UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[terrorJR]

We can say that it is the end of the road for Juventus after this horrible loss. I don't really know what's wrong with this team now. They actually showed some improvement against Maccabi Haifa and Bologna by getting two wins. After that they lost to Milan in the Serie A but I still expected them to be way better in this critical match. But they are just terrible at defending still. Let's say they can't make their defense better then they can at least be effective in scoring. But they finished another match with 0 goal.

Allegri's time might be really running out now. Maybe Juventus president assured Allegri before with a statement but I don't think he can stay anymore if they are eliminated in the Champions League. The same thing happened between Laporta and Koeman as you might remember.  

Juventus are the clowns in the Champions League this time and indeed their chances of qualifying are getting tougher now because seeing their performance against Maccabi in this match I'm not even sure they can face Benfica and PSG in another match.
Regardless of how they had possession of the ball in this match, they still looked bad, especially having been conceded twice by the same player.
This is another bad thing for Juventus and Allegri this season.

Manchester city on red card, is one of the main reason that they drawing point with Copenhagen. The game will get more interesting in the second half with city on one man down. One big fact about the game is that city are dominating the game despite their red card and Mahrez missing penalty. Pep Guardiola want a winning despite leading first in his group table. Copenhagen can not even keep pressure on the visitors side despite been at home.

Manchester City won the first game with five goals. I think that even if they lose today's match with a red card, Copenhagen still have no chance in this clash. They will probably leave the group together with Sevilla. In any case, Copenhagen will definitely not be able to score 6 goals against Manchester City in the remaining time.

Manchester City will not lose the game regardless of the one man down due to a red card given to Sergio Gomez, City may appear to be a bit weak in the attack but their performance has been above average in this game and they still dominate in ball possession and shots on goal from the first half till this very moment so I don't see Copenhagen winning the game or getting a goal in this match. City has qualified to the next stage without a win in this game because they still lead the group with 10 points after 4 matches followed by Dortmund who is second with 6 points in 3 games. It's over for Copenhagen and Sevilla because they will not make it to the next stage because they have 2 points and 1 point respectively.

Yes, Manchester City had an easy task in the first game and have managed not to lose now either. They are probably the most stable team so far, or they just haven't come up against a strong opponent yet. But so far it looks as if they will be playing in the final this season. I really like the way they win games easily. I think it's definitely a contender for the final match.

It will be tough for AC Milan to win against Chelsea because they have to play with 10 players. A red card for AC Milan and Chelsea have scored a goal by penalty shot. It will be much more easier for Chelsea to score more goals in this match to win over AC Milan.

very disappointing red card had to be received by Tomori in the 18th minute and now Chelsea are 1-0 up in the 22nd minute. I agree with you that this match will be quite difficult for AC Milan because they have to be ready with 10 players so there is little hope that they will be able to beat Chelsea. Chelsea will be able to easily dominate the course of this match considering they are superior in number of players. and what I just saw Chelsea had managed to double the advantage in the 34th minute through Aubameyang. AC Milan is really difficult to develop the game in this match.

Tomori acted like a player who is not ready for this match, the way he held Mount is a deserving red card, now they have to deal and manage with Chelsea pressure especially when they have the same points in the table. A successful win in this match will catapult their points ahead of Salzburg been the top in their group.

Why do I feel that Real Madrid are not ready for today's match, I was having hope on them base on their pass performance seeing that they have not loss a match, it will be regrettable that they have bench Vinicius without good explanation when he should be hear doing a great wing for Benzema.

[Adbitco]

Yes absolutely, we may see more goals from Chelsea this 2nd half would be a tough time for them but I strongly observed Milan to be trying they could at least have a just single score but there is no space being that chelsea is a very strong team with solid players. I did commend on Jorginho and  Aubameyang for put smile on our faces during the first half.

[snipie]

Juventus becoming a joke honestly. Today's game was supposed to be an easy one and at this point, they could say goodbye to CL..almost.
City getting a draw against Copenhagen was unexpected too. Mahrez missed a penalty in the first half and they were playing with 10 players most of the time.
In the remaining games, PSG and Chelsea are leading while Real Madrid is 1 goal behind Donetsk

[uchegod-21]

Can someone confirm for me who is preparing Allegri sack letter. Will it be released this night or letter tomorrow. I am curious and want to know because  FabrizioRomano has updated that Juventus has reaffirm that Allegri remains their coach. I really don't know what to say, whether Juventus is confused or Allegri is lucky.

Where is Tomas Tuchel?

How can Meccabi that is not even from a football nation beat Juventus. Please I didn't watch the match, whoever did should explain to me what happened.

[Inwestour]

Manchester City away to Copenhagen also failed to win the game even though they are the favourites. Manchester City through Mahrez had chances to win the match, but Mahrez missed a penalty before being sent off to replace him for lack of defenders. But Manchester City are still safe to lead the table with 10 points, but not about Juventus.

After Gomez was removal, I still expected Manchester City to win, but the match ended in a draw, although they could have won. For City, this was not a bad result, because in the next match with Dortmund, City can decide all issues with access to the playoffs. But the removal in Milan can still become critical, since Milan loses 2-0 and they don’t even have a chance of a draw.

[coinlocket$]

So it seems Allegri has been confirmed once again. I have no words left.

Juventus is basically out from this champion League, -10 from the lead of the Serie A after 1 month.

[MinoRaiola]

Milan has had a strong start to the game and is clearly showing that they can do everything they can to win it, but as of right now, their aggressiveness has gotten them into trouble as they have received a red card, which weakens their defense.

It was a clear penalty, but the decision of red card from German referee  Daniel Siebert was too harsh and unnecessary IMO, the referee has ruined the game and the momentum that the Italian side started with has now cooled down. It may turn out to be a rough game with a lot of bookings for both teams. Milan now has an extra job and will have to be extra composed if they are to win this game.

Chelsea now lead by two goals courtesy Jorginho and Auba. More goals will come definitely for Chelsea

Its happen so quickly, AC Milan are on last place in the group. Zagreb and Salzburg will probably play draw. A few minutes ago Tonali had a good chance to make it 1:2, but it came to nothing and the motivation of the Italians is sinking. They are playing with 1 man less and have received 3 more yellow cards. Chelsea have a chance to make it 3-0, they can finish it slowly.

[Zackgeno96]

Strange that Manchester City did not win today at Copenhagen. But of course there was no pressure at all on that match. At the moment PSG - Benfica is 1-1, it didn't look like that for a while. Most striking is the result of Shaktar Donetsk - Real Madrid, which is currently 1-0 for Donetsk. I'm sure the gun factor is very high for the team from Ukraine. I don't know if it's enough to win, we still have a while to go. It would be a stunt. Chelsea seem to have taken the win anyway as they are still 0-2 up and Milan seems to be getting no closer.

Yeah I was just reading a news about Juventus president confirming that Allegri will stay after this awful defeat. Haifa won their first game since 20 years in Champions League? I read that too but not sure how accurate. Imagine getting the first win vs Juve by a team playing in a low level league. That's a joke for real.
Meanwhile, Benfica scored a goal and it is 1-1 against PSG.

Strange that Manchester City did not win today at Copenhagen. But of course there was no pressure at all on that match. At the moment PSG - Benfica is 1-1, it didn't look like that for a while.

There were so many incidents in the first half that first the missed penalty, then the canceled goal, and then the red card, Manchester City had to maintain the draw in the match where they could score the difference. After all, even this 1 point keeps them solid at the top. This score should be considered normal for an away team that plays 1 hour of the match with 1 missing player. Moreover, their best player Haaland didn't play.
Paris Saint-Germain is struggling for leadership. Benfica is a very strong team. Both goals came from penalties. Messi is still injured. Both teams were relieved in the group as Juventus surprisingly lost against Maccabi Haifa. After this minute, either team can agree to a draw. I don't think they will take too much risk.

I don't think Chelsea will score more goals in this game from the look of things, I expected them to capitalize on the advantages they have playing a ten-man AC Milan to score two more goals in the second half to seal the home and away victory very well but it seems the players are relaxed because the AC Milan side is not making any meaningful attempt to score in the game.


The effort that was made by the goal scorers was commendable especially Aubameyang who has been prolific since joining the blues from Barcelona I think their names has been used to sing praises by the happy fans for the comfortable away victory.

The red card that Tomori received was considered by some on social media to be inappropriate, he should have been given a yellow card and a penalty. But it seems the referee was very clear on his decision and all parties should be able to accept this decision. in the second half no goals were created until the last minute. Maigan absence was very influential on the AC Milan defense and also Tomori red card made the atmosphere of AC Milan game feel like it was out of control. Fick ac milan must accept the harsh reality in this match and their chances in the champions league will be very small to qualify for the next round.

Looks like today's tour of surprises, but for me the biggest surprise will be if Allegri is not fired. Does he really have an endless credit of trust from the club's management? PSG and Benfica have drawn, which means that Juventus are 5 points behind both of these teams, which means 99% elimination from the tournament with two rounds to go.
In general, surprising results today, the only thing that is bad is a small number of goals scored.

[Adbitco]

They ended with 2 zeros though the capitalized and maintained their precious goals instead of putting efforts to have more goals. Chelsea were playing with full confidence and even having nice passed across them selves than the AC milan, there is no sign of settlement among them self so do we say chelsea is more higher than the ACM.

The red card that Tomori received was considered by some on social media to be inappropriate, he should have been given a yellow card and a penalty. But it seems the referee was very clear on his decision and all parties should be able to accept this decision.

I'm sure thats why we've got referees and his assistant referees to officiate the game. Call out what the presume to be what and give what needs given. Referees standing on there decision doesn't mean they cannot be wrong, they are just definitive, have been decisive on a matter and are ready to defend it. It takes so much to correct a previous call but in this case, the offence was obviously committed and a penalty awarded but, a yellow card would have served more. It was way too early in the game and Chelsea are in the run for wins as it is now.

None the less, they played impressively well again tonight and Emerick Aubameyang numbered on the goals too. He might just be the best signing Chelsea made for there own good.

Not only was the Copenhagen Vs Manchester City match strange, there were several other matches such as Haifa Vs Juventus, PSG Vs Benfica, Dortmund Vs Sevilla and the last one was Shakhtar Donetsk Vs Real Madrid. I don't understand what happened to the top teams.

Manchester City, even though they had 1 red card, I think it's still very reasonable for them to get the win by 2 goals away. PSG, they played like lost their way, could only score 1 goal at home, and the most chaotic thing was Juventus, they lost to PSG with a score of 2 - 1 at Parc des Princes, but now they got a bigger defeat from a team that didn't favored.

Chelsea actually served us with a synchronizing and admirable football construction that needs to be thunderously applauded. The precision, the coordination and flow was topnotch.
It's safe to say that Aubameyang has broken the jinx of goal drought surrounding the number nine jersey.
Confidence is gradually coming back to the team. It's good to be back to winning ways.

[Doell]

Real Madrid always surprises at the end of the match, Shakhtar should have been more wary in the last minute, today heroes is Antonio Rudiger and Kroos. Matchday 4 was full of surprises, we saw Manchester City couldn't get a score and PSG also ended in a Draw, but not for Chelsea under manager Graham Potter getting better.
