UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

What do you mean by that? What's annoying about the tactical approach of the game? Isn't defending part of the game now? I don't like the way too many people viewed that game.
I was amongst those that said, Real Madrid has been too defensive. But, after that game, I had a quick glance at what Sir Alex Ferguson said that, defending is also part of the game and that's what win you trophies.

I'm just quoting what many people thought about Ancelotti's style in that game. That was why I used quotation marks while writing "annoying".    It was a really defensive play but that was a smart choice. There wasn't any other way to beat this powerful Manchester City in the end. We all know that.

Before this match takes place, both teams will study the strengths of their opponents. Ancelotii is not stupid to implement a defensive strategy for no reason, as long as we know that Manchester City's attack line is good, and they also have good ball control. So Ancelotti will implement a strategy which will benefit them, and after considering everything, Ancelotti makes a decision to implement what kind of strategy, and that is his choice.

We all know that Real Madrid does not emphasize possession of the ball, they put more emphasis on fast counter-attacking play. If they had played with an open strategy, would they be in the semifinals now? Not just Real Madrid, even all teams will definitely adjust their strategy based on the opponent they will face.

Defense is part of strategy, and here actually whoever can implement a better strategy will be able to win, and Real Madrid proves that.

Anyways it seems like Bayern Munich are in big trouble with many injury news. I mean really important players Sane, Musiala, Coman seem like injured and they all are likely to miss the first leg if the team doctor can't do something to make them catch up with the game. If this happens then I won't be surprised to see Real Madrid winning this game and gaining a big advantage before the rematch at Santiago Bernabeu.

Hopefully there will be good news coming from the Bayern Munich players so they can play when they face Real Madrid in the first leg. Because I also want to see the game from both teams, where both teams can play at full strength without a single player being unable to play.
This is not just a match of losing and winning for me, but I want to see them play as well as possible with their best players playing in this big match.
Indeed, for a team, they will definitely want the team they will face to experience problems, such as injuries and so on. However, I am speaking here from the position that I am a football fan, so I want to see them play with their best squad. It will be very enjoyable to see a match where both teams can play at full strength.

Defensive game and sharp counter attack is the only way any club can use to win Manchester city. This is because they are good at passing and holding the ball for a long time than any club playing with them. They can easily break through your defense, and that was what happened last season when City won them 3-1 in the second leg at Etihad.

Real Madrid hardly plays defensive game, but if that is what they can use to win or get rid of their rival or any club to quify to the next round, then they should use that strategy. Real Madrid will not play a defensive game against their opponent in their next UCL match. Bayern Munich should be ready to face Real Madrid striking force and quality football.

I agree with you. Real Madrid's strength is that they have a very dangerous counter attack. That could be a threat to teams that have ball control tactics. I think Bayern Munich is a team that also plays with ball possession so this will be a very difficult match for them. I'm sure Real Madrid will be able to win the semifinals and will go to the final and will be champions. No one doubts their quality this season. And after City lost, I thought nothing could stop Real Madrid from getting the 15th Champions League trophy in the club's history.

This did not age well.  I am also pretty sure that there was no serious thinking involved in this prediction.  how did she think that Barcelona was actually going to go to the final of the Champions League competition?  this is just beyond me. 

but I guess this is just clowns being clowns. Just another way to entertain people and grab as much views as they can in that process. What they are going to predict about the semi-finals and the finals now?  I am actually disappointed if these are the people who are supposed to be "Pundits".  a lot of the time they even fail to be professional.  Remember Jamie spitting on rival fans from his car?  And Micah is literally going to do anything for money.

The competition will be between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich and in this competition, the two managers will make almost all the decisions for their teams off the field. However, although the two managers are quite experienced, considering Real Madrid's team, Ancelotti will have some chance to stay ahead of Bayern Munich with his team. The first leg match is important for both the teams so both the teams will definitely want to do well in the first match and take the pressure off in the second match. If the first leg is a draw between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, the second leg will undoubtedly be a tough match.

Maybe it is just me I don't know but I feel like Real has absolutely no chance of letting this Bayern team to beat them. I feel like Real will end up with a win and Bayern is already in trouble and Tuchel will be fired by the end of the season so it is not going to be all that hard for Real Madrid to win this one. Ancelotti knows what he is doing and he has all the plans in his mind and he knows how to pull the strings.

I think Real Madrid will end up with a great result eventually, we just need to make sure that we could see them doing well enough and it shouldn't really worry anyone. Bayern played terrible all season long and yes they are at semi finals so it looks like they are doing alright at the moment but the reality is that we are not going to see them win this game.

This is UEFA champion league competition, and anything can happen that will shock others fans, which people have experienced it from the quarter-final that made Arsenal to drop out from the race because people thought Arsenal can use premier league strategies to beat Bayern Munich but they failed.

We know that Real Madrid escaped from the hand of Manchester city in their quarter-final, that make Real Madrid to qualified for semi-final to face Bayern Munich, and I have that believe that Bayern Munich will beat Real Madrid to qualify for final.

I don't think Real Madrid will win this UEFA  champion league trophy in this season because the teams that remain in the tournament will not allow them to win in the semi-final, and still win in the final to lift the trophy.

It should be remembered that both teams have the same motivation in the two legs of the semifinals, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich both want to qualify for the final to get closer to the title. I admit that Real Madrid is the superior team in this game, they have everything to win a trophy in this competition. The quality of the players is very even, the game is very solid and the attacks are very fast.
Bayern Munich has certainly learned how to play Real Madrid. Tuchel, who failed to win the Bundesliga title, will motivate his players to reduce Real Madrid's game. Bayern Munich, which is very experienced in the Champions League and often faces other big teams, will be a threat to Real Madrid, especially since they have a striker like Harry Kane who is very sharp in breaking into the opponent's goal.

[slapper]

Seems there was a consensus by PSG and Borussia Dortmund to hide their playing skills this weekend, the reason PSG nearly lost to an unexpected team like Le Havre and Borussia Dortmund suffered the humiliating defeat from RB Leipzig. May pundits gave PSG express win over Le Havre and expected Borussia Dortmund to at least get a draw from Leipzig, maybe these predictions were made ignoring the fact that they will be reserving players. But I'm quite disappointed at PSG for being unable to win a match due to the absence of a single major player Kylan Mbappe. Well, those are the things that makes it gambling. I expect their champions league match to be a very tough one because they are both prepared from what I have seen so far.

PSG struggling without Mbappe is hard to imagine. This guy's a game-changer, and they looked vulnerable against Le Havre. It calls into doubt their long-term strategy, especially with him possibly leaving. Need to fill that gap, right?

Dortmund losing to Leipzig complicates everything. It's unclear what to expect in their Champions League matchup. Dortmund must bring something new Wednesday if Leipzig played them off the park. Watching this high-stakes situation will be stressful. What do you think of Dortmund's chances? The emphasis is on them to perform well to reach the final

If this happens then I won't be surprised to see Real Madrid winning this game and gaining a big advantage before the rematch at Santiago Bernabeu.

This is something that cannot be expected if there are several players injured by having to face important UCL matches, if so I think Bayern Munich still has several players who can replace them but here Tuchel must work hard on how to organize the game to be even more effective.

Yesterday's match Real Madrid rested all their main players to face this again, Real Madrid players will still return to fitness but I feel it will not be easy after all Bayern Munich is still a strong opponent to beat.

Well, it is definitely not just you. It is almost everyone. Almost everyone thinks that Real Madrid is going to win against Bayern Munich and Bayern Munich is probably not going to do much about it. Of course, Harry Kane is going to be a problem for Real Madrid. But I think Real Madrid will be able to handle him. Why I am a little scared for Real Madrid is because even though Real Madrid has been able to handle Haaland, they have not handled someone like Harry Kane who has been really prolific in this whole season. But at the same time, I think we could say that Haaland has played in the English Premier League in which almost all the teams are pretty good. But at the same time, Harry Kane has played in the Bundesliga where the teams are not probably as good. I think that's why Real Madrid will be able to win.

Both sides have outstanding players that are eager to deliver superb performance, it's been really a rough day for both managers but they've held on till this very moment. Bayern Munich will fight but I don't think they're capable of handling a top team like Real Madrid. When it comes to UEFA Champions League football, don't presume any odds because there's certain thing called Levels in football. Real Madrid come first on the table and they've been the very best team no oppositions would pray not to faced at crucial phase.

Both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have strong experienced squads, there is a gap for the two managers. Ancelotti is the most successful active manager in the Champions League right now, and Tuchel may have won two Champions League trophies, but his Champions League records are not comparable to Ancelotti. This factor gives an edge for Real Madrid, aside the performance throughout this season.

Ancelotti has a deeper understanding of what it takes to win on the biggest stage. He can adapt his strategies based on the opponent and navigate the emotional intensity of important games in Champions League stage. Tuchel is a tactically smart manager known for his ability to adjust his approach based on the strengths of their opponents, he shouldn't be underestimated. The tie will probably be a close battle decided by players' brilliance, and a bit of luck.

The competition will be between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich and in this competition, the two managers will make almost all the decisions for their teams off the field. However, although the two managers are quite experienced, considering Real Madrid's team, Ancelotti will have some chance to stay ahead of Bayern Munich with his team. The first leg match is important for both the teams so both the teams will definitely want to do well in the first match and take the pressure off in the second match. If the first leg is a draw between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, the second leg will undoubtedly be a tough match.

The first leg will be a very important match for Bayern Munich which will take place at the Allianz Arena. If Bayern is not able to beat Real Madrid in the first leg then it is certain that Madrid will have a greater chance of beating Bayern in the second leg which will take place at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium so I I think Bayern will give their all in the first leg to beat Madrid but Madrid will try to maintain a draw so that Madrid can take advantage of the opportunity in the second leg to take it to the UCL final.

The two UCL matches in the first leg were held in Germany. Dortmund also faced PSG at Signal Iduna Park and this was an opportunity for Dortmund to create an aggregate of at least 2 goals so that in the second leg Dortmund played not under pressure, usually Dortmund has the opportunity to turn things around in the second leg but in this semifinal Dortmund had to play the first leg earlier at home so in the second leg Dortmund did not have a bigger chance than PSG.

I don't think Real Madrid will win this UEFA  champion league trophy in this season because the teams that remain in the tournament will not allow them to win in the semi-final, and still win in the final to lift the trophy.

There was nothing shocking about the quarterfinals at all. Even if we assume that the chances of Arsenal against Bayern are 60% to 40% and the chances of City against Real Madrid are the same (this is a very significant advantage - one and a half times), then in 40% of cases the nominal outsider will win against the nominal favorite.
And I’m not at all sure that Arsenal’s advantage was that great, more like 55% to 45%, and in the case of Real and City, I’m not sure that City was the favorite (I used to think that City was, but based on the results, I changed my mind).

[GiftedMAN]

Real Madrid hardly plays defensive game, but if that is what they can use to win or get rid of their rival or any club to quify to the next round, then they should use that strategy. Real Madrid will not play a defensive game against their opponent in their next UCL match. Bayern Munich should be ready to face Real Madrid striking force and quality football.

I agree with you. Real Madrid's strength is that they have a very dangerous counter attack. That could be a threat to teams that have ball control tactics. I think Bayern Munich is a team that also plays with ball possession so this will be a very difficult match for them. I'm sure Real Madrid will be able to win the semifinals and will go to the final and will be champions. No one doubts their quality this season. And after City lost, I thought nothing could stop Real Madrid from getting the 15th Champions League trophy in the club's history.

You are right, Real Madrid attacking force is very strong and they hardly play defensive football but they make use of the attacking force more when they are winning in ball possession, take an example in the match against Manchester City in the second leg of the quarter finals, Real Madrid or rushed back to defend when a city was controlling the ball and winning the possession against them they had no option than to fall back to defend because City was all over them. Playing against a team like Bayern Munich that has a very sharp striker in the likes of Harry Kane Real Madrid will do a good work to ensure they win the midfield so that they can have more of the ball control and possession that's the only way they can possibly launch counter attacks against Bayern Munich otherwise the reverse may be the case because we saw the performance of Bayern Munich against Arsenal, they can stop Real Madrid if they utilize their chances because Real Madrid may counter attack them while they do the same because both teams are in good shape now.

Real Madrid is a team that is far more favored than other teams in the semifinals to qualify for this season's Champions League final. Bayern Munich and its coach certainly have experience in the Champions League, both of them have even won the title in previous seasons, but this season Real Madrid is clearly the favorite.

Real Madrid's advantage in the semifinals is that they play at home in the second leg. Real Madrid will try to win the first leg at the Allianz Arena, but a draw is also a little safer. I believe Real Madrid can play better in home games, even if they lose the first leg then Real Madrid can be expected to recover in the second leg at home.

I do not totally agree with this your view about Madrid winning and going through to the final game and taking the trophy home, when we have teams like PSG and Bayern Munich still present in the competition to face, to me still a difficult thing to predict, Bayern Munich isn't a small team to mention when it comes to the Champions League game, and yes Real Madrid got the qualities of players in there and capacity to progress, But I doubt if you would bet your money on this game for Real Madrid side. Until both teams meet, I still think this is an open opportunity for all the teams that have made it to this stage.

I agree with you. It should not be so certain that Real Madrid will win the Champions League title right now. There is no doubt that Real Madrid are a strong and experienced team. Madrid are more likely to win the title. But there is no way to underestimate teams like PSG and Bayern Munich. These two groups are quite strong.

We don't always see the favorite team winning the Champions League. Often we see underdog teams win the match and surprise everyone. None of us thought the Dortmund team would qualify for the semi-finals. However, the team performed brilliantly and managed to qualify for the semi-finals.
Even a few seasons ago we saw Chelsea win the Champions League title with a mediocre squad. So it should not be said that PSG and Munich have no chance of winning the title

Well, maybe what you say can come true. I mean, Real Madrid qualified in the semifinal match against Bayern Munich. After all, it is likely that Real Madrid is more favored than Bayern Munich if we refer to their performance this season. However, that doesn't mean Madrid can overthrow the Bundesliga giants easily.  We know Thomas Tuchel, it seems that in this semifinal match his tactics and strategy will change. I mean, Bayern will not play with a full aggressive attacking appearance. It could be that Tuchel let Madrid have more control of the ball and they looked for opportunities to make a quick counterattack and score a goal. Well, this strategy is also Ancelotti's style and so is Tuchel's. But to be sure, we have to wait until this match is held.

I have other assumptions and speculations for the match between these two teams, and in the first leg Madrid needs to be careful. because after all, Bayern Munich has the opportunity to play at the Allianz Arena, the home of The Bavarians. Full support from supporters in the first leg will help the enthusiasm and motivation of the Bayern Munich squad when they host Real Madrid. The point is that Madrid is not the only one who has the chance to qualify, because after all Bayern is a strong team and has the chance to overthrow the Spanish League giants. In particular, if we refer to the odds for the two teams, even though they are still temporary, they both have odds that are not much different.

With Real Madrid's current position as the biggest favorites, it would be legitimate to say that they will be able to win the title this season, because in fact the bookmakers are giving them very big odds. However, I also agree with you that Bayern Mnuich cannot be underestimated, they are also very experienced in the Champions League, even though their success is not the same as the success recorded by Real Madrid, they are still a team that will be very troublesome for Real Madrid. .
The Champions League is a place full of surprises, here anything that is considered impossible can happen. And we don't know what Real Madrid will experience this season, it could be that they are not lucky enough to win their 15th title in the Champions League.
Likewise, Paris Saint Germain, they can also make a surprise, and it is possible that they will record their gold ink this season by becoming champions.

[baeva]

For the past two years they have been poor,as they almost bottled the Bundesliga League Competition last season, thanks to Borrussia Dortmund who couldn't make good use of what opportunity they had.

Thomas Tuchel just fumbled it again this season. Injuries and his strategies caused all of it though, I won't put all of the blame on him but he had a hand in this matters.
Carlo Ancellotti has a good record in the Champions League Competition against Bayern Munich and we'll see what can be done. Can remember Thomas Tuchel winning Real Madrid with Chelsea.

Mine, is not just about Bayern Munich, they all have won stuff's in a way, it's all about Harry Kane. Lad deserves silverwares to beautify his career profile.

Their poor performance this season of course made them never again seeded in the Champions League, last season's change of coach made many changes to the Bayern Munich squad on the negative side, but after many slumps I think we cannot relate this to the injuries that befell Bayern Munich because indeed at that time only two Bayern players were injured namely Coman and Gnabri and even then they had managed to anticipate with The arrival of Bryan Zaragoza, but from the slump that befell Bayern Munich in domestic competitions, of course fans should be grateful because currently Bayern Munich can still compete in the Champions League.

Against Madrid in the semi-finals of course makes Bayern Munich's journey will be quite difficult, because at the moment Madrid are the strongest team competing in the Champions League, but I think Tuchel still has a great chance to win the Champions League this season regardless of their status as underdogs this season, I think in this match will be a match that relies on intelligence in the application of the game strategy of both coaches,  Facing Madrid, of course, Bayern Munich need all their players in top condition and of course Kane will be the hope and differentiator for Munich later in breaking down Madrid's defense.

I think the final will also be difficult, whoever is there, because it will be very important to psychologically adjust. In fact, I think the winner of the Champions League this season will be whoever wins the semi-finals, following the example of Bayern and Real Madrid. On the other side of the line, although they are strong teams, it is obvious that they will not be able to compete with either RM or Bayern.
