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

^ I don't think without Benzema Real Madrid would be in this position and situation. Liverpool defenders are obviously going to keep a close eye on Benzema.
I am actually not going to be surprised if Liverpool actually always marks him with one defender all the time. Benzema is going to be a big threat for Liverpool.

We already know that Real Madrid currently have an unbalanced team, between the defensive sector and the attacker. But we also know that this is a team that has no problem conceding goals. Therefore, they usually become more effective when the opponent starts to think they have the game won or fully controlled.  And that will be the biggest challenge for the Liverpool manager, to make the players maintain a high level of concentration throughout the match.

Real madrid are the best when it comes to doing remarkable comeback in a game. They did it against PSG at the knockout stages, also against Chelsea at the quarter finals. Then finally against Manchester City in the Semi finals. While, Carlo Ancelotti did a impressive task for the team this season and they are in the finals where they would face one of England tough team, Liverpool. However, Jurgen Klopp have already restrategize his team and definitely its going to be one of the tough game this season.

Champions League final matches always surprise fans. Both teams are ready for the final match. anyone will see how these two teams in the final deserve to be in the top match.
both teams are the best in teamwork. they are good in defense and also good in goal productivity. which I hope there will be nothing wrong with using the strategy. because it can make the game boring.

Even though at the moment Real Madrid can't be said to have a balanced sector, but when the moment becomes important then they can play very well. We will also at least remember that their process to get to the final was not easy, and that's what I say in certain moments they can be very perfect. If Real Madrid get a good moment like that again in the final, then of course the victory will be theirs.

They don't need one if Courtois turns up with his best pair of gloves and the Real Madrid forward just continue scoring like they have always done. Alkeast Chelsea, Manchester City and PSG can attest to that.

Benzema does not need to be good the whole 90 minutes. In fact, most people are focusing on Benzema, but the Major threat is Rodygo.

^ Honestly, a goalkeeper can only do so much, and if the Liverpool forward comes with attack after the attack it will be really hard for only Courtois to stop those.
I don't doubt his goalkeeping ability but I am really concerned about the defense of Real Madrid.
and yes I agree that Benzema only needs a few changes to be the hero of Real Madrid.

The weak point is not in the goalkeeper, the occurrence of goals could be due to blunders from the goalkeeper, the rest depends on the defenders dampening attacks from the opposing team. Real Madrid and Liverpool can tire the opposing strikers with a strong defensive wall, the role of defenders can save the goalkeeper from the condemnation of supporters. The goalkeeper can do nothing if the defenders are not disciplined, as a result the goalkeeper can repeatedly pick the ball from the goal net.

Real Madrid does have an unbalanced time right now.
well, a lot unbalanced compared to the team that Liverpool has.
But they have been achieving good results with this unbalanced team. I am not going to be surprised if they do the same again even though, on paper, it looks like Liverpool has the better team.

The good thing for Real Madrid players will be that they are getting a good amount of rest which the Liverpool players are not getting. I wonder if that is going to have any effect on the outcome of the match, but I am quite sure that this will take effect if the match goes into extra time.

Maybe Real's defense is a bit of a weaker part of the team, but I wouldn't agree that Real Madrid currently have an unbalanced team.
In fact, in modern football all players play defense and all players play attack, without exception.
Defense and attack are just tactical positions on the field that are constantly changing during the game and defensive players often score goals.
Real's players have a lot of experience in the final matches, it's obvious that they have a lot of self-confidence and these factors could decide the winner.

The Real Madrid's team is not unbalanced. Their team is stable enough. Although the defense is a bit weak. But Real Madrid's performance is good even after the defense is weak due to the strong midfield. Moreover, the bonding between the players of Real Madrid is very good. The players have adapted very well to Ancelotti's match strategy. And that's why Real Madrid's performance is so excellent.

both teams are the best in teamwork. they are good in defense and also good in goal productivity. which I hope there will be nothing wrong with using the strategy. because it can make the game boring.

They will definitely use the best strategy, even if this is the final, of course, everything has been prepared including all the players so that the productivity of the game will remain interesting for the final show later.
It's true that you said both teams are currently the best above other teams because they have advanced to this very tight final, I don't think it will be boring in the final there are always extraordinary surprises from both Liverpool and Real Madrid, whoever their supporters are will certainly look forward to his victory.

I think this meme is suitable to describe the situation of Real Madrid, which is always faced with a strong team. but that doesn't mean i think liverpool is luckier. but as we know the teams that have been faced by real madrid are teams that have a myriad of achievements.

It makes sense when we look at Real Madrid's journey in the Champions League this season. They had to fight even harder to make a comeback after falling behind in the second leg which was impressive. Meanwhile Liverpool can still be said to be in an almost smooth category because they are faced with opponents who are still above the team they aMadridying against.

Lol, There are no smooth roads for the two clubs. Look at what's real, not in the meme images that actually describe the discrepancy with reality. Liverpool and Real Madrid are fighting to risk everything to win trophies. If we think that Liverpool are more refined than Madrid, now Liverpool doesn't need to spend time with his core players who are even injured. Doesn't that indicate that nothing has been smooth sailing? all are given obstacles according to their respective quality portions.

I really don't believe that one team is going to have an advantage over the other. and we have to look at what is real and not get excited to see any memes. 

I believe Liverpool has a better defense but you know that Liverpool is not going to be well-rested compared to Real Madrid. Both teams are going to try their level best to win this match and I honestly believe that both teams have equal chances. Real Madrid have experience on their side. and they also have a Benzema who is waiting to show his best performance.

The final of the most elite European club competition brings together two top clubs (Real Madrid vs Liverpool). It will be a prestigious and difficult match to predict, but Liverpool have the greatest chance of taking revenge for their defeat in the 2018 final. Liverpool must take Benzema into account, because the Real Madrid striker always scores a goal every time he appears with Real Madrid in the 2022 Champions League.
Benzema has several targets in this season's Champions League final

• Become the Champions League Top Scorer.
• Give Real Madrid the 2022 Champions League.
• Become a Ballon d'Or winner.

Real madrid have had quite an impressive season and they have faced a lot of obstacles to reach the finals now, with some weaknesses in particular the defense sector making madrid have to work hard to be able to make a comeback and score as many goals as in the home games against city and PSG, compared to Madrid, Liverpool are the perfect club and their strength is very evenly distributed on all fronts so this is what makes the pundits favor Liverpool as champions, but I think,  Ancelotti who has a lot of experience as a coach, of course has a special strategy in reducing Liverpool game later.

Right then guys, does anyone follow women's Champions League? Me, sorry to say, not even a single minute has ever been watched by my eyes. Not even on replays, not even on highlights, nada.

But tonight, I will make an effort to see what all the fuss is about. Reading that Barca's record capacity crowd hasn't been for the men's team but the women's!

Hope they change my mind about why I don't tune in.

Honestly, I still don't want to see the women's Champions League. The skill disparity is just too much for me to handle.
I watch men's football and I say why he didn't do this and that!! I nit-pick almost every mistake that they make and I can only imagine what will happen if I watch women's football.
But, if you see something worth watching please let me know.

Real Madrid's defence is weak, while Liverpool's forward is very strong. It is not possible to predict exactly which team will win this match. The chances of both teams winning are still equal. Ancelotti is an experienced coach, but Klopp is no less experienced. But comparing the squads between the two teams, Liverpool's squad seems stronger and more stable to me.

[Coyster]

Of course as the final edges ever closer, the discussion ahead of the game gets more serious as well, in my opinion Real win this one, the way and manner in which they have evaded elimination right from the RO16 till now is phenomenal to say the very least, at some point it more or less seems like it has already been written in the skies that they are going to be champions of Europe this season. They would be going into that game with a very strong mentality, prolly a stronger one than Liverpool, especially if City win the EPL tomorrow, the pressure would fall back heavily on Liverpool, cause they would know the CL remains their only chance of a major silverware this season.

• Become the Champions League Top Scorer.
• Give Real Madrid the 2022 Champions League.
• Become a Ballon d'Or winner.

The first and second on your list are achievable for Benzema on the 28th of May, depending on the outcome of the match, both on a personal and team level; but as for the last one, there is no way to be certain that Benzema would win the next Ballon d'or if Madrid wins the CL this season, i know it will place him in a very strong position, but there is still a lot of football to be played this year, and there is the WC as well in Qatar.

This is a fact and indeed this has happened to several teams that have played before even from the last 16 phase match against PSG, the last 8 against Chelsea in Leg 2 and the semi-final against City they are always like this and they are indeed very effective when the enemy has considered this is over especially when you look at City's game some time ago.
Liverpool must be really careful about this because Madrid always press with full force in the last 10 minutes

[Fesatmas]

Besides the Champions League final which is being hotly discussed lately, of course there will be award winners, one of which is the top scorer. The top scorer now held by Real Madrid striker, Benzema who managed to occupy the first position for it with 15 goals he created. He will be the winner of the award after it was impossible for other players to surpass the goals he created.

I found a meme that was quite quirky in my opinion towards this final.
The journey of the two teams from the previous round. quite a contrast indeed if you look at the differences between the two clubs they are fighting for

Yeah Real Madrid way to the final game was pretty hard at the opposite of Liverpool but that doesn't mean anything for their face to face match.
For the moment and before a week from the game, Liverpool odds are better @2.13 vs 3.4 for Real Madrid with BTTS @1.62, well that's mean the game will be intense

in this case it is clearly quite good and it is not wrong to see Liverpool now being favored by the bookies considering that in terms of attack and midfield, Liverpool is clearly more complex now.
But in this case I stick with Madrid considering that they are now full of surprises

But, if you see something worth watching please let me know.

I've just finished watching the first half. Free live on DAZN's Youtube channel.

It's actually not as bad as I thought, leagues better than women's international, which is no surprise, but because of the way they play (again, I'm only watching the 2 best women's teams, Barca has not been defeated this season), it does make for better football than I'd say even half of the African Cup of Nations games.

Definitely less robust, they don't press, they only pressure. Speed will never be as fast as men's football, so there's really no fast counter.

Yards of space to pass, and they do pass crisply, just not speedily, so pass completion very high in near spaces, and they do allow so much more freedom in midfield and on flanks.

Aerial defence is really bad on both ends.

3-1 at halftime, I'd say only because both keen to score and aware defences are pretty mediocre.

But if you like tiki-taka and positive football (there's no diving and shithousery, I love that, almost every foul the tackler comes back and apologises and the fouled doesn't roll about), I've to say, it's not bad.

The top scorer now held by Real Madrid striker, Benzema who managed to occupy the first position for it with 15 goals he created. He will be the winner of the award after it was impossible for other players to surpass the goals he created.

Karim Benzema will be UEFA Champion League top scorer in this season after success created 15 goals so far and left 2 goals from Robert Lewandoski from Bayern Munich with 12 goals. Not ability for Lewandoski catch goals scoring from Karim Benzema because have Bayern Munich have eliminated on semifinal, now left with Salah but difficult to reach goals scoring because only made 8 goals in this champion league season. I think Karim Benzema still have chance for scoring goals on final match will held several days later and become top scorer for Real Madrid on champion league this season.
