UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[BABY SHOES]

When there are no goals in a match it's boring... Moreover, some bettors were expecting a lot of goals from both teams but in reality they still managed to keep a clean sheet.

There have been a lot of goal opportunities created that still could not be converted into goals, actually seeing this opportunity we are also happy because it is tense, it's just that ending without a goal feels a little different.

Let's just say that both teams are equally strong from both different leagues.

Some games that ended 0-0 are more interesting than yesterday's 9-2, but unfortunately not today's game between City and Inter. The game was about as expected from an 8-game group stage: the teams did not try too hard to score, playing cautiously. The fact that City played by controlling the ball and Inter on the counter-attack was expected, and in fact City had 3 dangerous moments and Inter 2. A semi-friendly game.

Yesterday's match that ended 9-2 was too much... The scorers don't celebrate anymore.

It's not strange that Manchester City always have the ball at home or any match but this UCL match is more difficult for them.

I saw Inter Milan's game didn't decline they gave some deadly counterattacks, still it was saved by their goalkeeper.

I just watched Pep’s post match interview and he says he’s so happy with the team’s performance today. As a fan who wanted to see some action from both sides I do not share the same sentiment with Pep Guardiola. A draw was unexpected but I doubt anyone predicted that Manchester City would not be able to get a goal from this game. I can’t imagine how many people have lost their bets on this game. I’m looking forward to City’s game against Arsenal in the weekend. Hope it meets the expectations of what a big clash should be.

Manchester City inability to get a goal in tonight's Champions League fixture against Inter Milan is a proof that Champions League is quite different from the local leagues. With the fantastic display of Manchester City in the English Premier League, who would have believed that they will play 90 minutes without getting a goal in the Champions League. This is a sign that the season is not over yet, many things could change in the middle of the season both in the Champions League and the respective local leagues in Europe.

Before we draw our conclusions, let us see what Manchester City will be able to do against Arsenal. After then I will watch the post match interview of Pep Guardiola and see if he will also be ok with his boys performance.

Yeah it can't be denied that when a team can't win at home then there should be disappointment it's just that Pep Guardiola doesn't want to say it and I'm sure he has his reasons, but yeah this doesn't really have an impact on Manchester City because it's not a deciding match and they can get points in the next match. This is the first match right? while 7 other matches are waiting ahead. Of the 7 matches, only one match was a bit difficult, against Juventus.

In another match Dortmund managed to win the match even though previously I thought Dortmund would have a bit of difficulty but I was wrong they could win easily even though they were playing away. The challenge for Dortmund is in the next matches as giant teams await them Celtic, Real Madrid, Wolfsburg and Barcelona this is a match that is considered difficult from the remaining 7 matches so Dortmund is a bit doubtful of qualifying unless there is a miracle there.

Here, I also saw how Girona withstood all the brutal PSG attacks, and even though this was very new for them, they did it quite well, it's just that, unfortunately, they did a mistake of that OG.

Well I wouldn't say its really a own goal ( but yes it's a own goal ) the goal was meant to score though it his destiny mended sent It really hard, it's just that it had to go through the keeper to that...
I was really expecting a goal to come out with the way PSG pressed Girona, all they could do was defend over and over,alot of shots from PSG though most were of target but the press was so much , what I don't really liked was thar the OG came from the keeper , they made it looked as I'd he didn't do it well, I wished it cam from one of the players but what can I say , it's just a game

Losing points in the first meeting and they had the opportunity to play it at home was a disappointment that was seen from Pep's gesture but he turned it all around with his words, it was a mental protection for his players who this weekend will play a difficult match, but talking about the City vs Inter match which ended in a goalless draw it is undeniable that this match is a big match because Inter were also a fantastic team last season and they have been able to do it until now, it is not easy to beat them and Man City have tried with the game they are leading but last night it did not produce results.
Surely this match has many failures with bets ending in a winless draw for City, but I think for the next match Man City against Arsenal at home and they have good odds I think I will go back there with this failed bet.

I watched the highlights and it is really unfortunate because the keeper made some decent saves before. That's just the reality of football nowadays, people only remember the terrible mistake that you make instead of your 100 good saves. Then again you can't go far in the UCL if you make one or two mistakes, especially against big teams where you don't have many chances to score goals.

I think they just need to take this lesson and plan better for the next matches. They still have a decent chance to go through, it's only 1 game.

As a manager, one of your primary duties is to protect your players on and off the pitch and that's what Pep Guardiola did with his statement that he was happy with Manchester City's performance. Guardiola we know is one man that loves winning all his games but unfortunately for his team tonight, they couldn't find a way past their visitors Inter Milan.
Talking about people losing their bets, I totally agree with you about that. I doubt up to 15% of people who gambled on the game will predict that Manchester City will not score a goal in that game but it's gambling anyway and sometimes, surprising results are bound to happen

Game day 2 of this week's games didn't produce results we all expected, seeing Salzburg get beat on the road to the point of not getting a goal was unexpected, AC Milan played to a bore draw so did Manchester City which was very unexpected as that's one of those games I thought would have goals with Haaland being in good form, but I guess the Italian teams proved their old ways of being good when it comes to defensive football 👌.

Lets see how today's games will be played, just hoping to see some goals.

I also can't accept that PSG's goal was an own goal, as evidenced by Mendes' powerful shot that Gazzaniga couldn't hold on to even though he almost held on to the ball but it slipped out of his grasp.

Honestly this was a very interesting game between Girona and PSG, PSG's attack was very strong but Gazzaniga was able to block a lot of shots at him and that's what made this game interesting for me, Girona don't seem to have much hope of qualifying from the champions league preliminary round in this way, the quality of their defense must be improved.

This is a sign that the season is not over yet, many things could change in the middle of the season both in the Champions League and the respective local leagues in Europe.

Yann Sommer finished his task very well by maintaining a clean sheet and breaking a goal scoring streak of Erling Haaland who scored 9 goals in 4 Premier League matches and looks to be unstoppable. This draw shows that performance of Inter Milan against Manchester City in Champions League final match two seasons ago was not a sudden good performance from Inter Milan. They actually understood Pep Guardiola and Manchester City well so that they had proper tactics to constrain Manchester City in attacking.

Before we draw our conclusions, let us see what Manchester City will be able to do against Arsenal. After then I will watch the post match interview of Pep Guardiola and see if he will also be ok with his boys performance.

Manchester City are strong but not to a level that is dominating enough for winning all matches and against all opponents. Arsenal is kind of opponent that can earn points from Manchester City.

The most notable match of the day was Manchester City and Inter in the Champions League stages. What was more notable was that Manchester City could not score a single goal. I was expecting a match like this to end with both teams scoring or maybe over. It was not very enjoyable to watch either as the match ended in a draw and there were no goals scored by either team.

I have already expected this to happen. Manchester City struggle to score even a single goal against Intermilan. The worst thing is that to see horrible 90 minutes of low block by Inter Milan. We weren’t playing that bad. We could won it. But i realize Inter is one of the best teams in the world, we can’t just waltz over them.

I was disappointing see we did whole game pass to haaland, and the pass never came to him. But he did what he's supposed to do, but the problem is that City failed to set him up today. Not a good day for him though.

Indeed, overall both teams showed their best game, 1 match wasted was considered a defeat for Inter and Manchester City. Well, Haaland when blocked by Inter defenders was always unable to move freely, seeing the many attempts to kick more than 30 times from Manchester City proved that Inter is indeed solid. Pep Guardiola was actually not satisfied because this first match did not bring his team behind the team that had a goal party yesterday. In my opinion, in the next match Manchester City must be more careful, there are 7 matches left and it will be a pretty tough bet.

0-0 at Manchester City's home was unexpected considering Manchester City's performance in the premier league is very good. It is true that it is still early days and there are many things that can happen with all possibilities.

Before we draw our conclusions, let us see what Manchester City will be able to do against Arsenal. After then I will watch the post match interview of Pep Guardiola and see if he will also be ok with his boys performance.

Pep Guardiola is not only known to me as the coach with the best strategy today among many other great coaches who are still active, but I also know Pep Guardiola as a coach who is good at stringing words together in front of the media crew at every press conference, both before and after.
If the result against Arsenal he will repeat the sentence that he will be happy with the performance of his men, then it can be interpreted the opposite of what he said.

I watched the match between Bologna and Shaktar yesterday and both teams were so incompetent in the last shot that there was no goal in the match and unfortunately my bet lost.

Shaktar missed a penalty in the 4th minute of the first half. Even though both teams found clear positions, the last shots were very bad. In the 2nd half, in Bologna's six-pass position, the striker aimed the shot at the goalkeeper and 99% of the time the goal was missed.

I don't think either team will advance to the next round.
I will bet that whoever Bologna plays away in the next match, their opponent will win the match.
The weakest link in this group is Bologna. Bologna had played 5 matches before this match, with 4 draws and 1 loss.
The team's form is not good.

1 point from a big match against a biggest competitor in the group, is a good result, not bad actually. Both Manchester City and Inter Milan can win most of other matches in this group and move to a next phase. Inter Milan played well and stopped a win streak of Manchester City as well as secured their position and chance to complete this group on top. In a group phase, the importance if finish it with a ticket to move to a next phase and avoid damages from player suspension because of cards and player injuries. It's main priority before considering of a position that can help them having advantage in a next phase.

Pep Guardiola is not only known to me as the coach with the best strategy today among many other great coaches who are still active, but I also know Pep Guardiola as a coach who is good at stringing words together in front of the media crew at every press conference, both before and after.Pep

Pep Guardiola is one of most successful coaches last 20 years but the coach of Inter Milan, S. Inzaghi shown that he is a good coach too and he is good in direct matches against Pep Guardiola. If these clubs re-meet in future, S. Inzaghi will be able to bring other challenges to Pep Guardiola. Other young coaches who rose recent years will be next opponents of Pep Guardiola when Jose Mourinho no longer joined Champions League recent seasons.

Inter Milan learned from their previous defeat to Man City so they played quite neatly and very coordinated. Inter Milan's defense was quite solid in that match and they managed to thwart several chances that Man City tried to create. The draw in that match was very beneficial for Inter Milan because they played at Man City's home so they can play more consistently in the next match.

Halaand failed to be a deadly striker in that match because he didn't get many passes. This happened because Inter Milan's game was much better so Man City had difficulty developing their game. Man City's midfield was also lacking in solidity, making it difficult for them to dominate the match.

UEFA events have never been easy while we are having two quality teams facing each other results like these can happen with Inter Milan done good strategy and never allow Manchester City to bring them under pressure which was big success for them in this game with at the end they are able to have one point which is going to be important in coming rounds.

On papers things were looking completely favourable for the home team, but they were not able to end the deadlock and score goal which is surely the biggest success for the Inter Milan which is having good start of their campaign in this season now this result will be brought pressure on Citizens in coming games because this new format is having good challenging time for the all top teams for having better results in every game.
After the game Pep Guardiola done good job and defend his players as they have done good job, and they have to improve their quality level in coming matches if they want to keep things at the top level.

Lets see how today's games will be played, just hoping to see some goals.

AC Milan suffered a defeat at home against Liverpool, they did not draw, while their city rivals Inter Milan drew against Manchester City last night.
As I predicted earlier, if both clubs were equally strong, they would likely share 1 point, but I did not expect that both Inter Milan and Manchester City couldn't score in this match, even though I bet BTTS, but at first I was a bit hesitant because the odds were 1.80 which I thought was too big.

For other matches today:
* Red Star vs Benfica
* Feyenoord vs Leverkusen
* Brest vs Sturm
* Atalanta vs Arsenal
* Atletico Madrid vs Leipzig
* Monaco vs Barcelona

It is very difficult to determine predictions for these matches because each club wants to get 3 points.
Here are the odds for each club:

Updated Scores From the recently ended Champions League Fixtures!




 Well, I wasn't surprised in the slightest way to see how discipline Inter Milan defenders played yesterday, as they held them down till the last minute of the game. They said Erling Haaland scores for fun in the Premier League Competition but Inter Milan defenders made him look like a joke last night. Could it be because Kevin De Bruyne was out Injured from the game? We'll be seeing a tough game between Manchester City and Arsenal over the weekend and what would that man for Pep Guardiola with the absence of Kevin De Bruyne? I still believe Arsenal defenders Saliba and Gabriel can hold down Erling Haaland yet again!
