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

[blackened515]

The Chelsea Vs Real Madrid match is oncoming. After the first half of the game ended with 1-2 victory to Madrid. Benzema scored another goal immediately the second half kicked off, making the score 1-3. Although, Chelsea are playing quite well. But, their chances of equalizing the score are slim. As this stage, Real Madrid are probably likely to win the game. However, I wasn't expecting Chelsea to concede so many goals. I'm disappointed.

[ShowOff]

Benzema it’s raining faster in London. The goals scored by Benzema can be explained as a lesson. Chelsea on the other hand got over the shock in a short time and got the goal as a result. I think Chelsea will play more aggressive football in the second half. I haven't seen such an enjoyable game in a long time.

wow, Benzema scored another heatrick, that's great. Chelsea did not play as expected and it seems a lot of people have had the wrong predictions about them in this match. Chelsea completely failed to stop Benzema and their failure this season in the Champions League is very likely now if Real Madrid win this match by more than 3 goals. Curious whether Benzema will score his 4th goal today?

It is like a nightmare for Chelsea now. They kept their hopes up after scoring a goal and making the score 2-1. But at the beginning of the second half, Real Madrid scored another goal. Benzema had a huge opportunity thanks to Mendy's big mistake and completed his performance to a hat-trick finally. He is shining bright tonight like he was against PSG in the rematch too. Benzema is inevitable for any kind of teams in the Champions League as it seems.    I think Real Madrid won't come across any surprise and will win this game.

Ha, Real almost 4/1 was just too sweet of a deal, wasn't it? And paid off handsomely (yes I know, still time to play but no way Chelsea comes back to draw after a masterclass hattrick from the guy I keep saying makes the difference in Champions League -- not to mention Modric and Vini. Pretty happy with this, not cashing out with 30 mins to play, may the jinx gods stay away.

Actually ended up watching the Villareal game (heck of a game in some ways) but keeping an eye on London tie.

Agree with what you said it's difficult for them now to catch up even with the more possession they showed but it wasn't enough.
they were too careless at the back and indeed this was used well by Benzema.
Credit score I add to this player he really is a nightmare for his opponents. the moves he makes always result in good things.
this is again a massacre for Chelsea after previously in the domestic league got the same result

[D-law]

Hat trick against the Champions of League 1
Hat trick against the world Champions.
So tell me, who's next ?
 Finally Thomas Tuchel got defeated by a Spanish side.
Further damage's on them against Chelsea in the premier league e.

[Smartvirus]

I didn't expect Benzema to do a hat-trick again the same as playing against PSG this is a big threat for Chelsea because he is one of the players who continues to score goals.

It seems the game was all that he could think of while in the dressing room. Barely a minute into the second half and he has got his desired hat-trick in a consecutive game, first PSG and now Chelsea  E. Mendy was so silly to have caused that defensive blunder with K. Benzema around the corner and hope for K. Benzema not to capitalise on that.
Again, was taking N. Kante off to be replaced by H. Ziyech a good choice for Thomas Tuchel? I don't know but, it didn't settle right with me, nope! Which ever way it is, Chelsea has still got to loose and there won't be any come backs in the returning leg.

Benzema always amazes me with his performances on the pitch. He showed great ability by scoring goals repeatedly. I want one more goal for Benzema to give this great performance. the last minute of the first half would normally be much more dangerous for Chelsea. Heatrick for the umpteenth time in the best condition and Real Madrid really saved Benzema.

[darxiaomi]

Benzema form is insane in this last month, he deserves now the gold ballon, but everybody knows this year the gold ballon can be for one of the winning players of the FIFA World Cup like always.

Benzema put a lot of pressure but its a lot of luck when he press the goalkeppers a lot of goal he make this way.

[BIT-BENDER]

Let's talk about Villarreal FC vs Bayern Munich. Not going as many expected it, from the start Villarreal has taken it to Bayern Munich and stopped there Normal control of the game, and I can say Villarreal has been a little bit unlucky they should have increased their goal Tally to at least 3 goals.
Now we down to the last Minutes and much pressure would be on Villarreal to maintain their lead, and not allow Bayern to get the precious away goal.

[Rruchi man]

It is like a nightmare for Chelsea now. They kept their hopes up after scoring a goal and making the score 2-1. But at the beginning of the second half, Real Madrid scored another goal.

It is not like Real Madrid have been exceptional, they've played their regular football. They have just made better use of the opportunities they have had and  having a world class striker like Benzema has also been a plus.

It looked like Chelsea had some hope coming into the second half having pulled one back before the halftime, but that easy goal that Real Madrid added to triple their lead has made Chelsea's hope slimer and has increased Benzema's hattrick tally. Mendy looks to me to have lost his confidence, having conceded seven goals now in two games from the EPL and now this UCL encounter.

Chelsea at the moment (10 minutes to the end) need to try to score another goal and not conceed another, so when they visit Real Madrid's home, the task doesn't become too herculean.

The score has become 1-3 it is difficult, it seems that Chelsea's efforts to reverse the situation, the most important thing is that the defense must be tightened because if Madrid finds an opportunity then it is dangerous and produces another goal, the defeat of the EPL in a row to the champions league, and now Madrid is able to overthrow Chelsea even though head to head unbeaten from Real Madrid.

Yes, Benzema did it back-to-back in his last 2 Champions League games and he now looks really wild as a number 9. The competition for top scorer with Lewandowski is getting tighter, but Benzema will probably be first if he advances to the semi-finals.

I think Chelsea played better in the second half even though they conceded an early goal by Benzema. They managed to create several chances where Lukaku still missed with his header. Real Madrid will defend this win and they step 1 foot to semi-final this season.

[Woodie]

I don't think punters have had a good day at the office with the current scores am seeing. Imagine Bayern Munich getting beat by a Villarreal side that isn't so familiar with champions League football, my my my . Btw Villarreal didn't just win but they were the better team here today hope they will be ready when they go to Germany.

[jakdanyel]

I'm just loving the Chelsea v Real Madrid match now. Real Madrid had a great start to the match thanks to Benzema's two superb headers by only a three-minute interval. After that, I was like that was it and Chelsea were going to have big struggles. But Chelsea still managed to score their goal finally in fifteen minutes. And this was another header by Havertz. It is a tough day for the goalkeepers indeed.    Now it is halftime by a 1-2 score. But if the match goes on like this, then Real Madrid might still win.

i even keep my tv remote far enough away so as not to move the channel now
Well Benzema is again and again a frightening specter for their opponents. 3 minutes 2 goals is something that is quite good to see. His movement is absolutely incredible and it can be said that he is performing quite well now.
Chelsea cut the gap but it's not enough now for them

Chelsea are just in a desperate condition now. They lost the game by 3-1 in Stamford Bridge and it was a huge hit to them. I'm not sure if they can manage to recover at this point. It is football and everything is possible any time of course. But if we look at this realistically, I don't think that Real Madrid would let them achieve their goal in Santiago Bernabeu. They just need to keep the current level of performance and this would be enough for them to advance to next round. And btw, Benzema had a hat-trick in this match which was lovely.

[Sterbens]

I think that this game has been the most amazing one among the games in this round so far. Both of them are very big teams and there is a very quick playing style by each teams which made me happy a lot. I wouldn't like to see one side trying to secure a certain score by playing defensively. It just kills the joy of a game directly. Real Madrid are 2-1 ahead for now. And the best player of the first half was Benzema I think. He even missed a hat-trick chance too but he can still make it. Can't wait to see the second half!

Actually, Chelsea has played well, but Real Madrid is much better. Not in vain for more than 90 minutes if the game goes on like this. Because we feel satisfied served with a score of 3 by one person. And yes, Karim Benzema became the top Heatrick, especially when the 22nd minute and 24th minute made Chelsea's mentality go down.

From Chelsea point of view, it seems that they did not give their best at all, but unfortunately, with their current condition, they will be very unprepared against Real Madrid.

[GxSTxV]

A great match for real madrid outside their stadium they have done 90% of qualification today, they managed to score 3 goal by the magician karim benzima who is really getting use to score hat-tricks like he did against PSG, even Chelsea played well too but had made few mistakes in defending. The third goald is totally the goalkeeper' fault and gave a free score to benzima. In my opinion everything is clear now. Next match at Bernabeu which gives more chances for real madrim to confirm their qualifications. As we saw also the coach has entred Gareth bale in the last minutes of the game which means it's possible for him to take karim benzima's place in return match this april 11

[hyudien]

I don't know what we will see in the second half, but I think Chelsea's problematic defense will still show itself and Real Madrid will score.

Real Madrid gave something special to a Chelsea club that was in bad shape. Not only yesterday against Brentford in the Premier League. The instability of the formation now also shown by Chelsea players that we can see is something that is difficult for us to witness. It seems that in the second half, I hope that Chelsea can evaluate the mistakes made in the first half and minimize the gap.

[KTChampions]

Chelsea press quite well but Real Madrid create chances and even though they conceded a goal before this they had 2 good chances to bring the score to 3-0. I don't know what we will see in the second half, but I think Chelsea's problematic defense will still show itself and Real Madrid will score.
Villarreal shows amazing efficiency - two shots on target and two goals (even if one is canceled). Bavaria can't do anything yet.

  The Chelsea defense did not disappoint me. In fact, this third goal broke all the substitutions and Tuchel's mood that he made at half-time.
Chelsea are good, but Real are even better and with a two-goal advantage it's hard to imagine that at the Santiago Bernabeu they'll have trouble reaching an overall victory.
LOL Bavaria? What kind of stupid patterns? I wonder if they can bounce back at home like they did with Salzburg?

[RapTarX]

I was able to recover my loss last time I had with Atletico
Sad that I lost the match for Bayern.
It was unexpected to get 3-1 win for Real Madrid but I had expected something this TBH. While Bayern lost was totally out of my expectation.
It was a nice reveal anyway. I have shared that Chelsea would be best pick for Madrid and that's what happened LOL.

[vv181]

Btw Villarreal didn't just win but they were the better team here today hope they will be ready when they go to Germany.

I couldn't count how many goal chances they have missed, they should have ended the match with 2 or 3 goal leads. This match is unreal though, both teams play fast-paced gameplay, and as in result, we can clearly see how good the Villareal defences are.

Regarding another match, though luck for Chelsea, I doubt the second leg would do any difference.
