UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Woodie]

Manchester City really came out to play this evening and the mean business, I don't think they will be leaving this competition early this time around as they have the high scoring Erling Haaland on their side to help them try to get this trophy for the first time but it's going to be a mountain to climb with experienced teams  like Real Madrid and Bayern Munich still in the competition .

so does Haaland score?  

WTF,  what is the record for a player who scored in a single game in the Champions League?

Should be 5 right?

The man just stole the headlines and am expecting tomorrow all sports news tabloids will be talking about him and his goal forecast topic will be on again ... And I see him getting 60 goals this season should he keep playing 60+ minute per game.

Anyone know why Pep took out Haaland? The man scored 5 goals, he would break the record if he played a little more.

I thought so too but maybe being at the Etihad he want the fans to give him a standing ovation to make him feel appreciated...

what I can say with Manchester City's performance this time is Amazing. now the score has changed to 4-0 after İ. Gündoğan added another advantage for Manchester city with an additional 1 goal in the 49th minute. And with a score like this, of course RB Leipzig will fall even more mentally in the game. so the goals by Manchester City can increase again. I doubt RB Leipzig will even score 1 goal in this second half to reduce the score at this time.

edit: score has changed 6-0 Haaland scores again

Leipzig are completely destabilised right now, and they'll watch their chances of qualifying dwindle this evening. They've lost all hope in this match, and I don't see any more magic happening here. Let them try their luck in the Champions League next season. They've been playing well in the Bundesliga, but this is proof that the Champions League is different and requires a completely different level of energy and play.

We are in 60th minute with result is already 6 - 0 and Haaland is having five of this night mean he is going to rewrite history in Champions League history with his talent what a guy.

That guy is just too good; he's a goal machine to be reckoned with at all times. This night in the Champions League, he made history by scoring a hat-trick in the first half and scoring 5 goals in a single match for Manchester City. We still have a lot of time before the second half ends, so I wouldn't be surprised if there are more goals tonight. What a fantastic player!

Anyone know why Pep took out Haaland? The man scored 5 goals, he would break the record if he played a little more. From the 60th minute, Pep took him out of the game. Okay, you might be thinking about the Premier League, but let the guy play a little longer and break the record. I couldn't understand this at all.
It's an evening that Leipzig will want to forget as soon as possible. They probably didn't expect such a match after the advantageous result they got in the first leg.

Imagine Haaland being injured, Guardiola will be the only one to blame and every one in this planet will criticise him for what will be called a huge and unforgiven mistake.
Every coach will take out his stars from the game once he feels it is safe to do it. It doesn't make sense to let him score more goals in a game where the only objective is to win to pass to the next stage.
BTW Haaland deserves a lot of respect, scoring 5 goals in less than 1 hour and in a Champions League game is something very special in his career.

yeah, I still want to see Haaland score more goals and make new history in the Champions League. but Pep Guardiola certainly has other plans and he surely knows what is best for everyone at Manchester City. and he is now giving the opportunity to play to other players. because with the current score, of course Manchester City can be calm. so that some of the core players may be withdrawn and replaced with players who have been sitting on the bench for a long time.

Manchester City can already be declared that they will qualify for the next round because they are already leading 6-0 and it is difficult for Leipzig to equalize at the Etihad Stadium. Erling haaland scored another Quintrick and it was very special for him because he did it for a team from the bundesliga.  manchester city played quite well in this match and they did quite well because the ball game is like half the field. leipzig really have to give up and this is not an easy team for them to face.

Leipzig had to completely surrender in this match because Haaland, who had scored five goals in the match, actually made him a goal-scoring machine for Manchester City. This is also a very extraordinary effort for Manchester City to ensure that they qualify for the next round and this can also be a sign that Manchester City is still very strong this season in the Champions League competition.

on the other hand porto vs inter. these two teams have the same strength but porto will have to try hard to be able to score goals in this match because in the first leg they trailed 1-0 to inter. from the statistics porto was able to put pressure on inter but they weren't able to score until the game entered 54 minutes. I hope inter can take advantage of counter attacks if they can do this because from the opponent's point of view they keep attacking to score goals.

FC Porto and Inter Milan, who are also competing at the moment, are still unable to score a goal, even though the match has almost entered the 80th minute. And if their match ends in a draw, then Inter Milan will qualify for the next round. I think this match will be a little painful for FC Porto at home if it ends in a draw or ends without scoring a goal.

I must commend Manchester City's great performance tonight, they've been totally unplayable in all ramifications and that's a bold statement and best way to send a clear message to other teams in the competition that Manchester City are in for serious a business. I was thinking Leipzig was gonna be a hard nut to crack tonight but no City had a better and different plan for the game.

At the end of this match tonight, bookmakers might be going to make the favourites to win the champions league this season...

[KTChampions]

so does Haaland score? 

WTF,  what is the record for a player who scored in a single game in the Champions League?

Should be 5 right?

Luis Adriano and Messi scored 5 goals in one game. Guardiola has no heart - why change Haaland so early when he could set an absolute record in the remaining 30 minutes?
Now it is clear why City were absolutely inert in the first game - they were sure that in the home game they would solve all issues even if the result of the first one was unsuccessful. And this calculation was fully justified.

Pep needs to pull Haaland out after making sure their position is secure. This also protects from possible injuries that will occur. But Haaland is also one of the best players this season, 5 goals in one match making Haaland the third player to score 5 goals in one match, the other order is Messi and Luiz Adriano.

[Ahli38]

FC Porto and Inter Milan, who are also competing at the moment, are still unable to score a goal, even though the match has almost entered the 80th minute. And if their match ends in a draw, then Inter Milan will qualify for the next round. I think this match will be a little painful for FC Porto at home if it ends in a draw or ends without scoring a goal.

and now the Porto vs Inter match has entered the 87th minute. but the score has not changed, which is still 0-0. Porto is still struggling to score at least 1 goal. but Inter Milan really strengthened their defense. in fact I think Inter Milan's defense in this match is really very strong. because after all they have to maintain the advantage in the first leg if they want to qualify for the next stage. and talking about Porto, of course they will be quite beaten and annoyed if the score does not change until the match ends.

[Frankolala]

with the acquisition of a score of 3-0 in the first half will certainly make Manchester City more confident in the second half. so more goals could possibly occur in the second half. It's great to see the game this time. But for the second leg match between Porto vs Inter Milan the score is still 0-0 and of course Inter Milan must try to hold Porto to a draw. But Porto continued to dominate the game so it could be that in the second half Porto would score.

Manchester City can already be declared that they will qualify for the next round because they are already leading 6-0 and it is difficult for Leipzig to equalize at the Etihad Stadium.

I hope inter can take advantage of counter attacks if they can do this because from the opponent's point of view they keep attacking to score goals.

What an easy victory for Manchester city over Leipzig, this match shows that city was really prepared for the game and are stronger than Leipzig. I feel for Leipzig because this is a flawless victory that has come to play in the second leg this season. It is quite amazing to see that two English teams have gotten their ticket to the next round.

I don't understand Porto vs Inter game,both clubs are finding it difficult to net the post. Porto has being losing so many opportunities that came their way and I guess that if Inter Milan qualifies they would be kicked out in the next round. These two teams are too weak to be in the league.

[Rengga Jati]

Erling Haaland finally got tired of scoring goals after completing his 5th goal and looks like he went and asked the coach to sub him, if not he would have scored another couple of goals and broke another record . Before the match started i was expecting to see 3.5 goals and both teams to score but Erling Haaland sealed the day and lets see whether Leipzig can score a consolation goal  .

He was creating goals like not in the Champions League, but in the local league. Omg, this is a record.
He seems like not having any trouble scoring what an amazing skill and chance he has at that time during the match. We may be very disappointed with the first leg but they really become stronger and stronger. They are actually professional and they deserve it. 5 Golas by Haaland was incredible in the UEFA Champions League.

Now, Porto is facing Inter without any goal. Port got a red card in 90+7, can Inter utilize this chance to score a goal?
--------
Edited:
Fulltime result
Porto - Inter 0 - 0
Finally, Inter is qualified for the next round because of the aggregate. Whereas Porto did their best to give very pressuring attacks. But Inter really increased their defense very well.

It's great to see the game this time. But for the second leg match between Porto vs Inter Milan the score is still 0-0 and of course Inter Milan must try to hold Porto to a draw.

Manchester City won and they scored 7 goals in the game while in the first leg, they couldn't even win the game and they got a draw with a 1-1 result, tonight they had full control of the match and Haaland scored 5 goals in a single game for them he proved himself once again that how important player he is for Manchester City, now Manchester City is motivated enough for the Champions League where they couldn't achieve the title before.

Correct. It seems that Manchester city has passed to the next stage quite easily. and I congratulate Manchester City for making it through to the next stage with a 7-0 win in the second leg. Congratulations also to Haaland for setting a new record in the Champions League by scoring 5 goals in one game. This result is of course very painful for RB Leipzig but they have to accept the difference in their strength with Manchester city in this match.

[nicolas1979]

In the end Inter got a ticket to advance to the next round after holding Porto to a draw. Congratulations to Inter.
But something terrible happened with RB Leipzig with a score of 7-0. Manchester City did something extraordinary. Pep Guardiola did something beyond anyone's imagination, and made Haland the best player of the season in UCL. And congratulations to Manchester City for getting a ticket to qualify for the last 8.

[SATWAT]

so does Haaland score? 

WTF,  what is the record for a player who scored in a single game in the Champions League?

Should be 5 right?

Now we have only three players with five goals in a Champions League game.

Erling Haaland
Lionel Messi
Luiz Andriano

In the end Inter got a ticket to advance to the next round after holding Porto to a draw. Congratulations to Inter.

Did you watch the game? Porto wasted too many opportunities and 2 balls hit the post in extra time. They were very unlucky. The game could've gone to extra time. Inter got away with their poor defense.

Haaland is such a humble guy. I can't imagine Messi or Ronaldo to be subbed in 60th minute. They always want to stay in the game until the last whistle. Haaland could've broken a lot of records tonight if he had played for 90 minutes.

[Iroh]

That was a perfect strike and a beautiful goal by Kevin De Bruyne to end the game. You can say Manchester City ended the game with style as well as with a goal. Great game for Manchester City.

All eyes on Haaland as he played beautifully, scored 5 goals and winning himself the match ball. Leipzig was extremely overwhelmed in this game as they couldn’t hold onto the ball for long.
They hadn’t much possession and couldn’t get much attempt at goal as a result. They had only 1 shot on target during that entire game while Manchester City had 16. That’s a stark difference between the both teams.

[Smartvirus]

He was creating goals like not in the Champions League, but in the local league. Omg, this is a record.
He seems like not havingany trouble in scoring what an amazing skill and cahnce that he has at that time during the match. We may be very dispaointed with the first leg but they really become strnger andstronger. They are actally professional and they deserve it. 5 Golas by Haaland was incredible in a Europe Champions League.

Now, Porto is facing against Inter without any goal. Port got ared card in 90+7, can Inter utiize this chance to score a goal?

It almost felt like this wasn't a UCL match, like Leipzig wasn't the team that managed to secure a 1:1 draw with Manchester City on there first leg. I was expecting a rather difficult game for Manchester City but, they had it too easy instead. Another 7 goals performance from an EPL side and even more ridiculous still, in the UCL with Erling Haaland scoring 5 goals. That's got to be some record.

I think he's got his experience from playing in the Bundesliga side with Dortmund and the quality of Manchester City to thank for this. Leipzig couldn't come up with anything  interesting and Manchester City just had to run them down. Such an exit for Leipzig!

British sports media has a way of singing great praises for  a particular player and will still be quick to point out the failures of same player when he's not performing at the top his ability.

There were already rumoured reports in the media claiming that the presence of Haland in the city squad has made the team not freely play their style of football and because their manager built the squad around him, so if he's not performing well city will struggle. But he came out tonight to give his critics absolutely wrong.

[Oluwa-btc]

Those five goals reminds me of Robert Lewandoski during his stay at Bayern Munich with Pep Guardiola as head coach against Wolfsburg. Erling Haaland has got to be one of the best goal hunters I've seen and watched.
Kevin De Bruyne goal was also a spectacular one tonight, he didn't have a good game, I really think City should go on with the signature of James Madison from Leicester City since they look like they'll be headed down the table. He deserves a good as bigger club as Manchester City. Great game from City they're indeed the best side in the Champions League.
