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

[Sebas.tian]

It's always the same teams that win this tournament lately. An odd duck is actually PSG along with Manchester City. Both have been regarded as one of the best teams in the world for years. Especially when Messi came to PSG. Then they were the top favorites to win the tournament. However, it goes wrong year after year for both teams. When would 1 of these 2 teams be able to break the negative spiral? I hope for City they get a top striker. Levandovsky eg.

I think, Manchester United will not miss the opportunity next season because their new manager is fully ready to help the team to achieve champion league title next season. I believe this new Manchester United manager will like to change some of the defenders who did not performed well in this season because he don't want mistakes to repeat itself again in next season. PSG managements will like to bring more new strikers to assist Messi to help the team to improve well, because their fans are not happy about their performance in this season.

Blame it on Sallah who said that they had a score to settle, he was having so much confidence in himself that they can do Real Madrid a quick win in the Champions League and the match was settled amicably without much fight, just that the Referee was overlooking some yellow cards.
 

i think we cannot blame any of the players; it is common for football players to express confidence before major finals; and i disagree with you when you say the tie was settled without much fight. it was an intense game with mane strucking the post, and salah forcing saves from Courtois on numerous occasions such that Courtois was awarded the man of the match. It was an equal game, with Real Madrid having the better performance and a trophy to show for it

I think we should stop blaming Mo Salah, he's the only player who was trying his best to score. He really did tried to score but unfortunately the score wasn't meant for Liverpool. He was just unable to find a way past Real Madrid Goalkeeper, Thibaut Courtois, as he denied him with a series of stunning saves. This was the weakest Real Madrid team that Liverpool could have wished for yet they lost. Even in their weakest, they’re still better than most in Europe. It's normal for every player to express their desire to take revenge or win the game as self motivation does not come off wrong.

[Zlantann]

Mohammed Sallah exhibited a top-class performance in that Champions League Finals match against Real Madrid. His attempts on goal were outstanding and accurate. He did what every world-class striker would do. The bottom line in that match was that Real Madrid was lucky and Goalkeeper, Thibaut Courtois was understandingly good in that match. Courtois was always in the right posture or position at the right time. Hence, Liverpool's team did their best and no player should be blamed for their inability to score in that match.

You must have meant Manchester City, not United, because there is no way Man U can claim a high result in the new Champions League season... They'll probably get into the Europa League in no time... As for PSG, they are already doing well with their forwards - Mbappe, Neymar, Messi, Di Maria... I think it's the kind of squad other clubs can only dream of...

Lol - this happens too when someone like me who has limited knowledge about team tries to become philosophers too. haha - and call Manchester city - Manchester United, haha - OH God. I can't stop laughing.

Boasted before the finals, were is he now ?
Players should learn to ficus more on the game.
He's had big losses this season from club side to international sides.
Might leave Liverpool if he doesn't gets an improve wages soon

PSG has a strong squad. Yet last season we saw PSG's poor performance. At the same time, although Manchester United's squad is strong, they did not qualify for the Champions League. If any clubs want to play well on a platform like the Champions League, they definitely need an experienced coach. Whoever coordinates the players will make the team stronger. And so even if PSG's squad is strong, if they do not hire experienced coaches, they will not be able to perform well in the Champions League next season.

Well, I believe Liverpool played well but was really unlucky. Mohammed Salah had a few chances to score but the goalkeeper of Real Madrid was really good. And for those who are criticizing Mohammed Salah because of him not being able to score, I am quite sure that they don't know what they are talking about. And I don't think it was overhyped considering the fact that it was a Champions League final.

The truth is, English Media hyped all the English clubs and players that played against Real Madrid. It was very pathetic. You should have seen how the likes of Foden were being praised for being a much better upcoming players than Vini Jr (well at least Justice was served right, Vini Jr silenced all of them all the way to the Trophy)

Being a 14 times UCL winner, Real Madrid deserves some bit of respect and I hope it is a big lesson learned for the doubters.

Liverpool were seriously favoured for winning the title and most people were confident about seeing them as the champions of this season too. In the end, Liverpool had an incomplete job to do against Real Madrid considering their previous finale against each other a few years ago. Salah burst into tears in the previous finale and he was aiming to have a revenge here. Liverpool played very decently and I was doubting Real Madrid to win the title too. Liverpool were just unlucky about finishing up even one of their goal chances.

well, we can't really blame anyone, because regardless of what the media sometimes makes things look like they're exaggerating, but that's their job and if it's not like that they will also have a hard time finding success, so it's very natural for something like this to happen. but on the other hand I quite agree with what you said, in fact these 14 trophies are quite good and this is proof that they are the king

I also thought Liverpool would avenge their previous defeat. But Liverpool has failed again. They lost to Ancelotti's match tactics. At the same time, Thibaut Courtois' performance was exceptional. Liverpool has attacked a lot. But he successfully resisted every shot. However, Liverpool's fortunes are bad. Despite playing well throughout the match, they have unfortunately lost.

Mo Salah did and gave everything in the final to win and if everyone's been sincere, he was the most threatening player against Real Madrid. I don't think anyone blaming him watched the game, even the statistics at the end of the game suggest he did well, it's just that Courtois was very good that night.

Actually, I also thought that Liverpool was going to win this match because they looked to be a better team going into the finals. But the teams that Real Madrid beat on the way to the finals were just unbelievable. Liverpool expected it a lot more compared to Real Madrid.

I think if Real Madrid lost the match they wouldn't have taken it so badly because their reaching the finals was a great thing. And because the Liverpool team is stronger compared to Real Madrid everyone expected Liverpool to win and probably that expectation added a little more pressure.

Liverpool's struggles this season have been incredible, fans and observers will say the same. But failure was inevitable for them as they could not stop Manchester City and Real Madrid from winning two very important titles this season.

It's hard to believe, but that's football where we don't know exactly what the final result will be because not every favorite team can win the title. They could try it again next season, but unfortunately they will lose Mane who moved to Bayern Munich.

Proof of the genius and winning mentality as well as the calmness of the Madrid players in utilizing the transitional phase and a fairly deep defensive defense and then the momentum phase of the counter attack or attack switch pass momentum which was very successfully implemented by Real Madrid players and in particular based on the genius of the tactics and decision instructions of the Real Madrid players. a tactical genius in terms of effective transition momentum from a Don Carlo Ancelotti

That's right, even I think 70% of people are favoring Liverpool in this final. But Real Madrid was able to show that they are not easy to beat, especially in the final. They may be able to master the statistics but not to win the game. It's not surprising for me to see Real Madrid can show something extraordinary despite being under pressure.

And so even if PSG's squad is strong, if they do not hire experienced coaches, they will not be able to perform well in the Champions League next season.

While having an experienced coach is a good advantage for any team, it is not the most important factor necessary to win the CL, every coach that has won the CL, definitely had a first time of winning it, and that time such coach was definitely not considered as being experienced per se, there have also been coaches that have come out of nowhere to win the CL, like Di Matteo of Chelsea for example. What is most important remains the players, not just their individual skills, but togetherness/ability to work together, character and very importantly, mentality. Pochettino has quite a lot of stars a his disposal, now he must build a 'team' out of them, in order for them to become a force in the CL next season.

While without a doubt there was a little bit of good fortune for Real Madrid I still think the biggest factor was the aggressiveness in which Liverpool chased after every single title they could get and this exhausted their players, now if Real Madrid had to do the same they would be on equal grounds, but with Real Madrid winning their league so far ahead they could rest their key players, and at least to me the superior stamina and endurance of Real Madrid players really showed up during the second half of the final.

At the start of the match at the time of the final, it was very clear Liverpool had more chances but unfortunately no result was a goal. Liverpool performance was clearly extraordinary, pressing from the first half to the second half showed that they were very serious in playing their respective roles. It is undeniable that Real Madrid only took advantage of a few opportunities and even then only a few attacks.

Real Madrid have good history on final match and always success as the winner, several time Madrid always can get UEFA Champion League trophies although many sport betting site not favorite with Real Madrid. Effective with defensive and directly working when attacking make Madrid easy how to win from Liverpool. Have many chance and success made shot on target still not enough with Liverpool how to score goals because Madrid have solid defender and actually goal keeper have impressive performance on final match.
