UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[qurbanshah02]

the second round matches are sure to be even more exciting than the 1st round ones, i expect both games to be at least as entertaining as barcelona - inter. this is mainly because each team has a big reason to win.

arsenal and psg are playing to win the ucl cup for the first time, barcelona last won it 10 years ago etc. sometimes even the finals can be boring but i think the last games of the semi finals will be good.

There is a lot of energy in this but in some matches there is no interest but one hopes that these matches will be quite interest but nothing happens due to which one has to be disappoint. A match like the one between Barcelona and Inter has a lot of mean and in addition to that there is also disappointment in matches like this because both the teams were quite strong which makes it difficult to predict.

It good for them and very good for their favourites because one of them will have a chance to win the league. There's also plenty of time for Barcelona I hope they play well this year and win. If the favourites play the final there will be interest otherwise I think the semi final matches will be the most difficult because that the position that many people are very disappoint in.

I was very impressed with the way Barcelona played against Inter Milan, they gave Barcelona a tough time especially in the first half when they scored the first two goals to lead but Barcelona returned the favor almost immediately and it was a good show. I hope the second leg will be interesting and enjoyable as the first leg.

Barcelona are formidable team, built with young players and having a genius as coach. Hansi Flick didn't relent to make good use of his opportunity to prove to the club's management and fans that he's competent for the managerial job. Who else is impressed with Barcelona performance against Inter Milan? Nobody I guessed because Barcelona was favorite to win the game since they're playing from home. Inter Milan should not be underrated, they got what they need to draw points with Barcelona. Now let's see if they can eliminate Barcelona when they host them in San Siro next week. This is a very crucial game for Diego Simeone to win.

Barcelona is a very good team but they are completing with a strong team like them. Inter is not an easy team they are very strong and that is why they drew 3-3 with Barcelona in the recent match. However they have another chance to reach the final by beating Inter. Since both teams are on equal score so Barcelona still has a big chance. The next match is on the 6th. If they can show their performance on that day then they can play in the final. On the other hand their final competitor can be PSG because they are a good team and are already leading by 1 goal so it will be very challenging for Arsenal in the next match to recover this gap and score more goals to qualify for the final. So I am predicting that the final match can be Barcelona vs PSG. And maybe Barcelona can win there and become the champion. Now it is only a matter of time

Your prediction is very similar to mine. If Barcelona can reach the final then they have the ability to face any team they play against. Because they have Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and some other players who play very well. Their style is possible to win matches. So if they win the upcoming match and qualify for the final then it is definitely expected from them that they will definitely be able to take the championship trophy. Because PSG or Arsenal teams do not have good players like them. so Barcelona is the first choice in my prediction too. Otherwise PSG can achieve the trophy

I hope the second leg will be interesting and enjoyable as the first leg.

Barcelona is indeed a tough club but it must be admitted that Inter Milan performed stunningly in this match, a beautiful goal scored by Marcus Thuram in the early minutes surprised the entire stadium, this cannot be separated from the beautiful pass from Dumfries who spearheaded the beautiful goal, still in the first half Inter Milan added another goal from Dumfries. However, it didn't take long for Barcelona to catch up by scoring 2 goals which still took place in the first half, Barcelona is extraordinary, has an unbeatable champion mentality, despite being 2 goals behind, the players did not give up until they managed to catch up, then in the second half Inter Milan and Barcelona again penetrated each other's goals until the score became 3-3 and finally the score stayed balanced until the end of the match.

While we will all agree that Inter Milan played a good football against Barcelona, we should also understand that they did not do their best. When Barcelona was able to equalize the first two goals they scored, they lost their momentum which gave Barcelona the edge to push more. But I still praise them because Barcelona is quite in better form than Inter Milan and I think Barcelona is a better coached team than Inter Milan. Inter Milan has been brilliant but the momentum is gradually dropping, but in the next meeting, they are obviously going to fight till the end.

The next round of the champions League will be very interesting for both Barca - Inter and Arsenal - PSG. There are no favourites.

[IceLincoln]

Im just watching the odds for the next Champions league winner
The favorite according to them is PSG, followed by Barcelona Arsenal and for last team Inter.

Do you really think Inter is not the favorite against Barca next week=?

They tied in Spain and now they will play in Italy, I have my doubts.

Because they were able to knock out the best performing side in the champions league competition (Liverpool) I have always thought they'd and should be the favorites for that trophy.  They don't just have a good manager but also a great squad and special players who can help them lift it. I don't want Barcelona to qualify, I'm certain Inter Milan can get a win against Barcelona at home. It's still a 50/50 without being biased. I expect a Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan finals..

I’ve always told my friends that Inter were too underrated, nobody is even considering them until they shocked every one at Barcelona, though I think they’re unlucky as the away goals rule counts no more, imagine scoring 3goals away and it’s nothing, it would have placed them on a pedestal and a more tough quest for Barcelona.
However the finals is still open for anyone, I think the better chanced are PSG and Barcelona. PSG is as intense as Arsenal and more clinical and the barça Inter first leg was just a lucky feat for Inter, we can say it’s strategy but how often does it work, Barcelona on the other hand were more creative and fluent in their play and have skilful players. Though Football is all about the final results, this Barcelona team has shown they are ready to fight for any competition they’re in, the drive and the hunger is there.
Let’s see how it goes, May the Best team or Strategy Win

You know what, I think Arsenal just had a mental breakdown   they have so much pressure on their shoulders such that their Champion's league slot isn't yet secured after today's loss..and during the week the have to face a PSG side that will cook that Rice for Dinner  

Arsenal as always, poor finishing 😭 am just hoping they don't have injuries on their lineup going into the battlefield.

Defeats are inevitable, that I know for sure. Arsenal losing and Paris Saint-Germain defeats rises how curious I am today. What do we expect from these clubs? They both lost today and we should expect more magnificent performance from them. Mikel Arteta and Luis Enrique are capable managers, they're dining for big winning in the UCL second leg. I'm going to place wagers on both teams to score.

Maybe you're right! Or maybe Arsenal is mainly focusing on their upcoming Champions League match?
At this point, it's no longer possible for them to win the Premier League, and they have a 7-point lead over the sixth-placed team.
With only a few games left in the season, they can afford to drop some points and concentrate on the more important match.

It was very obvious in the first leg that Inter stamina was faltering and gave Barcelona players momentum to control the ball longer. Inter first goal clearly gave a little shock, so that Barcelona back line was under pressure. However after being able to equalize then Inter second goal and so on until Raphinha kick became the equalizer 3-3 Inter began to tire. In my opinion the stamina of the players determined why Barcelona was able to continue to maintain the rhythm of the game.

Let's see if things will work out as you said; if not, Arsenal winning against PSG at home is going to be a difficult thing to happen, although it's football, and I’m also hoping to see that happen. Just that I’m curious because we already saw what happened at Arsenal's home when PSG came; they failed to utilise the advantage of being at home to win against PSG.

That’s why I’m wondering how difficult the second leg will be for them. You are right; since they won against Real Madrid, they have confidence. Instead of using the same energy for PSG, they failed because, obviously, things did not go as they played against Real Madrid.

It's true that Arsenal winning with Real Madrid's will act like a boost of their confidence but you have to consider also that PSG has a very strong home records of winning in the champions league season.

Ousmane Dembélé hamstring injury creates a disadvantage for PSG , but I hope he will perform in 2nd leg also. PSG controlled the early stage in previous match despite of being away match. Theis works like charm while Arsenal couldn't make it.

Betting Odds are also in favour of PSG, although it's a football match anything can be happened. But over turning on UEFA champions league in home-leg is rare. Hope we will se the best performance from Arsenal

Hmmm, that's true!!!
PSG home ground streaks are much better, but unfortunately Ousmane Dembele injury is a big blow for them because the whole PSG team is so reluctant to him. Arsenal will be trying hard to get the comeback and if they see any opportunity to score. So beyond any, they will never hesitate to grab it. So I think PSG needs to be careful otherwise, only one goal can cause a concern for them because there is only one goal difference in terms of aggregate rules.

But anyway, it is obvious that PSG is the more favored candidate for winning the second leg but if Arsenal used all of their best efforts, then maybe they could make a comeback, like if they stopped PSG attack and built a good play, then there would be a possibility for a comeback. Gunners have good build up skills....

Arsenal and PSG and fighting to make it to the finals and win the trophy because none of them have won the trophy before and they need to for the first time after coming this far in the champions league. I am not underrating any team in the semifinals now, they all have equal chances of making it to the finals and winning the champions league trophy. The best is yet to come in this UCL and I’m anticipating for more intriguing games ahead.

I am not expecting too much excitement from PSG vs Arsenal match. Where the fun, thrill and excitement lies will be in Barcelona vs Inter match in San Siro. I am expecting the match to be a do or die affair, because both teams have the same chance of qualifying to the finals. This second leg will be more interesting than the finals because any of them that can make it to the finals will definitely win the cup.

This match will be the most interesting one in the champions league semifinals second leg but that’s not to say that any team that wins here will win the champions league finals regardless of who they meet in the finals between PSG and Arsenal. We may even see a more tougher finals than what we see in the semifinals. The draw in the first leg is really making it very hard to see then team that will make it to the finals. We just have to wait to see what each team has in stock for us to see them qualify for the finals.

I don’t really know how the champions league match will be, but I know it’s going to be difficult for Arsenal to win, PSG is having higher chances to win the match because they are already ahead of Arsenal, because they won them first leg which was played.

Arsenal performance is always dropping at the end, the same set of players that will be playing against PSG in the next champions league match played against Bournemouth today, and Arsenal couldn’t win them, if Arsenal cant win Bournemouth, then how will they be able to win PSG? I just hope PSG won’t also end up performing poorly against Arsenal in the second leg of match, since they are already ahead of Arsenal with a goal, then they should try and win in the second leg, and if they can’t win, then they should just try and play draw.

What mental break down? 
Arsenal have not been so good for most parts of the season, especially with the finishing, and even the fans know that. Those two surprising wins vs Real Madrid got some boys suddenly exited and forgot Arsenal's long-standing problem and now after a couple more games, it's just Arsenal at its default all over again.

If PSG bottle up the second leg even with Dembélé's absence, that's on them.

I wouldn't say that Inter didn't do their best, they managed to draw 3-3 against Barcelona, in their stadium, what else were they supposed to do? I'm pretty sure that not even Inter fans would expect their team to leave Spain unbeaten. Inter are very solid but playing against this Barcelona is difficult for everyone, if I were an Inter fan I would be super happy with the result and the performance.

It would have been nice to know which team you support  . Can't really read between the lines if your are criticising these guys, or it's you showing sympathy for the boys

All in all, let's not take anything away from the boys..they have put a great show this season as it's not easy to get into the Semis!

Oh boy, Dembele doing some routine stuff...injured 🤕

Yeah, that's a very logical explanation right now. Arsenal is now in very deep pressure. They had lost their very golden chance by losing on their home ground, which is very disappointing. But I think they still have the chance to make it. Arsenal got the firepower for attacking, Saka, Ødegaard, and Havertz are there to overturn the match.

Although PSG have the advantage of being on their home ground, they still have a weak point in defence. I hope Arsenal can withstand it and make it their favour. We will all see in the next game. It's football so nothing is impossible.

Barcelona are formidable team, built with young players and having a genius as coach.

They certainly have all the cards on the table to be able to bring the result.
It is very true that we are at the end of the season, but there is still a remote possibility that they will not be able to obtain everything.
There are many factors that could overturn the prediction (I am also of your theory) also I am rooting
for Barcelona.
But in football everything is truly unpredictable, but trying to make a bet on Barcelona's victory is a "risk" that is worth it.

To reach the final, Barcelona must be able to score first because if Inter takes the lead first, the match will be very boring because the players will focus more on defense than looking for additional goals. Barcelona, ​​who have been very consistent so far, must be able to suppress every attack from Inter. They must prevent conceding 3 goals in the first leg to make it easier for them to win the Treble Winner this season.
I really hope Barcelona and PSG will qualify for the final because it will be the most special game for Hansi Flick and Luis Enrique who are trying to achieve the Treble Winner with different clubs. Guardiola has previously done this with Barcelona and Man City.

If we look at the whole thing, Inter Milan should be slightly favored in the second leg because Inter Milan will play at home, but on the other hand, we can also see that Barcelona's strength is slightly better and what happened in the first leg so that Barcelona could not win the match at home was inseparable from the luck factor that was not on their side.
So even so, I still favor Barcelona in the second leg to be able to qualify for the final.

And for the other semifinals, PSG is also highly favored to be able to reach the final, a win in the first leg will make it very easy for PSG who will play at home in the second leg.

Inter Milian went to Barcelona home and scored 3 goals, infact they could have won that match but Inter Milian defense was poor and couldn't defend very well in that match and that's why they started conceiving goals in a short time. I think Barcelona coming to Inter Milian Home will definitely not be an easy one for Barca team's because the 3:3 draws from their previous encounter was a mistakes and this time, Inter Milian have been giving enough time to put their house in Order and will come at full force on Barcelona of which I doubt Barca can keep up. If I am predicting this match,I believe Inter Milian will certainly Win against Barcelona and this will give them a closer step in winning the Chiampions league.

Their defenders tried their best but Barcelona's attack was outstanding they outsmarted Inter Milan's defenders, Di Marco couldn't march Yamal's speed or stop him from creating chances for his teammates to equalize Inter's goals, he was very skillful for Di Marco to mark out, I guess that's why Inter's coach had to substitute him later on, well they tried to play 3-3 at Barcelona's home, that's something Barca should've avoided cause it's their home, if Mhkitaryan's goal was ruled out cause of offside Inter Milan would leading by a goal currently.

 It's their home, they have more advantage and if they defend properly and try to mark out Barca's key players, Yamal and Raphinha then they could win, i won't conclude yet cause Barcelona is also preparing very well, they rested so many players against Valladolid.
