UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

How is this Bayern-Manchester City  game goalless???
I mean city's Halaad just skyed a penalty which should have put them in front and killed the Germany teams of trying to get a comeback...

Leroy equally missed a very good chance which should have given them an early lead but seems both teams are playing it safe and doesn't paint a picture of agency.

It's a shame that Haaland missed this golden opportunity. for some reason I see the Man city players actually look very nervous and not confident in this match. even though on aggregate they are safe enough so even playing openly will not be a problem for them as long as they also balance with a good defense like in the first leg. because if they keep allowing Bayern to attack in this game then I think there will be an opening at some point for Bayern to have a goal.

And Haaland missing the penalty shot could have happened to any best player, I could tell by their performance that they lacked confidence, and I believe that was the case even with Haaland for losing a penalty At the end of the game, it was a draw, but on the basis of the aggregate, Manchester City won, Benfica was playing against Inter from the start I already know that teams like Benfica won't advance. and Bayern had plenty of chances to have won wondering what was stopping them, having six shots on target was a very good attempt to win against manchester city.

Meanwhile the match between Madrid vs Manchester City is the most appropriate in the final unfortunately it won't happen.

Omg, I am really surprised when loojing at the fixture, Real Madrid vs Man City. I Really expect to watch them in the fibal because it will be incredible. But, as you said, it's impossible because they must meet each other in Semi finals.

Ia really confused and still have no idea about it. Man City exactly has Haalland and other players whon ae great and ready enough to beat everyone. But on the other hand, Real Madri is also the same, they always give the best ways and performance, so I don't think that it will be an easy work for both.

[Velvet78]

Really great job by Manchester City! Their job might have been more difficult in Allianz Arena but I was still very positive about them to advance. They didn't surprise me thankfully and got a draw which was enough to eliminate their opponent. Bayern Munich are really terrible against good playing teams this season. They were comfortable against PSG because PSG were really much worse than Manchester City.

After this result I think it is more obvious that Bayern Munich need a solid top striker - a complete forward if possible.  

[hyudien]

But let's not forget that Real Madrid is the reigning UCL king. That's gotta mean somethin', right? They know how to slay in them big games, and they got some serious ballers on their squad. I ain't sayin' it's gonna be a breeze, but I'm hella confident about Real Madrid's chances.

And as for Manchester City, well, they a beast, no doubt. But they ain't invincible. Real Madrid just gotta stick to their game plan and play to their strengths. If they do that, I think they got a real chance at snatching that victory

And don't forget that no matter how strong the opponent Madrid is facing, somehow the Madrid squad can always get out of the opponent's pressure. Even in the final minutes, Madrid could turn things around quickly and aggressively. I know and don't need to be reminded, it's just that we also need to be aware of all possibilities even Ancelotti must have prepared for it since Man City's victory in Leg 1.

[bitzizzix]

So
Real Madrid versus City
Milan vs Inter

These are the semifinals.

Prediction, City-Milan the final

That's right, today Inter and Manchester City managed to secure their chances in their respective match even though we only saw two draws match.

Regarding today's match, I think Benfica should be quite satisfied with the 3-3 result in the end because they were too difficult to prevent Inter from scoring in the second leg. Benfica is good, but an aggregate that is too big is difficult to catch. The same thing about Bayern Munich, they failed because the aggregate was too big. Manchester City didn't live up to expectations, but they were very lucky not to concede many goals.

I agree, the final this season is Manchester City and Milan.

It seems that many have predicted the finals of Manchester City and AC Milan including some news, and if you look at the last 4 matches between Real Madrid and Manchester City in the Champions League Manchester City have won 3 wins and Real Madrid won 1 time.

Manchester City is very ambitious to win the Champions League because Manchester City have never won it, and if you look at the results of matches in all competitions and also with good winning results, I think Manchester City has a chance to win it. However AC Milan has experience and has won the Champions League 7 times.

Madrid with the same 3 matches for the Champions League as last season seems to be quite interesting at this time.
When reflecting on last season, actually Manchester City in terms of match performance was quite good and could even be said to dominate, but on the other hand, as you said, Madrid always came out of pressure, especially with their strong mentality. Last season they came out of it and became champions. .
Now Manchester City meet Madrid on new terms because they have Haaland in their squad at the moment. this could be another consideration.

From the start, their condition was not destined for the Finals because the Bracket was too one-sided from the top 8 phase.
Now we will relive last season's Champions League Quarter Final Deja Vu in the Semi finals.
Currently Manchester City is in a new condition because there is Haaland in their squad who is their new weapon this season. But their side problem last season was that they were too sure they could win in the last 10 minutes which made them lose painfully.
Now things like that must be minimized so that there is a difference for this season even though in terms of experience it is clear that Madrid is superior.

However AC Milan has experience and has won the Champions League 7 times.

Manchester City's past record against Real Madrid is very good. Manchester City has won three of their last four matches against Madrid in the Champions League. However, Manchester City could not qualify for the finals due to a 3-1 away defeat last season. They will play against Real Madrid in the semi-final of this season. It is very difficult to win against Madrid this season. Because the team is in a very good rhythm now.
Manchester City is still fighting for both the Premier League and Champions League titles. On the other hand, the only goal of the Real Madrid team is the Champions League. They are able to give their full focus to the Champions League matches. On the other hand, it will be difficult for City to perform consistently at both venues. And so I consider Real Madrid as the favorite.

[boltz]

Good run this year in UCL for Bayern and I'm sure they will comeback stronger and maybe do some key changes in summer with some players. We all saw that disappointment on Kahn face but what could have Bayern do in that situation ? because City really looks on the way to win the trophy this year and if Real won't stop them , who will ? Inter or Milan ? Hmm I don't see many chances for either of them.

[Hyphen(-)]

What's the next fixtures in semifinals?

Inter Milan Vs AC Milan

Real Madrid Vs Manchester City.

This season's semifinal will be very interesting to watch because the two fixtures is a long-term derby.

Manchester City will be willing to defeat Real Madrid this time in order to fulfill the team's long-term goal of winning the UEFA Champions League, whereas Real Madrid will want to maintain their Champions League consistency in order to defeat Manchester City and claim the title again this season.

The AC Milan-Inter Milan derby is well known, but with their recent performance in the Seria A, AC Milan has a chance to win, but Inter Milan should not be underestimated.

[lizarder]

I am aware that Bayern Munich had such a good performance at home, but Haaland's one goal has ruined their hopes for nothing. Haaland paid dearly for his penalty failure through a quick counter-attack scheme, De Bruyne again created a great assist for Haaland's goal today. Since that goal, Bayern Munich's performance has not been as good as the first half and now Manchester City is confident enough to play better.

It's hard to expect Bayern Munich to come down from this rabbit hole, they are very difficult to find goals despite having many chances. Manchester City only need to maintain their aggregate advantage in the next 20 minutes, but I think Bayern Munich's struggles are fail.

I see that Haaland's goal came from an error by Dayot Upamecano who was unable to close the space for movement, so Haaland easily placed the ball in the right corner of the goal. In the second half, Upamecano also made many mistakes and he did not learn from the mistakes that occurred in the first leg at the Etihad Stadium.

With Man City's escape repeating the old story, where Real Madrid will face Man City again, this is interesting for us to watch and how Ancelotti and Pep Guardiola will maximize the semifinals to the final. Pep Guardiola has the ambition to beat Ancelotti in the semi-finals and I'm sure he will try his best this time.

[GiftedMAN]

What's the next fixtures in semifinals?

Real Madrid will play against Manchester City in the semi-final while
The two Italian Giants will play each other in the semi-finals. If if I may ask do you think real Madrid can defeat Manchester City with the current form of City this season I guess the answer is no but we all know real Madrid to be a team that is ever ready when it comes to the champions League. I am still doubtful if pep guardiola has learnt enough lessons and is ready to win the champions League this season.

For the game between inter Milan and AC Milan, is very difficult to predict the outcome of the game because this two teams are from the same region I think the possibility of inter Milan progressing to the final is more sure when compared to that of AC Milan but on a second thought the performance of AC Milan against Napoli for something else I never believe that AC Milan will end up defeating Napoli but after the game I now believe that most times form don't play football rather the ability to make use of opportunities created in the field of play on this note I will the betting on Madrid and AC Milan for the finals.

Inter Milan Vs AC Milan

Real Madrid Vs Manchester City.

This season's semifinal will be very interesting to watch because the two fixtures is a long-term derby.

The AC Milan-Inter Milan derby is well known, but with their recent performance in the Seria A, AC Milan has a chance to win, but Inter Milan should not be underestimated.

a very suitable meeting between manchester city vs real madrid. this is like a fake final for manchester city because the challenge they are facing is a defending champion team who has the experience and quality of a team that is strong enough in the Champions league. So, Manchester City hopes of becoming champions will be present at this meeting first, where if they manage to beat Real Madrid, it is likely that Manchester City will easily become UCL champions this season.

apart from that inter milan vs ac milan this is a derby which is quite interesting for us to watch and this will repeat their history at the meeting 18 years ago. It's hard to determine who will qualify for the final but I think Inter Milan chances are bigger in this semifinal match.

[Fara Chan]

The elimination of Bayern in the quarterfinals is certainly very disappointing people in Munich. Since firing Nagelsmann and switched to Tuchel, the team's condition was seen unstable. The high hopes given to Tuchel turned out to be completely failed so that clearly the face of Oliver Kahn and other officials with disappointment and regret. But all decisions have occurred and the next target will be re -charged to Tuchel next season.

While Manchester City became a strong candidate to become the champion this season, Pep Guardiola was truly very serious and had great ambitions to present Liha Champions champions for the first time for Manchester City. This season City is indeed very strong, the tough challenge for British representatives is only Real Madrid. If they are able to qualify for the final, they can be sure they will become champions.

[SOKO-DEKE]

It's a Man City vs Madrid semi final. Man City got some scores to settle with Madrid after what happened last season. I don't think history will repeat itself this time around. I'm placing my bet on Man City to get to the final even though people will always advise against betting against Madrid in the champions league. Man City are a better team and they're form keeps increasing. They slipped up last season because they lacked a top striker, they don't lack that right now.

Even during the previous season, many people expected that Manchester City would defeat Real Madrid and advance to the champion to the final, but in the end, Real Madrid won the competition.now People are still anticipating that Manchester City will still qualify by defeating Real Madrid now that the two clubs are playing in the semifinal again.Although I am aware that Manchester City is in better shape than Madrid but I will never bet on Manchester City to defeat Real Madrid because i seeing Real Madrid as an experienced champions league team than Manchester cit.and with Madrid playing pattern again  this season in champion league I am okay with it.The truth is that I would be better off not betting on the game than staking Manchester city to defeat Madrid.

Munich failed to take advantage of the chance to play at home and closing their dreams this season obviously it hurts

Bayern Munich makes an effort, but it is evident that Manchester City is superior to them this season .Therefore, the fact that Bayern Munich draw their home game did not surprise me. My views lead me to believe that Bayern Munich's first-leg defeat by Manchester City by three goals even served to destabilize them.now it will be good for bayern Munich to go an face their domestic league fully because I don't think there is much gap between them and the team in second position on their league table.

[Leviathan.007]

I also agree that the finale is likely to be between Manchester City and Milan. Manchester City are already dominating the Champions League to tell the truth. Their performance against Bayern Munich also has been very lovely. Haaland is a beast as always and he continued to score from where he left. He had the same thing again. He was a little ineffective before but he scored a really impressive goal later on and drew the attention to himself right away. Bayern Munich supporters were booing him while he was being subbed off.

When it comes to Milan I must admit a fact about them. They actually don't play that impressive now. Their performance against Napoli in both legs wasn't that much good. But still they found out a way to eliminate Napoli anyway. Napoli must have become the victim of their inexperience in the Champions League. I don't think Milan can fight against Manchester City that much if this finale is seen.

It seems even Osimhen couldn't help his team in this match to win and get themselves to the next stage because in the end Napoli and Ac Milan missed one penalty and in the end, the 1-1 result couldn't help Spalletti and his players in this game Now Ac MIlan should face Inter Milan and once against we have two Italian teams against each other.

That was a pretty fatal mistake made by Bayern Munich management because Bayern, in the hands of Nagelsmaan, had recorded a pretty good trend in the Champions League in the previous round, but when Bayern Munich management fired Nagelsmaan and replaced Tuchel, of course this was a very detrimental blunder themselves. Instead of wanting to strengthen the team, they were eliminated in the quarter-finals.

Manchester city is quite strong in the champions league this season, they have already managed to beat two teams from the previous German league representatives Leipzig and Bayern Munich. Now, in the semifinals, Manchester will face Real Madrid, which is likely to be a tough game for them.

[GxSTxV]

Unfortunately I didn't have a chance to watch or bet on any of the second leg matches. However as I had made predictions in my previous posts here after leg 1 matches I was certain that the winners for the next round were already known from the first leg. For example Napoli lost their best player either due to injuries or red cards even that they were the more likely to win with higher odds but they couldn't do much against AC Milan who must be defending and playing on counter attacks on the leg 2 game since they could win the first two match UCL beside Serie A match.

Real Madrid is now facing the monster Manchester City after easily beating Chelsea, Halaand’s comrades are looking to bring the trophy back home this year. Even that most people and fans will agree on this but personally, I know Real Madrid and from the history of matches between these two teams we can’t predict anything anymore. My bet surely goes for Real Madrid of course even if they lose with a large score in the first leg. Somehow I can feel that they will be finalists once again this year.

No one in Bayern Munich could blame Tuchel for the defeat since he is relatively newly appointed and didn't have the time to get used with the players and them to get used with his tactics. Nevertheless, Kahn and the others expected a different outcome but they got what they were afraid from.

While Manchester City became a strong candidate to become the champion this season, Pep Guardiola was truly very serious and had great ambitions to present Liha Champions champions for the first time for Manchester City. This season City is indeed very strong, the tough challenge for British representatives is only Real Madrid. If they are able to qualify for the final, they can be sure they will become champions.

Guardiola, City and the Cheikhs have their best shot to get their first star after the elimination of many hard opponents. Inter and Milan aren't that competitive for them and definitely Real Madrid are the real threat but they are performing less perfectly than the previous season so whether City won UCL this season or forget it for years!
