UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

Barcelona leads by a goal with their first attempt on goal, I'm Not very comfortable with their defensive play pattern. It looks effective now, but I know PSG players will get more creative and exploit that leak. The  opposition are really pressing the Barcelona defense. Lamal was very instrumental in Barcelona goal by beating the defender and giving Raphinha the accurate assist that put them in front.

PSG is showing more energy and optimism tonight as against Barcelona, they may likely convert one in no distant time. Barcelona strength lies in their counter attacks and the accuracy of their few strikes. Lewandowski missed a clear chance now, hope he comes back to converting the next ones.

[Arenga pinnata]

L.Yamal seems to be increasingly becoming a mature young player. Now he has contributed 1 assist for 1 goal for Barcelona scored by Rapinha. With this goal, Barcelona has a 4-2 aggregate advantage. And it looks like PSG's journey is now getting tougher. Even though they continued to control the match by dominating possession of the ball, they still had difficulty penetrating Barcelona's defense. And I increasingly believe that Barcelona will advance to the semi-finals. And Xavi looks to make an interesting starting eleven.

Barcelona played effectively in this match. They didn't have much of the ball but they made good use of it when the chances were on their side. Just now Lewandowski also almost scored a goal. Unfortunately, Lewandowski still failed to be accurate with his kick. And in this match I think PSG's defense was a little shaky because they were too focused on attacking.

Regarding the young player that Barcelona has, namely Lamine Yamal, he is very reliable. He is increasingly showing good self-confidence on the field. Lamine Yamal's mentality is getting better. And next season maybe he will be a player the team will really rely on. And being still 16 years old also gives him the opportunity to become a brighter star on the field from a young age.

Counter attacking football is also another way to go about and besides with the likes of Robert lewandoski upfront,I believe they might bang another one in no distant time. PSG is pressing hard obviously because they are the ones at the losing end and that's basically the force of a team who knows that are at the verge of being kicked out of the champions league so I guess they have to press and see if any loop hole is available for exploit but for now they still have to deal with the fact that tactics can lead to more goals being conceded .

Barcelona vs PSG
Aggregate: 3-2

Barcelona StartXI: 4-3-3
Marc-André ter Stegen; Jules Koundé; Ronald Araújo; Pau Cubarsí; João Cancelo; Pedri; Frenkie de Jong; İlkay Gündoğan; Lamine Yamal; Robert Lewandowski; Raphinha

Paris Saint Germain StartXI: 4-3-3
Gianluigi Donnarumma; Achraf Hakimi; Marquinhos; Lucas Hernández; Nuno Mendes; Warren Zaïre-Emery; Vitinha; Fabián Ruiz; Bradley Barcola; Kylian Mbappé; Ousmane Dembélé

Barcelona is cruising to victory with little to no resistance from PSG. It is somehow disappointing because many football lovers expected PSG to be able to subdue Barcelona this season because Barcelona have not been playing so perfectly like they use to. PSG have actually made some good attempts but the result is not there to justify such attempt. The aggregate now stand at 4-2 and the match is still being played with equal strength. Now PSG have won a penalty which when converted will bring the hope of PSG back. Under live bets, one can just give this match to PSG if they score their penalty because that goal will change everything.

 Oh penalty changed to indirect kick and a red card issued to Ronald Araujo of Barcelona. Let's see how PSG will manage this match.

In fact, PSG also attacks, and there were several dangerous moments, but now that Barcelona got a penalty, PSG can actively start to press, which will allow them to take advantage of the majority and break the opponent psychologically. The suspension was fair, even more than fair, so Barcelona will have a tough time either way

I don’t know about what Bayern deserves - they have been unsuccessful all season and at the moment they have the same number of points as Stuttgart (which last season risked leaving the Bundesliga). Bookmakers quote Bayern much worse than they quoted Arsenal in the home game, Bayern have odds of 2.40 for the upcoming game and Arsenal have odds of 2.82. In fact, these are equal chances with a slight formal advantage for the hosts.

Bayern is a disappointment this season and betting on Bayern is the same as asking to lose money, but Bayern were very lucky that their opponent at this stage was Arsenal, which is a real disaster worse than Bayern in my opinion. I say this because in the case of Arsenal, in recent times they always play well from the beginning of the season until close to the end of the season. but when there are 10 games left until the end of the season then the arsenal becomes a huge disaster, and this disappoints its fans in the premier league. But Arsenal can be worse than that, in the European Champions League they didn't even manage to beat Porto comfortably. So looking at Arsenal's performance in the European Champions League, I would say that they only reached this stage because they were lucky to play against weak teams, such as Sevilla, Lens, PSV and Porto who are not doing well this season. Bayern has been a team that even when they are poor in the Bundesliga, in the Champions League at least they have been good, that's why I see Bayern winning this game, they play well when they are with Kingsley Coman
~

Maybe you're right, we'll see tomorrow. But I must note that Bayern’s opponents in the group stage and in the 1/8 were also very weak, and although Bayern won the group very confidently, they had big problems with Lazio (which is very weak this season). In fact, this is a game of two weak, incompetent teams, but the difference is that Bayern have been like this all season, and Arsenal have (so far only supposedly) entered this phase only now.

PSG continued to pressure Barcelona's defense from the start. But Barcelona continued to make good defense throughout the match. and this is what makes PSG difficult. Apart from that, PSG also wasted opportunities several times by making poor shooting accuracy. So I think Barcelona is becoming more comfortable with their current strategy.

But after Ronald Araujo received a red card in the 29th minute, PSG became more comfortable in attacking. but they haven't been able to make good use of it until now. And Xavi also seems to have made some changes and replaced Lamine Yamal with Iñigo Martínez Berridi who is a defender. So with this, Barcelona's defense remains strong. But Barcelona will be weak in attack. So it can be said that Barcelona really intends to secure their current lead. and may no longer prioritize adding goals with only 10 players remaining.

PSG managed to equalize the score at 1-1 thanks to a goal scored by Dembele in the 40th minute. And PSG's defense was indeed shaky. but that was only temporary and we can see now that PSG's defense has actually become more solid. And on the other hand, Barcelona's defense weakened after losing one of their defenders due to a red card. Now with an aggregate of 4-3, I think PSG's chances are big again in this match. Because Barcelona with only 10 players will be very difficult to maintain their lead.
The first half is almost over and maybe Barcelona will just try to maintain the current score with the remaining time in the first half. And will think about a better strategy in the second half.

[execijutiere]

Dortmund led well in the first half as I expected. I have taken 2 kinds of bets but I think at least one of them will come. I played both 2-1 score and the score may not come, but I played both dortmund wins and 2.5 over and I think it will come. The red card will change the course of the Barcelona match. I was thinking that this match could be 2-2 but the red card will be a bit of a problem.

Barcelona started very well in this match as Rafinha gave them an early lead in the 12th minutes of play only for Araujo R to have an early red card in the 29th minutes thereby causing serious pressure on the barcelona side and they conceded goal courtesy of Dembele.

I feel it will be difficult for Barcelona to cope with this early red card so more pressure is expected to come from the PSG side in the second half as they are on 1:1 score in the first half now.  The only strategy that may save Barcelona is if they play a defensive game in the second half rather than attacking because if they attack PSG, they will use a counter attack to penetrate the defense of Barcelona and since Araujo have created a loop hole in his position due to the red card, PSG may have an easy access to score more goals in the second half so more of the the pressure will be against Barcelona.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

Dortmund in a really strong position at half time, leading 2-0 on the night and 3-2 on aggregate. The Barca vs PSG game is crazy, Barca down to 10 men with a slender 4-3 aggregate lead.

All to play for in both ties, this is what CL football is all about, pure drama.

[rahmad2nd]

Barcelona were a little confused after they took the lead in the 12th minute with Raphinha's goal, after which Paris Saint-Germain played much more pressing down the wing. Kounde was still playing very well by marking the Paris Saint-Germain players, until Araujo made a mistake which resulted in a red card. Losing one player, Luis Enrique's squad is getting deeper into Barcelona's defense. In the end, Lamine Yamal had to be withdrawn and replaced by Inigo Martinez so that Barcelona's defense remained stable. however, as a result, Paris Saint Germain had more control over the course of the match and Dembele managed to take advantage of the lack of discipline in Barcelona's defenders.

Well, I'm a little disappointed because Barcelona is having difficulty getting out of the chaos of Paris Saint-Germain's attacks. There was no choice, Xavi had to change his tactics a little and just rely on the counterattack they had. The fight is still long, this fight has not yet determined the winner. I hope that Barcelona will be able to survive and win the match again, even though it will be difficult to do so in conditions like these.
In another match, Dortmund won 2-0 over Atletico Madrid. ATM must score a goal for the match to go to extra time, or they must make a comeback to qualify for the next round. But I'm quite sure, ATM will score at least 1 goal in this match or could equalize. well, these two matches are still not over and the first half has just ended.

 Oh penalty changed to indirect kick and a red card issued to Ronald Araujo of Barcelona. Let's see how PSG will manage this match.

You don't expect PSG to visit Barcelona that win them in their home and just invade their home with goals like rain fall from sky. They are both prepared you know and because PSG is mistake is likely to cost them a lot, they played with ease strategic and they have finally equalized the leading goal on the second leg, it was the mistake PSG was trying to avoid Barcelona finally did with a red card.

I have not seen the usefulness of Mbape in this Quarter final to be honest, all hope lost on him. With such a half leg of Barcelona, I expect him to deliver atleast two goals from this situation of Barcelona playing against 11 men and proceed to semi final.

Araujo unprofessional tackle have caused Barcelona a pain on the ass, because they are now playing with one man down, which is now an advantage for their visitors PSG who have already equalized the goal scvores by Raphina on the 12th minutes. It is now a dangerous match for Barcelona, because their chances of surviving and winning this match in the second half is very slim.

PSG is not a weak team that will not be able to score more goals, but I doubt Barcelona if they will be able to play normal with ten men. On the other hand Dortmund is on lthe lead with 2-0, I never expected Atletico will not be able to score any goal till the first half will be over. This means that Dortmund have higher chances of qualifying to the semifinals.

 Oh penalty changed to indirect kick and a red card issued to Ronald Araujo of Barcelona. Let's see how PSG will manage this match.

With the way the match is going I doubt if it will end like their last meeting because I don't think Barcelona will be able to manage their player with short one, actually the red card is truly a setback to them because after the red card was issued to Ronald Araujo it was not long PSG use the opportunity to equalize the goal, Barcelona is lucky to have scored the first goal before the red card if not they would have been losing by a goal now.

Actually the problem they will have on this match is that is too early for the red card because even if they decided to go for a defensive method it will still be very difficult for them because they cannot hold PSG for long, is actually a petty for Barcelona that their plans for today match has taken another dimension, so perhaps if PSG is consistent enough this would have been a great opportunity for them to secure their ticket to the next round, so let's see if their would be changes among the two clubs on the second half.

[Arenga pinnata]

Dortmund in a really strong position at half time, leading 2-0 on the night and 3-2 on aggregate. The Barca vs PSG game is crazy, Barca down to 10 men with a slender 4-3 aggregate lead.

All to play for in both ties, this is what CL football is all about, pure drama.

Dortmund has indeed succeeded in turning things around. In the first leg Dortmund was behind by 1 goal and then now Dortmund reversed it and led by 1 goal. And made the aggregate 3-2 in favor of Dortmund. Yes, this is a drama that usually occurs in football. And now the second half will be even more exciting. Because Atletico Madrid definitely doesn't want their chances to be taken easily by Dortmund. Unfortunately I didn't pay attention to their match. But I have a feeling that Dortmund will probably maintain their lead.

Meanwhile, Barcelona will be very difficult now. Because after all, playing with 10 players is a weakness that is difficult to cover.

[DubemIfedigbo001]

But after Ronald Araujo received a red card in the 29th minute, PSG became more comfortable in attacking. but they haven't been able to make good use of it until now. And Xavi also seems to have made some changes and replaced Lamine Yamal with Iñigo Martínez Berridi who is a defender. So with this, Barcelona's defense remains strong.

Arajuo's exit really affected the team defensively, he was the main man back there, although he did what he had to to prevent that goal from the PSG striker, but that exit gave the paris players more confidence in penetrating the Barcelona defense which they exploited in no distant time.

Arajuo's exit left Dembele unmarked and he had the opportunity to score once and almost converted the second one just before halftime. Xavi should limit Dembele and Mbappe's from if he wants to remain in the contest.

Barcelona midfield stopped working from almost the start of the game with their defensive play. It further deteriorated with the exit of Arajuo. as the right winger was removed to accommodate a defender. Xavi needs to get very creative with his pattern this second half so he doesn't lose out of the competition.

[Google+]

The second leg match between Barcelona and PSG has ended with a score of 1-1, Barcelona was able to first make the PSG players depressed after Rapinha managed to score in the 12th minute and gave Barcelona the upper hand for a while, but it turned out that the red card obtained by Ronald Araujo in the 29th minute made the direction of the game begin to change and Barcelona had to work hard to stop PSG's attack which is superior in number of players at this time,  The goal from Dembele I think has left the whole stadium speechless and like in the first leg of course he had no qualms about celebrating today, after getting the red card of course it will be very difficult for Barcelona to keep their lead today and of course Enrique will try to take advantage of their players numerical advantage to eliminate Barcelona today.

For the Dortmund vs Atletico match, honestly I passed it today to see the Barcelona and PSG matches, but when looking at the highlights of the two teams' games, of course Dortmund seems to have greater hopes to qualify for the semifinals, especially now that they are temporarily ahead with a score of 2-0 over Atletico Madrid.

[Jatiluhung]

PSG managed to equalize the score at 1-1 thanks to a goal scored by Dembele in the 40th minute.

Barcelona really didn't have the option to play more aggressively. Even L. Yamal has also been replaced with one of the defenders to cover the gaps in their back line. And yes, Xavi has to play a defensive strategy for his team. But still, this will not be easy. But Barcelona could surprise us by making a counterattack and scoring another goal. Even though this seems impossible, actually anything is possible. Red cards are really a tough thing for Barcelona at the moment.
The second half had just started and PSG seemed to be putting more and more pressure on Barcelona's defense. I think now the situation has become less exciting. Because seeing a team having difficulty playing with only 10 players always makes me feel sorry for them.

[Adams0001]

L.Yamal seems to be increasingly becoming a mature young player. Now he has contributed 1 assist for 1 goal for Barcelona scored by Rapinha. With this goal, Barcelona has a 4-2 aggregate advantage.

The first half is almost over and maybe Barcelona will just try to maintain the current score with the remaining time in the first half. And will think about a better strategy in the second half.

With Araujo's red card, he will be difficult to replace if PSG does not advance for the semi-finals this time around, as PSG performed admirably in the first half and I feel they will score more goals in the second. They best defender Araujo will not even play the next match if they are lucky and qualify to the next round of the competition, let see what will happen in the second half who will get the chance and qualify, but psg are the favorites to go next round because they give Araujo a red card, their defense is open and pressuring Barcelona in the box, and Mbappe does not get enough space to shoot in the box is only Dembele that is getting many chances and shoots. with how dembele is performing in the pitch you will think he as Barcelona on is mind before the match start . Barcelona need to put more effort on the second half because if they try to defence the match he will be very hard for them to make it to next round of the competition I believe PSG will likely win the match they have more advantaged now to defeat Barcelona for the second half.
