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

[püsür]

Salah's third final lost in 2022 and he won't be able to go to the World Cup, I'm sorry for him. Benzema is the owner of the 2022 Ballon D'or, congratulations in advance. Courtois was clearly the man of the match, a panther on the post. He also deserves the award for the best goalkeeper of 2022. It was unlikely next to the City-Liverpool-Bayern trio, but they won by beating the toughest opponents, congratulations Real. While stars such as Ronaldo, Pepe, Varane, Sergio Ramos and Di Maria left in Real Madrid, this year's European championship became a surreal while Bale and Hazard could not get enough contribution... In the season we call them dead, first the league, then the giants league. Winning Champions League is an unbelievable accomplishment.

Sadio Mane shot was directed straightly to the bar of the goal.
Asides that I didn't see too much chance on goal from Liverpool
Yes they played better, but in games like this, you have to be in full possession and still lost, I have seen games like that.

I don't know why you think Liverpool played better... Mane's unscored goal for Liverpool can be considered the same when Benzema's goal was cancelled out for Real... On other occasions Real played better defensively and offensively... Yes, Liverpool had several opportunities to score, but the professionalism of the goalkeeper was top class!

In this case I would probably say that Liverpool played very well in this match. His dominance is incredible and I think everyone agrees with that but on the other hand they are too pushy and lose with just one quick counter-attack which makes them frustrated and rush in attacking. on the other hand Madrid's defense is also quite good and indeed in this case Courtois also made a very good wall in this match

Liverpool Vs Real Madrid match ended 2 days ago (based on my time zone), but until now I still can't believe the result of that match. Liverpool, which from the start of the match continued to attack, was finally defeated with only 1 goal scored by Vinicius, besides that I also lost my bet, even though I believed in the small odds I received on my betting list, but that's football, it's hard to predict.

Salah's third final lost in 2022 and he won't be able to go to the World Cup, I'm sorry for him. Benzema is the owner of the 2022 Ballon D'or, congratulations in advance.~

But besides the three lost finals for Salah, there are two won and both were won on penalties, so it's hard to call Salah unlucky. As far as Benzema is concerned, it's too early to talk about the Ballon d'Or (although he's currently the number one contender for the prize) because if someone shows a phenomenal result at the World Championship, the balance of power could change.

It's true that the Ballon D'or is still a long way off but Benzema does it all if he does better in the world cup in his country (France) then he's still a strong candidate in my opinion.
So it's hard to decide but my guess is still on Benzema who will win it.
But for Salah has failed several times in the championship including the previous AFCON cup which failed in the final.

I don't know if you're a Liverpool fan but maybe yes based on your comments. I feel the same disappointment because I honestly thought Liverpool would have scored tonight because they had their chances. But I really didn't think that Real Madrid could defend well and not make too many mistakes and managed to hold on until the end of the match.

Liverpool were just unlucky about the goals because really I saw them playing well that night. I hope you can forget about losing that bet because this is football and we also know what the risks are. I'm really excited for next season and hope Liverpool can still reach the final again.

While everyone was betting on teams. I always had a thing in mind that both teams are super kool Salah is bestest.
But its the luck which helps a team win, in final match luck was sitting on Real Madrid side. Liverpool came so close yet they are so far. There is no - better luck next time  - this kind of chance comes once in a while.

Most of the betting exchanges favor Liverpool as champions because their appearance and squad are quite good this season, besides that when the match started Liverpool continued to press Madrid and make that Liverpool odds of winning were increasing on several betting sites that I saw, but football is indeed difficult for us to predict when the team that seemed to be winning the match had to end up losing at the end of the match.

In this case, actually I still feel that it is not a matter of believing it or not but in this case it is difficult to accept the fact because from the beginning many were convinced that Liverpool would win so when Liverpool lost they did not want to accept this easily and with a lot of them. the argument that exists, and perhaps the argument that is still much debated today is the case of handball with an active hand scheme or not

[CryptoPanda]

The UEFA Champion's League is in Real Madrid DNA, they do not always win by luck. Eighteen champion's league final history is always in their favour whether anyone like it or not. They will always find a way to get the win. It's quite rare to see the likes of Diego Simeone praising Real Madrid but he's been truthful.

Liverpool was just unlucky in the match that was finished yesterday, actually if you look at the way they play, Liverpool is far superior to Real Madrid. I hope these two teams will meet again next season either in the Final or the matches before the final. yesterday night was a night full of smiles for Real Madrid fans.

Many people still can't believe they're seeing this result.
All year long, we watched Liverpool play football with a very high level of performance and Real Madrid was not such a strong team. But even in the most critical matches, they were able to make attacks that could change the outcome of the match within a few minutes.
It was similar in the final match, and although they found very few positions, they were able to score the goal and win the match

[CryptoPanda]

Ancelotti is arguably the best coach in Europe, won the UEFA Champion's League twice as a player and four times as a coach with different clubs. He's one of the few who has won it as a player and coach. This wealth of experience came to play in this season's campaign, how he was able to manage the players, getting the best out of them. Each game with tactics to cancel out the threat of the opponent.

[AakZaki]

~snip~
while Real Madrid were well rested (thanks to the turnover) happy (Spanish league) and mentally ready to win

Madrid have secured the Spanish League title 3 weeks before the UCL final. Meanwhile, Liverpool still have to play in the EPL until the end seriously because the chances of winning are still great. It seems that's what makes Liverpool have more pressure. Apart from physical fatigue Liverpool do not have a strong mentality like madrid. The guarantee of having more Young players doesn't make liverpool champions. Although I understand Liverpool will dominate but Madrid are more effective in counterattacks.

in this case it can be considered like that, they are out of luck because as you said they are already very superior in everything except goals
In this case, Vini's goal is surprising and indeed this is one of Madrid's strategies. look when they managed to score a goal how many defenders they put in like Camavinga and Ceballos who were meant to be a scourge in the defensive midfielder.
On the other hand, if we look after they scored a goal the only players saved in Liverpool's defense were Benzema and Vini there, even at the corner at the last minute, only 2 players were in the Liverpool penalty box.

French Sports Minister unveiled that the cause of the chaos involving Liverpool fans and French law enforcement agents was because many Liverpool fans tried to enter the stadium with fake tickets. This made most of them to be denied access causing some of them to attempt to force their way into the stadium. The police responded by using pepper spray and canisters. Today, Gerald French Interior Minister just announced that Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp contributed to the chaos because report showed that he told Liverpool fans to travel to the finals without without buying tickets. The source of this information is still sketchy because investigation is still going on.

Despite the great history that Real Madrid has made in various competitions and is the ruling club of Europe, it is very strange when people say Real Madrid won by luck.  Don't people like this see that every football club has a manager?  I want to emphasize, Real Madrid's victory was purely because of the strategy implemented by Carlo Ancelotti.  For people who understand football, they will not say "luck".

[Gencecikmen]

Carlo Ancelotti is now the coach won the most champions league. He won 4 times champions league. Firstly congratulations to Ancelotti.

Fans of Real Madrid you have 14 Champions League trophies. Also congratulations to the fans and Real Madrid may your party be happy.

Both Ancelotti and Real Madrid are beating records! This is the 14th Champions League trophy won by them with the 2nd team after them, Milan, had won 7, Bayern and Liverpool won 6, and 5 for Barcelona.
If you add the number of trophy of two clubs it will be still under what Real Madrid collected lol.

Your arguments are totally right. I agree with your words. This achievement is quite extraordinary. And it will be hard (maybe impossible) for all others to catch up! Real Madrid is really a winner team.

[baeva]

Congratulations to all the Real Madrid fans. I believed in Liverpool until the last, but it didn't happen. Obviously Liverpool were much stronger in this match, but that was not enough. 19 shots against 2, 1 of which was on target and was decisive, you don't even need stats, you just had to watch the match, it was obvious) A real shame about the Liverpool players

Actually Liverpool played extremely well in the match, they were unlucky, but their performance was excellent. All praise gose to Courtois for making some great saves and as well save Real Madrid.
Congratulations to all Real Madrid players, it was a great season as the won Laliga Title and Champions league. I can see Marcello was very happy as has his last Champions league for Real Madrid.

Yes, the goalkeeper made some great saves that saved Real Madrid in some moments, but I don't understand why Courtois is considered one of the best players in this match. For me personally, Vinicius was clearly the best, he constantly created dangerous chances and even scored, he led Real Madrid to victory, but Liverpool were much stronger

Courtois saved a lot of saves and most of them from short range. It's not easy to face Liverpool's attack and save those shots easily. Honestly I didn't thought Courtois is such a good player as he has done some of the mistakes in past that has costed Madrid matches but in the finals he really pulled out an amazing performance.

I don't argue that he played a good game and saved the team in some moments. But that doesn't mean he was the best player of the match, I think Real Madrid were lucky in many moments. For me personally Vinicius seemed to be the best player of the match, he created a lot of chances. Liverpool dominated from the opening minutes and overwhelmed Real Madrid the whole first half, they just lacked a little bit.

[Pulsar77]

Real Madrid had a very poor performance generally but they still used their chances in a very effective way. They did the best thing they do always. They scored the goal by a very quick counter-attack. This was the thing I was hoping for to happen because it would make the game more enjoyable. I was expecting to see Liverpool playing their usual dominant game after that goal in the end. I'm afraid Liverpool weren't that much impressive still. They had some important chances and Courtois didn't let them score. Congratulations to Real Madrid and their fans!

I see it's not a bad performance from Real Madrid but more to Carlo Ancelotti's strategy.  In its journey in the champions league this season, Real Madrid met with big teams until the final round.  Don Carlo knows very well the ability of his squad, in facing a tough and attacking opponent, Ancelotti must play a different strategy from his opponent, if Karim Benzema and his friends follow the rhythm of the game attacking the opposing team, then I can say El Real has lifted the suitcase first  of this tournament.  Don Carlo is a genius and very experienced, to be able to give his best for Real Madrid in his second season.

Ancelotti is definitely a very special manager and he is a winner too. Real Madrid are very lucky to have him now. He knew what to do against dominant teams in the Champions League too and they eliminated very tough opponents one by one. Real Madrid didn't have many chances as I said but they took advantage of the ones they had very nicely. Real Madrid are one of the best teams really when it comes to getting out of troubling situations. Ancelotti is a great tactician indeed and I can't wait to watch them in the Champions League next season too.
