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

[_BlackStar]

Why Manchester City are so stupid after leading 3-5 on aggregate, and I don't know what to say about their failure last night. I know they have a good mentality to play against Real Madrid, but I think Guardiola made a big mistake by taking some important players before the game ended. I was expecting a good final between Manchester City and Liverpool but in the end Real Madrid completely crushed my hopes with their big win.

But that's okay, maybe it's time to get revenge for Real Madrid, who beat Liverpool in the final a few seasons ago. We believe Liverpool can, really looking forward to the match. I hope without Ramos Real Madrid are weaker in this final especially in their defence.

Manchester City lacks strong mentality at this level of the Champion's league, they faced a very experienced opponent yesterday. Real Madrid mentality isn't something created in five or ten years. When you are playing for Real Madrid as a player you know you are a part of something much greater than yourself and they have a tradition of winning. I honestly hope this elimination from the champion's league won't affect them negatively in their pursuit of the league title. Ending this season without a trophy will be disaster.

I don't think this is because from a mental point of view, I certainly don't need to doubt the mentality of City's players, especially since they always exude an aura of majesty in front of the opposing players.

but indeed they are at this time especially in this match they are late in responding to changes from Madrid.
They did bring in some defenders to dampen it but indeed Vini's speed and Rodrygo's acceleration slowly paid off. and after the first goal they failed to react which led to them again having to pick up the ball one minute later which put them down instantly

Liverpool FC has been nothing short of amazingly this season. They are actually the team any club would be weary of. From defense down to attack they seems to be doing just great, little wonder why they are favorites to win  a quadruple this season and from all indicators it is doable. It would have been nice to see two English teams face off in the finals but Real Madrid denied us that pleasure. Manchester City should lick their wounds and focus on winning the EPL title

Why Manchester City are so stupid after leading 3-5 on aggregate, and I don't know what to say about their failure last night.

Experience, hard work, taking advantage of opportunities and the host factor were the things that made Real Madrid beat Manchester City in the second leg. Although I'm sure Manchester City played well throughout the game, but overall they lacked composure when Real Madrid pushed them with a quick attack.

Look at the stats of that match and you will surely know that Manchester City were superior in creating chances but they failed to score more than 1 goal throughout the match. One other thing that kept Real Madrid from conceding was that Courtois played really well in that match.

Manchester City should lick their wounds and focus on winning the EPL title

Old wounds and new wounds are equally painful.

I must admit that it was so satisfying to see Real Madrid in final round. They had an unbelievable game against Manchester City and none of the sides would forget about this game easily. The most unforgettable part is going to be the very short time interval that Real Madrid scored two goals in. It brought the final to them surely. And I'm curious whether Real Madrid will be able to maintain this awesome effort against Liverpool also. Because I expect a much stronger team compared to Manchester City. And it might be the time to have their revenge for Real Madrid.

Finally Real Madrid made it to the final, and I think they deserved to be in the final, because Real Madrid proved to have a winning mentality.
I was amazed how Real Madrid managed to score two goals at the end of the second half, it did show the fighting spirit of the Real Madrid players
who didn't give up until the game ended. Actually Man City's mistake was to replace Kevin De Bryune and Riyad Mahrez, because after both players
were replaced, Man City played more defensively and gave Real Madrid a chance to attack. Man City should continue to attack, then this will make it
difficult for Real Madrid to build attacks. Finally after Real Madrid brought in Rodrygo and Asensio, Real Madrid played much more aggressively and
it was proven that these two players contributed greatly to the creation of two Real Madrid goals  at the end of the second half.

Then when entering extra time after the goal from Benzema, actually there is still enough time for Man City to score goals to make the aggregate equal.
But since Kevin De Bryune and Riyad Mahrez are gone, which are two creative players owned by Man City, therefore Man City is very difficult to score goals.
Even Man City tried to appear more attacking by entering Raheem Sterling, but Sterling proved unable to make any contribution.

There are similarities between Liverpool and Real Madrid, namely the level of speed in making a comeback. From what we see this similarity is always shown in the second half where Liverpool and Real Madrid were pressured by points by their opponents in the first half. Because of that, the final will be very dramatic for both clubs.

By having a lot of time to prepare for the final, of course, it is hoped that they can improve their performance to the maximum. Although in their respective leagues only Real Madrid have reached the top.

I'm no longer interested in discussing too much about how Real Madrid won or how Manchester City lost that match because now we're really going to focus on who exactly is going to win the Champions League title this season. I would support Real Madrid to win it, but Liverpool are very ambitious to beat Real Madrid in this season's final.

I hope Ancelotti has a special portion of training for his defenders from now on because Liverpool are a very different team to the Manchester City, Chelsea or PSG they have beaten so far. The defense still needs to improve, so it's important to work now to stay focused on the title.

In this case, maybe I agree with what you say, but apart from that, from a mental point of view, it seems that for Liverpool even though they did a comeback, maybe few people appreciate it because they still consider Villarreal to be at a lower level, so sometimes this is considered something normal.

Now they will face off in the Final (again) after the 2017/2018 season they are also in the final. but without the presence of Sergio who is definitely hated by Liverpool fans and Karius who is even ridiculed because of his game.

[jakdanyel]

What an extraordinary finale at the end! Real Madrid - Manchester City match was something special to me definitely and I can't wait to see the finale in the Champions League already now too. Real Madrid got what they wanted in a really strange but legendary way. They turned things around for themselves in a very short time in the last moments. And I really wanted to see them in the finale after that honestly. I thought like they also deserved to be the finalist. And thankfully they made it. But I've big respect for Manchester City's effort also.

It will remarkable if Liverpool win the quadrable this season to win all the competition you are in a season, winning four trophies is more than invisible, I think if they can manage to afford that this team will go down as the greatest ever, they have the squad though, this Liverpool is far different from the one that Mohamed Salah got injured just because of that they was no hope now the got Luis Diaz and jota to call on and they are perfect to replace him. It will be fun to see Jürgen Klopp lifting the champions League this season because of the hard work but Madrid deserve it for all those comebacks, Paris, Chelsea Manchester City is not an easy feat.

[Asiska02]

The match was a total turn over, I always expected that. Real Madrid shouldn’t be taken lightly in a champions league match at all. They are very good at it, the zeal to play in champions league is different from others.
Now what we’ve been anticipating for is here, a revenge for what Real Madrid did to Liverpool some seasons ago. This is pay back time and am sure Liverpool won’t take this final lightly, they’ll definitely prove to Madrid that they can do it. Mohammed Salah will be super ready for this to take on this revenge.

[RILWAN]

The finals on the 28 of this month between Liverpool and real Madrid is going to be a battle between two giants and the winner can not be easily predicted but high percentage of my bet will be for Liverpool winning the champion trophy.

I wish all the football lovers will learn from what happened to man city, do not say it is over until you hear the final whistle. City was a bit relaxed when they were leading 1:0 and they made changes that nobody expected thinking they have won the match but Madrid came from behind to beat them.
Talking about Liverpool and mo Sallah taking their revenge, they should be prepared else Madrid will beat them again.

[Velvet78]

Now we have the matchup of the finale in our hands: Real Madrid - Liverpool. This is going to be a great finale hopefully. Their last matchup against each other was another finale as far as I remember in the 2017-18 season finale. And Real Madrid destroyed Liverpool then by 3-1. It might be the time for Liverpool to have their revenge.    They seem to be very decent and strong this season. Real Madrid have also been incredible thanks to Benzema especially. But maybe Liverpool can cause a big disappointment for them this time.

Hehe it's a rare sighting to allow two goals in two minutes but to say they are stupid because they gave up their lead is too much.

Substitutions towards the end of the game to put in some fresh legs on the pitch is common among managers. It just didn't work for them this time.

[el kaka22]

One of the most important parts of the game was when the 120th minute was getting close, City still had hard time building up a play, and when I saw the players in Real running like crazy to each ball and pressuring City to fail building a possession I realized why they are so good.

These guys do not get tired that easily, they were running at 120th minute to make something happen even that late, if you are good enough to do something like this then you are going to go to UCL for sure. Obviously they are talented but City was talented as well and I did not see the same fire from City players, they were basically headless chickens by that minute.

[coinlocket$]

What a crazy 2 legs have been.
In the end, the clubs with big budgets often will go till the end of the cup.

About the final, I think Liverpool is stronger but I want to see Cefering giving the Cup to Perez, it will be hilarious and it will generate new memes.

....About the final, I think Liverpool is stronger but I want to see Cefering giving the Cup to Perez, it will be hilarious and it will generate new memes.

I have no update after the Super League fallout but are they still not in good terms? They will probably act professional and be all smiles during the awarding ceremony so they won't spoil the celebration but it would be fun to see what comes after hehe.

If he's still pissed then I won't be surprised if a proxy will handover the trophy.

[Ratash]

An epic performance from real madrid in these elimination rounds they made comebacks against psg, chelsea and man city despite having a bad defense and conceiding many goals a trio was able to get them to the final vinicious, rodrygo and especially benzema but still will they be able to do it on a final which is on my opinion different there is only one game and a mistake could cost them what they achieved so far.

I agree with the title of the final revenge game. The reason is, this impression makes Liverpool burdened with moments that should not be repeated. We also see their condition which is quite different. In the end, Liverpool saw Real Madrid's performance yesterday against Manchester City and will panic a little. Of course, in the minutes of urgency it is necessary to pay attention to how terrible Real Madrid's comeback is.
