UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

talking about the other semi final
I'm really looking forward to today's PSG match
Is it worth taking a chance on PSG winning or am I risking too much?

If you want to follow bookies predictions then it is PSG that is expected to win.
For me it is a draw > PSG > Borussia Dortmund with a small narrow and a high risk between the draw and PSG victory. If Borussia Dortmund would win the game then it will be a surprise for me since they were able to reach that point thanks to the relatively weaker opponents they faced comparing to the other teams that are playing semifinals.

For Bayern Munich a draw is quite detrimental because the second leg will be played at the Santiago Bernabeu. If you look at the match as it progressed, Bayern Munich had far more opportunities to score goals, but the final finishing was still quite poor so they only managed to score two goals. Two penalties were awarded by the referee in the match and were awarded to Bayern Munich and Real Madrid respectively.

Real Madrid have a good defense and they are not in too much of a rush to attack so try to defend to frustrate Bayern Munich. Meanwhile, Bayern Munich were unable to take advantage of Harry Kane's sharpness because they didn't get many opportunities and he only managed to score a goal through a penalty kick. The second leg will be much more tense and Real Madrid will be much more favored to qualify for the final.

Bayern didn't look bad, they reminded me of City at some points when they tried to press Real, but Real's defense would have been good. It was important for Bayern to win, but as we remember, two draws were enough for Real Madrid in the quarterfinals to advance further. It may not be easy for Bayern to play a draw away, but Bayern will definitely not give up so easily, if they also will play away as good as they played at home, then nothing is over for them.

Bayern Munich gave real Madrid much opportunities to penetrate their defense. Real Madrid were lucky that they weren't playing a team like Manchester City and allow them take the lead to the dying minutes, they could not have equalized. But that has already happened, so Bayern has to get prepared in the second leg. If Real Madrid could come to their home and get a draw, same why they can go to Spain and get a draw from there or possibly win. Thank God the away goals rules don't count any more, so they are not in any away at disadvantage, if they know they can't get the win, they should push hard and get the match to penalty shootout. Once the game get to penalty shootout it's now a 50:50 chance to qualify.

Madrid players didn't seem eager to get involved last night. I also didn't see the same hunger they had against Manchester City. That's why Madrid couldn't convert their chances. It's important to break that curse at the Bernabéu in the second leg. The first leg was a good game. I'm excited for the return leg at Santiago Bernabéu next week. Real Madrid is a miraculous club; they can change the game in seconds. Ancelotti can't afford to lose the second leg against Bayern Munich.

[Dzwaafu11]

Honestly, Bayern Munich would have won that game if they were clinical in the front but they wasted all those precious chances. To be fair enough, they unexpectedly played well because due to their inconsistency, I didn't expect much from them but playing nice football won't earn you points if you can not utilize your chances created and score. I think it's now obvious and provably that Madrid control champions league. Bayern Munich has given them upper hand for failing to take advantage of their own home ground.

With the current condition of Bayern Munich, they try in that game because even though they are at home, I didn’t expect them to play that way talkless of ending the game in a draw with Real Madrid, who I’m expecting to be the champions of the league this season. However, Real Madrid are in their best performance this season, while Bayern Munich are not so definitely. We should definitely expect winning from Real Madrid and not Bayern Munich, but nevertheless, it is still a good result for both teams, but I think Bayern Munich have lost hope of getting the title this season. 

If you want to follow bookies predictions then it is PSG that is expected to win.
For me it is a draw > PSG > Borussia Dortmund with a small narrow and a high risk between the draw and PSG victory. If Borussia Dortmund would win the game then it will be a surprise for me since they were able to reach that point thanks to the relatively weaker opponents they faced comparing to the other teams that are playing semifinals.

Though I’m not expecting to win from Dortmund because PSG are doing better than them and Dortmund only got to this stage because they faced weaker opponents in their previous matches, they managed to secure some points to be in this stage. However, PSG have a higher chance of winning the game than Dortmund, and I believe PSG will try and do that since the match is very important for them so they can face Real Madrid. 

[swogerino]

I never expected Bayern yesterday to be that much aggressive and although they played well some simple mistakes made them get to 2-2 draw which clearly is a result that favors Real Madrid despite goals in the opponent field do not count as 2 goals from quite some time now.I think that Real Madrid will crush Bayern Munchen in the return leg as simply they are superior in quality compared to Bayern and playing in their home stadium has always seen them victorious in 99% of the encounters they have against Bayern.

For tonight game I think that if Paris is serious about going to the final they should finish the job since tonight and not wait for the return leg,this way they will have peace of mind and I think the fact that they did not win at home in their local league shows that they saved their energies for tonight.

UEFA Champions League semi-final first leg was between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. Two teams that have won the Champions League 20 times in total and played in the final 27 times in total that was a great pleasure to watch. Bayern Munich draw 2-2 to Real Madrid at their home. But I think the advantage is in Real Madrid. The second leg will definitely be very difficult for Bayern Munich because they have to play in front of Real Madrid supporters. Also we can say for Real Madrid a "winner" for the Champions League.

Bayern Munich prove to people yesterday that they are well organized in this season to withstand any team to prove their seriousness in this semi-final, which they did to drew the game 2:2 with Real Madrid.

It was a tough game from the beginning, but Bayern Munich change the game in the second half to block Real Madrid strategy to ensure they draw the game in their first leg, so that they will have the opportunity to stand strong to battle with Real Madrid in the second leg.

Despite Bayern Munich will be meeting Real Madrid in their home for second leg, I have that believe that Bayern Munich will going to beat Real Madrid 0:2 to achieve victory from the game to qualify for final stage.

[mamesso]

You could say that, the draw at the Allianz Arena meant that Tuchel had to devise alternative tactics and strategies for his squad when competing at the Santiago Bernabeu. however, we don't know how the match will go in the second leg before the match takes place. So Bayern Munich still has a chance to win the match in the second leg even though the match will be held at Madrid headquarters. because after all, this is not the first time Bayern Munich has visited Santiago Bernabeu. moreover, the semifinal match in the second leg was the deciding match. It could be that the situation will reverse, Real Madrid will dominate the game, and Bayern will have to look for gaps to break through Madrid's defense. in particular, executing a quick counterattack.

The position that Tuchel needs to pay more attention to when they play the second leg is defense, Real Madrid can do unexpected things that make Bayern Munich fail to advance to the final. I predict Real Madrid will break into Bayern Munich goal more than once if Tuchel implements an attacking strategy at the Santiago Bernabeu because Real Madrid is very quick in counter attack. Tuchel had to rewatch the game when Real Madrid held Manchester City to a draw to limit the movement of Real Madrid players and close down spaces that could endanger his team's goal.

This match is very important for Real Madrid who are trying to appear in the final, playing at the Santiago Bernabeu will increase the enthusiasm of the players in achieving victory. Bayern Munich must take advantage of every opportunity they get to put pressure on Real if they want to qualify for the final. Harry Kane's sharpness must be utilized to score as many goals as possible and build a strong defense to frustrate Real Madrid's players.

On the other hand, even though Die Roten excelled in possession of the ball, Real Madrid always found a way. No matter if they are pressured, Real Madrid can always keep up with their opponents. If Bayern wants to advance to the next phase, Tuchel must make the right strategy and tactics. because Madrid is playing at their own home. Apart from that, Don Carlo's team is not a team that panics easily, Madrid is a team that has a winning mentality in this competition compared to other teams. which means, Bayern Munich must be more alert when they visit Real Madrid's home ground.

There is no need to doubt Real Madrid mentality in the UCL, previously this team was also able to hold Manchester City to a 3-3 draw after previously trailing 3-2. Real Madrid's success in eliminating Manchester City was not due to coincidence or luck alone, the enthusiasm of the Real Madrid players needs to be appreciated because they were able to control their emotions even though their position was under pressure.

This is always a surprise when other people don't pay attention, that a club like Dortmund, which was initially not sure of qualifying, but managed to prove that it had passed by kicking Simeone troops, as well as PSG, at that time the gamblers made more offers for Barcelona, but in the end Barcelona also completely massacred. Therefore, it is time to open your eyes to what will happen, that Dortmund and PSG both have the same opportunity. Haven't we seen many big matches when Man City also had to swallow the bitter pill? Bayern Munich against Madrid was also favored by Madrid but ended in a draw. With so many unexpected events, the UCL competition is difficult to predict.

Snip.

Luis Enrique had made preparations before this match started, several of his mainstay players such as Kylian Mbappe, Lucas Hernandez and Gianluigi Donnarumma were not included in the starting list when PSG played against La Havre. He also doesn't care what results he achieves in that game because whatever the results are in Ligue 1, it no longer matters to his team.
Luis Enrique preparations are a form of his seriousness in facing Dortmund in the UCL because this match is very special for PSG who are trying to appear in the final. The massacre carried out at Barcelona headquarters could give PSG players encouragement to repeat their success. A victory at Dortmund headquarters would make it easier for PSG when playing the second leg.

[Webetcoins]

I watched how incredible assist from Toni Kroos for first Real Madrid goals by Vinicius Junior, he see left space and looking potential speed from Vinicius Jr but get weakness from Manuel Neuer with his position more offensive make easily got conceded the first goals. I think another brilliant assists last night created by Luka Modric but great save by Manuel Neuer make Bayern Munich not conceded three goals in last night.

Actually I am watching second half match and Real Madrid playing very interested after conceded two goals, firstly after leading first goal and their game plan more offensive after losing two goals make them playing more aggressive until Vinicius Jr scoring second goals from penalty kick. The draw result is good capital for Real Madrid with second leg match playing in their home, seems Madrid will get advantage for qualifying to final.

There is no doubt things were at the top in this first semifinal of the event with Real Madrid were really at the top and their strategy give them huge advantage while they were in position to steal the game but sadly at the end we are having good goal keeping from the Manuel Neuer which have brilliant saves and their team able this game on draw Vinícius Júnior were really amazing in this game, and he has done good job with I was expecting hat trick from him but sadly due to Manuel Neuer's brilliant keeping we have nothing about his well deserved hat trick.

With second leg which is going to play in Madrid things are looking well organized for the home side because they are doing good job in throughout season, and they can win in this game with having good chance for the win and having another final but still this is anybody game because both are well experienced and have equal chance.

[QueenVera]

At the Allianz. Real Madrid played well, as did the hosts who played very well, but of course it is still considered lucky for Real Madrid because they were able to play with a draw against Bayern. and personally, in the next match when Bayern plays Real Madrid in the second leg, I also want to bet on Real Madrid winning because of course as the host I am sure that Real Madrid will be able to play optimally and of course don't want to be embarrassed by Bayern.

But of course Bayern also cannot be taken lightly because Bayern definitely wants to become champions in the UCL. but Ancelotti's troops also definitely don't want to let Bayern qualify for the final. However, it seems that many people are favoring Real Madrid to win the match in the second leg. Of course, Real Madrid is currently serious about preparing for the match which of course they will host and of course, as the host, they will definitely have to prepare everything.

I am also sure that Real Madrid will rise and of course have the potential to win the UCL and I am also sure that Real Madrid will win trophies in the UCL and Laliga.

The UCL semi final kicked off yesterday with a match that holds great history and rivalry. The match between Bayern and Real Madrid was one that got me glued to the TV all through the 90 minutes of the encounter. Yes the rivalry between these teams was shown in their performance yesterday and the match was real thrilling. Bayern really put up a big show against Real Madrid as they were able to challenge this Real Madrid side so many times with their attack. They did well in terms of possession in the game and that helped them be able to have 2 goals.

 ⁠Real Madrid though sluggish, I think because of missing Carvajal weren’t so good on the left flank still were able to give the respect to this Bayern side and contained them. Real Madrid got a draw and I think going forward they will be the team to progress from this match.

 ⁠The return leg will be one exciting one as I hope Real wouldn’t make the silly errors they made defensively and then they will be able to defeat this Bayern side hands down. I wish Ancelotti goes good with hos tactics as the right tactics will be able to help the team progress.

UEFA Champions League semi-final first leg was between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. Two teams that have won the Champions League 20 times in total and played in the final 27 times in total that was a great pleasure to watch. Bayern Munich draw 2-2 to Real Madrid at their home. But I think the advantage is in Real Madrid. The second leg will definitely be very difficult for Bayern Munich because they have to play in front of Real Madrid supporters. Also we can say for Real Madrid a "winner" for the Champions League.

Bayern Munich prove to people yesterday that they are well organized in this season to withstand any team to prove their seriousness in this semi-final, which they did to drew the game 2:2 with Real Madrid.

It was a tough game from the beginning, but Bayern Munich change the game in the second half to block Real Madrid strategy to ensure they draw the game in their first leg, so that they will have the opportunity to stand strong to battle with Real Madrid in the second leg.

Despite Bayern Munich will be meeting Real Madrid in their home for second leg, I have that believe that Bayern Munich will going to beat Real Madrid 0:2 to achieve victory from the game to qualify for final stage.

You can't win even playing at home, let alone playing at Madrid's home, don't get your hopes up that Madrid will be easy to beat at their home, especially with a score of 0 - 2, maybe you are joking with your prediction, Madrid is not a weak team in the UCL, they are one of the strongest teams in the UCL and has a lot of experience and has even won many UCL trophies, so don't think they are easy to beat at home, in fact Munich should be careful when playing in the second leg, because they could be beaten with a landslide score.

We can't predict which team will be the best in this match because both are equally strong. If you look at the statistics, Madrid is actually much more favored, but keep in mind that the statistics are for previous players and are different from the current players, so there are definite changes. From the way they play and the quality of the team's strength, I'm not sure that Munich will win against Madrid because at Madrid's home ground they will definitely have prepared themselves to celebrate their victory because they have qualified for the UCL final. I hope that PSG will meet Madrid in the UCL final this season.

Bayern Munich failed to beat Real Madrid at home.Real Madrid managed to take the lead in the first half with a goal from Vinicius. Bayern Munich started the second half fast and managed to score 2 goals in 12 minutes.Bayern, who took the lead with the goals they found with Sane and Kane, could not keep the score and the situation was equalized again with Vinicius' goal from the penalty.In the match where both sides played a good game, the winner of the round will be determined in Real Madrid's field.

[rendravolt]

It was still an unforgettable night where Real Madrid still proved their Champions League DNA when they visited Bayern Munich's headquarters and were lucky they had the capital in the second leg when they only drew 2-2 against Bayern Munich. Each goal from Bayern Munich was scored by Leroy Sane and a penalty from Harry Kane, while Real Madrid's two goals were scored by Vinicius.

But what was most special was not the goal, but everyone was talking about the assist from Toni Kroos which made the world trending, especially on Twitter. We know that it is not difficult for Toni Kroos to provide a pass that is pleasing to the eye and that was proven by his assist for Vinicius' first goal where he saw the empty space left by Kim Min Jae and at that moment he appointed Vinicius to immediately run into that space and yes Immediately, it became a goal that managed to break through Manuel Neuer's goal. It is extraordinary that he is 34 years old but is still a mainstay in setting the tempo of the game and as the most active midfielder in helping the attack.

[Volgastallion]

That pass from Kross was top class, was like magic, some people talks about the Vinicius movement on that goal, and its ok but for me 80% of the goal stay in the key pass made from Kross.

I can understand how pissed Bayern Munich fans can be when an former player of your team makes this peak performance against you.

Both teams played this match seriously as a semi-final. the match ended with 2-2 goals. It was very good. the match had a hard fight. Real Madrid scored a goal in 24 minutes which is why I thought that Real Madrid would probably be at least 1 goal ahead of Bayern Munich. and when the half time of the game ended I had more confidence on Real Madrid that they will definitely win the match with a margin of 1 to 2 goals but in the 2nd half Bayern Munich scored 2 goals and Real Madrid scored 1 goal to finish the match with equal score.  But the 2nd half of the match was very enjoyable

This is a fascinating catch. I am not that active on Twitter / X, but is this the moment before the pass and the goal when Kroos points into that direction with his finger? Quite funny and thinking about it, Kim shouldn't have been caught by surprise like that. Passing is probably the best quality that Kroos has, but in this case it was made too easy for him. If he gets this offer from the Bayern Munich defense, Kroos immediately takes it. It was bad defensive play in my opinion, but combining Vinicius Junior's speed with Kroos' passing accuracy, I think everyone knows how such a game situation ends up when the defense is open like that.

[Baki202]

Well, hehe, I lost the bet even knowing that a draw was the most likely outcome
I could have followed my reason instead of the emotion of the game  
But it was worth it to watch another great game, and even more so that nothing is decided, the second game promises to be as good as it was against M. City, again

talking about the other semi final
I'm really looking forward to today's PSG match
Is it worth taking a chance on PSG winning or am I risking too much?

Did not make any bet yesterday, we all had how hopes high that there is no way that Madrid would have lost to Bayern, both reasons and emotion you would still have chosen the option you went for, the game was quite interesting and we were proved wrong by Bayern and how they were able to equalize was a surprise for everyone but the good thing is that they equalized and they proved to everyone that they can not be underestimated it was quite an interesting game at the end of the day.

I hope what happened to Real Madrid will not happen to psg today, and if psg should lose or play draw to that shows that they are serious. Because seriously a lot of people will go for a win for psg.

The result is a good one for Real Madrid, and will I say a bad one for Bayern Munich. Perhaps, the winner is still open to both clubs on a level ground, because if Bayern Munich can play without being intimidated in Spain, they can win the game or settle for a penalty shootout.

However, how don't know how possible it will be for Bayern Munich to win away from home, when it is the second leg, the chance of that happening is very slim, because Real Madrid are fierce and desperate when it comes to games like this, and being played at home. From the game play yesterday, both teams will have a tough fight in the second leg.

[dezoel]

These two teams have UCL DNA. They were playing with all of their spirit in order to lead the game. The game could end with 3-3 if vini and kane would not be missing their golden chance. Harry kane has been contributing a lot in this game and i really appreciate his effort.
It shows that if bayern munich was not that bad this season but we must admit that if leverkusen is still on fire right now. Im not even doubting it if munchen can't be underestimated at this moment.

The upcoming game will be a home game for madrid. Real madrid shall not repeat the result when it was losing 4 goals at home last season.

While we are having match between two top teams we can expect result like this with both were at the top of the game they avail their chances which helps them for having result like this even one stage I was expecting we will have win for the Bayern Munich but Real Madrid which is magician of the Champions League done good fight back and now all eyes on Bernabéu for the second leg game which could be also not easy for both sides if they are going to play with their full strength then surely we are going to watch top quality soccer and with still anybody game.

In the first half, we have Bayern Munich in dominance, but we have lead for the Real Madrid in the second half we are having good fight back from the Real Madrid but here we have two goals from the Bayern Munich which done good job and now have to play with same spirit in the second leg game.

Both sides performed wonderfully, and I thoroughly liked watching the game. In my opinion, Munich should have won yesterday so that when they travel to Santiago Bernabeu, they can easily defend the game and potentially proceed to the final. Real Madrid will certainly defeat Bayern Munich next week, as I don't believe Munich can beat Real Madrid at home. Tuchel feels he can defeat Madrid but fails to do so, and he has already failed because Ancelotti will be prepared to do whatever it takes to knock Munich out of the Champions League.

Harry Kane doesn't have luck in the Bayern Munich club in as he already lose all the trophy this season and people are expecting that he will win trophys in the team since he didn't win any in Tottenham, but unfortunately he is already losing in Munich, he lose the league title Leverkusen as perform more than them and collect the league with them this season, and the champions league is under probability because I don't think Tuchel can win Real Madrid in the Santiago Bernabéu next week. let see what will happen in the second leg if they can get the opportunity and win the game, but everyone believes in will definitely difficult to defeat madrid at home, am seeing Munich is already eliminated in the competition already.
