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

[terrorJR]

I didn't see Liverpool could win the game from 2-0 ht can't believe what my eyes saw at the second half what a massive comeback wishing Liverpool to the victory of the cup.

Thats the beauty of good coaching and squad depth. The introduction of Luiz Diaz added a different dimension to Liverpool struggling attack line and since them they dominated the tie and score 3 goals to get through to the final of the champions league on 5-2 goals aggregrate. Liverpool backline remains weak; can they be UEFA Champions League winner with such defensive performance ?

in this case there is no question about the quality of the Liverpool players, especially for their front lines.
Klopp will not be too worried about this because indeed the core and reserves there are playing very well and responding to trust after being given the opportunity to play.

however, with the substitutions made by Liverpool, they are really on point, they can even come back and score 3 goals in just 12 minutes

Villareal has again tried to make the best of it at home. They got off to a great start and at the end of the first half there seemed to be a stunt in the making. In the 2nd half the best seemed completely gone and Liverpool didn't really get into serious trouble anymore. When that 2-1 fell it became difficult, when it became 2-2 the fairy tale was over. Still a very nice and successful adventure for Villareal, and financially they have also improved considerably. Let's see if Real Madrid can beat City, an all-English final is so boring.

Villarreal ruled out of the UEFA champions league semi final wasn't a shock to me, we all saw it coming. Losing at Liverpool's home in the first leg was the beginning of their dissappointment, they lost the opportunity of qualifying to the final in the first leg of the game. Though they tried more than we expected, winning the Europa league last season and also reaching the semi final of the UEFA champions league is a huge success for the team these season, and it will boost their pattern of play.

First of all Kloop deserves a standing ovation because he was superb in making changes tonight, the victory of Liverpool tonight shows that football is all about formation and experience. The introduction of Diaz brought a great change to the Liverpool team, they dominated and got the 3goals in the second half, a very big congratulations to the Liverpool team.

Someone actually said an all-english team is boring? You don't have to watch or bet if you feel that way hehe. I prefer Liverpool vs Real Madrid right now but it doesn't really matter if the Finals is played by two team from the same league or not. What's important is they actually earned a spot there. I remember some All-English Finals and I thought the match was so intense.

[Slimzeee]

If Villareal had won tonight. It would have been in world history books from now and years to come. I for once thought it was already over for Liverpool after that amazing first half, i mean Liverpool could barely put passes together, so many errors and wrong passes. I guess Klopp’s dressing room speech must be really superb cos it was a 306 degrees turn around in play. Congratulations to them. Thats what Champions do. Still looking forward to an all England final.

Honestly, I didn't expect the early excitement that Villarreal instigated. I wasn't interested about the match in the first place because I knew it was a walk over for Liverpool. I was on my computer when I got a half time score alert to be 2 goals in favour of Villarreal and making the aggregate to be 2:2. I quickly turned on the computer.
But when I watched the highlights, I knew that Villarreal came too early.  45 mins was ok for Liverpool to change the story.
I was so much convinced that the introduction of Diaz will change the whole narrative and it did.

Villarreal really made a great show tonight in the first 45 minutes of the game. I never believed they could render a heart attack to Liverpool in today's game not to talk oh dominating the whole first half of the game. They really would have made world history indeed!

Only God knows the words Klopp must have discharged to the players in the dressing room after the first half, cause the first half game was unlike the Liverpool we know not until the second half of the game that they have to prove themselve.

I think team like Manchester United need a borrow knowlege of the speech Klopp ushered to his players. It's really gonna keep them strong for the Europa come next season.
Lol..!

J.klopp's prowess in leading Liverpool 3 times over 5 years to the final made J.klopp including the newest coach from the first I have put a bet on Liverpool's victory.

I was like you at first not so enthusiastic about the Villarreal vs Liverpool match, I just turned on the television that was broadcasting the match.
But I watch out of focus, because while doing other things. Because I thought Liverpool would beat Villarreal easily, and I was wrong.
I started to focus on watching the Villarreal vs Liverpool match when Villarreal scored their second goal and made the aggregate the same.

I really couldn't believe it at the time, Liverpool were two goals down in the first half. I'm quite amazed by Villarreal they have such high spirits to be
able to qualify for the final, but it turns out Liverpool are still Liverpool. Which they can turn things around by scoring 3 goals in close time. This makes
the Villarreal players frustrated, Villarreal finally got a red card in 85 minutes. But overall the Villarreal vs Liverpool match was very entertaining,
I hope the Real Madrid vs Man City match will be entertaining too, especially since Man City only wins by one goal on aggregate. This means that
both teams still have an equal chance of qualifying for the final, and that should make the second leg match more interesting.

Yep. It was incredible that they can score 2 goals in the first half, it made the aggregate 2-2.
Liverpool must be shocked, but luckily they changed the strategy in the second half and it was effective.

I think team like Manchester United need a borrow knowlege of the speech Klopp ushered to his players

Not only about the speech, but Man United coach also needs to learn how Klopp changes the strategy. It won't work effectively if Klopp only relies on his speech, he must be aware to change the strategy or gameplay at that time. He instructed the players to be more aggressive and focus on building more attacks.

Indeed, although Villarreal finally should end in this way, salute to Villarreal where they were not beaten easily by Liverpool. They played more defensively, but they could even make a big thing by scoring 2 goals from 2 shots on target, how effective and accurate 100%.
It was little bit worrying to see the goals in the first half by Villarreal, Liverpool was also probably shocked in the first half. But fortunately in the second half, Liverpool could turn back the game and won the match.

I also really hope that Real Madrid will win against City although this will not be easy. Final between England-Spain will be more interesting

I don't feel like that, Champion and Premier League have a different atmosphere. If this happens, Manchester City will be determined to get the first time title. I don't have a choice also when it happens. we have to see tonight, Madrid has many experiences in the champions league while The city is not enough but, the squad has already qualified for the winner. both are only waiting for the little mistake.

[skarais]

Of course I'm very bad that I didn't get to watch the second leg match between Villareal and Liverpool because it looks like a very stressful match especially when Villareal managed to score 2 goals in the first half. But Liverpool's response in the second half with 3 goals proved they deserved to advance to the final compared to Villareal. Obviously I have to congratulate those who have reached the final, and that is just one step away with the title.

For the next match, I hope Manchester City will also make it to the final even though the second leg is played at Real Madrid. A 4-3 win in the first leg should be a good capital to hope for success in the second leg, I'm looking forward to this match and certainly won't miss it.

Indeed, the match between Villareal and Liverpool was a little tense. and it's a shame if you missed it. because before the game started I suspected that Villareal would not be able to score against Liverpool. but they gave me an unexpected surprise. although in the end Liverpool were able to turn things around in round 2. because at the beginning of the match Liverpool seemed a bit careless. and the victory they deserved.
congrats to liverpool.

but I also appreciate that villareal that can come this far is already a good achievement.

for manchester city which is in good form, i think it has a big chance to win the game. but real madrid always surprises in the 2nd leg. it will be a very fierce match

Now that Liverpool have secured a ticket to the Champions League final this season, last night's match was won by Liverpool, then waiting for another match between Real Madrid and Manchester City, and later who will win the match will be against Liverpool in this season's Final, Liverpool played very relaxed in the first half, so they conceded two goals, but in the second half Liverpool played well enough, so they were able to score 3 goals, I would like Liverpool to play Real Madrid in the Final

I think the atmosphere of the champions league must be different from any league because the Champions League is an arena for the best teams in their respective leagues, so the winner deserves the title of best of the best. Real Madrid has a great history in the Champions League but Man City with all its composition is also an opponent to be reckoned with. So whoever will face Liverpool in the final is definitely a strong team that deserves to be a champion candidate.

Fans should be proud of their team, Villarreal almost made it but their breathe wasn't enough for a comeback in full time. After it went 2-0 Liverpool was very nervous but when first goal came the atmosphere changed quickly. Villarreal was already the underdog and they had a great Champions League season. I don't know when they will achieve it again. Liverpool is in finals, let's see which team will be their opponent. Manchester City has advantage for now.

Applause standing for Villareal fighting on second leg champion league last night almost success make Liverpool have play on extra time before losing 2-3. I think high pressure on first half show by Villareal most fantastic and scored 2 goals but they was forget active with attacking and loss chance with defensive area. But the achievement from Villareal most fantastic and they are stronger team success scored 2 goals to Liverpool. Although have forget with champion league next season but Villareal have impressive performance trough eliminated top team from Juventus until Bayern Munich.

[Zlantann]

Another technical masterclass from Unai Emery and Jurgen Klopp. Unai promised that it is going to be a different game in Spain. Liverpool had to work hard and suffer for this victory. The goals from Boulaye Dia and Francis Coquelin in the first half put Liverpool under pressure. But the turnaround came in the second have immediately the £50million Columbian Luis Diaz was introduced. He became an instant terror to the defense of Villarreal and Liverpool turned the game around. Like warriors Emery and his squad fought for survival but I think the god of soccer has decided that Liverpool would be the champion of Europe this season.
