UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[tusandii]

There is no doubt that Manchester City's performance was good enough in this match. City players tried to dominate the home match. But Manchester City was defeated by Madrid's experienced match tactics.

Haaland is still too gentle in important matches like this. He had almost no threat from the first leg to this second leg. If it weren't for Kevin De Bruyne, Mancity probably would have lost in the main round.

Mancity repeated Barca's mistake when playing at home but could not take advantage of this great advantage. When the match went to penalty shootouts, it was clear that the pressure on Mancity was much greater than on Real Madrid. They put an end to themselves when they missed two penalties. It's a pity that both PRemier League representatives had to stop in the quarterfinals.

Erling Haaland is not really a threat to Real Madrid even though the player seems to be favored by Man City, it is actually KDB who is a big threat to Real Madrid players. He is actually the best attacking midfielder that Man City has and he could be the player they want to play. needed if the club felt difficult, he also tried to become man of the match because he was able to equalize in the 76th minute after Madrid took the lead in the first half.

But Barca made a mistake and got a red card, making PSG feel at an advantage in the second leg, while Man City faced a different situation, their opponent is the most difficult club in the UCL and is not affected whether they play away or at home, so Man City is not the only threat for Madrid to continue. advanced to the semifinals, now there are no more EPL clubs competing in the UCL because they have been eliminated in the quarter-finals.

-Snip-

To be frank I don't believe Haaland has lost his form since his return from injury because He has not really been performing well even before his latest injury especially big teams. Though your reason is something I can agree with that these teams usually are able to locked him but I think there are two things left which is either Pep change his formation to make a support for him in order for him not to be the only player in the forefront like you said or it's up to Haaland to improve his skills and overcome this hurdle, which I think will be better for a player of his profile.

Yesterday I lost a bet, but it was to my friend  

I had a lot of confidence that Manchester City would manage to qualify, with difficulty of course, but I was wrong
Real have shown once again that they are the greatest team in the Champions League and that tradition plays a big part in deciding matches, it's hard to explain and perhaps it doesn't even have a logical explanation, but in deciding matches the team achieves unbelievable results

This was something I was expecting though I never thought the winner will be determined by a penalty shoot out though when the penalty shoot out started I had almost full feelings that Real Madrid will win since they were used to such situation, having experienced than any other team to me though I might be wrong.

The next Real Madrid vs Bayer Munich match is going to be very interesting
Will Real be able to nullify Harry Kane like they did Haaland?

Harry Kane is totally a different player than Haaland and I don't think that there is any actual 9 is better than him now. While this game in general is a game I can't predict though Real Madrid as mainly been the better team against Bayern Munich in the champions league but I think Bayern still have a chance to win even if they are having one of their worst season in over a decade now. This is their only chance of getting a trophy this season.

I think we might be getting another Psg vs Bayern Munich final which will be more intense than seeing Real Madrid VS psg in the final.

[tsaroz]

My predictions went horribly wrong for the quaterfinals for the champions league. After the 1st leg, I had predicted Barcelona to win over PSG on homeground and I was wrong. I predicted the same for Manchester City and I was wrong again. I got right on Dortmund and Bayern but that don't matter much.
Now there two all time highest semi final participants team in this season semi finals too. Real Madrid and Bayern Munich and I believe we'll see them fight for the finals and Dortmund and PSG both are not in their best and are on semis winning poorer teams.

It was a bad night for Barcelona, as they took the lead of 4-2 in goal aggregate, but unfortunately for them a red card weaken the team and the whole game turned back to hunt them. I will say why the defense was porous was because the vacuum Araujo left was not filled. He is a defender and made the worst decision that cost them their exit out of the champions league, because they were playing with a big team.

Red card becomes a big problem for Barcelona (in fact, for any club, of course). Araujo was not careful in bringing down his opponent, so he received the red card after VAR analysis. And this really made the situation completely reversed for PSG to be able to attack Barcelona more easily. In fact, Barcelona was already in the lead from a goal by Rapinha in the 12th minute. This really was quite a bad dream for Barcelona, because after winning at home to PSG, it turned out that it could be turned around very hard. Say bye to Barcelona, the important thing is that PSG really has the chance to enter the final if they can win against Dortmund. And it seems like it would be very possible to do that

I watched the match and it was noticeable that the red card greatly affected Barcelona's efficiency, despite its brilliant performance with only ten players. It was clear that Barcelona became disorganized after Araujo left due to exclusion.
This was a dream come true for Paris Saint-Germain to achieve excellence and qualify for the next league. The goal difference was not very wide, however, and all analysts in sports publications, in addition to club experts, confirmed that PSG would have been far from winning this victory had it not been for the fatal foul that caused Araujo's elimination. The same analysts confirmed that Barcelona's chances of winning would not have been diminished by the exclusion of one player, regardless of his position or performance, if the opposing team had not been PSG.

I read the interview of Gundogan and he criticized three biggest mistakes in the match that caused the painful loss for Barcelona. I really agree with his thinking like in the first conceded goal, Araujo actually can do it better. He can simply let that situation goes on and accept risk that PSG will score a goal from it. If more luckily, Barcelona goalkeeper can save it and no conceded goal at all.

By making a foul like this, he gave PSG a penalty and risk to get a conceded goal is higher and another big advantage is a red card when the match still has many time ahead. This situation and that bad decision from Araujo actually cost too much for Barcelona. A red card destroy the tactical operation of Barcelona and gave PSG very good advantage to control the match even they played home away.

As Real Madrid is a very good team and Man City is also a good team, it was a very tough game in this match, but in this match Man City won the match but lost it after protecting themselves for a few steps. However, PSG's match with Barcelona was a boring game. It was not expected that Barcelona would play so badly against PSG. Like you, I predicted that Barcelona would win that match, and I was wrong. But I was confused about today's match against Man City and Real Madrid. Here Real Madrid won the match

And in the match between Bayern Munich and Arsenal. In this match, Arsenal had to accept a narrow defeat from Bayern Munich. Actually, Arsenal played quite solidly in this match. However, in the second half, Arsenal conceded through Kimmich's header in the 63rd minute. And until the referee blew the whistle to signal the end of the second half, Arsenal were unable to equalize. So with this defeat against Bayern Munich, Arsenal had to be eliminated from the UCL with a 3-2 aggregate.

Well deserved win for bayern. The club does it better than arsenal and they deserve it. Arsenal was never winning europa league and how can this garbage team win UCL? The better for Arsenal to win PL trophy first. Arsenal is still an ordinary team. NO UCL DNA like other big clubs. It's still full with so many inconsistent little brats.

Yes, you are right friend. Bayern Munich deserved this win.
Apart from that, if you look at the reality, it is true that Arsenal have never won a title in the UCL competition so far. Even though Arsenal can actually be said to be a fairly strong team in Europe, the reality is that until now Arsenal has always failed in UCL competitions. Perhaps the best opportunity that Arsenal could achieve while participating in the UCL competition was when Arsenal managed to enter the final round at the UCL in 2006. However, unfortunately in the final round Arsenal had to lose to Barcelona and only became runners up at that time. And as far as I know, after that Arsenal never entered the final in the UCL again. Therefore, Arsenal deserves to be said to be a strong club from Europe that has never tasted the UCL trophy. So it's true, maybe Arsenal would be better off chasing the Premier League trophy first. The reason is, Arsenal haven't achieved it for a long time. The reason is, the last time Arsenal won the Premier League trophy was in the 2015-2016 season. Then after that Arsenal never won the Premier League again.

And when compared with Bayern Munich, as far as I know Bayern Munich has won the UCL 6 times. So if Bayern Munich's achievements are compared with Arsenal's achievements on the European stage, then Bayern Munich is clearly superior. But even so, Arsenal's struggle also deserves our appreciation. Because reaching the top 8 positions in UCl is certainly not an easy thing. For this reason, we must continue to appreciate Arsenal's struggle to reach this point in the UCL. And in the next UCL, hopefully Arsenal can provide even more optimal results. And I also congratulate Bayern Munich for successfully qualifying for the UCL semifinals.

[jaberwock]

Despite Bayern Munich lackluster performance in the Bundesliga League this season, they still managed to send Arsenal crashing out from the Uefa Champions League. It was quite a pity to see Arsenal failing to reach the semi finals of Uefa Champions League this season as I felt the current squad of young players playing in Arsenal does have a lot of potential to create some great result with their efforts. Hopefully Arsenal will be able to reach greater heights in the Uefa Champions League next season.

That is the one thing that Tuchel has that he could go for. At this point if he somehow manages to beat Real and whoever else they are going to face, I think that is going to be the biggest deal of their season, winning UCL would make him look very good.

We all know that he wasn't good at all, but somehow he managed to come to semi-finals of UCL one way again, and I believe that Tuchel should be fired after having such a horrible season at Bayern, but even if he wins UCL, it will not make him look good but he could totally go for his next job saying he has won another UCL as well. I do believe that Real Madrid looks much better though, it could mean that they could just lose next game up, and we just need to make sure all looks decent.

Araujo made a big mistake by committing the foul, if we watch the game of course Araujo can actually still stop Bradley Barcola by continuing to shadow him, at that time the foul occurred outside the penalty area although Araujo was the last player to face Bradley Barcola but he should not have committed the foul because I saw several other Barcelona players had run towards the front of the goal So it seems difficult to say if Araujo did not foul then 100% of the chances became goals, after the red card, Barcelona began to lose their way in play and even they seemed to start preferring to defend by sending off Lamine Yamal in the 34th minute.

In my opinion, PSG did not perform well in that match and even when Barcelona played with a full squad of course we could see how PSG was very troubled by the attack carried out by Barcelona, but indeed the red card made Barcelona helpless and had to surrender from PSG in the match, I am quite sure if Barcelona did not get a red card in that match of course we would see a match dominated by Barcelona And maybe we will see Barcelona who will be Dortmund's opponents in the semi-finals instead of PSG.

Still, Barcelona were very hurt by the red card... I think that if it wasn't for that, they could have won... I would also like to point out that Xavi also did badly that he couldn't contain his emotions and got a red card too... When your team is in trouble, you should not do stupid things... PSG was lucky in this game... This is football and sometimes it happens...

Real Madrid has a good defense and at the same time, even though Manchester City dominated the match, but in reality Manchester City was weak in attack. Therefore, Manchester City was only able to score an equalizer through a goal scored by De Bruyne. I watched the match in extra time and there Manchester City still dominated with high ball possession. But again and again, Real Madrid's defense line was so disciplined that Manchester City's attack really did not pose a significant threat to Real Madrid's defense line . But yes, it looks like Manchester City and Real Madrid have an attempt to determine victory in the penalty shootout. But yes, even though Manchester City was playing at home, but the Manchester City penalty taker was really nervous about executing the penalty kick until in the end they missed.

Being able to reach the UCL semi-finals is a great achievement for Tuchel when he is having a poor season in the league. I think Tuchel will try hard and focus only on the Champions League. They will face Real Madrid, the strongest team in the UCL this season. This is my personal opinion, after they managed to get rid of Manchester City, Real Madrid was automatically on the first list of my favorite teams to win the UCL this season. If Munich can beat Real Madrid, then they have a big chance of winning the UCL. I'm not saying PSG or Dortmund are weak teams but I think Madrid is the biggest challenge for all the teams in the semifinals. Honestly I think Munich will lose in the semifinals because they face Madrid. It will be very difficult to stop Madrid's dominance in the UCL this season.

For Ancelotti, knocking Guardiola's teams out of the Champions League playoffs is routine (he's done it for the third time - more than anyone else), so he quietly enjoys the taste of his coffee while the team follows his instructions.
Last year City were able to take advantage of the fact that Real Madrid did not have a striker, but this year everything fell into place.

[AYOBA]

Real were able to score an early goal and they put a lot of emphasis on defensive play and it worked for them. Both teams played very well, a match worthy of a final. I think it will not be an exaggeration if I say that Real Madrid is now strong enough to win the Champions League. And I would like to see Real and PSG in the final, and who knows, maybe Enrique can become the first coach to win the Champions League with PSG for the first time in history. ) But it looks like I'm getting too far ahead of myself...

Madrid where able to score first and that first game they were able to defend it for some time, and the way they were defending that one goal I was surprised, I was already expecting Manchester city to drop Real Madrid and after everything that played out we were disqualified by Madrid, the both of them actually tried but the truth is at the end of the day we still need a winner. And Madrid won. And now that Manchester city is out Madrid have a better chance to win. PSG should not be counted among those that can win the champions league even if that is mbappe dream. I was certain of that of arsenal but that of Manchester City I was surprised did not actually see this coming.

In a few weeks we should have known who is going to win the champions league it as been one hell of a league you cannot even predict what will happen.

Yesterday match between real Madrid and Manchester city was very surprised game because nobody expect that real Madrid can be the winner of the of the yesterday, due to how they start the match with very strong performance we all understand that real Madrid have a early goal which is in 12 minutes time of the first half.

But with that Manchester city gives real Madrid so much pressure, even if we look at their possession Manchester city dominate the possession of just that real have a lock goal if not they couldn't win the that yesterday match. Although that real Madrid have a big chance to win the champion league, but with that they need to improve their performance if really want to defeat the remaining opponents.

In the history of the Champions League Competition and European Competitions they're nobody even compared to the likes of Aston Villa, West Ham United and those underdogs that has won one or two European trophy.
In the Champions League Competition? I don't feel pity for them because I know they don't have the character to win it, they might go so far but you don't have to argue with them, you just have to wait and watch them fall off completely.

I feel sad for them in the Premier League Competition, I hope to still see them win it.... I don't think it's completely over for them this season, they can still go on to win the Premier League. At least they have some levels of depth than what they had last season.

For Bayern Munich, they're a tough side. Gunner's are no match to them on a normal day. One more thing is that this gunner's brag too much. When they have nothing to really account for that they're top Europeans in the Champions League Competition.

[Pulsar77]

What is Araujo still talking about by the way?    He is still trying to defend himself about what he did there in the PSG match. It looks like he is offended by İlkay Gündoğan's words about that red card as well.

Why would you be offended while you are 100% at fault? He is the main reason why Barcelona lost a huge chance to qualify for the semi finals. Just let him through there... Even if PSG scored there it would still be better than going down by one player. In the end Barcelona were already 1-0 ahead before that red card which meant a 4-2 advantage on aggregate. What a waste really!  

[Woodie]

Just looked at the stats of the Man City vs Real Madrid , like how do you explain City not going through honestly... they had the most possession and from the 30 shots at goal and 10 on target they only had one goal to show for , and match being played at the Etihad I really expected more from these guys..but hey this is what football is about, a few disappointments here and there despite playing so well..guess they now get to concentrate on the EPL with close rivals Arsenal...

Lol love the humour...

Is it safe to say that the most decorated team in Champions league football can do this again, because surviving beating City is as good as a final and Bayern won't be much of a problem from how things are going...

If it was Ina normal league, perhaps we could say that Barcelona would have manage to hold that pressure coming from PSG but this is Champions League we are talking about and not just ordinary game, it's a quarterfinals on second leg, there is no way Barcelona would have absorbed that pressure despite playing defensive style through out the match, though Xavi wasn't happy with the Referee decision, he felt cheated but I think that's what all coaches do when they fail to win.

Right now, we have 4 teams from different leagues and not a singl team from Premier League, and yet Premier League fans always feel like they are the best and other teams are from farmers league but look at them, not even Manchester City was able to tight down Real Madrid in the penalty shout out, they had all the confidence to beat Real Madrid but the penalty humble everyone as no one can be perfect when it comes to penalty.

Despite the outcome of this game, I was impressed with Arsenal’s performance because they did well in the first leg to hold the match to a draw and only conceded one goal in the second leg of the match. Their last encounter in the champions league was a very horrible one for them, at least with this performance, they can get over that and believe that they’ve improved as a team than before even though none of this players were present then. If not 90%, I think all of the Arsenal current players are having their first experience in the champions league, so I think they will do better when they come back again by next season. They have built a great squad to reckon, so they’ll do better by next season with this squad.

Prediçted Final : Real Madrid vs PSG

I think that almost everyone thought about such a final when they saw what the semi-finals would be like, since the final where Mbappe plays against his future team is a good intrigue and ending for the endless series called “Mbappe leaves/stays in PSG”.
But there is another interesting option: a repeat of the 2013 final Borussia - Bayern, which by the way took place at Wembley.
