UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[legendbtc]

And Inter its out.
Good for Altleco in a very bad season.

Honestly I didn't think Inter could lose this game, they had even gone ahead and everything was pointing to a passage to the round, but that's ok, it means that this year their goal is just to win the Scudetto. As an Inter fan I am obviously sorry for this defeat, but honour to the winners who deserved more this passage of the round. Unfortunately for Italy there will be no more team to bring further points to the UEFA ranking

This is a very difficult match, and to be honest, I didn't think Inter Milan would lose and Atlético Madrid would qualify. This is because Inter Milan's play this season has led many to believe that they will advance far in the Champions League, but let's be honest, both teams take their games very seriously. However, I don't think Inter Milan performed as well as they could have because they aren't scoring goals the way they used to. Inter Milan will have opportunities to score, but they won't be able to convert shots. That's the nature of the game; no matter how strong a team is, they will eventually lose.

Inter Milan was hoping for better results after reaching the UEFA Champions League final last season. Now, having to stop at the 1/8 round is an unexpected result when coach Simone Inzaghi and his team are in good form and are highly appreciated in the European arena.
Inter Milan players had clear opportunities, especially in the final official minutes of the match. However, the attackers were unable to take full advantage of the opportunities and had to determine victory or defeat on the penalty spot. In this series of lucky shots, Inter Milan's expected stars Alexis Sanchez and captain Lautaro Martinez were not successful, causing the reigning runner-up team to receive a final defeat of 2-3 on the penalty spot and stop.

Congratulations to Atlético Madrid! I'm very pleased with their performance. Atlético Madrid made sure that there were plenty of La Liga teams in the quarterfinals. Since La Liga teams had not advanced to the quarterfinals of the Champions League in a long, they will now be happy. It will also be beneficial if La Liga teams win the Champions League this season because the Premier League team won it the previous season, so they should allow La Liga teams to win the league as well.

Atletico Madrid just played a great match against Inter Milan. They defeated their opponent 2-1 after 90 minutes, thereby balancing the score at 2-2 after two games. Koke tried his best, and Griezman kept going until he couldn't run anymore. Memphis Depay came on and appeared when the team needed him. Jan Oblak is one of the best goalkeepers in the world. He showed that today.

I was quite surprised that Inter went out on penalties and yes, Lautaro Martinez was a concern because his shot didn't go in the right direction and that was also what let Atletico Madrid through. Honestly, it was very stressful to see Inter being careless in taking the penalty.
However, Inter have dropped out of the race for the top 8 in the UCL and there will be a big evaluation ahead.

Congratulations to Atletico Madrid who fought until the end and showed an extraordinary mentality, since the first half Simeone's troops were intent on winning. For Inter, it is time for them to return to Serie A and improve the mentality of their players, while the special words for Lautaro Martinez were that his kick was very disappointing, and really made Inter fans quite annoyed to see it.

The Spanish teams have been dominating the champions league in terms of appearance for quite some seasons now as there were 5 teams that made it to the Champions league this season which are: Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Sevilla, and Real Sociedad. After which apart from Sevilla, all the other teams made it to the knockout stages and now Real Sociedad couldn't make it to the quarter finals thereby leaving the three teams that have always dominated the la Liga.

Is obvious that football is unpredictable mostly when two bigger team are in play, I never imagine inter milan been wiped out from the UEFA champion league just like that, after embarking on this long journey.however when we talk about teams that have UEFA champion league experience I think ATM is always the number one, mean while ATM have not been doing well in their main league,but there performance yesterday was surprising so I think they know themselves.

[$anounimus$]

truly an amazing match. it was difficult for Inter to win and maintain their lead in the first leg. Of course, getting a win at Atletico's home ground is not easy.
but it was an extraordinary match, even though in the end Inter had to admit Atletico's superiority. both teams played with full strength, and although I lost my bet, I have no regrets about this extraordinary match.

Although I already suspect that Atletico Madrid will be able to make things difficult for Inter Milan in the second leg. But I didn't expect that in the end Inter Milan would be eliminated in the round of 16. I predict that this match will be a match that results in a draw that allows Inter Milan to still qualify. But my prediction was wrong and I also lost my bet. Luckily I didn't bet big on that match. Because I know that the results will be difficult to predict. Atletico Madrid have now managed to qualify for the quarter-finals and this will be a good opportunity for them to repeat history to go further in the UCL as Atletico Madrid has always done before. It's just that I think in the quarter-finals things will become more difficult for Atletico Madrid. So I predict that Atletico Madrid will stop in the quarter-finals. And will not make it through to the semi-finals.

Yes, this is really a wrong prediction. Inter should have been able to control the game or at least just force the score to a draw. I saw that during normal times, Inzaghi made changes to the scheme by pulling out several players at once at the end of time, even though if Inzaghi had been able to restrain himself, perhaps Atletico Madrid's second goal would not have been scored. The defeat was certainly very disappointing for Inter fans and several people also lost their bets.

Are you f**king serious? The champions league is a competition that is being won by the team that deserves it the most, not zoning if it's politics or the Spanish team will say, it's our turn.

Actually it's sounds really funny sayings that they should leave it for a Spanish team to win it as well,  besides the most decorated team in the history of the champions league is from Spain, real madrid to be precise.

And as for the game against Atletico madrid vs inter Milan,  I think it was a fair contest, atletico madrid really up their game in this reverse fixture compared to the first encounter between them both, and I feel like their winning is well deserved, because they fought till the very end.

It seems like the teams from Laliga are having pretty good luck this season. This is different from last season where the teams from La Liga were eliminated early except for Real Madrid. Even Barcelona and Atletico Madrid failed in the group stage last season. But this season, both of them managed to go further. I congratulate all the teams who have managed to progress further in the Champions League this season.

My favorite for this season will probably remain Man City. because so far only Man City looks the strongest of all the teams that have qualified for the quarter-finals. Even now, I haven't seen Man City having any difficulties since the group stage, even in the round of 16 yesterday.

The match was very fierce regardless of the final result but this match was worthy enough to be a big match where the match tension did not even drop in the 90 minutes of the match and I like matches like this.
From the beginning it was very difficult to predict who would be able to win in the match between Inter and Atletico because the opportunity was still open to both and indeed the match in 90 minutes of normal time +30 minutes of extra time was proof that both wanted a good result even though the mentality on penalties was very difficult for some players to dupe.

Atletico and Dortmund caught up with other clubs to be in the quarter-finals but indeed in this Atletico match I will also praise the performance of Inter who fought to the end even though in the penalty shootout they lost but their performance was very good and it deserves to be given an applause because of its performance.

btw with this result then indirectly the achievement of Serie A clubs stopped after previously clubs in Serie A managed to become finalists in the Champions League, Europa League and Conference Leagye but for this season 3 Serie A representatives must be eliminated in the round of 16.

[Polkeins]

Damn! Depay gave them the chance to go for a shootout but Oblak is definitely the Hero of the night for Atletico Madrid. This is a great night for their fans.
Tough loss to Inter but they brought it upon themselves for being the "passive" team in this encounter.

What a thrilling end to the round of 16 and looking forward to the draw.

Depay's 87th-minute goal for Athletico Madrid was enough to send Athletico Madrid and Inter Milan to a penalty shootout in their UEFA Champions League last-16 match yesterday night. Martinez missed Inter Milan's last penalty to help Athletico Madrid qualify for the quarterfinal of the UEFA Champions League competition.

To be honest, Atletico Madrid's performance really impressed me. Because I thought I would see Inter Milan dominating this match as usual. Because we don't see a better performance from Atletico Madrid in the last few matches in La Liga. Atletico Madrid have lost two of their last five matches and drawn one. The team was not in good form.

On the other hand, Inter Milan's players were in great form in Serie A. For this reason, Inter Milan team was considered as one of the favorite teams for this year's Champions League title. But in yesterday's match, Atletico Madrid players showed great dominance. In the entire match, Atletico Madrid players made 23 shots, 9 of which were on target. On the other hand, Inter Milan players made 15 shots. Atletico Madrid performed well and they deserve to win this match.

Atletico Madrid impressed many fans yesterday. After the defeat from Cadiz, one of the weakest teams in La Liga, no one expected that Atletico Madrid could beat the strongest team in Serie A and although everything was decided in a penalty shootout, which is always a lottery, but we must admit that Atletico Madrid was closer to victory and if not for Sommer, Depay would have scored not one, but at least 2-3 goals, but Sommer did everything he could, as well as Oblak.

To some extent it was a match of goalkeepers who made a lot of saves and if it wasn't for Sommer, Inter wouldn't have even reached the penalty shootout.

[bering]

After yesterday's qualifying round, this year's Quarterfinals witnessed the teams considered the strongest in this tournament. Many attractive clash scenarios can happen. Real can meet PSG, and this is certainly a good opportunity for Real to prove to Mbappe where he needs to go. Besides, teams that have not returned to the quarter-finals such as Arsenal and Barca for a long time also brought certain surprises. And surely the team that Arsenal doesn't want to meet the most is Bayern, as in history they have always lost miserably when they faced each other. This will be an opportunity for Arsenal to take revenge if they meet each other.
An equally dramatic scenario when civil war matchs will occur. Real will meet Barca, and Arsenal will meet Mancity. They are competing against each other in the domestic tournament, and now if they meet in the quarter-finals, Arsenal has a chance to overthrow Mancity's UCL throne, then maybe in the Premier League. But Mancity's maturity and experience in the UCL arena is certainly better than Arsenal's, so this task will be extremely difficult for them if they encounter Mancity in the quarterfinals. Each team in this round all creates other dramatic and attractive matches

Atletico Madrid is being an the last team who qualified to the quarterfinal stages after dramatically they can able to beat Inter Milan through an penalty shootout and so far Spanish teams has been dominate that stage because they have 3 representative teams such as Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid and following them England teams and Germany teams has 2 representative each that England has Manchester City and Arsenal but Germany has Dortmund and Bayern Munich and the team who qualified to the quarterfinal is mostly big teams and not impossible some of those big teams will met early on that stage

As far i know for quarterfinal drawing matches there was no more pot 1 or pot 2 which mean every teams have same possibilities to met each other on this stage although they are the teams from the same countries but i expect Manchester City will met Real Madrid on this stage because it could be very interesting because both teams is favourite champion because Real Madrid as the most champion of this competition and Manchester City as defending champion and very interesting to know who is the winner of this match if this really happend

[Helena Yu]

OMG what a comeback by Atletico Madrid!

Lose in the first leg and down by two goals, but they still able to equalize the points and win the penalty, what a mentality by Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid can't be underestimated anymore since they can make a runner up in the previous season can't qualify for quarter final.

[FinePoine0]

And Inter its out.
Good for Altleco in a very bad season.

This game was played full of great competition, because currently Atletico Madrid is the best as the strongest. Because the field survived by performing for a long time and still survives in the Champions League with victory. So the performance of the best is always the best, having performed for so long it is a match full of vast experience.

[Velvet78]

Last night I saw how much I was wrong about Atletico Madrid. I saw Inter as a way higher favourite to reach the quarter finals. Especially after seeing Inter scoring first I was more confident. I think if it weren't for Griezmann's very early answer this comeback might not have got real. We saw how important Griezmann is for this team once again. I saw his condition as doubtful until the game time got very close.

However I think the biggest share in this huge comeback and win belongs to Simeone. Because his moves in the second half made a big impact on the game.    By the way the penalty Lautaro missed might haunt him for a while. 

[Cryptmuster]

To be honest, Atletico Madrid's performance really impressed me. Because I thought I would see Inter Milan dominating this match as usual. Because we don't see a better performance from Atletico Madrid in the last few matches in La Liga. Atletico Madrid have lost two of their last five matches and drawn one.

On the other hand, Inter Milan players made 15 shots. Atletico Madrid performed well and they deserve to win this match.

I do not agree that Inter was one of the favorites of this Champions League, the favorites now are still Real and City. Atletico played better, they had more desire, the attacks were more dangerous, in general, considering that it was an away game for Inter, I will say that they also played a very good match, but after Atletico scored the second goal, it was clear that the hosts had an emotional advantage. In any case, everything was decided by a penalty shootout, and Oblak was magnificent.

[Uruhara]

OMG what a comeback by Atletico Madrid!

Lose in the first leg and down by two goals, but they still able to equalize the points and win the penalty, what a mentality by Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid can't be underestimated anymore since they can make a runner up in the previous season can't qualify for quarter final.

In the past, Atletico Madrid was a team that was quite feared. But last season they couldn't even get past the group stage. So certainly not many people will think that they can beat Inter Milan, who have been very solid this season in Serie A. And Inter Milan is also the team that managed to reach the final last season in the UCL. So it is natural that many are surprised by Atletico Madrid's success in stopping Inter Milan in the round of 16. Now Atletico Madrid just needs to think about how they can advance further and face a strong team in the quarter-finals.

Although I know that Athletico are very strong too, especially when they are playing at home, they will be stronger, and I know that they won’t disappoint, which is what happened. However, I also thought that Inter Milan were going to win the game by all means to maintain their position in the table, but they didn’t manage to do that, although Athletico were playing at home, so unfortunately, they will do everything to make their fans proud, so I think this is not a bad result for Inter Milan either, but in the second, I hope they should win against Athletico.
 
Further, Athletico were fully ready for it because they know how strong Inter Milan are and they will not want them to come home and beat them. That is why I wasn't surprised by their performance, though they made it tough for Inter Milan.

Even though they are not the top team, what is interesting is that Atletico Madrid always displays fighting power which is certainly capable of making opponents unable to move. Simeone is the most phenomenal figure with Atletico, he is able to turn the team into a very violent one at crucial times. Meanwhile, Inter, who are the favorites to qualify for the quarter-finals, must recognize Atletico's greatness in being able to force them to submit through the penalty shootout. Here the mentality of the Atletico players is more visible and they don't seem to have any pressure at all.

I didn't expect Atletico to make it through to the next round after beating Inter Milan 2-1. But to be honest I didn't think Inter lost last night. A 2-1 win makes the aggregate 2-2 and that means a draw. Atletico was lucky because they managed to win the penalty shootout. I'm not underestimating Atletico and I know being a penalty taker isn't easy either. But overall both teams deserve to be appreciated. Both teams played very well and I really favor Inter Milan to qualify for the next round. Congratulations to Atletico for breaking everyone's expectations. I think many people supported Inter Milan last night, right?

[Distraction]

The teams to compete in the quarter finals round have finally been decided!



The only one that I didn't expect to happen was Atletico Madrid's reaching this round. The way they fought back last night was incredible! Simeone is really one of the special managers. The player changes he made directly changed the direction of the match was going.    Oblak was one of the heros of the night thanks to his 2 crucial saves during penalty shoot-outs.

It was really disappointing to see Inter being eliminated while having a wonderful season.    But the job gets really difficult while playing an away match against Atletico Madrid in some way. It is like that especially in the Champions League.

[joniboini]

I think many people supported Inter Milan last night, right?

What makes you say so? Because they have a decent season? Judging from the match alone, I'd say Atletico has a slight edge over them. They should've scored probably one or two goals more before they went into penalties IIRC. I think Inter failed to cope with Atletico's attack, probably due to the home advantage since it is clear that their performance was affected by their mentality. As a neutral, I don't favor one over the other, but I'd say Inter's loss is not surprising judging from how the match goes and they should accept it to get better next season. No point saying they didn't lose or were unlucky since it doesn't change anything. Better accept the fact and move on so their next performance will be as good or even better as before.

The way they fought back last night was incredible! Simeone is really one of the special managers.

It makes you wonder why they got so defensive in a match sometimes, even against team that are not favorites in the competition they're fighting for in the past.
