UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Jody.Drummer]

Inter came out of the block in rapid fashion taking their rival with great surprise with two goals inside the neat within 15 minutes into the game the game would have been laid to rest after a dominant first-half display which saw Hakan hit the post and Var overturned a penalty decision. Despite their woeful start Milan improved after the break but they were little they could do to change the scoreline.

But I hope that in the second leg later these two teams can play even better. especially AC Milan which was very disappointing in the first half. as if they lack experience in the Champions League. Even though, as we know, Ac Milan is the second record holder for the team that has won the most trophies in the Champions League. I think Inter Milan will not be easy to qualify for the Final. Because in the second leg there will be many surprises from Ac Milan.

Yes, you are right, it seems that in the first leg match AC Milan lacked motivation in the game, so it was difficult for them to catch up after they conceded 2 goals in the first 15 minutes. If this continues in the second leg, then this is a very profitable thing for Inter Milan, because they only need to get a draw in the second leg match later to qualify for the final round. Even if they lose, if their loss is 1 goal, then they will still have their two feet in the final.

Man City - Real Madrid got everything open with a simple 1-1

Manchester City in this case remain the favorites to be able to step both their feet into the final, this is because they will act as hosts in the decisive match of the second leg later. But on the other hand Real Madrid is a club that cannot be underestimated even though this is their home match, because we know their history in the second leg match, in the first leg they lost, but when playing in the second leg they seem to want to show that they are the masters of the Champions League with the surprise surprise they did. It's not easy to predict this game, even though we know now many people choose Manchester City.

It's true that Manchester City have never lost at home and they always manage to beat their opponents when they host. If we look at the matches in the previous rounds this season when Manchester City played away games against Bayern Munich and also Leipzig, most of them always ended in draws and most recently they also managed to hold Real Madrid to a draw at the Santiago Bernabeu.

It seems that Manchester City will still be favored to win at home regardless of what will happen, but still their opponent is Real Madrid, which sometimes can turn things around even at home. This will be a place to prove whether Manchester City is able to maintain its unbeaten record at home or Real Madrid manages to break this record at home to Manchester City later.

I don't think Real Madrid understand the idea of home and away because even away in the Champions league they will be playing at top level to ensure they win. My advice to Manchester City is to never expect Real Madrid to back down even at the Ethihad stadium, they will give everything to win.

Even the coach Pep Guardiola has great respect for Real Madrid because he knows that his opponent is not an arbitrary team and always has a history in this highest European competition. We can see in the first leg when Manchester City had an away match against Real Madrid, there Pep Guardiola did not replace a single player in the second half, even though it was already seen that several of his players were already experiencing fatigue, but Pep Guardiola still forced his players to survive until the match was over. It was so clear that Pep Guardiola was very wary of what Real Madrid would do if he changed any of his players and he didn't want that to happen, luckily they held on to a draw.

The second leg will be a proving ground for these two teams, but Manchester City is still the favorite to qualify for the final round, while Real Madrid, as usual, is not the favourite. I think Real Madrid will still qualify for the final even if it is an away game because they don't differentiate anywhere, as long as they have 90 minutes they will do everything to win.

King of comeback, manchester city shall always remember that. It's very hard to beat real madrid. Even though when madrid was in a critical condition and it can still leave from it. The history has been telling us about how madrid is able making comeback at the end of game so many times. Manchester city has seen that in the previuos UCL. Rodrygo was making a goal which was giving real madrid comeback. The king of comeback is not only an ordinary name for real madrid but it's also based on the history of real madrid.

How real madrid was able comeback against any big clubs at the end of match after it was getting under pressure. Real madrid is not only having good players, but it has also good mentality as well.
That's why when people said that madrid will be losing against city and i just try to remember if madrid was king of comeback. I do believe if madrid can do a magic that will change the situation drastically in a short time.
People called real madrid king of comeback based on the result in the past and how madrid was able making dramatic comeback many times.

I personally would also favor Manchester City in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid. But even so, I'm also not really sure about the superiority of Manchester City, which will host the second leg later. Because Real Madrid does have a different mentality from other teams. They will literally fight to the last second. Even last season Manchester City had to swallow a very bitter defeat because Real Madrid managed to turn things around in the last minutes in the second leg of last season's semi-finals.

But I really hope that at least for this season I want to see Manchester City finally able to stand in the final round and lift the trophy for the first time. Because there have been too many hard struggles for them to run aground in the middle of the road. This season even I see Manchester City have a better level of play than last season.

This game is getting interesting and now in the second leg, both teams got the same situation. I was thinking Manchester City win the game in the first leg against Real Madrid because of the better situation they have but now I expect to see Manchester City winning the match.

This away game will also prove again that Madrid still has Champions League DNA. I'm sure Ancelotti will really consider all possibilities for his players to show maximum results. Playing at home to Manchester City right now might not be easy, but as we have seen Madrid mentality has been formed and they are used to playing wherever they are against. Seeing how Vini Jr, Rodrygo, and Camavinga are no longer players who are not used to big matches. They may be young but in Madrid, it's clear that a lot has been going on. Even during Leg 1, everything looked pretty good and there was nothing to worry about. Haaland, who was expected to stand out, was not seen at all in Leg 1.

I like the way the first leg ended because I don't think that any of the two teams have an advantage over the other. You might say that because Man city is playing at home,therefore, they have an upper hand over Madrid but I don't think so because, there is nothing like home when Real Madrid is in a stage like this. I just hope the there should be a clear victory between this two teams and let it not lead to a PK after 120mins. Man city hardly has lost at home against Real Madrid,which makes it more interesting to see how the second leg game will end. When it comes to time like this Real Madrid are always lucky to in their match.

I don't think Manchester City is favorite team in the second leg Champion League semifinal against Real Madrid, however first leg City success getting draw but Real Madrid have winning mentality in Champion  League than Manchester City less experienced and Pep Guardiola miss long time with UCL trophy. Optimistic with Real Madrid achievement last several season success winning Champion League tittle back to back for three time and winning this season will make another new record for Real Madrid.

Manchester City has ambition with Champion League tittle because have participants many time always failed and the best achievement when qualifying to final stage but defeated by Chelsea.

Many predicted that Manchester City would beat Real Madrid in the first leg, but in the match Real Madrid ended the match without defeat. What's even more impressive is that Manchester City's attackers, who are known to be very tough, don't seem to move in front of Real Madrid's defenders. I think now that Manchester City has a secret weapon, because in the first leg they played without changing strategy by making substitutions. There are still Manchester City players who can become their ace in the second leg later, that's what Real Madrid must watch out for in the second leg later.

[X-ray]

Congratulations to Roma for the favour they got from bayer Leverkusen in the first leg that made their fans celebrated through out the day because the beginning of the match made many people feel bad about the results in the first half. But Roma coach gave words of advice to his players that made the match to changed positively in the second half to allowed Roma strikers to work together to achieved a goal at 63 minutes to reduced the strength and confidence of Bayer Leverkusen through out the match. Bayer Leverkusen really demonstrated well in the first half to make the match draw 0-0, but their defenders got weak in the second half that made Roma to defeated them 1-0.

It must be on europa league speculation thread and this is not a correct place to put your post.
I guess that if you were not reading the title before. As roma rarely played in UCL. This is not the right place to talk about europa league. I hope that you can be more thorough when posting your post.

Manchester City will win the second leg. Madrid may be a different breed in the champions league but they won't be able to overpower Man City this time around. City has the advantage of playing at home, and no matter how people may argue it, there is a home advantage in football.
A team playing in front of 40,000 of their fans shouting their names is way more motivating than playing away, especially in competitions like this and at this stage. Madrid are big boys and are very experienced but with the way Man City play with the backing of their fans, they will be near impossible to stop.
I expected City to win the first league but they didn't and I wasn't too surprised. Madrid is not a team that loses home and away too often. 
It's an exciting fixture and I would love to see how it plays out.

I still believe that Real Madrid will win at the Etihad Stadium, even though City have dominated everyone at this stadium. I can't say that the task is easy as City beat Schalke 7-0, Arsenal 4-0, Liverpool 4-0, Bayern Munich 3-1, Chelsea and Tottenham 4-1 each. So yes, City is terrifying at home.

But that's not the whole story, when Real Madrid went to Manchester in 2000 to face the strongest team in the world at the time (Manchester United) after drawing 0-0 in Santiago Bernabeu, they were told: you can't win at Old Trafford because the Reds had not lost at home that season, nor had they lost at their home stadium for a year and a half!

Real Madrid's response was to lead 3-0 in 53 minutes, then win 3-2, qualify for the semi-finals of the Champions League and then win the title.

Winning away from home is Real Madrid's specialty, you could ask that to Liverpool at least, this season they only lost at Anfield to Leeds United but lost to Real Madrid, or ask Barcelona how they lost the Copa del Rey after a 4-0 defeat at the Camp Nou, even though they had only lost once before in a match that didn't affect anything.

In short, City is very strong at home but if anyone can stop them it's Real Madrid and the matter is conditional on Karim Benzema returning to form, without him Real Madrid will not qualify and none of their best players are performing well.

And from our knowledge of Benzema, he's really capable of returning.

Everything is open in the return match, can't wait to see how things will go but I'm pretty sure it'll be such a really good game.

Nothing is lost yet for Real Madrid as we are still speaking about Real Madrid and not Elche or Getafe. I think everyone agrees that Real Madrid isn't going there without any chances. They are too strong and the result was a draw, not a loss by 3 goals.

But Real Madrid missed the chance to put themselves into a good starting position for the second leg. Especially when the first leg ends closely like a draw or a 1 goal difference only, I think it is a significant advantage if you play the second leg at home. That's not like a walkover into the next round, but it is an advantage.

You went back to the year 2000 to find an example that comes close to the conditions now between Manchester City and Real Madrid. The reason is that more often than not the home team is winning. But nobody who followed the Champions League in recent years forgot what Real Madrid did in this competition.

As the host, of course, City will be favored, that's why it's important to draw at home to Madrid so that it's easier to win the game at home to City, even though it's only a narrow win, I'm sure that this season belongs to Manchester City to win the UCL, but Madrid will of course put up a fight like they are playing at home. Previously, Haaland could barely move and move and I hope Haaland can play like a goal machine at the Etihad in the second leg.

I don't want to be overly confident but I feel sure that City have a high desire to win the UCL this season as we know that they also have a grudge last season for their humiliating defeat, I hope City really do better in the second leg later against madrid at home.

[laurenB7742]

Such a poor night for Milan. I didn't see as big effort as I expected from them. Because there were big problems with the shots. This 2-0 loss already in the first game can be a serious issue for Milan in the second leg. I was expecting Inter to play good but this was more than I expected. After capturing this psychological advantage Inter can most probably eliminate them.
I wonder why Inzaghi didn't prefer Lukaku in the starting lineup this time. He has been in a good shape recently actually.

I would say AC Milan was unlucky to lose so badly at home. Inter Milan is a very tactical team. They conceded the first goal in the 8th minute and quickly conceded another goal. Before AC Milan could organize their defense, Inter Milan went ahead with two consecutive goals. And later on, Inter Milan was more focused on keeping their defence tight than attacking. However, Inter Milan's players were able to mount several excellent counter-attacks. Overall the match was very enjoyable. AC Milan are unlikely to qualify for the final after losing 2-0 at home.

Milan did not show the game with high standard games they were very chaotic so Inter immediately punished at the beginning of the first half. For the second leg no longer hope for Milan, Simone Inzaghi will lock in the results of today's match and will not provide room for his rivals. I made sure Inter was able to set foot in Istanbul.

AC Milan's match strategy was not good. I would say this is the main reason for their defeat. I consider Inter Milan and AC Milan squads to be almost equally strong. However, AC Milan players disappointed the fans in the home match. They should have performed better. However, it is highly unlikely that AC Milan will win the away match by more than 2 goals after a 2-0 defeat in the home match. Because AC Milan's forwards are not very strong. Moreover, we will see a more aggressive form of Inter Milan in the home match in the second leg. My guess is Inter Milan will win the second leg like the first leg.

when ever we consider a situation where the supposed favourable side is unable to win in such a stage of the Europa competition,  the probability of them winning the away match is always low but very much imminent.   I don't have any doubt if I think of a come back result in favour of AC Milan at Angelo Morati. There is every tendency that inter Milan can as well disappoint their fans in the home match. So let us not use the first leg as a yard stick to measure or predict what the next meeting would be.

If Inter Milan had won the first leg 1-0 then I think there was a possibility for AC Milan, to perform well in the second leg to qualify for the final. But AC Milan lost 2-0 in the home match. AC Milan players can't score any goals. Now in the away match, AC Milan will play very well and win by 3 goals which is unlikely. Because Inter Milan is a very tactical team. As they are already 2-0 up, they will play a completely defensive strategy in the home match of the second leg. AC Milan will not be able to defeat Inter Milan if Inter Milan plays a defensive strategy. That's what I think.

Man City - Real Madrid got everything open with a simple 1-1

Manchester City in this case remain the favorites to be able to step both their feet into the final, this is because they will act as hosts in the decisive match of the second leg later. But on the other hand Real Madrid is a club that cannot be underestimated even though this is their home match, because we know their history in the second leg match, in the first leg they lost, but when playing in the second leg they seem to want to show that they are the masters of the Champions League with the surprise surprise they did. It's not easy to predict this game, even though we know now many people choose Manchester City.

I personally would also favor Manchester City in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid. But even so, I'm also not really sure about the superiority of Manchester City, which will host the second leg later. Because Real Madrid does have a different mentality from other teams. They will literally fight to the last second. Even last season Manchester City had to swallow a very bitter defeat because Real Madrid managed to turn things around in the last minutes in the second leg of last season's semi-finals.

But I really hope that at least for this season I want to see Manchester City finally able to stand in the final round and lift the trophy for the first time. Because there have been too many hard struggles for them to run aground in the middle of the road. This season even I see Manchester City have a better level of play than last season.

For Manchester city now it will be starting to look like de-ja-vu for them that same feeling of something that has occurred before but hopefully for their sake history doesn't get to repeat himself again. Pep guadiola will be well of this Madrid side that has continued to him since from the past and he will be looking to finally break this barrier of the champions league on them by defeating real Madrid which everyone knows are the king of the champions league and all I would say on this issue is that I wish pep and men GOODLUCK because they will definitely need when the time comes.

Still a busy schedule for the players of the CL. There is only a week between the out and back duel. Isn't that too much to ask of these teams and players? In the competitions they also have to be present, the chance of injuries or not being fit seems to me to be considerable through this way. But maybe these pros have gotten used to that lately. I think Manchester City is the favorite to win the title, but Real Madrid is a team that should not be underestimated. Last year they lost 4-3 in City, but they managed to score no less than 3 away goals. Who can do that in a stadium at Manchester City? I would like it for Guardiola if they could win the CL once this season.

This game is getting interesting and now in the second leg, both teams got the same situation. I was thinking Manchester City win the game in the first leg against Real Madrid because of the better situation they have but now I expect to see Manchester City winning the match.

I'm also starting to have the notion that Manchester City will feel more relaxed when playing at home in the second leg, but I also have another opinion about this because Manchester City still need to be more consistent in the second leg. This means that Manchester City's opponent is a really balanced opponent for them this season so it would be very wrong if Manchester City underestimated Real Madrid in the second leg because Real Madrid still has the possibility to surprise Manchester City in the second leg.

[Unsoldier]

The second leg will be a proving ground for these two teams, but Manchester City is still the favorite to qualify for the final round, while Real Madrid, as usual, is not the favourite. I think Real Madrid will still qualify for the final even if it is an away game because they don't differentiate anywhere, as long as they have 90 minutes they will do everything to win.

Ancelotti has managed to build up Real Madrid's game so that Haaland is unable to perform to his full potential. If the Spanish club can play the same way in the second match, then it is very likely that the Citizens will lose. Man City will not be helped by the Etihad and the English fans unless Guardiola finds a method of making Haaland play to his full potential.

Last season, I actually considered Real Madrid's victory in the second leg of the semi-final to be some kind of luck or miracle. Because in fact throughout the match from the first minute to the 90th minute, Man City played really well in maintaining the aggregate advantage they had. but somehow Man City was caught off guard from 90 minutes. and Real Madrid actually got very good towards the end of the match and managed to score 3 goals in a short time. Man City was very frustrating last season. And I think this season they should have deserved more for the final. provided that Man City no longer makes mistakes like last season.
