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

[lalabotax]

I don't know what to say Madrid is really amazing today I thought they were over but it was wrong the score turned 2-1 and continued to extra time
In Extra Time Madrid managed to score one more goal to 3-1 Madrid did it for the second time

My heart's beating so hard.
OMG, like the final match.
IT's so worried when Real Madrid left 2 goals, I thought that there is no chance again. But it's like a miracle in the minute of 90'.
OMG, Congratulations to Real Madrid.
I also salute Man City so much, they also played amazingly. Both have struggled with their best efforts. Wow.

Real Madrid - Man City full time
3 - 1
Aggregate 6 - 5

[Oluwa-btc]

I was about chanting bye-bye Madrid!! But I ended up Chanting Hala Madrid!!
They're are indeed the best team in the world, masterclass from both Benzema and Rodrygo as they head the Paris.
Congratulations to Madrid, Pep Guardiola failed for the second time in two years as he has also failed to beat Real Madrid for the third time in the Champions League.

[Raflesia]

The match was over Real Madrid again advanced to the final against Liverpool 29/5 I didn't expect the game to be this interesting with 1 minute one goal and two minutes being two goals that's the greatness of Real Madrid which is impossible but in this match it happened.

Mohsalah managed to meet Real Madrid again and they will meet in the final together to win this prestigious UCL trophy, so I say this match was a complete surprise from Real Madrid in 90 and 90+1 minutes.

Congratulations on advancing to the final.

[MAAManda]

It was a very amazing game that Real Madrid showed us, they did something that was almost impossible to happen, after an aggregate score of 3 - 5 made by Riyad Mahrez, Rodrygo was able to create 2 goals in just 2 minutes

Indeed the team mentality cannot lie, Real Madrid will always be one of the favorite teams in the Champions League, with this result we will look back at the Champions League Final between Liverpool and Real Madrid, this final will be a very interesting match.

Real is actually playing quite bad for most of the time and they are hanging on by thread while their opponents are making chances and missing them. Then comes 10-15 minutes when Real starts to play unbelievably well, they make few chances and they score all of them. Same story every game in champions league knockout stage for Real. Can't believe they are still in, let alone favorites to qualify at the moment  

If they are loosing in final I am placing bets on them like crazy.

There is only one thing that made them win this match and qualify for the final, and that is the will not to give up even with just a few minutes remaining and the rest is luck. Real Madrid were lucky Manchester City failed to hold on to their lead and Madrid were also lucky about Benzema's penalty and now, congratulations to them. I didn't say anything, they weren't great because they were just lucky not to fail with their bad game.

Yup, mucho bueno.  Real was kinda nervy for most of the match until Rodrygo. But so is City.  It's very disappointing.  And right now with just a few minutes left, City should quit with the tiki taka thing and play direct football.  They're looking like soys out there.

And you might want to join us in the other UCL thread, the one JollyGood started if you want to talk more football. Less noise and less spammers over there as the thread is self moderated.

I also have the same thoughts, of course I think Real Madrid is too bad to qualify in this way to the final. hahaha, but good thing they got away. Oh yeah, I'll be there.

Incredible what happened.

I want to see Real Madrid winning now and Ceferin give the Cup to Perez.

It will be hilarious.

In the Champions League, Real Madrid is good at making magic goals. Magic because we never know when they will score. Madrid may look normal in the game, especially in the first half, but when they get the ball in front of goal, Real Madrid players are so fierce and smart. The winning mentality can't be fooled.

Thats the beauty of the champions league; this is why it is called the biggest tournament in the whole world. This season champions league has been epic; with Real Madrid having numerous comeback victorys right from the quarterfinals to the final of the tournaments. Will Liverpool be able to overcome Carlo comeback kings ?

Manchester City let Real Madrid too much in the last minute because the slightest mistake could turn things around. I always enjoy the last minute when Real Madrid play, incredible always surprises. Had a little worry in the remaining extra time, because the captain Benzema had sat on the bench and was replaced by Ceballos. Previously there were many moments where Manchester City should have finished the game but the opportunity was wasted.
Next match we will see the final Real Madrid - Liverpool guys.

I feel like watching magic shows instantly the score changed for Real Madrid win at first I thought there was a problem with scoreboard but after checking the livescore is real
Now I believe that mental and experience are very important Madrid is not nervous when first conceded they turn things around in 2 minutes this is like magic

[Igebotz]

Edit:  I think this guy below me is a Real Madrid supporter.  Falconer?

Hahaha, now how. Real Madrid is really good isn't it?
Real Madrid are not so bad with luck and they have been very successful so far. The penalty prize has helped them to take the lead and they will probably win this match against Manchester City. Anything can still happen, but I think Madrid will qualify.

This was an epic prediction, the Real Madrid stadium is a strange ground, you have not won until you left the stadium because surprises always come when they are least expected, that was a beautiful comeback, can't believe a super team like Manchester City would bottle a 5-3 aggregate in less than 10 minutes to play. Man football is a crazy sport, and this is a message to Manchester City and PSG that not every trophy money can buy. Both teams have been struggling to win it in the last five years, but it's not happening.

Madrid, congratulations!

[visionE2]

Ancelotti and his 6 substitutions managed to bring Madrid through to the UCL Final this season. Rodrygo and Camavinga became supersubs that changed the course of the match. Put some respect for Don Carlo!
Nacho also played very well, was good at reading City attacks and failed City counter attacks several times.
Congratulations to Real Madrid for reaching the Champions League final

[Marvelman]

City at 0:1 had a couple of tricks to solve everything, it could have easily ended 0:2, or more. But what I'm talking about is pure luck (or maybe it's karma), whether you have it or not, it's just something that follows you, like a guardian angel ... It's amazing from which 2 situations they turned the game around. One of the biggest comebacks in the history of football definitely. Let's be real, Real deserves a trophy!

[Welsh]

Well, I said I wanted a good game for the neutral, and I ultimately wanted Madrid to nab it, and well that just happened. What a game of football, some decent defense for most of the game, and despite City maybe having the better chances, I always thought Madrid looked like the ones most likely to get ahead, I know that's a weird thing to say, I just feel like their chances they had (which were offside) were better chances. Yeah, they didn't have any shots on target until like the 90th minute, but they've proven that doesn't matter.

That might just be on par with Istanbul. Except, it wasn't a individual effort, it was a great team effort. I think it potentially tops it if they go on to win in the final. Hopefully, that won't be the case for obvious reasons . What a game of football, and I'll be completely honest I'm a little more optimistic of going against Madrid, even with this performance tonight.

[Velvet78]

It was an epic game undoubtedly. Actually the game went on quite boringly at first. And after Manchester City scored and got ahead by 1-0, I was like that was it for Real Madrid. But there was literally a miracle that happened in the last minutes of the game. Rodrygo changed the fate of the game by scoring two goals and we found ourselves in extra time very fast. And in here, Benzema scored a penalty goal which helped them eliminate Manchester City. What a game!

[Marykeller]

2 goals in 2 minutes and now they are going on extra time.

Incredible.

What a wonderful turnaround in a flash. Unbelievable. In under a minute 2 goals have been scored after believing that Manchester City has won already.
I couldn't believe my eyes with the result am seeing. Should I laugh or cry cos this is unbelievable?
Real Madrid is now leading in extra time 3-1(6-5 aggregate). Hail Madrid

That’s why it’s Real Madrid. All those UCL wins the past years. It’s all about their mentality. They play like they are clueless but they are a different animal in the UCL. This team is unbelievable, pulling miracle after miracle right in front of our eyes. Real Madrid's winning culture has played its part, and always the lesson is in the tents. From the way the first half of the extra time has been, it looks like Man City are rattled. The game changers have been substituted; Kevin Debruyne and Riyad Mahrez. Let see what they have to offer in the remaining half.

This is the exact way Real Madrid pulled a miracle in their match against Chelsea. Making the right substitution at the right time. What made Real Madrid be able to come out to win against Manchester City is that Mahrez and Walker were changed. Is this Luck or miracle that is following Real Madrid's all-around in this UCL. I haven't seen such luck or miracle before in a twinkle of an eye.

[Slow death]

this defeat is a hard blow to the heart of pepe guardiola who worked so hard to make city a good team and today city simply made a mistake in defense to the point of making the mistake of conceding 2 goals in a few minutes, this mistake cost them dearly and maybe they will only come back in a lifetime one of these days, but not so soon because the champions league is something very difficult to reach the final several times in a row and I very much doubt that city will be able to win the champions league in the next 5 years, sad for the pepe guardio, real madrid is a very lucky team, in this league of fields and in la league they managed to get very far by sheer luck, as a real madrid fan i'm happy they managed to get this far even if it's pure luck. Looking at the style of play of real madrid playing against liverpool and how to commit suicide, liverpool definitely benefits a lot from this real madrid victory

[Cookdata]

They can call it magic, but I like to refer to it as "experience with being smart." To be honest, I was concerned at first when neither team scored in the first half, and I lost even more confidence in Real Madrid after Manchester City scored one goal, but I'm not sure how the joy in my heart returned after seeing them perform the tricks they know best. Experience will guide you in difficult times, and that is what helped Real Madrid today. They thrashed PSG, Chelsea, and now Manchester City, indeed Benzema deserves the Ballon d'Or.

[KTChampions]

Another miracle from Real Madrid. Ancelotti once again showed his genius - his decisions turned the game. Tomorrow I will watch this game again, I want to savor how Real have achieved the result - today I spent a lot of energy and nerves while watching the game  
I've seen funny memes about Real Madrid's and Liverpool's path to the final, but there really isn't even a need for memes - just listing the opponents is enough  

[baeva]

Incredible match, Real Madrid in their own style. Scoring 2 goals in the final minutes is unthinkable, but they did it! I'm glad we won't have an English final but a clash which has happened before and Liverpool will obviously want to avenge the previous defeat, which was very upsetting. Manchester City played very well but failed to score more than one goal. I think this match is even worthy of a final...
