UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[MinoRaiola]

As previously thought, Inter would take advantage of the home match to win in the first leg. Marko Arnautovic goal gave Inter Milan a 1-0 victory over Atletico Madrid, this result is certainly an important asset for Inter heading into the quarter-finals. Atletico were not able to do much in this match, Inter managed to lock them up with a very brilliant game. Inter's appearance this season is more competitive after reaching the Champions League Final last season. A performance like this is an important asset for Inter to win the UCL title, it is very realistic to be able to reach the final round again if they are able to maintain their performance.

A win is of course a strong position for the second game on March 13 in Madrid. It is a close result, so one goal from madrid and it is all ok again, so I expect Inter Milan to be very defensive and if Atletico risk more, Inter Milan will take the chance and get the ticket to the next round. I see them as one of the favorites to win the CL this year, they are not the best, but one of the best 3 teams in my opinion. Arnautovic scored such an important goal at the age of 34, and if you think about his stats, he has only played 8 games in the Champions league so far and scored 3 goals.

PSV gets the chance for the final kick.
The result for this moment is 1 : 1
And in the end PSV was able to match Dortmund's game. It's quite unfortunate here, once again Dortmund made mistakes that weren't really necessary. Meanwhile, for now, it is quite difficult for them to attack PSV to their crucial line. And now, conditions are getting even more difficult when the match is a draw. The results will be even more worrying because PSV sometimes gives unpleasant surprises to their opposing clubs.

The match between PSV and Dortmund was extremely difficult tonight since I wasn't expecting Dortmund to get the first goal, but they made a valiant attempt and dominated the first goal in the opening half. Because I know Dortmund isn't very strong, I was hoping PSV will win the match, but I'm not sure if it would end in a draw. PSV was also fortunate in that they attempted to improve their performance in the second half; otherwise, they would not have been able to level. Honestly, Dortmund played the match with a really serene mind; they truly wanted to win against PSV. They attempted to take advantage of PSV's poor performance in first half, that they would be easily defeated, but it was not occur. PSV prevented them from winning the match that's why they put much effort and make the match ended in draw.

Dortmund almost became German champions last year and only some sort of curse prevented them from beating Bayern. So Dortmund is a very strong team that can play on equal footing with the strongest groups, which is proved by the fact that from the group with PSG, Newcastle and Milan they went to 1/8 Champions League.

They should have won the match with PSV, but the referee awarded an extremely controversial penalty, which should not have been awarded, because the Dortmund player played into the ball, not into the feet of the PSV player and because of the referee's mistake Dortmund lost 3 points.

Atletico Madrid's performance against Inter Milan was not that good yesterday. Atletico Madrid managed to have seven attempts with no shot on target, which even made Inter Milan's goalkeeper more relaxed. If Inter Milan can stop Atletico Madrid from scoring in their return match, I think Inter Milan will qualify for the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League.

Now you can think like that, but Atletico Madrid themselves will also make a little evaluation of themselves before they play the second leg match with Inter Milan. Because Atletico Madrid also won't want to be complacent about the defeat they experienced in the first leg yesterday, so the second leg could quite possibly be a very fierce match for them in order to qualify for the next round even though Inter Milan themselves already have a little capital which they got yesterday in first leg.

Did you believe Atletico Madrid would defeat Inter Milan even in the second leg of the match? That won't happen, and even if it does, it won't be in an easier way. Given how the match played yesterday and how Inter Milan has performed this season, it will be extremely difficult for Atletico Madrid to defeat Inter Milan. The match was very tough, as I expected, and both teams are very good goal scorers, but Inter Milan is more astute than Atletico Madrid in this regard. You can tell from the game that Inter takes the game very seriously and creates plenty of scoring opportunities.

I am aware that Atletico Madrid's second leg match will take place at home, which will give the team confidence that they can win. Home games typically benefit the team playing at home, but sometimes a poor performance hurts a team playing at home. The second leg of the match will be challenging, but regardless of the outcome, it will be extremely difficult for Atletico Madrid to win, even if they do manage to score even one goal.

Actually the performance of Atletico Madrid last night was terrible, I think this was their worst performance I have seen them in throughout this year champions league, just look at the stat, Atletico Madrid had no shot on target, but I still feels like due to the fact that inter Milan fail to kill this game off, Atletico Madrid can still come back into the game in the reverse fixtures of this contest.

Though this contest is still very open, it just one nil, so their is a high possibility that Atletico Madrid can turn this tie around in their home turf, but if inter Milan can put in the same performance as yesterday, I didn't think they can be defeated by Atletico Madrid.

Dortmund almost became German champions last year and only some sort of curse prevented them from beating Bayern. So Dortmund is a very strong team that can play on equal footing with the strongest groups, which is proved by the fact that from the group with PSG, Newcastle and Milan they went to 1/8 Champions League.

They should have won the match with PSV, but the referee awarded an extremely controversial penalty, which should not have been awarded, because the Dortmund player played into the ball, not into the feet of the PSV player and because of the referee's mistake Dortmund lost 3 points.

It’s good that this is only the first match and this penalty was not decisive. I think that a draw in an away match is not the worst result, of course they would like to win away, but after this match PSV is in a more difficult situation, since the match in Germany will definitely be more difficult for them. This is not the first time that a referee's error has affected the final result. In the second match, Inter managed to beat Atletico, I didn’t expect that they could win, I expected that the match would end in a draw. Now Atletico will have to correct the situation in Madrid...

[Kliss]

Inter Milan Vs Atletico Madrid yesterday was an interesting game from both sides. Another good performance from Inter at the san siro what they did yesterday especially to a very good Atletico Madrid side was very interesting. Inter Milan would have scored more than just one goal but in football that is part of the game it's a very big advantage to them  especially on round of sixteen stage getting a win at home it is very crucial, Inter Milan win have given them chances of progressing to the quarter finals if they can put up a performance like they did last night at Atletico Madrid's home. Atletico Madrid midfield didn't put a good performance compared to Inter Milan midfield and I think  
Diego simeone would have played both Griezmann and morata up front because it was difficult for Llorente on that position,The second leg will be more interesting.

[rendravolt]

My guess is only one of all the matches presented last night but that doesn't change the results of my multibet win. However, I have to cash out this win because there is a match in another league which is still going on in a few days.

I bet a draw no bet for Dortmund and as we know the result is the same 1-1 draw. I think this result is still quite decent considering that Dortmund is playing away from home in the first leg and PSV also doesn't want to lose like that against a more experienced team like Dortmund. A goal from Donyell Malen and a penalty kick from Luke De Joong made the score a draw and in fact the result could still have changed if the existing opportunities had been converted better.

On the other hand, I am happy that Inter has still proven their consistency so far and playing in front of their fans has no doubts at all about securing victory. We know that Atletico in the Champions League is very strong and they put much more pressure when trying to gain an advantage. But unfortunately Inter's defense was very strong in this match so they had a lot of trouble. Morata also came on in the second half but was unable to change any results and instead Arnautovic managed to score the winning goal for Inter in the 79th minute. This result means Inter have a slight aggregate advantage in the second leg.

Regardless of what happens, the final result 1-1 is very profitable for Dortmund who will play the second leg at home.
PSV has actually made maximum efforts but the quality of the Dortmund team is slightly better than PSV so the results of this series are not surprising.

And for the Inter Milan vs Atletico Madrid match, it was very fierce, even though Inter Milan won the match, they couldn't completely calm down because they only had a 1 goal lead, making it possible to be chased by Atletico who will play at home in the second leg.

Inter vs Atletico Madrid
   1     -        0

Look how Inter really didn't give any chance for Atletico Madrid to attack.


Atletico Madrid seemed to be really frustrated because they were so hard to attack to Inter's  defense. Actually, Both Atletico Madrid and Inter did great job, but in this case, Inter did much better in attacking. they are more offensive although they actually also faced some difficulties during the match.

Inter Milan performs far better than Atletico Madrid; if it weren't for the Atletico Madrid goalkeeper, who made numerous saves, I believe Inter Milan would have scored more goals. I was expecting the match ending in a draw because both teams are strong this season and Inter Milan is still aiming to win the Seria A championship. In the Champions League as well as Seria A, Inter Milan is still playing well. I thought Atletico Madrid's performance would be stronger after Morata replaced Saul Ñíguez in the second half, but they appear to be struggling to attack Inter Milan. I hope to see them perform more than this at home in their second leg.

Borusia Dortmund did appeared to me like they were going to win this game but then they ended the game in a draw, taking a look at how the group stage games were like for them, they had tough teams around them yet Dortmund was still able to finish top of the group which could means they were actually a good team and in this match facing PSV who isn't a weak team wasn't an easy one because PSV did played well too.

Dortmund's performance against PSV was still amazing; they took the lead in the first half of the match, D. Malen scored in the 23 minutes of play; sadly, the match ended in a draw because of the penalty. Dortmund plays a really good game, despite that PSV is the hosts and they are not a weak team, I think Dortmund will qualify to the next round, i believe they will win their next game at home.

Correct. From the current condition of the 2 teams, I think a draw is very fair for both teams. The reason is that PSV Eindhoven in terms of performance this season is much better, even in the domestic league they are unbeatable. Meanwhile, in my opinion, Borussia Dortmund's performance this season is less stable and even tends to be inconsistent. So a draw is still good for Dortmund to be able to turn things around in the second leg which will be played at home. I even think that PSV should have won this match in the first leg because PSV dominated most of the match and could have scored 3-1 if they had taken advantage of opportunities more effectively.

[Mayor of ogba]

Atletico Madrid have tried to do their best, but it must be admitted that Inter Milan has slightly better strength and because Inter Milan plays at home, their motivation and self-confidence is greater than Atletico Madrid.
I think Atletico Madrid's 1 goal defeat is not too difficult for Atletico Madrid to turn things around because Atletico Madrid will play at home in the second leg so they still have a chance.

Overall Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan do not have a significant difference in quality so in the round of 16 the match between these two teams is very difficult to predict.

I disagree, Inter completely dominating in this match despite they only score one goal. It's shame to see Atletico Madrid, they were able to fight against Real Madrid which one of toughest club in the world, but they can't resist against Inter.

Inter could score more than one if they're lucky enough, I don't expect Atletico Madrid to win in the second leg, they're on a different level.

Inter Milan defeated Atletico Madrid yesterday because Inter Milan played better than Atletico Madrid and created so many chances. Inter Milan has been consistent this season, both in Italy's Serie A and the UEFA Champions League. Inter Milan might share the point with Atletico Madrid when they play the second leg.

[emrecemsan]

I think both results were expected, what do you think? To tell the truth Dortmund could have won as well despite not being favoured by bookmakers. But they couldn't prevent the equalizer. Still this is a decent result to finish the job at Signal Iduna Park, right? I think so because there is technically an obvious quality difference between these teams.

I got really bored while watching the Inter v Atletico Madrid one.    I thought that we would see at least 3 goals and Inter would win by 2-1 at worst. The result could have been worse for Atletico Madrid actually because they were really ineffective here. They just went there to secure a draw obviously.

PSV and Dortmund both performed well. A 1-1 draw was a fitting result for this match. To be honest, I expected such a result in this match. My prediction was that the match would be a 1-1 or 2-2 draw. Because both groups are very similar. You cannot consider any group as weak.

A draw in the away match is a good result for Dortmund. However, it is uncertain whether Dortmund will be able to play well in the home match. However, the team is in good form now. Dortmund have more chances to win the home match. I like their match strategy. Although they didn't attack much, every attack they made was very sharp.

Dortmund is not a strong challenger and they always fail to be the best even though the hope to get success is in sight. The Dortmund group phase managed to escape but I am not sure they can go further because their appearance is sometimes less consistent. Moreover, the Champions League is very competitive and very different from the domestic league, so the competition here will be far more difficult than in the domestic league.

A draw at home to PSV Eindhoven is indeed very beneficial for Dortmund because in the second leg they can pursue goals at home. If you look at the opportunity in the match Dortmund should be able to score more than one goal but not put to good use. PSV Eindhoven managed to master the game and dominated the match better than Dortmund but unfortunately unable to add goals.

[coinlocket$]

Win for Inter but in the second leg in Spain it will be a different story.

1-0 is a good result but very open to for a comeback.

[Ruttoshi]

Atletico Madrid's performance against Inter Milan was not that good yesterday. Atletico Madrid managed to have seven attempts with no shot on target, which even made Inter Milan's goalkeeper more relaxed. If Inter Milan can stop Atletico Madrid from scoring in their return match, I think Inter Milan will qualify for the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League.

Did you believe Atletico Madrid would defeat Inter Milan even in the second leg of the match? That won't happen, and even if it does, it won't be in an easier way. Given how the match played yesterday and how Inter Milan has performed this season, it will be extremely difficult for Atletico Madrid to defeat Inter Milan. The match was very tough, as I expected, and both teams are very good goal scorers, but Inter Milan is more astute than Atletico Madrid in this regard. You can tell from the game that Inter takes the game very seriously and creates plenty of scoring opportunities.

Home games typically benefit the team playing at home, but sometimes a poor performance hurts a team playing at home. The second leg of the match will be challenging, but regardless of the outcome, it will be extremely difficult for Atletico Madrid to win, even if they do manage to score even one goal.

If Atletico wants to win the second leg in Spain, they need to improve their performance and see how they can easily penetrate Inter's defense, if not the match might end up not in their favor. Inter is very strong this season, and I believe that they will love to come to Spain for a win and not a draw because they are of more advantage of qualifying to the next round than Atletico.

Atletico is not that consistent these days with their matches and it might be a problem for them to be able to win Inter, because of this. Inter have being so consistent this season and we saw it in both domestic and European competition, so this gives Inter a better chance of winning Atletico in Spain, but I am not underestimating Atletico as football is full of surprises.

PSV has actually made maximum efforts but the quality of the Dortmund team is slightly better than PSV so the results of this series are not surprising. I don't know why the referee killed that game by awarding that controversial penalty to PSV, but these things happen in football and we have to take it that way. But am sure the Dortmund coach and staffs will be more happy that they didn't lose the entire points in this game.

And for the Inter Milan vs Atletico Madrid match, it was very fierce, even though Inter Milan won the match, they couldn't completely calm down because they only had a 1 goal lead, making it possible to be chased by Atletico who will play at home in the second leg.

The outcome of yesterday's game is still Favourable to Dortmund who have the chance to win the second leg in the own stadium. Their performance yesterday was really good and if they can play like that in their home they will definitely qualify

[BlackBoss_]

Dortmund is not a strong challenger and they always fail to be the best even though the hope to get success is in sight. The Dortmund group phase managed to escape but I am not sure they can go further because their appearance is sometimes less consistent. Moreover, the Champions League is very competitive and very different from the domestic league, so the competition here will be far more difficult than in the domestic league.

Dortmund are not good enough to win titles in Bundesliga and Champions League recent seasons but they have good quality. They performed well in their group to be two eligible clubs and it shows their quality. PSV looks to be an opponent that does not outweighs Dortmund in quality and the first match shows it too. They are the host but only can equalize the match by a penalty and will face with big risk at Dortmund's home stadium.

A draw at home to PSV Eindhoven is indeed very beneficial for Dortmund because in the second leg they can pursue goals at home. If you look at the opportunity in the match Dortmund should be able to score more than one goal but not put to good use. PSV Eindhoven managed to master the game and dominated the match better than Dortmund but unfortunately unable to add goals.

Dominate a match at home and fail to get a win, it's a disadvantage of PSV before a second match in Germany. Dortmund actually achieved their target when playing in Netherlands and they will return home with a little advantage. It is not too much as if Dortmund lose at their home stadium, they will be knocked out by PSV. PSV don't need any big win, just a minimal win and because Dortmund also need a win to go next, PSV can play defensive and counter attacking in a next match. Dortmund must know that they have small advantage but also have risk to be lost in this pair.

[Swordsoffreedom]

Regardless of what happens, the final result 1-1 is very profitable for Dortmund who will play the second leg at home.

Dortmund have a big chance of qualifying for the next round. In home matches the players of the teams are confident and can perform well. In yesterday's home match we saw PSV players play well. They did a lot of attacks. But Dortmund were very tactical. Their main aim was to strengthen the defence. After keeping the defense strong, Dortmund's players launched a counter attack.

PSV has actually made maximum efforts but the quality of the Dortmund team is slightly better than PSV so the results of this series are not surprising.

This is the gameplay I expected from PSV. Because this two teams is not consider a weak teams at all.



This statistic clearly shows that the match was dominated by PSV's players. They played well it's true. The attacking players missed several chances. Otherwise, maybe PSV would have won.

And for the Inter Milan vs Atletico Madrid match, it was very fierce, even though Inter Milan won the match, they couldn't completely calm down because they only had a 1 goal lead, making it possible to be chased by Atletico who will play at home in the second leg.

Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid both had strong squads. So the match was also very competitive. However, I expected to see better performances from players in the forward lineup of Atletico Madrid. I think Atletico Madrid were tactically weak in this match. Otherwise, Atletico Madrid had the ability to draw the match.

[onecall123]

Win for Inter but in the second leg in Spain it will be a different story.

1-0 is a good result but very open to for a comeback.

Inter got the upper hand in the first leg with a close win, leaving room for a comeback.

If Inter manages to beat Athletico in both legs, it could be their year in the UCL. I think they have a strong team with a great fighting attitude. However, the second leg is likely to be intense. Atletico is a good team, so we'll have to see what happens in the second leg in Madrid. Atletico will need to attack more in the second leg, and Inter might be concerned about playing away in Spain.
