UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[bitzizzix]

Hope punters and sports fanatics around the world weren't expecting big results from teams like Arsenal who have already qualified  and secured that top spot regardless of a win or lose and such games are all for formalitie sake and wouldn't waste time watching such matches...

On the other hand a game I would recommend watching today is Manchester United facing Bayern Munich or Galatasaray vs Copenhagen as these games haven't been decided on who qualifies or not besides Bayern... and with one spot to go for one of the biggest  football competitions we should expect some fireworks as the 3 teams fight for the last spot and am rooting for a winner to come from either Galatasaray or Copenhagen...

Yes, actually this match is just for fun or also just for formalitie as you said because Arsenal is guaranteed to qualify, if Arsenal really serious they could probably score a lot and this match would be very interesting. The squad Arsenal must prepare for another important match, and they must be in good condition but at least the match wasn't too boring quite exciting because both teams can scored.

Correct, Galatasaray Copenhagen Manchester United on the race to get the second ticket, and the Galatasaray vs Copenhagen match will be very hot. Both of team have been quite good in defensively so far, the first half ended without a score and now the second half is likely to be crazier, because victory must be achieved. By the way, when I write this post, Copenhagen can scored one and now they are leading.

In my opinion, in the PSV match against Arsenal there were no formalities or anything like that. Even if they win, draw or lose, they can still qualify for the next round, they have to keep playing professionally and show their best performance because the Champions League is a very prestigious competition and they have to keep playing well.

And currently the score between Manchester United vs Bayern Munich is 0-1 and Copenhagen vs Galatasaray 1-0, and if the score does not change until the end of the match then Bayern Munich and Copenhagen will advance to the next round. And Copenhagen is actually not the favorite team in Group A, but in the remaining group stage matches Copenhagen provided a surprise.

The scenario in this group is very difficult for the 3 teams that are still struggling, and the difficulty is greater for Manchestre United.

We are already entering the ending of the match against Manchester United vs. Bayern Munich, and Munich just scored a goal. Now Manchester United doesn’t have any hope left, all they need in the match is a win. Even if they struggle to equalise, it’s of no use. Before they won’t be eliminated, they need to score two goals in the match, and they have to defend Bayern Munich from scoring more goals, which won’t be possible. Bayern Munich will never allow Manchester United to win the match. The highest that can happen between them is for them to play a draw in the match, which is of no use to Manchester United.

[letteredhub]

The sixth matches of the group stages of the UEFA Champions League are played tonight. Galatasaray will face Copenhagen.

Copenhagen's starting XI against Galatasaray: Grabara, Diks, Vavro, Ankersen, Lerager, Claesson, Goncalves, Jelert, Achouri, Elyounoussi, Falk.

Galatasaray's starting XI against Copenhagen: Muslera, Boey, Davinson, Abdülkerim, Angelino, Torreira, Kaan Ayhan, Tete, Zaha, Kerem, Icardi.

I hope everything will be on Galatasaray's favor today. It's not impossible for Galatasaray to go through, but they really need to make a hard effort and beat Copenhag. On the other hand, Bayern will win the match easily against Manchester.

That's game between Galatasaray'and Copenhagen is a very daisy game that both team having same 5points in the group will be playing with so much carefulness to avoid making a costly mistake that will give an hedge to their opponent over them because the result of the game at the end of the full time will determine who will qualify along side Bayern Munich who are already with 13poimts  to round of 16.
About that of Manchester united vs Bayern, it's quite obvious that Bayern has nothing to lose in that game whatever the result would be at the end they have already qualified by current points, but based on the poor form and inconsistency of Manchester united team I don't think they will be capable to force Bayern to surrender that crucial 3poimts  to them at Old Trafford tonight. Am looking at that game ending draw.

Both teams Copenhagen and Galatasaray are trying hard to get in the better situation and use the chance they have in the Champions League because they know they have a golden chance because Galatasaray and Copenhagen and both in the same group with Manchester United while this team is not the good situation, otherwise they couldn't have any chance to be the second team of the group.

currently Copenhagen is now leading in their match against Galatasaray with the goal from lerager in the 58mins in the second half which indicates that Copenhagen are playing better than their visitors Galatasaray. And if the matches in their group ends in this current results then Copenhagen will be qualifying with Bayern to R16. The current results are:

 Copenhagen 1 v 0 Galatasaray.
Manchester united 0 v 0 Bayern Munich.

Assuming things turned favourable for Manchester united beaten Bayern Munich yet United won't qualify as Copenhagen will be topping them ahead with 1 point if they eventually win Galatasaray. Let just watch and see what the remaining minutes holds.

[red4slash]

I strongly believe that Arsenal has the potentials of not just qualifying from their group but also going very far in the knockout stages.

Arsenal have potentials only in this group because they face easy opponents. A draw will be the end results for this match. Arsenal are drawing points with PSV with 1-1 on the scoresheet at Philips stadion. Perhaps the home side keen standing firm on their ground, they will not allow the visitors to invade their territory to net another goal. We almost into injury time of the second halve and nothing yet to separate both sides from each other. I reasoned the game doesn't seem important for both sides since they've already earn the winning points to qualify for next round.

I don't think so because looking at anything Arsenal's potential can still be said to be good for this season and they qualify also not merely that this club is easy.
Indeed for Lens and Sevilla they actually did not have a good performance at the start of the season this time not only in the Champions League even in domestic competitions as well but I think Arsenal won indeed they deserved to win.
PSV on the other hand are very strong now and even if they lose this match they will still be able to qualify as runners up because they still have the advantage in goal productivity.
Now looking at the current conditions, it is only a matter of waiting for the end of Group A, Group F and Group H which still has some possibilities, the rest is not too influential because it is certain to qualify.

[BITCOIN4X]

Mancheter United's hopes of qualifying for the last 16 have disappeared. Coman scored a goal to give Bayern Munich's lead over Manchester United, while Copenhagen also took the lead against Galatasaray. Manchester United not only failed to qualify for the round of 16, but they also did not qualify for the Europa League considering that Galatasaray had more points. Ten Hag couldn't do much even though Manchester United played well in the first half, but Bayern Munich was much better in this match.

I think Copenhagen has been very unpredictable in the Champions League this season. No one expects them to make it to the round of 16, but I'll be watching the next few minutes to see if they can actually seal their ticket.

As at the 84th minutes, the status quo still remains. Manchester United on their way out while Galatasaray will be joining Europa league playoff. Both are losing one goal nil to their respective opponents. I had wanted to Galatasaray to win Kopenhavn to qualify for the next stage of the Champions league but it is obvious the home side is the better team. Manchester United actually performed below expectations in this season. They have to face the EPL now that their Champions league journey has come to an end.

With the current scoreline between Manchester United vs Bayern Munich and Copenhagen vs Galatasaray, Manchester United has been officially knocked out of the Uefa Champions League this season. Copenhagen will be the club to reach the last 16 of the Uefa Champions League with Bayern Munich.

[Captain Corporate]

I have to congratulate our Copenhagen friends, they did played a wonderful game, their defense was impeccable, one of the best I have seen, we have managed to score against both United and Bayern with this team, and yet failed to score a single game in this game, that shows how amazing Copenhag was on defense, and for good reason, they did put %100 of their play and deserved to go up, hell they even won when even a tie would be enough for them. For us there is nothing much to say, we are going to Europa and when this group phase started if people told me we would go to Europa I would say that makes sense, but I would have guessed Copenhag to be last and United to be second, I would say its a shame that we didn't get promoted to last 16, but its even a bigger shame that United, a team that spends hundreds of millions a year, failed to go to even Europa, that seems like a very unfortunate thing for them. The money part would have been awesome for us if we could have won, but its ok, I hope we can be consistent and go to group stages many years in a row, that is the real achievement, if we can do that even for just 5 years in a row, we would dominate our league completely, but we need to focus on the league now, winning the league means a chance to get another 20+ million UCL group stages entry prize, forget about the europa cup now, its all about getting the title again.

Glazers have spent more on players in recent seasons than every club in the PL except Chelsea. Man Utd fans love to blame the Glazers but the Glazers aren’t spending the money themselves, they’re not buying crap players for massive fees and coaching them.

Bayern have just gone 1-0 up, Man Utd are going out. Maguire and Shaw injured now too. Their next game…….Liverpool at Anfield **rubs hands together**

Wow *smiles*, so many bad news in a day for the Red Devils. What a day for them and the fans, After winning against Chelsea just a few days back to losing back to back matches to Bournemouth and Bayern Munich (if they lose today)

Harry Maguire who has been impressive lately has sustained an injury which is going to be a huge blow for them as there is no available substitute to replace him. I never expected Maguire to be an important player after being treated badly as an out cast.

I say this with so much joy as another lose awaits United, without Maguire and Luke Shaw there will be a huge void to be filled and I doubt if the coach can utilize other players in such a that there would be no problem. Liverpool are top of the league and have been having an impressive run of form so i guess they have another free point coming their way. I guess it’s too many bad news for Ten Hag as another defeat awaits him during the weekend.

[Leviathan.007]

Less than 24 hours before the game between Newcastle and AC Milan and Pioli started talking about this game, he said how important is this match for AC Milan to win the game against Newcastle in the Champions League tomorrow. He said this match is a like final game for them
Currently, AC Milan and Newcastle both got five points in the group F.

[Ndabagi01]

I think Copenhagen has been very unpredictable in the Champions League this season. No one expects them to make it to the round of 16, but I'll be watching the next few minutes to see if they can actually seal their ticket.

If you had been paying attention since the start of their match today, you would have noticed that they were playing a defensive game against Galatasaray. Galatasaray had possession and attacks but were unable to break through Copenhagen's defence and score a goal. Copenhagen had many attacks, but they were unable to use the majority of them due to the defensive game they were playing. Their goal came at an ideal time, but they still had to defend it until the end of the game. Galatasaray's manager employed an excellent strategy, which ultimately paid off in their favour.

Bayern Munich will never allow Manchester United to win the match. The highest that can happen between them is for them to play a draw in the match, which is of no use to Manchester United.

The match is over already, Bayern Munich defeated Man United with 1 goal. It means Man United failed to qualify for the next round in UCL, they also won't go to the plays-off round in Europa League because Man United only finished in the lowest place of group A. Since Bayern Munich played with their best lineup today, I think everyone not really surprising with the result. Man United simply has no chance to beat Bayern Munich because they have stronger players and more organized in playing. According to the stats, it is clear that Bayern Munich dominated the match, they are leading in shot attempts and ball possessions. It is a bit surprised that they play with full team, Bayern Munich didn't give the chance for the main players to take a rest in the final match of the group stage.

Anyway, Galatasaray failed to qualify for the next round, Copenhagen defeated them with 1 goal. So, Bayern Munich and Copenhagen are 2 teams that qualify for the knock-out phase from group A.

[CLS63]

Congrats to Copenhagen fans. They defended Galatasaray really big time tonight. They were the better playing side from the beginning to the end. I was never expecting to see Galatasaray performing this badly honestly. Therefore I must admit that I'm really surprised with this performance. They weren't like they were playing a very important match for themselves.

I really don't understand Turkish teams in critical moments. Galatasaray messed up here as well. If they showed some bigger character here I think that this was a match that they could have won. Thanks to Bayern Munich's winning against Manchester United Galatasaray are continuing with the Europa League at least.

[DubemIfedigbo001]

I'm not really surprised that Manchester united is losing to Bayern, judging from their shaking form, I expected more goal margin from Bayern, Manchester united secures the bottom position on the group successfully, lol.  Was thinking Bayern will not play so actively, judging from the fact that they've qualified for the next round already, but they're not settling for any less and Manchester united is on the receiving end of their harsh decision.

[Oluwa-btc]

That is our question why Munich is playing with their best squad even though this match doesn't mean anything for them and there will be a risk of injury.

Haha  
Did you expect Bayern Munich to leave them to just win the match like that?
I don’t think it will work because Bayern lost their last League match against Frankfurt so they will not like to lose two matches in a row that is why Tuchel is prepared for the match since they know that Manchester a United will find it hard to qualify even if big they win the match.

So far Bayern Munich has dominated the match and I agree with you, it looks like Munich will win today and Manchester United will not give up I mean they will score too So both teams to score is an interesting bet. In other matches, Galatasaray is still fighting but there have been no goals so far, it looks like this match will end in a draw.

Manchester United’s fans should lose hope because based on first half performance, Bayern Munich dominated the match which means that it will be hard for them to defeat Bayern Munich; therefore, Galatasaray and Copenhagen match will determine who is to qualify to the next of the come.

Congratulations to both Copenhagen and Bayern Munich. Much hopes I placed on Galatasaray but they couldn't scale through to the knockouts tonight. After the good performance against Manchester United to seal and salvage a point at home they shouldn't have slacked. Thomas Tuchel came back better after the loss again Frankfurt during the weekend games.

Copenhagen deserves to qualify,they gave Bayern Munich tough time during the both legs. Manchester United should try again next year, Ten Hag may have failed but he remains the right coach for Manchester United. I'm having that feels he'll lose against Liverpool over the weekend coming bit that don't mean he should be sacked.

Just because Erik Ten Hag used the same lineup against Chelsea in the EPL to win them doesn't mean they can win Bayern. However, it's the same here am not surprised at all. My anger is that Man United are not playing like they need the match. A game like this they cant even put up a fight at home. Sees like they don't even know what they are playing for. This group stage should be over son, so they can go and focus more in the EPL if by chance they could come out top 5 to compete for the next UCL. By then things may have change for good.

Manchester United have just disappointed their fans. They didn't play like a team that is fighting to qualify for the round of 16 or even the Europe league. Bayern Munich dominated the game and the Red Devils' attack was blunt which made them produce just one shot on target. Copenhagen and Galatasaray were seen as underdogs that would not give Manchester United any trouble in qualifying for the next round. In fact, the argument was about who between the two teams would move to the European League. Congratulations to these two teams and United should go back and focus in the English premier league.

I am also pleased that Napoli was able to qualify for the next round after beating Braga today. This will be a good motivation for a team that has suffered some disappointing performances recently. Real Madrid's performance in the group stage is 100%, after winning all their six matches and gathering 18 points.

[Stepstowealth]

The match is over already, Bayern Munich defeated Man United with 1 goal.

I did not expect a different winner from the game, I Knew Manchester United already lost the game, the only thing I was not sure of was by the number of goals that they would have lost by. Bayern surprised me that they scored just one goal in the game. Bad season for Manchester United, they failed their supporters who have waited for a long time to see them play in the Champions league. Their coach may likely not remain if he continues with these king of loosing results in the next couple of games by the club.

This doesn't surprise me one bit as well — coming into this match from the weekend, Man Utd were no where good enough to face this Bayern team (in contrast, Bayern lost 5-1 last week but still...). Expecting Copenhagen vs Galatasaray to end in a draw and win over Bayern was a real long shot and I didn't see it happening which was premise to pick Bayern over Man Utd in my parley. Imo, teams shouldn't be putting themselves in a tiny corner and hoping for the downfall of other teamsin order to qualify.

Man Utd just wasted that spot. It should've been Liverpool's.

Anyway, Galatasaray failed to qualify for the next round, Copenhagen defeated them with 1 goal. So, Bayern Munich and Copenhagen are 2 teams that qualify for the knock-out phase from group A.

Bayern closed their last match with a win and they progressed quite perfectly because they did not suffer defeat in the group phase. Now we see Bayern Munich qualify as group winners and Copenhagen managed to lock in a ticket to qualify for the next round. In Group A, the team that performed badly was Manchester United because they really failed and were not even able to qualify for the European League. Manchester united is really in a bad condition with this defeat and whether Erik Ten Hag will be sacked.

In group B, Sevilla failed in their last match because a goal from Lens in the 90+6 minute made Lens lock in this victory and Lens will join the European League. Arsenal and Psv advanced to the round of 16. In Group C, Real Madrid and Napoli have qualified for the round of 16 because these two teams won their last matches. Real Sociedad and Inter Milan qualified for the round of 16 after successfully performing well in group D.
