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

[mamesso]

An interesting match from both teams, it seems that many have suffered losses for Liverpool's defeat in this final match. 
Outside of this match, I was interested in some of the poses taken by some Real Madrid players, such as Benzema, Marcelo, Bale and others with their 5 finger poses which signifies that they have won the Champions League title 5 times. The pose was first done by former Real Madrid player, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Their 5 finger pose which they did in a form of pride because they have been part of the success of Real Madrid, winning 5 times the Champions League is an achievement that is difficult for other players. After Benzema, Marcelo, Bale and others who have won the Champions League 5 times, it is very difficult for their successor at Real Madrid to be able to repeat the success that has been achieved by Real Madrid. The point of Real Madrid's success this time was thanks to the genius of Ancelotti. After Zidane's departure, Real Madrid's appearance improved again in the hands of Ancelotti.

The first half of this final match was really boring to me but thankfully the second half was more exciting. But this was still not even close to the tempo of their previous final match in this tournament. We were able to watch only one goal which Real Madrid scored. They scored the goal even though Liverpool were maintaining the game under control of themselves. They were desperate against that goal came by a counter-attack. Real Madrid proved once more how helpful being a very experienced team here is. Real Madrid reached their eight championship which is a great achievement.

What a classic performance from the two sides , though I sided Liverpool to win the game , But Courtois was incredible in the game and didn't allow Liverpool to see the back of the next despite all the attempts to try to score a goal , I think Liverpool didn't show enough strength in the game last night towards their opponent Real Madrid and should have done more than their performance.

With the performance of Salah in this very great match. i was expecting liverpool to equalize the score sheet. But, Real Madrid had a tight defense. while, their goalkeeper Courtois was well prepared for the game, and prevented their opponent from securing any goal. It was indeed an interesting match. However, Valverde assisted Vinicius into scoring an amazing goal. After the first half of the match ended in goalless draw. Ancelotti applied his very best strategy, and it probably worked for him.

As Jürgen Klopp said it: when the best player of the match was the goalkeeper of the winning team, that says a lot! Very true!

Klopp did not say some other facts
both teams had a goalkeeper in the lineup. such is the rule of the game
The worst player on the pitch is from his team. (TAA is the main culprit for the goal)
He ^Klopp is really great manager but is very weak tactically.
I watched Klopp in the 5 Europan finals, he won only once. that says a lot. Yes, he won two cups this season, but with zero goals with much luck against Chelsea through penalties.
Only big final Klopp wons against very poor Tottenham (with then also very bad tactics).

[Fesatmas]

We have to appreciate the Real Madrid goalkeeper this time, from all the Real Madrid players, the Real Madrid goalkeeper who was the most shining and contributed to bringing Real Madrid to victory.
This is a new history for world football, because it is the only team that has won the Champions League 14 times. I think it took decades to catch up with the titles that Real Madrid won.

Courtois deserves a MOTM in this match. He always breaks Liverpool's attack, that's incredible, if he didn't play that well, maybe Liverpool could have scored at least two goals or more. Mohammed Salah was frustrated by him, how his kicks always met the hands of Courtois. He is the player who is at fault for Liverpool's failure.

I have to say that the way that Real Madrid won the Champions League title this year is one of the weirdest ones that i ever witnessed. I mean it is completely normal for a team to maybe be lucky in one or even two matches like Chelsea was very lucky back in 2012 when they advance into the final against FC Barcelona even though Barca was the way stronger team in the semi-final and then in the final against Bayern Munich chelsea was again the weaker team by such a big margin but somehow they managed to still win the title back then with an immense share of luck.
This year though Real Madrid was the weaker team in basically all matches in the knock out stage and also yesterday in the final, but they still won the trophy in the end.. crazy.

Real Madrid managed to kill several players who had been predicted to be troublesome from the start, such as Luiz Dias. Even though they didn't really turn off the movement of all the players like Mohammed Salah who still got a lot of potential goals. But the performances of their first-choice goalkeeper made up for what their defenders couldn't. Yes Courtois is Liverpool's nightmare in this match.

We have to appreciate the Real Madrid goalkeeper this time, from all the Real Madrid players, the Real Madrid goalkeeper who was the most shining and contributed to bringing Real Madrid to victory.

I respect Real Madrid a lot for their achievements, it is not easy to be champions when their are other teams that are also good.  The interesting thing about Real Madrid winning it is that winning  is now a normal thing and must for them.

Liverpool did dominate possession, but it was Real Madrid who actually controlled the final. Because, on many occasions, they managed to direct the game in the direction they wanted. Courtois then came on to perfect. Real Madrid was greatly helped by the brilliant performance of Thibaut Courtois.

Real Madrid is not an easy team to beat, especially if it's a final. It can be proven by how many times they made it to the final and the percentage -+90% they could win that match. It's incredible what Real Madrid have achieved since the start of the Champions League. And it is very difficult for other teams to match Real Madrid's title acquisition.

So finally Real Madrid picked up the trophy. Proud moment for the team.
The league ended - real treat for those who were betting on Real Madrid. Hope they won too and enjoyed the treat.

[Balmain]

The champions league final was actually a bit boring. Liverpool missed too many scoring opportunities, not a single goal from nine shots on target. Real madrid played a good tactical game, took advantage of the opportunity to score and became the champions league champion, never underestimate this team from the champions league. Liverpool league and champion league were very close, but they lost both, which was sad for this team.

[swogerino]

Well done to Real or better should I say well done to the Real goalkeeper as he was undoubtedly the savior of Real yesterday night.It looked like everything Liverpool tried to do was stopped from Tibault Corteaux the goalkeeper of Real Madrid.For Liverpool it was one of those extremely unlucky nights especially when the opponents goalkeeper saves so much.I think Real winning this trophy for the 14th time in history is becoming boring but that is the way things ended yesterday night,so let's hope for a better final in the next year.

An achievement that deserves thumbs up where the contribution of a Courtois for 90 minutes he thwarted 9 dangerous kicks from Liverpool players. In fact, it was almost clear that M. Salah's mentality was down when he couldn't penetrate the Belgian goalkeeper's defense.

Real Madrid are truly grateful to Courtois for showing such a brilliant save. As a Real Madrid hero. If only the goalkeeper wasn't Courtois, maybe the goals created would be very easy for us to see.

Congratulation to Real Madrid for the massive victory they got yesterday from the champion league final. It has really showed that Real Madrid are the king of champion league for this season because they defeated Liverpool 1-0 to achieved the title and to informed other teams that they are well prepared for next year season. Liverpool coach has a lot of work to do to improve Liverpool against next season because their strikers really missed many opportunities in yesterday match that would have giving them victory.

Real Madrid was just lucky. Liverpool would have won that match with a very high goal margin without the heroic performance of Thibaut Courtois. The match was against Liverpool Football club and Thibaut Courtois Football club. His nine saves in Stade de France yesterday gave Real Madrid the trophy. Real Madrid was not a fantastic team in that match and they couldn't create much chances but they maximized the few they had. I sensed that Liverpool might have to pay dearly for not scoring in that match. Congratulations to Real Madrid and also a big Kudos to the Liverpool team. Although they lost the cup but they have had a very successful season. Except Real Madrid reinforce its team with new young signings, I doubt if they can make it to the Champions league Semi-Finals with its current squad next season.

[Awaklara]

In the first half of the game,Madrid was more dominant in waiting than Liverpool, who always attacked. 20 minutes Early Liverpool dominant attack lead. and in the 30 minute Madrid began to counterattack until the first half was over. Although not much, Madrid attack began to reach Liverpool defense even in the 42 minute Benzema was able to frighten Alisson goal but was disallowed for offside. Madrid game was more open at the start of the second half and they started to have the ball and do bill up attacks. Vinicius goal in the 59 minute was the result of Madrid defensive tactic initiative early in the first half. Once again congratulations to Real Madrid for winning the Champions League this season.

Mohammed Salah was frustrated by him, how his kicks always met the hands of Courtois. He is the player who is at fault for Liverpool's failure.

Even though Liverpool had been pressing Real Madrid since the beginning of the game and did not let Real Madrid develop the game. Several chances
were created by Liverpool, but Thibaut Courtois played extraordinary by breaking one by one the chances that Liverpool got. Not many chances were
created by Real Madrid, even after Real Madrid managed to score a goal in the 59th minute, after that Liverpool increasingly aggressive in attack.
Courtois frustrates Liverpool players, making 9 important saves, so it is very worthy Courtois to be man of the match. Especially Mohamed Salah was
very frustrated several times his kick was successfully thwarted by Courtois, even Mohamed Salah's close-range shot in the 83rd minute could still be
thwarted by Courtois. Real Madrid's victory was due to Courtois's extraordinary appearance in that match. But it must be admitted that the mentality of
Real Madrid players is very strong, they can beat the 3 strongest Premier League teams, which is amazing.

It's too trivial to call Real Madrid lucky. Ancelotti plays the antithesis of Liverpool's tactics. Demonstrating that a small amount of momentum can beat the team that has the upper hand.
The great performance of Thibaut Courtois also did not fall from the sky. That, it must, go through a long training process. And the goalkeeper was also given a strategy by the coaching team, not just going down to the field.

Of course they are quite proud of the achievements they recorded during their career with real madrid because they have won the Champions League Trophy 5 times. Gareth Bale may choose to leave next season because he rarely gets playing minutes for Real Madrid. on the other hand the victory over liverpool last night was also very special for Ancelotti because he came to Real Madrid in the 2021/2022 season and immediately presented the Champions League Trophy.
