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

[Razmirraz]

Thanks to Villarreal for providing such a great spectacle, the first half became the stage for Villarreal. As I've said before, Liverpool are not an easy team to beat.  Liverpool took advantage of the second half after the Villarreal players ran out of breath. Three goals from Liverpool players in the second half made Agg 2-5.
Congratulations to Liverpool for making it to the final, all Liverpool staff and their loyal fans deserve to celebrate the success of their favorite team making it to the final.

[Despairo]

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.

Right, at least Villarreal giving a good fight against Liverpool unlike the first leg, they really got humiliated by Liverpool. It seems Villarreal is put all their power and stamina on the first half, but the second half Liverpool comeback and beat Villarreal. It was expected Villarreal would lose since their best striker e.g. Danjuma didn't play. I don't know what's the reason Unai Emery make that decision.

Liverpool in the first half played as if they were already in the final, but Villarreal had a different opinion and they were determined to win. The second half put everything in place, Liverpool woke up and showed who is stronger on the field. Today will be a very interesting match, Real Madrid is not going to give up just like that, but City are in great shape. I think that the second leg may not be as open as the first one was, and City will not lose, maybe there will be a draw.

Liverpool great come-back in the second half against Villarreal was remarkable. The semi finals was really tough and entertaining to watch. Villarreal scored in the early minutes of the game to them infront in the game. Then score another close to stoppage time. Villarreal boss, Unai Emery really needed a comeback in the first halve an got it. Later on, when the game starts second half. A lot of things change in the game, Villarreal then applied a defensive game in the second half. While the Liverpool boss, made an early changes in the early minutes of second half, substitute Jota for Diaz. The pattern of the reds was forcing and dominating the game while Villarreal pulled back hoping to get a draw in the second. But failed when Fabinho strike the ball and the goal keeper failed to get hold of the ball.l, which make the game 2-1. Later on, Sadio mane and Diaz shine in the game, to put Liverpool in front. As for the Villarreal side, Capoue was issued his second yellow in the game and was out. Liverpool thrashed Villarreal 3-2 making the score aggregate 5-2. The reds have finally sealed their place in the champions league finals.

One place has been filled by Liverpool in the final, Liverpool are lucky because the opponent is easier than the other semi finalists. Even though Manchester City won in the first leg, not necessarily Man City was able to maintain the victory at the Bernabeu. Real Madrid are in great shape, going into the Second leg in high spirits as Real Madrid have just secured the La Liga trophy. Both teams will show mutual buying and selling of attacks, Real Madrid want to catch up with them, while Man City want to get away goals to increase the victory.

Villareal put up a great match in the first half but it all fell apart after Liverpool turned things around to score 2-3 honestly it was an interesting match I guessed wrongly thought the match would not be this exciting but congrats Liverpool to another final.

There are many quotes on social media that mohsalah wants Real Madrid to return to the final he wants revenge after being injured earlier which had to leave the field and Liverpool lost, if this meets again then there is a possibility that mohsalah will reply with a win, I hope this can be met and they will figth back.

Just watched the match in the first half, and honestly thought that Villareal would repeat their success, they managed to put pressure on Liverpool and didn't want to watch my favorite team get eliminated so I preferred not to watch the second half match, when I saw the final score it was quite surprising for Liverpool to come out from the pressure and scored three goals and proved they deserved to be in the final

[RILWAN]

Villarreal was supposed to repeat the success their recorded in the second half of the match how can Liverpool come from zero goals to 3 scores in the second half quiet an amazing play by Liverpool.

What a superb comeback from Liverpool. I am happy that they have reached the final. Villareal deserves some praise too for a great first half in which Liverpool in all honesty was not the better team. Not always the most beautiful football to watch of Villareal this Champions League campaign but truely impressive. For a team that played less than ten years ago in second Spanish league and is only 7th in la liga, is knocking out Bayern and creating a game like this against an outstanding Liverpool truely remarkable!

It was a high intense classic and interesting match. The first half display they put on show exactly why they are in the semis and they did make Liverpool suffer.  Villarreal surprised Liverpool in the first half dominated the game. In the second half, Liverpool dominated, showed them that they are more experienced than Villarreal. Liverpool team are unstoppable and difficult to play against. Tactically, they are a good side and have good players that can shoulder responsibilities and also have a rebrand system of football call Counter press system. Villarreal fought like hell in the first half, but switched to a defensive game plan and let Liverpool run them ragged.

Villarreal was not the better team to win the semifinals and head to the finals. Liverpool are the favourite for that. Villarreal played such an interesting game during the first half but couldn’t defend their goals to the end of the match. Luiz Diaz really made a great change to the Liverpool team when he came in the second half. I am not surprised Villarreal lost the match to Liverpool but they played a very nice game in the first half that deserves an accolades being given to them.
It was a very fierce battle till now for Villarreal, having knocked out top teams in Europe to get to this stage, they earned my respect from now. Hard luck for them this time but am sure they’ll do better next season.

What an interesting match this is going to be when Liverpool meets Real Madrid in the finals. Mohammed Salah will definitely want a comeback for what happened when they met last in the finals. But it will be more interesting if Sergio Ramos was still in Real Madrid. But I don’t see Real Madrid qualifying to the finals today. Manchester city played great game and have higher chances of qualifying than them, but let’s watch out tonight and see.

Liverpool wasted their advantage by allowing Villareal to have a very early goal that gives Villareal players more belief on what they can do. If Liverpool were not conceded too early, Villareal will not fight too well like that. Anyway, Klopp did his great jobs in rest time after the first half. Liverpool played more seriously and better in the second half.

Now they have a third Champions League final in last 4 seasons. It is very impressive and a good mark on how strong they are.

Villareal put up a great match in the first half but it all fell apart after Liverpool turned things around to score 2-3 honestly it was an interesting match I guessed wrongly thought the match would not be this exciting but congrats Liverpool to another final.

It is unbelievable to see Villareal scored two goals in the fisrt half and equalized the aggregated result like that. It is more surprising to see Liverpool scored 3 goals and come back. One more surprise, two goals of Liverpool scored under scrotch of Villareal goalkeeper.

Villarreal's struggle and unyielding spirit should be appreciated unlike in the first match where Villarreal couldn't do much at Anfield, where in the match this morning Liverpool were almost surprised by the hosts Villarreal who scored 2 goals in the first half through Boulaye Dia's goal and a header goal from Francis Coquelin opened hope for the hosts, but everything changed in the second half where Liverpool showed that they are strong candidates to win the Champions League this season where Liverpool successfully made a comeback by scoring 3 goals at once in the second half which put Liverpool ahead on aggregate 5- 2 and qualify for the finals against the winner between Manchester city and real Madrid

Villarreal should have won the gamei it would have affected Liverpool performance for the rest of their game, Villarreal made a better performance that Liverpool were so nervous,  it was as if at that point no hope for Liverpool to meet up. After Villarreal had scored the 2 goals they should  have put eyes on Liverpool by not giving Liverpool any chance or opportunity for the ball to reach the their net, Liverpool is a strong team indeed to succeed in scoring 3 goals within a short time.

It was a good match
after the first half I also hoped for something more for Villareal, unfortunately it wasn't like that
He gave all the first half draining his forces, Liverpool wisely managed and let this force vent and then hit hard in the second half.

This is football, the unpredictable can happen. Villarreal started the first half very well, Unai Emery men managed to close the first half with a score of 2-0, while making Agg 2-2. In the second half Villarreal started to run out of gas, Liverpool used this opportunity well. Three goals were successfully created by Liverpool against Villarreal at the same time closing the match with a score of 2-3 or Agg 2-5 for Liverpool's victory. Previously I hoped that Liverpool would go to the final, because it would present an exciting match in the last round on the most prestigious stage among European clubs.

There was an incredible difference between Liverpool playing in the first half and Liverpool playing in the second half. The same can be said for Villarreal. They lived by incredible faith at the Villarreal halftime. However, here Klopp stepped in and Luis Diaz's move brought action to Liverpool. Considering the mistakes made by the Villarreal goalkeeper in the first and last goal, it would not be wrong to say that Villarreal lost with goalkeeper errors. Meanwhile, Mane is an incredible player who has scored 15 goals. Let's see which team Liverpool will match in the final.

[davis196]

I think that Unai Emery choose the wrong tactic for the game.
After the early goal,Villarreal had to step back and play in a more defensive style.Then,they had to seek for a second goal at the end of the second half.I know that this seems risky,but wasting all your energy in the first half and losing momentum in the second half against a team like Liverpool seems like a suicide.
Great work done by Jurgen Klopp.He did the right replacements to improve his team's play and he managed to motivate his players during the half time.
I'm expecting an English final at this year's edition of the UEFA Champions league.

Villarreal started the game with unparalleled intensity as they completely rattled Liverpool. They actually made quite a strong start to the game as they had them completely shell-shocked. Villarreal's press to win major duels and transitionary passing had Liverpool quite caught up. The sheer determination to go through was evident. It was a shame they had to go out this way despite a valiant effort. It is unfortunate that you cannot keep a good team out through out the game. Liverpool found their mojo following the restart, I knew that Liverpool will come alive in the second half and with the intensity and energy Villarreal had used in the first half to score both goals, I knew they won't be able to maintain that energy and composure in the second half.
