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

[herurist]

Liverpool is a great danger to any team, they could end up winning UCL this year as well because they are looking like a well oiled machine like their old days. The start of the season may not be that great for them, but they have recovered that.

Spoortsbooks even decided to pay up on City as we all know from sportsbet.io, and now we are seeing how amazing Liverpool recovered already. Doesn't mean they will become the premier league champions, we do not know that but they are uncomfortably close for the bookies. That is why I believe that they should be given some sort of benefit of doubt even on UCL let alone on premier league. Not just for this game, they can win this easily, but for the whole thing.

Even for the UCL this season they have never been touched by defeat.
Their players are now back and this is a difference to last season when a storm of injuries haunted them.
Right now their front line is so crazy, Firmino, Salah, Mane Jota and Diaz need to be watched out for by almost all the teams that will fight them later. Besides that, they are also quite solid, even the most solid in my opinion for the midfield and back.
I won't be surprised if they reach the final and even become champions this season even though their opponents are still quite strong because there are still other superior teams

Was so much disappointed with the way the Liverpool and inter Milan game ended ( Inter 0 - 2 Liverpool) with the scoreline you will think inter Milan did not try but they did,they were better than Liverpool almost all through the game until the the introduction of firmino and Luis Diaz, that substitution change the game and Liverpool won that match, with that scoreline I doubt if inter Milan still have hope

Inter Milan have had some very good opportunities. If I remember correctly, they also hit the bar. And a few chances they really should have made. They were just better, but that was a big home advantage in Milan. I think things will be very different in Liverpool in the future. They don't stand a chance, but I don't give them a lot of chance to get rid of a 2-0 deficit.

[TopT3ns]

Bookmakers are currently giving 1.69 for the total over (2.5). I think this is an adequate assessment - both clubs are incredibly good in attack and it will be difficult for goalkeepers to keep their goal intact. Despite the fact that the first match ended with a minimal score, I think things will be different in Madrid as Real Madrid will play in the most attacking style in order to suppress the game of PSG.

It will not comfortably say that PSG will eliminate Real Madrid and neither will I say that PSG has a better attack than Real Madrid as you said. The only factor which is also an advantage to PSG is winning the first leg game. The winning is what has given them an edge.
Even the winning they had was not easy despite that Benzema was not fit for the match. This second leg we all may witness surprising things, ofcourse it will not be surprising to see Real Madrid eliminate PSG. In this kind of case big names does not really count as the biggest name disappointed the last time and even missed pk.

I think that we all are forgetting something. After Messi has arrived in PSG, he doesn't look the same as before. He has lost his flair I would say. And age is also taking a toll. And Kylian Mbappé has a lot of transfer talks surrounding him. Now I am not saying that these things will affect the playstyle or results of the match but maybe this could cause some mental disadvantage for PSG.

Although have Messi on PSG I think is not enough if have loss Mbappe next season because Lionel Messi is not on the top performance right now, after arriving on PSG he looks not attractive again like before on Barcelona and just few goals only created for PSG on this season. I think PSG should keep give new extended contract for Mbappe and try how to make him sure for agreement keep stay for PSG several years later. Although Lionel Messi less contribution goals for PSG but he always on several match before given assist for Mbappe and looks have better for Messi performance right now.

Already saw a similar thought, but about a month ago. Yes, Messi does look different from the goals he's scored. But I've watched him play, the technique is the same, just less scoring, what does that mean? It means he has poor chemistry with his teammates, that's all. I don't know what the problem could be... In that amount of time, he could have had time to adapt several times

I also found the result a bit exaggerated and too harsh for Inter. But the English game is a lot like that, attacking right and never getting anxious, and that's what Liverpool did. He made the right attacks at the right times, and the players had a more durable pace and physical ability.

I don't see that it's impossible, Inter still managed to discuss the qualifiers, but I think it's unlikely, on top of that playing at Liverpool home.

[muratsink]

Liverpool must be looking forward to playing the second leg of the draw against Inter. Liverpool are already in such a great shape that they wouldn't let Inter get even a draw against them. They already have a 2-0 score advantage on aggregate for now. They wouldn't make do with a draw and they would finish Inter off by a solid performance in Anfield too. But I still appreciate Inter's high effort against Liverpool in Giuseppe Meazza. At least, they tried their best against one of the favourite teams for the title.

Based on the results we got so far from UEFA champion league table, show that it will be difficult for Liverpool team to drop point in their next match. Liverpool team will not joke with their second leg match because they will not allow anything that will make the match to end draw than to use all their professional strategies to defeat inter team 1:0 to give their fans more celebration. Liverpool coach has learnt  from their past mistakes, never to allow draw to happen in their match again in this tournament.

Bad for Inter, i said Inter we lost.
In my opinion, at the next leg, Inter will lose again and leave the Champions League.
It's a shame, it's a team that could give a lot and instead, it's going very badly.

I don't think Inter have a chance away against Liverpool either! Especially after the 2-0 home defeat... Losing two points against such a strong opponent is already a disaster... I don't know what Inter have to offer against Liverpool... I think a miracle won't happen, since it didn't happen in the last game!

I have seen the performance of the last several matches of Inter Milan. Inter Milan lost points against weaker teams like Sassuolo and Geona. Their results in these two matches were completely unexpected and disappointing. With such a poor performance, they cannot expect good results against a strong team like Liverpool. Liverpool are now in good form and their squad is more experienced than Inter Milan.

On paper, Inter Milan's chance to qualify for the UCL quarter-finals has been confirmed as closed considering that they have to face Liverpool at Anfield stadium and they are already 0-2 down in the first leg at the Giuseppe Meazza, of course this is not an easy matter considering Inter Milan's performance is also still ongoing.often inconsistent where they have to lose the top of the table after being defeated by Sassuolo and held to a draw by a weak team Genoa, in contrast to their opponent Liverpool who just won the Caraboa cup title.of course Liverpool will play with high confidence so it is not impossible that inter Milan will again swallow defeat at Anfield stadium

At least Inter Milan should win 3-0 against Liverpool but will it come true? I think we need to see how Inter Milan do it, actually I also doubt how the statistics will be very different later on, especially since Liverpool playing at Anfield will be very efficient to win to qualify later.
Inter Milan can only try in the second leg, the fatal first leg losing 2-0 was clearly burdensome for Inter and now have to do extra work to win, but I think it's impossible because Inter are now a little bit down in performance.

[Boristhecat]

It seems to me that Liverpool is not the kind of team that will play for a draw or just waste time stupidly. They are always focused on the attack (by the way, sometimes this is to their detriment) and even when everything is already decided they try to score more goals. The match will take place at Endfield, this is an additional factor that will drive the players forward. I think the second match will be more effective than the first and Liverpool will win 3-1 or 4-1.

Looking only at the result of the first leg i also agree that Inter has almost zero chance now to advance into the next round after they have lost that match with 0-2. I have watched that whole match though and i have to say that Liverpool was very lucky that they have won that match and even luckier that they even won it with a difference of 2 goals. Inter had several chance to score the first goal in this match and it was very much possible that Inter could have won that game as they were the better team for me.
Now of course Liverpool has the big advantage and they can wait for good counter opportunities. If Inter manages to score an early goal though, then i think everything is possible.

This is a very common situation in football (as well as in any other sport) when one opponent tries, has chances, but cannot realize them. And the second, more skillful opponent gets the most out of literally a meager chance. It's not an accident or luck - it's a skill. I respect Inter, but Liverpool's skill is much higher. Theoretically, Inter could have won "on moral and strong-willed" qualities, but after the result of the first match, this is almost unrealistic.

I think that in the optimal composition, when the Vinicius-Benzema combination plays in Real Madrid, the attack of Real Madrid is at least as good as that of PSG. I don't remember saying otherwise, maybe I put it wrong (or you misunderstood). As for the result, when two strong clubs meet (and not Bayern - Salzburg for example), any result is not surprising.

Two goals is not an easy thing for Inter Milan to chase, so it makes sense to say that Inter Milan have lost hope of turning things around, especially the team they face Liverpool, as we can see at the moment Liverpool are in a positive situation in the Premier League and League Champions.
Inter's chances to turn things around are now very slim.

Although Inter Milan still have a chance in the second leg later, but I think their chances of qualifying for the next round are quite small, currently Inter Milan need a miracle to be able to chase two goals at least to equalize the score at Anfield, but as we know, Liverpool are currently in quite good especially if they play at anfield, of course liverpool get great motivation to beat whoever the opponent is.

When Liverpool already have the capital in the 1st leg, the heaviest demands for Inter Milan will be a very heavy burden to be able to excel in a situation that is not too favorable. When viewed from the readiness of the two, Liverpool breathed more freely than Inter, who still swallowed the burden of chasing 3 points which would be very ineffective. Inter just need to play as well as possible, our results don't need to depend on the current statistics.

I think Inter will lose again in the second leg. Inter have been inconsistent in the last few games, even though they are now in third place in the Italian league standings. last they were held in a draw by their city rivals. This is in contrast to Liverpool, which they haven't lost in the last 5 matches even though they always come out as winners. this is a reference for me to see the second leg match. Liverpool is even now a serious competitor for Manchester city which has long been at the top of the English league standings.

The EPL and Serie A tensions are also different and teams from the EPL always look stronger, moreover Liverpool is a big team which in recent seasons has always been part of the title race there. Now with a 2-0 lead on aggregate, of course it's a tough job for Inter. Also, I agree it is very possible Liverpool will still be serious in the second leg, of course Inter must be able to accept defeat again and with that Inter will return to focus on the race for the Serie A title.

Do not doubt Liverpool's ability this season because Inter may not be their match when they are in good form like now. Liverpool are unbeaten in 14 consecutive match in various competitions and they have also won the EFL Cup title some time ago from Chelsea.

Inter will not win the second leg at Anfield and I am very sure about that. So even though Inter can try to back to win the match, in the end Liverpool's pretty good performance so far will be very difficult for them to match. Liverpool will qualify for the next round easily and I expect the final from them this season. A draw is a safe result for the second leg for Liverpool, but a win is a target that must be achieved to maintain a good form.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Everyone also recognizes Bayern is a good team and one of the candidates to win the Champions League trophy. Moreover, Bayern is already
experienced in the Champions League competition, they have won 6 Champions League trophies and managed to become second place 5 times.
This means that Bayern really understands how to win the Champions League trophy, I think it would be very good if Salzburg finally managed
to draw with Bayern in the first leg. But of course in the second leg Bayern will try to win the game, and it looks like there's very little chance
Salzburg will stop Bayern. So there is a very big chance for Bayern to beat Salzburg in the second leg, especially since the second leg will be
played at the Allianz Arena stadium, it is very difficult to prevent Bayern from winning. I am very optimistic that Bayern will qualify for the next round.

I think the same as you, Bayern has been at the forefront and has a lot of experience, in addition to this experience helps a lot in these cases, although we are currently experiencing difficult times, full of pandemic, and in possible wars that experience can be affected, you just have to look at how the Spanish team Barcelona is at the moment, they can't buy a good player because financially they're in very bad shape, and they need a good defense, and they've won many Champions, and this hasn't helped them at all At the moment, the good thing about football is that nothing is written and anything can happen.


I particularly see Arsenal as a team with higher morale, however Inter can give us a good surprise, the Italian teams play very well against the English, their defense is decisive and counterattacks are their greatest strength, I think that in this case Inter has a very good option, I know most of them will go for ARSENAL that is due to their last games as they have been seen..

Inter have not shown good form in recent weeks. It would make sense if in this match, Liverpool dominated and beat Inter. Because the performances of the two in the domestic league are very much different, even for Liverpool, their performance in the UCL is quite impressive, and I also believe, liverpool will win with score 2 - 0. And, if Inter want to focus on Serie A, then in this match they will not playing all out.

inter is at its worst moment, they lost against sassuolo, then lost against and then draw against genoa which is a weak team from the series A, with that bad result going to play against a strong team like liverpool should not be an easy task, the liverpool is in a good moment, they have scored a lot of goals they may also be able to score a lot of goals in the game against Inter. as a liverpool fan i hope that liverpool wins this game

Although Liverpool are looking pretty good so far with their unbeaten record, but you shouldn't underestimate Inter. As far as I know, Liverpool won the first leg in an unusual way where they won despite not playing well. Inter played quite well during the match but they were just unlucky to score against Liverpool.

There is potential that can be expected from Inter in the second leg because a 2-goal advantage in the first leg will never guarantee Liverpool will definitely qualify for the next round. Inter can fix that in the second leg and that's not impossible in football. I know that Liverpool are the favourites, but Inter should not be underestimated.
