UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Docnaster]

It was a tough match between Manchester City and Real Madrid. I was thinking it will be a good ending for Real but it turns out looking like better results for Manchester City cuz having a 1-1 draw result in Benabue is good enough to anticipate winning at Etihad. Manchester City had a better performance though with a late goal,  and I am expecting something huge from them I'm the second leg.  After a struggling draw at Santiago Bernabeu from the look of things, Carlo Anceloty may not be lucky in this champion league phase

Great game last night, really enjoyed watching Real vs City. All to play for in the 2nd leg.

All Italian, Milan derby in the other semi final tonight. I will definitely be watching, I really can’t separate them, they are so close in quality. Wouldn't surprise me if it was another draw.

The game will be extremely difficult because both teams are in better positioned to defeat the other, but due to their team's performance recently and in their league, Inter Milan is more serious than Ac Milan. Inter Milan also has a good forward player like Lukaku who is in better shape this season, but I can't predict the result of the match because Ac Milan also has a good forwarder who can play more Lukaku and defensive players who can attack him and stop him from scoring.
I see that Ac Milan has more supporters than Inter Milan in this game, and I hope that Inter Milan won't surprise them by defeating Ac Milan and cut some of the fan's bet.

AC Milan vs Inter Milan - one thing is positive, an Italian team will play in the final of the Champions League. The last time Juventus Turin played vs Real Madrid in 2017 and lost 4:1. The last time an Italian team win the CL was in year 2010: Inter Milan against Bayern Munich, result 2:0. An another interesting statistic: When Real Madrid is in the final, they always won. Today i was betting on Inter Milan, they won all the last 5 games.

This is a match that will probably be more tense than yesterday's semi-final, I mean this is the derby between the two Milans in the semi-final. One of them will eventually qualify for the final, but perhaps Milan have lesser chances than Inter. Inter basically has a much more stable performance than Milan, but I agree with one thing, the Champions League is always different especially regarding the atmosphere of the matches.

Regarding this match, Milan lost Rafael Leão from one of their list of attackers in the first leg. Giroud as the spearhead was supported by 3 midfielders Alexis Saelemaekers, Bennacer and Brahim Díaz. This might slightly reduce the intensity of attacks from Milan because we know that Leao is one of the major contributors to Milan's performance this season. I chose a draw, the second leg is the determination of who deserves to qualify for the final.

[rendravolt]

The confirmed line-up for Milan's semi-final first leg match against Inter which will be played shortly is now available. If we look at Milan using a 4-2-3-1 formation and as usual Olivier Giroud will be the spearhead for Milan. While Inter they are still using the formation they usually use 3-5-2 by focusing on attacks through Federico Di Marco and also Denzel Dumfres.

From Milan we don't see the name Rafael Leao in the starting line-up because he is still suffering from a groin injury and from Inter we don't see Romelu Lukaku in the line-up, it looks like Lukaku will come on in the second half to carry out an effective attack. Looking at the chances of which team will win in this match, in my opinion, it is quite difficult to predict, but I think Milan will narrowly win this match.

Another UEFA Champions League semi-final first leg will be between Milan and Inter. "Derby della Madonnina" will be a great pleasure to watch. I feel like we will watch a very enjoyable match.  In my opinion, the favorite team is Inter. I would also like to watch Hakan Çalhanoğlu in the final. Milan's starting XI against Inter: Maignan, Calabria, Kjaer, Tomori, Theo Hernandez, Bennacer, Tonali, Brahim, Krunic, Saelemaekers, Giroud. Inter's starting XI against Milan : Onana, Darmian, Acerbi, Bastoni, Dumfries, Barella, Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco, Lautaro, Dzeko.

In the first half Manchester City really dominated the game but unfortunately, Manchester City was not lucky because Manchester City could not score a goal in the first half and it was Real Madrid who won at half time. With a result like this, it's possible that Manchester City still can't beat Real Madrid and if that's still going to happen at this moment, then it's no longer bad luck but maybe a curse.

Because it is clear that at this moment Manchester City has a better squad and if I compare with Real Madrid then at least Manchester City still has a chance to qualify for the final. But after the first leg is played, I don't think Manchester City can promise with certainty to qualify for the Champions League final this season, because it looks like Real Madrid still has a big chance of qualifying for the final.

Just to add, even if that goal was reviewed by Var, then that goal shouldn't have been awarded as that was clearly a throwing for Real Madrid. Carlos Ancellotti was fumming as the officiating referee's judged the game wrongly as if they favoured a side over the other side.
City's pressure and attacking cooled down immediately Vinicius scored that goal they started playing the game with caution.

I'm part of the supporters that wanted my club Real Madrid to win yesterday's match against Manchester City but sometimes, too much Var analysis kills the fun of football. 5 years ago, Var was not around and Messi and Ronaldo were kicking asses but some referees bad decisions led to the implementation of Var which is not bad but sometimes, we have to give it some rest, if the referee wanted to be too professional, Cavajal would have bag straight red card yesterday, so it is safe to say that it was a fair match.

Tchouameni had a good shot on target but the effort was saved by Ederson, I don't really rate him so high, he is also not as good as people think he is, he's just been protected by a good defense and a side that keeps good ball possession. ( Though ) that's the work of a good defense. Manchester City lacked attacking on Real Madrid last night, I was anticipating for the substitution of Bernado Silva for Mahrez or for Foden. Good defending from Rudiger, caging Erling Haaland, Can same be repeated at Etihad?

Even with Real Madrid's incredible performance, their shots on target weren't upto what Manchester City had against them and I like how Ancelotti responded to Kroos misbehavior that gave him a yellow card, it was a good decision when he substituted Tchouameni in and he played very well with the limited time, above all Real Madrid tackles every move of Manchester City just that they slept on De Bruyne, they thought his main job was there to assist, I never expected that straight shot to come so easy when he got the chance.

One of them will eventually qualify for the final, but perhaps Milan have lesser chances than Inter. Inter basically has a much more stable performance than Milan, but I agree with one thing, the Champions League is always different especially regarding the atmosphere of the matches.

I also think that game will better than yesterday Real Madrid vs Manchester City. Inter Milan is the Favourite. They won the last two games against each other. On 5 February 1:0 and on 18 January 3:0. AC Milan beat Napoli in the Champions League, which gives them a bit more motivation. The betting odds also see Inter Milan as favourite. Win Inter Milan x2.35 and win AC Milan x3.00.

Edin Dzeko is in Rehe starting lineup, i think Romelu Lukaku is the netter Choice, he is 8 years younger. Dzeko has played over 70 CL games and has a lot of experience, but at 37 years old I don‘t think he will play more than 60 minutes today.

The absence of Rafael Leao is certainly a big loss for Milan. Nonetheless, it looks like Pioli is ready to face his eternal rival Inter Milan at the San Siro. However, if you look at some of their performances in Serie A, Milan have not been very consistent, but I see that the win over Lazio was a good capital for the Rossoneri. Meanwhile, Inter Milan is in good condition after being able to record five consecutive wins. The Nerazzurri also have a lot of ammunition ready to attack Milan's defense. But this is the Champions League which has a different atmosphere, it is very difficult to predict who will be the winner, it is possible that this game will end in a draw.

Even though Milan is not doing well compared to Inter, I'm sure Pioli has devised the right strategy to dampen Inter's flow of attack. In this match many people are betting that Inter will win, but I will choose Milan. I feel confident in Milan because they have European DNA and also have the experience of beating Napoli in the quarter-finals. If Pioli uses this strategy again, then victory will again overshadow Milan.

[LGD2Business]

I'm really having a hard time predicting this match. It's hard to predict who will win.
On one side we have Giroud, on the other we have Džeko and Martinez. No Leão, that's a great loss for Milan.
I think Inter is leading by a small margin but still the teams are very close to each other. Also, it's not easy to weigh these teams against their league performances, they play very differently in the Champions League. We expected Napoli to be here, but they didn't make it to the semi-finals. Inter and Milan, on the other hand, have great histories and have always played in the top rounds in this cup. I hope we watch a good game, not like a boring Serie A game with defenses in the foreground.

Inter now have five straight wins in Serie A. These have included victories over strong rivals such as Juventus, Lazio and Roma. So I think Inter will win. Especially since they have been in good shape lately. I think the rivals will play an open game to decide everything in the first match.

[naira]

8 minutes into the match, Inter immediately didn't want time to be wasted, the opportunity in front of their eyes was immediately put to good use and produced a goal. The match was quite intense for AC Milan who needed to be vigilant. The next 2 minutes the goal was created again very easily. The defense, which has many gaps, is clearly visible. Inter seemed to have won this match before it ended.

Milan's starting XI against Inter: Maignan, Calabria, Kjaer, Tomori, Theo Hernandez, Bennacer, Tonali, Brahim, Krunic, Saelemaekers, Giroud. Inter's starting XI against Milan : Onana, Darmian, Acerbi, Bastoni, Dumfries, Barella, Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco, Lautaro, Dzeko.

And now Inter Milan surprises us by having a 2 goal lead. Even though the match had only been running for about 18 minutes. I think from this result Inter Milan will be the winner of this match. AC Milan seems to have problems in their defense at the moment. Ac Milan is not as usual which always has a solid defense.

You shouldn't jump to conclusions. Perhaps Milan simply did not engage in the game immediately, it certainly played disastrously for them, but there is still a chance to equalize. However, they looked very poor at the beginning of the match, as if they were not ready at all. In any case, not even halfway through the first half, it's too early to say anything...

I do not understand what AC Milan is taking this champions league for. How can they conceive two goals within the first 10 minutes of the match while playing at home in the UEFA Champions League?
If they do not correct their mistakes especially the defensive mistake and continue, they will have to conceive more goals before the match ends besides their star man Raf Leoa who always penetrates from the top left is not fit for this match and that is a very big error or misfortune for the side of AC Milan.

Inter first surprised me in the matches with Barcelona, now something incredible is happening in the match with Milan. 0:2 in the 11th minute of the match is too unexpected for the Champions League semi-finals. Well, this is not the end of the match and Milan still has time to correct the situation, but still this is a very serious bid from Inter to win. Knowing how Inter is able to play defensively, I can say that Milan has very serious problems.

They thought they were playing against Napoli and took things easy but Inter recently is in a super form and they have won all their games plus in Champions League they are more motivated than Milan having won the last one in 2010 with Mourinho where they won everything back then,Serie A,Italian Cup and Champions League.I am not saying that they are going to become Champions this year too although that would be a beautiful surprise for me as a fan but the fact that they are beating Milan means a lot to me especially when I remember the lost bets on Napoli.

Inter was very close to the third goal so Milan is shocked already and I don't know if they will recover for this game.

You are right. right now it is too early to conclude. Because there is still a lot of time left in this match. But to be honest even I have bet on Inter Milan in this match. Because Ac Milan is in bad shape in Serie A. Even though in the last game yesterday Ac Milan returned to their best game but yeah I can still see the inconsistency of them. But right now Ac Milan seems to be starting to rebuild their strategy and currently they are playing much more calmly. and kept trying to penetrate Inter Milan's defense.

Inter Milan has score two goals within the first 11 minutes of the match. It is obvious that Inter is winning the match and from this result I will say that they have automatically qualify to the finals

The first goal was scored by Dzecko on the 8mins of the game. AC is trying to play the game with confidence and they are also looking for a way to cancel out one goal but it hasn't be easy to do that. AC problem is that most of they key players are on injury and they are not happy with this game. It is normal for inter to win AC. Rafeal Leao is not happy with his present injury state because he would have added great impact to his side.
