UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[knowngunman]

A draw is also what I opted for at the onset of this game but it seems like Christensen just gave Barcelona the lead and currently the game is 3-2 in favor of Barcelona. Just like you stated, PSG aren't really playing as if they are the home team and i doubt that they can equalize this third goal as the time is almost up but it's good to see that this first round of the champions league playoffs is filled with lots of goals scored, if you are the type of gambler that bets on goals then you might just be lucky to place the right bet.

Barcelona were losing 2-1 and then Pedri came on within fifteen minutes they've gone up 3-2 with a sensational come back. PSG were so relax right from the first half of the game without putting pressure. The game might end up draw or PSG winning probably if they had play like they did in the second half throughout the whole game. Mbappe hasn't been playing much for sometime now and it's adding burden on PSG. Perhaps, he's not longer finding it interesting to play for the team again but at least he has to respect the contract until the end of the season. The goal keeper was also not helping matters, there is lack of communication between the goal keeper and the defenders.

I am happy with the result of this match, at least Barcelona performed quite well even though there were many mistakes they made. But what was quite scary was PSG's quick goal, starting from Dembele in the 48th minute and followed by Vithinha two minutes later. I initially thought that Barcelona would not restore the situation, but Raphina scored her second goal again and equalized. and in the end, Christensen took advantage of an assist from Gundohan and used it very well to score a goal. yeah, Barcelona was able to make a comeback in this match with a score of 2-3. sufficient capital for Xavi to host Paris Saint-Germain at Camp Nou, Barcelona's home ground.

Interestingly, I rarely keep up-to-date on Barcelona players, especially those who are injured. however, in this match De Jong, Predi, were played again. next, they will adapt quickly to other Barcelona players. and this victory, worthy of Barcelona.
As for the other matches, I actually didn't watch them. However, as I said, Atletico Madrid will win the match against Dortmund. well, today's match was quite entertaining.

[Baki202]

In the PSG-Barcelona match, Barcelona managed to close the first half ahead in the away match.PSG started the second half fast.PSG, who scored 2 goals in the 52nd minute and about 6 minutes, managed to turn the match.I did not expect PSG to score so fast in the second half.
Atletico Madrid is 2-0 up against Dortmund.I don't think Atletico Madrid will even give Dortmund a chance to draw from this minute.The score of the match will end like 3-1 maximum.

surprised at what all these guys are playing because even PSG of all clubs could not even manage Barcelona, they both have six shots on target and possession. PSG got more numbers than Barcelona and I was already expecting PSG to be able to beat Barcelona and see what happened. And if you look at what PSG tried, they would have even tried there best and left the game with a draw. From the first half, they would not have given psg that opportunity to even score they would have played 50% defensive and 50% attacking   there focus was all aiming winning, and some times that can make you lose focus. and Barca did a good job but I was still disappointed at what PSG played tonight. Atletico Madrid scoring those first two goals during the first half made everything easy for them. That is the same thing Barcelona did.

[Ahli38]

Dortmund were very unlucky today. 2 balls hit the post, they lost 2-1 in a game they could have won. But they showed that they are really ambitious for the rematch. Haller's impressive goal kept their hopes alive. Atletico's play in the first half was nothing in the second half. Dortmund had the momentum and tried to find the second goal, but failed. The second leg will be very competitive again.

The second leg for the Dortmund vs Atletico Madrid match looks like it will be even more exciting. Because Dortmund will not allow the same result to happen in the second leg. But Atletico Madrid is also a strong team. So the aggregate advantage that Atletico Madrid currently has will definitely make Atletico Madrid try to maintain it.

2 teams from Laliga now have the advantage from the first leg. Namely Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, ​​who each managed to win in the first leg. Meanwhile, Real Madrid's fate is still uncertain because in the first leg they only got a draw. Meanwhile, the two teams from the Premier League have yet to gain an advantage. Because Manchester City and Arsenal still don't have an advantage from the results in the first leg. But Manchester City's chances at the second leg seem to be much greater. Because they will be the host. Meanwhile, Arsenal in the second leg will be guests visiting the opponent's headquarters. This will be more interesting. And I liked the many goals that came in the first leg of the quarter-finals this season. I expect the same thing in the second leg later.

...

And now PSG are turning things around quite quickly. Now the score has changed to 2-1. PSG managed to score 2 goals in 2 minutes. Namely in the 48th minute by Dembele and in the 50th minute by Vitor Ferreira. In the second half PSG seemed to be more aggressive and I think their playing pattern was a little different. It seemed like their coach had finished analyzing Barcelona's abilities in the first half. So now PSG can play with better preparation in the second half. But don't worry, the second half is still in the 61st minute and I don't think Barcelona will give up quickly either. Barcelona is now trying to equalize the score again.

It has already been equalized by PSG and I have to say I thought that PSG would be more dominant playing at home, but it seems that Barcelona is doing a good job there. They don't have quite as much ball possession as PSG, but the number of chances of both teams is about equal, which I think is quite a big deal as that already gives of what to expect in the second leg of this game between these two teams that I think nobody really know how far they can make it in the Champions League. But a draw would be an acceptable result for Barcelona as they are quite strong at home when there is something on the line.

A draw is also what I opted for at the onset of this game but it seems like Christensen just gave Barcelona the lead and currently the game is 3-2 in favor of Barcelona. Just like you stated, PSG aren't really playing as if they are the home team and i doubt that they can equalize this third goal as the time is almost up but it's good to see that this first round of the champions league playoffs is filled with lots of goals scored, if you are the type of gambler that bets on goals then you might just be lucky to place the right bet.

Of course, Christensen goal on the 73rd minutes was able to make a difference in the match, giving Barcelona a better advantage of qualifying to the semifinals. Barcelona was able to take advantage of their chances, which led to their victory.

It will be difficult for PSG to come to Spain and win with two goals difference and qualify to the semifinals, because Barcelona will show them what is football in Spain. Atletico Madrid also did well by winning their match at home, I see that today they Spanish teams won their match, which is a one

Atletico Madrid was very very lucky and unlucky at the same time,they were very unlucky when Samuel Lino lost a clamorous chance with just 2 meters away from goal and he didn't score that 3-1 goal and then they were extremely lucky in the 95th minute of the game,the last one where Dortmund nearly scored the 2-2 goal.

Taking into consideration their last encounter in Germany where Dortmund won 4-0 I think it will be a difficult night for them next week in Dortmund to be able to retain this advantage of this first leg,anything can happen yet from what I saw today it most probably end with a Dortmund win and also a Dortmund qualification for the semi finals.

[Abu-Naim]

Dortmund were very unlucky today. 2 balls hit the post, they lost 2-1 in a game they could have won. But they showed that they are really ambitious for the rematch. Haller's impressive goal kept their hopes alive. Atletico's play in the first half was nothing in the second half. Dortmund had the momentum and tried to find the second goal, but failed. The second leg will be very competitive again.

Atletico Madrid were very strong defensively especially while playing at home that is why they usually play defensive games which is part of Semione’s best plan and it works for him against Dortmund as they were unable to draw the match. Dortmund played well, they dominated the match but couldn’t score. I think with this performance, I am sure the will
Perform better in the second leg.

PSG on the other end lost to Barcelona in their home. They missed their privilege of using home advantage despite leading by 2-1 in the beginning of the second half, they couldn’t maintain as they are about to miss their hope of qualifying to the semifinal.

[Rengga Jati]

I didn't expect Barcelona to play as well as they did today at the Parc des Princes, but it's not really a surprise. Xavi managed to prove his words that Barcelona can hurt PSG in the Champions League this season even though they are underestimated, so of course 2-3 is a good result to get. Of course PSG will be under pressure to face the second leg at home to Barcelona, ​​in fact I am starting to believe that Barcelona can qualify for the semifinals for the first time since Xavi coached them.

Seriously, this also makes me very confused. Barcelona can compete as effectively and well as that this time. Even before the match started, I personally still highly doubted Barcelona. And even thought, ah there's no way Barcelona will win, PSG will definitely win in this first leg. However, Xavi was really able to break it all. He succeeded in bringing Barcelona to a very satisfying victory. Yes, even though this is only the first leg with a score of 3 - 2, even though the aggregate difference is 1 goal, but this has become a very good thing for them because they have secured the first position. It's just a matter of how Xavi is able to maintain or increase this score in the second leg.

It will be difficult for PSG to come to Spain and win with two goals difference and qualify to the semifinals, because Barcelona will show them what is football in Spain. Atletico Madrid also did well by winning their match at home, I see that today they Spanish teams won their match, which is a one

Yes, the same goes for Atletico Madrid, so there are certainly quite a lot of people who doubt them. Because in La Liga, their performance is also not consistently good. It's just that at UCL, their motivation and performance have, to be honest, improved much better. This gives them a big chance to qualify for the next round. However, it will definitely depend on how they will optimize their performance in the second leg. Because, Dortmund will definitely evaluate its performance and prepare tactics to break the success of Atletico Madrid. It's just a matter of how the two clubs will be able to realize it. La Liga clubs at UCL this season are really cool

[promise444c5]

2 teams from Laliga now have the advantage from the first leg. Namely Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, ​​who each managed to win in the first leg.

Did you just said managed  
Did you really watched the game , I can't tell that of Athletico as I didn't watch it but I knew Barca Earned it because they play real good  by maintain  their positions, not being  supportive  but judging from their game play today
PSG were  quite defensive  today and I know they are always furious  with their second legs so Barca has to prepare against their second  leg at it's  going to be a furry  one.

Many people believe PSG can win easily against Barcelona because PSG is playing at home. PSG also has a manager and quality players to perform better, but in fact Barcelona actually managed to hurt them with a 2-3 win. I certainly wondered how Xavi could bring De Jong and Pedri into this match when they were reportedly still injured while the player list had not been released, it was a good surprise for all the fans.

The return of De Jong and Pedri means Xavi has many options to choose a good midfielder in this match. Roberto played well in the first half, De Jong and Gundogan too, but Pedri, who had just returned from injury, immediately proved his quality with an assist after a few minutes on the pitch. Congratulations to Barcelona, ​​as well as to their fans.

Xavi Hernandez indeed impressed with those two substitute Into the game for Barcelona, Both Pedri and  Chritnsen played a good role to ensure that they proceed further with the win into the next round of the Champions League Competition to be played at Camp Nou next week.

These Spanish sides impressed, I did not watch Atletico Madrid but I knew he could handle these Borrussia Dortmund side who could not win a Chelsea side that flopped at this stage last season.
Diego Simeone is that man though earlier this season, I felt like he has stayed too long with the club.

Was just surprised how the Barcelona and PSG went because Barcelona actually scored first before PSG equalized and was leading at the break only to return for second half and Barcelona equalized and won the match at last. It's been long Barcelona play with so much confidence as they did in this match between them and PSG and hopefully they may qualify for the semi finals considering the advantage they have gotten in PSG's home.

The surprised players that featured in this game by Xavi really made an awesome contribution to Barcelona regardless of the fact that they just returned from injury but yet they were able to win PSG.

[odunybiz]

Dortmund were very unlucky today. 2 balls hit the post, they lost 2-1 in a game they could have won. But they showed that they are really ambitious for the rematch. Haller's impressive goal kept their hopes alive. Atletico's play in the first half was nothing in the second half. Dortmund had the momentum and tried to find the second goal, but failed. The second leg will be very competitive again.

Dortmund still have hope of qualifying if they play like they played today at home in the second leg. But it will have been much better for them if they have played draw from away today. Well, just like you have said the second leg will be more competitive than today's match as Dortmund will want to play with his full best to win.

[DiMarxist]

Really what happened to PSG was not a surprise to most of us. I was thinking that Paris Saint-Germain would scored another goal to make 3 goal at the 85 minutes time because the oppression was much. But Barcelona played rough and that was why they got up to 4 yellow card. Paris Saint-Germain defend was good and Barca goalkeeper was good as well. Paris Saint-Germain possessed ball more than Barca today. Atletico Madrid tried for winning their match with Borussia Dortmund though Borussia Dortmund possessed ball compare to their counterpart.

This got me thinking as well whether I underestimated Barcelona in the Champions League or whether I overestimated PSG. Or as a third option, whether they are both without chances against a team like Manchester City and today one average team was able to beat another average team, which wouldn't make it a spectacular performance. But I agree that losing the lead like that with two quick goals and then making a comeback and turning it around again into a 3-2 lead and then win the game, I think that was a strong statement made by Barcelona. Maybe they are not as easy to beat as I thought. But I still think they are not good enough to win the title.

[Promocodeudo]

In the PSG-Barcelona match, Barcelona managed to close the first half ahead in the away match.PSG started the second half fast.PSG, who scored 2 goals in the 52nd minute and about 6 minutes, managed to turn the match.I did not expect PSG to score so fast in the second half.
Atletico Madrid is 2-0 up against Dortmund.I don't think Atletico Madrid will even give Dortmund a chance to draw from this minute.The score of the match will end like 3-1 maximum.

surprised at what all these guys are playing because even PSG of all clubs could not even manage Barcelona, they both have six shots on target and possession. PSG got more numbers than Barcelona and I was already expecting PSG to be able to beat Barcelona and see what happened. And if you look at what PSG tried, they would have even tried there best and left the game with a draw. From the first half, they would not have given psg that opportunity to even score they would have played 50% defensive and 50% attacking   there focus was all aiming winning, and some times that can make you lose focus. and Barca did a good job but I was still disappointed at what PSG played tonight. Atletico Madrid scoring those first two goals during the first half made everything easy for them. That is the same thing Barcelona did.

That's why I said that the game of soccer is unpredictable, the rate at which psg secured the two goals in the second half of the game one will think that psg will will win the game but the we're on lasers and the allowed it to deter them from securing a wining in the match, though it wasn't very easy for Barca to win the match but they were able to manage the game better than psg, barca was two determine to win the game and they won, athletic Madrid on the other side is known for their defensive nature but I will say that luck was on their side in the game, Athletico Madrid secured a goal in the first 4 minutes of the first half that put them ahead of dortmund, the first half of the entire match was won by them because of their defensive style of game, though dortmund dominated the match in the second half because of the pressure that come from their side to athletico but it was unfortunate for them to lose after all their effort equalize the game, athletico Madrid Madrid just displayed like Chelsea of those days when morinho was in charge, football is all about determination to either get a goal or maintain the existing goal in other to avoid your opponent from svoring.

[ShowOff]

A draw is also what I opted for at the onset of this game but it seems like Christensen just gave Barcelona the lead and currently the game is 3-2 in favor of Barcelona. Just like you stated, PSG aren't really playing as if they are the home team and i doubt that they can equalize this third goal as the time is almost up but it's good to see that this first round of the champions league playoffs is filled with lots of goals scored, if you are the type of gambler that bets on goals then you might just be lucky to place the right bet.

Barcelona were losing 2-1 and then Pedri came on within fifteen minutes they've gone up 3-2 with a sensational come back. PSG were so relax right from the first half of the game without putting pressure. The game might end up draw or PSG winning probably if they had play like they did in the second half throughout the whole game. Mbappe hasn't been playing much for sometime now and it's adding burden on PSG. Perhaps, he's not longer finding it interesting to play for the team again but at least he has to respect the contract until the end of the season. The goal keeper was also not helping matters, there is lack of communication between the goal keeper and the defenders.

This is another interesting match in the quarterfinals of the season. PSG, who played at home and were favorites, ultimately failed to win the match. Honestly, I'm not surprised by what happened, of course because I think PSG doesn't have good squad depth in their midfield. Barcelona has Gundogan, Roberto and De Jong as midfielders, while PSG relies on Vitinha, Lee Kang-in and Fabian Ruiz as midfielders. It was clear that Barcelona had the advantage there even though they actually had several young players in their line-up in the first half.

Barcelona took an early lead over PSG before Dembele equalized the score at 1-1 in the second half. Vitinha gave PSG a 2-1 lead over Barcelona 3 minutes after Dembele's goal, but Xavi's response in changing strategy really made Barcelona take control of the game even though they lost possession of the ball. Barcelona won in the first leg, it was in line with what I expected.

[Miles2006]

As you would expect, now Barcelona has scored its first goal in the first half, namely Barcelona got a goal in the 37th minute by Raphael (Rapinha). And I think Barcelona could add goals in the second half. And I hope PSG can also reply to this goal. Because I expect both of them to score.

The first half will soon end and it feels like the score will not change. And now the score is
PSG vs Barcelona = 0-1
Atletico Madrid vs Dortmund = 2-0

The first half is now over and as you said the score is still the same as you stated. I didn't expect Atletico Madrid to lead by 2 goals in the first half and even scored a goal in the 4th minute. I think Atletico Madrid will really take advantage of the first leg to create a high aggregate lead. So that they can be calmer when playing in the second leg at home to Dortmund.

Meanwhile, PSG, I think they will still be able to get a goal back in the second half. Because it would be very bad if they lost in front of their own supporters. And we know PSG also has great players. So everyone's expectations for PSG are also quite high. Even though there are more people who support Barcelona. But I'm sure there are a lot of people betting on PSG in this match. Because remember they are the hosts in this match.

I also think the same thing that PSG will also score a goal in the second half and make it a temporary draw. but after that I felt Barcelona would also score another goal to take the lead in the first leg. We'll see now because now the second half has started and has entered the 49th minute.

For the Atletico Madrid vs Dortmund match, I think victory for Atletico Madrid is almost certain. unless Dortmund can score a draw in this match with very dramatic goals.

It was very close to the end of the matches and Barcelona made a great comeback. They took a 3-2 lead in France. This situation will put a lot of pressure on PSG. Now they will have to take more risks in Spain. Additionally, another Spanish team, Atletico Madrid, is ahead 2-1. It's a dream night for the Spaniards right now. There are two best possible scenarios for them. Especially the victory over Barcelona becomes more valuable.

I couldn't even begin to say how disappointed I was at PSG for losing out when all hopes for me was they would at least hold a draw.
It was indeed a quiet night for Mbappe and it goes to show how Barca still remains top tier club with the control of the midfield and comeback tactical display.
For Atletico Madrid, it was a good and anticipated win and they kept a good record having struggled all season long to get to this point.

This is champions league for everyone, everything looks so different and super tough. In Champions league you see a lot of competition when there's no big or small team especially in this round cause getting to this round shows all teams with the qualification tried so I can't except less from any team now. I excepted more from PSG but I'm surprised, I never had the chance to watch the second half. From my predictions I had excess confidence in Mbappe, I also know Barcelona is a tough team but I thought they never had the ability like before to withstand PSG, it's nice seeing Barcelona with good record this season

[pawel7777]

(...)The Atletico Madrid vs Dortmund match also ended with a score of 2-1. The home team, Atletico Madrid, managed to win this match with a narrow score of 2-1. But I'm still not sure whether Atletico Madrid will be able to maintain this advantage in the second leg or not. Because Dortmund will definitely be stronger in the second leg when they play at home.

Pretty horrible game by Dortmund to be honest. Both goals for Athletico were scored after rookie mistakes in defence. I guess the pressure paid off for the Spaniards.
Borussia should feel lucky for only losing by one goal, which will make the 2nd leg pretty interesting.
For what it's worth, Borussia managed to get 67% possession, which was a bit surprising, but that's probably due to Athletico's tactic.

A precious win by Barcelona, the only team that managed to win an away game this leg. This puts them in a nice position for the 2nd leg game at home.

[lalabotax]

This is another interesting match in the quarterfinals of the season. PSG, who played at home and were favorites, ultimately failed to win the match. Honestly, I'm not surprised by what happened, of course because I think PSG doesn't have good squad depth in their midfield.

Barcelona won in the first leg, it was in line with what I expected.

I really didn't think that Barcelona could beat PSG when they played away. In fact, I thought that even if Barcelona played at home, they would definitely lose to PSG, but it turned out to be completely unexpected. Because the results are quite surprising. Even though the total score is not that good, victory after victory can take them to the next round. And Barcelona must always maintain and improve it optimally. Rapinha, this time really played and was really cool. He managed to score 2 goals which made it possible for Barcelona. Indeed, there is no doubt how they managed to beat PSG at home.

This is champions league for everyone, everything looks so different and super tough. In Champions league you see a lot of competition when there's no big or small team especially in this round cause getting to this round shows all teams with the qualification tried so I can't except less from any team now. I excepted more from PSG but I'm surprised, I never had the chance to watch the second half. From my predictions I had excess confidence in Mbappe, I also know Barcelona is a tough team but I thought they never had the ability like before to withstand PSG, it's nice seeing Barcelona with good record

Barca after the Messi era looks very underestimated. Nobody gives them a chance. There is a perception that they cannot play beyond the quarter finals. But Barca destroyed this perception with their play today. If they don't make a mistake at home in the second leg, they will reach the semi finals and they have a very good chance of eliminating the team from the other side and playing the final. This season Barca can return to the good old days, even if they are unlikely to win La Liga, they have a very good chance of reaching the Champions League final.
