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

[LittleBitFunny]

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.

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.

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.

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.

[Furious 7]

^ 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.

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

[buwaytress]

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.

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.

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.

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.

^ Yes, I know at certain times even the attackers might need to defend but an attacker is obviously not the optimal option for defending. just like that, a defender is not the best option for attacking. we have to remember that if a Defender leaves his spot to help out in the attacking, he is leaving a gap in the defense. I am not a big fan of switching up the position of a player and giving him a position that he is not comfortable with. but ironically this thing has been working great for Real Madrid.

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

^ I also think that Liverpool cannot let this match go to overtime because if this much does go to overtime Real Madrid is going to have a clear benefit, because Real Madrid players had good enough rest which the Liverpool players did not. so I think Liverpool has to be really careful going into this match.

We are getting closer and closer to the final on May 28 and I am very curious how it will go. People might have thought that Liverpool would make it to the final, but Real Madrid is somewhat surprising. And then Real Madrid also has a very difficult road to reach the final. It would complete the story if Madrid won, they deserve it.

Indeed, Real Madrid will make history if they win this season because they did it miraculously even with a 1% chance of winning they can turn things around
But this is a final after all the team that was there was the best team Liverpool won't just let it go and they deserve to win too.

Luck favored Real Madrid in some important matches before they qualified for the final after finishing a really tough match against Manchester City. Against Liverpool, the situation will definitely be different. Both teams will try to beat each other so it is difficult to guess who will win the UCL title this season. On the one hand, it looks like it will look even better if the UCL trophy is brought back to England (Liverpool).

[bekti3]

Actually in this case there are several other players who can be used as Super Sub like Asensio at Real Madrid because he is still quite good as a substitute.

Yes, there are some players that potentially become super subs in Real Madrid. Not only Asensio, they have Camavinga and Valverde. These midfielders are very good whenever they are released to be the substitution players. And Ancelotti often changes their tactics drastically when these super subs are released in 2nd half. Many people don't realize this.

But indeed in this match Liverpool must also anticipate the movements of Vinicius and Rodrygo because Rodrygo's movements are sometimes dangerous

All Real Madrid attackers played very impressively in the previous round, so it is a wrong perception if only focus to anticipate Benzema. We all know Rodrygo, this man even can score 2 goals in 2 minutes.

This could be one of the secret weapons for Madrid now but in this case they also need to be able to balance the midfield now because we know that Liverpool's midfielders and full-backs are also very troublesome apart from an attack that really needs to be watched.

For Rodrygo indeed he played a very good role in the previous round and hopefully in this match he also puts in something good to see

[jostorres]

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.

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.

It is impossible for this to be a boring final, I am 100% sure that it will be something that would be awesome for everyone involved, I know that there are tons of people who thinks that Liverpool will win and they are the better team but I believe that that is not the case and I believe that Real Madrid has been awesome this year in every competition they have been in and they are going to fight until the whistle and they will be doing awesome.

I know that it is not going to be easy but it is going to happen one way or another. I know that it is not going to be too bad, I know that it is going to be amazing to watch, no matter who wins and to be fair 100% guaranteed winner is us, the viewer.

Of course the Champions League final will entertain the audience, because those who will play are the strongest European teams who have
made a difficult journey. Moreover, the Champions League competition is the most popular competition in Europe and brings together the best
teams from several European countries. So I'm sure that the Champions League final has been eagerly awaited by many people around
the world, because it has proven to be entertaining. Whether it's Liverpool or Real Madrid, it's not easy for both teams to reach the Champions
League final. They had to beat several other strong European teams to finally enter the final.

Although quite a lot of people tend to favor Liverpool to win. I still predict Real Madrid will win the Champions League trophy, my reason is
simple actually why I prefer Real Madrid over Liverpool. Because I think Real Madrid this season has been very strong, besides having already won
the La Liga trophy. Real Madrid also in the Champions League competition managed to get rid of PSG, Chelsea and Man City. So I think
Real Madrid managed to beat all three teams because they must be very strong, and I believe they are not content to only advance to the final,
next I predict Real Madrid will beat Liverpool.

[terrorJR]

It's really naive if this kind of thinking still exists because there really is no reason now for them to be called weak.

Maybe indeed in terms of team strength and attack it is clear that Liverpool are more superior because they have evenly distributed players even for their reserves but on the other hand it will be a gamble if they underestimate Madrid

That's the fact, I assume that everything is still speculation for now and this prediction is indeed quite spinning when the final is in sight but every fan will support each other's clubs. Whether it's from the Real Madrid or Liverpool camp, what is clear is both of them are the best Champions League clubs this season.

As for our impatience, the time has passed long enough when what we have been waiting for every moment is the moment where one team stands on the champions podium and holds the trophy. Make sure your bet is prepared!!! and Duelbits you can make the choice to bet.  

Yep, it would be very natural if something like this happened because for the fans they will definitely win their favorite team no matter what and this is proven now and indeed I am also like that no matter how hard I am in this case, I still prefer Madrid because indeed this is my favorite club even though Liverpool are strong but I am quite optimistic about my choice.
As for Bet, it's the end and with a pretty big bet I'm pretty confident now

I don't think it is all UEFA champion's league final that comes with surprise though only a handful of such finals are. I'm not expecting any surprises this season's final anyways. Both teams got 50-50 chance to take the trophy home. I will be surprised only if a team in the final throw away a four goals lead.

[baeva]

Real Madrid are highly motivated to claim their 14th Champions League title. I'm interested in seeing this Team because they finished the match very grueling seeing from an opponent they actually knocked out, yes even if it had to come with some impressive comebacks. That's the advantage that Real Madrid have, their mentality is so strong after falling behind by a few goals.

Real Madrid are indeed prepared for this encounter,so as Liverpool,because the game is not going to easy at all,it's really going to be tough for the both teams.Liverpool is a very great side and I tip them to claim the tittle again.England is very proud of them because they have been very consistent.Jorgen Klopp is regarded as one of the best coaches in the world,with his experience and his managerial prowess,the Real Madrid team will really find it difficult to defeat them.

Plus Liverpool have a thirst for victory as revenge for the last defeat, because the last defeat was the fault of the goalkeeper, it was he who somehow magically conceded two goals. Who knows what would have happened if the ball had not ended up in the net in such a stupid way... I think now Liverpool will by no means make such mistakes and go into the match with a cool head, they have every chance of becoming champions

The both teams have equal chance of winning this match. Real Madrid have a combination of classic young players and experienced advanced players.Thibaut Courtois the Real Madrid goalkeeper is one of the best in the world and we have seen some dramatic saves from him. He might frustrate the efforts of the ever-blazing attackers of Liverpool.  Karim Benzema is the talisman and Rodrygo Goes is the undercover talisman. These two attackers would definitely score in the final. Liverpool have a better team, with the bet set of players, but Real Madrid have had so much luck in this competition and this same luck might give them the Champions League trophy. Both team have done really well this season in their various domestic league, hence none of them would be trophy-less and both of them would still be in the Champions league next season if anyone loose the finals.

Anyway, this match should not end in a draw because it will be Real Madrid advantage they are accustomed to situations like that they have enough experience
Based on the gambling market Liverpool are still favored for regular time and both teams to score are also very potential market offer 1.65 for this bet
Basically typical Liverpool is almost the same as Manchester City rely on speed and this is Madrid weakness.

[indah rezqi]

The final match is famous for its tight tension, especially for a big competition like the UEFA Champions League, which certainly makes the mood of the audience tense.
Liverpool and Real Madrid both have huge supporters around the world who will flock to Paris. Mohammed Salah and Karim Benzema are players who really need to be anticipated in this match.
Mohamed Salah was substituted before the game ended against Chelsea in the FA CUP Final because there was physical contact at that time, can his fitness be 100% in the UCL final?

Of course this will result in quite high tension considering this is the last game full of prestige between two big teams and this will definitely be interesting to watch.

and for Salah, in this case I still feel that he will be 100 per cent fit because if we look at what kloop said when asked about this problem he firmly said Salah will be able to play in the final later and this proves that indeed he has only had a few problems and it's not too much to worry about

This means that the final between Liverpool vs Real Madrid will prove Mohamed Salah even though the match will not necessarily make it easier for the Egyptian player to score goals in normal time because Real Madrid's defenders are very solid.
Various speculations arose regarding the UEFA Champions League final, but the exact outcome is difficult to predict.
