late goal. Messi continues to struggle in PSG with a missed penalty and poorly taken honestly. Real Madrid will need to change a lot of stuff in their game if they want to go into the next round.

[yayayo]

PSG finally got what they were entitled to throughout the game, 3 points. It seemed for a long time to go 0-0, but in the 94th minute still made it 1-0. That feels even better than winning by penalty. Messi, in particular, will be relieved, as it looked for a long time that his missed penalty was going to be crucial with the 0-0 draw for a very long time. Nothing is lost for Real Madrid yet.

ya.ya.yo!

Dani Cavajal was tormented today by Kylian Mbappe, Wrong timing which lead to the tackle.
The way Real Madrid started the game was great, they was compactable frommthe start, defending and marking tirelessly.
Lionel Messi missed the penalty, I didn't see that coming, great save from Courtois.
Mbappe at the end showed he's world class, beautifully done by the france international.

That is true, with Real Madrid having just 1 shot on target, PSG got 8, Real Madrid got lucky today, the goals should have been more than 1 even as the penalty was missed by Messi.

This is not group stage anymore this season, this is round of 16, no point counted, opponents will either lose or win which will depend on the results of the home and away matches that will be played. Yes, Messi will be relieved that PSG won the match but having 2 goals will be an added advantage.

It is not for nothing that Mbappe is one of the best strikers in the world. The fact that he decides the game in the last minute, or perhaps the last second of the game, is something only the greatest can do. Messi has canceled this match by missing a penalty. That can happen, but that penalty was really badly shot. Nothing has been decided yet and Real Madrid can also beat Psg 2-0 at home. Bokies say 50-50 in Madrid I think.

It was an interesting game even though the goal margin isn't the high. Aside that late-winner goal from Mbappe, one if the key talking points would be that Messi's missed penalty. If Mbappe didn't score, I'm sure Messi would be blamed. While I'm not a PSG fan, I would really like if PSG can win Madrid in the return leg or at the very least, ein on aggregate. These PSG boys deserves to go ahead - compete  and then win the UCL.

They were definitely lucky not to have conceded more goals. The match isn't as close as the score shows. I don't think Real Madrid played there to win and they almost pulled it of.

They are down but they are still in a good position to qualify after the second leg.

I really enjoyed the game it was an entertaining match, Mbappe once again the match winner against all odds rose to the task, I was quite disappointed with Madrid performance today, they are more defensive than attacking consequently they couldn't record a single shot on target throughout the duration of the match, their midfield was poor today except Modric who did very well as well as Courtois who saved Messi's penalty, I believe the second leg will be much more tougher, Madrid knowing that failure to win will lead to their crashing out of UCL.

PSG are lucky to have a talented player like Mbappe who manages to score goals and make them beat Real Madrid. PSG should have won by two
goals on aggregate if Messi had not missed the penalty, but sometimes bad days can happen to anyone. So in the PSG vs Real Madrid match Messi
was having a bad day, not only failed to score a goal through a penalty kick, but Messi also played badly in that match. Since Messi's arrival to PSG,
Messi's performance has not been consistent. Looks like Messi hasn't really adapted to PSG's style of play, hopefully in the 2nd leg Messi can show
a much better performance. Even though Real Madrid lost, but Real Madrid's chances are still open to qualify for the next round. There is still a second leg
to be played at home to Real Madrid, so there is a possibility that Real Madrid will beat PSG with a higher score. So the Real Madrid vs PSG match
in the 2nd leg is more interesting, because it will determine which team will qualify for the next round.

I admire the way Mbappe puts in his best into every game for PSG even though his future with the club is very much undecided. He is a world-class footballer and his worth has not been dampened by the presence of Messi in the team, i mean his place in the team is very much deserved, he will definitely be an asset if he continues with PSG. Mbappe's record in the UCL this season is remarkable.

Lionel Messi missed the penalty, I didn't see that coming, great save from Courtois.

It will definitely be remembered for a long time, good thing that there are still other players in the team with the ability to create magic.

[pungopete468]

Yes, Man city was a huge favorite to win the match. Still, it would have been nicer if there had been a little more tension in the game. PSG's match against Madrid was great, despite only having 1 goal. I've never seen madrid pushed back so often and so little getting out. Then you also see how good psg is. I'm putting my money on Madrid to continue, they might soon play in a packed Bernabeu, that's a witch's cauldron and PSG has often been vulnerable this season. City? yes 0-5 won and at home I also think around 5-0.

The game between PSG and Madrid was a very good game the two teams played as if today was the final of the game. I expected the game to end in a goal less draw but when I heard that penalty whistle I knew that the unexpected has happened but I was astonished when Messi missed the penalty.thank God for a late powerful strike from mbappe if not for his goal,Messi would be the topic of discussions all of the world.three points well deserved for Paris Saint German.  

That's right and we expected the game to be closely contested that's why it was the most hyped fixture of the day beside Sporting vs City.  Messi is trying really hard at PSG but things are not just working out well for him and to top it off, cruel headlines from the media. I'm just excited that PSG would and that might give them edge when they will face Madrid at Bernabeu for the return leg.

[Smartvirus]

Some times I wonder, if Lionel Messi is ever going to adapt and fit in the PSG team just as it was for him in Barcelona. With all things being equal, I think he has been with the club for far too long to prove his starship. Today's PSG 1-0 Real Madrid was a good game and as a Real Madrid supporter, they played good but still at a disappointing lose. I really wish this kind of fixture was what we had in the finals.
We still have Manchester City though and today, they very much whipped SportingCP. I almost thought they were out just to entertain.
