UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[Inwestour]

I won't blame Jose Mourinho for Fenerbahce elimination. Mourinho needs to spend like a full season with Fenerbahce before his team can full implement his pattern of play. It is one thing for a coach to tell his players what to do and another thing is for the players to fully implement what the coach told them.  Mourinho, just moved to the club so they shouldn't expect him to perform magic in a weak squad he inherited. Even if he has brought in players they will still need time to blend to his playing philosophy. One thing I know is that
Fenerbahce will be do well domestically to stand a better chance of playing in Europe next season. I know Mourinho can do this because he has done it several times.

In any case, Fenerbahce was very close to qualifying for the final, they had a lot of desire, mistakes in the first match, when they couldn't hold on to a draw, were fatal for them. They played better in the home match, but Lille paid a lot of attention to defense and it was very difficult to score against such a dense defense, Dzeko, by the way, played another match very uncertainly.

And of course, the penalty was very controversial, the defender removed his hand, and after it there was another defender and a goalkeeper, probably the referee didn't watch the Euro.

I thought Fenerbahce would qualify for the next round. But Fenerbahçe's players learned from the mistakes of the first match. Also, I expected more organized gameplay from Fenerbahce players. But Mourinho has not been able to stabilize the team yet. Even though Fenerbahce's squad is quite strong, we are not seeing the expected performance from them.

However, Lille's players played very well in both matches. The team won the first match as well. In the second match as well, Lille's players are trying to dominate the match. A lot of powerful attacks were also made by Lille's players.

Nothing stopping Real Madrid from adding this trophy to their number of UEFA Super Cup trophies. Atlanta is conspicuously a no match for the real madrid squad. For those who are not comfortable with the odd size given to Real Madrid for a straight win I will implore you guys to opt for a BTS because the chances of Atlanta scoring a goal is feasible in that game even though they won't win the game. I think K. Mbappe is going to be the most happiest real madrid player tomorrow after they must have won the trophy which would be the beginning of his European trophy series in his career.

Yes true no doubt but we might want to give it a second thought that Atalanta is no small team too, they didn't make it that far by luck they had to go through alot of teams by winning to get to that stage and so did Realmadrid.
Alhough one is much more harder to pass than the other but nevertheless I still think the game won't be an easy one for either Realmadrid or Atalanta on the other hand , it's game anything can happen   and I don't doubt

Okay, maybe I was too rigorous and limiting on Atlanta team and didn't give them that recognition on how they fought through to get to this point. Interestingly they are a team known for its strong defense at the back but measuring up with their opponent there's no area they are at parallel with real madrid except luck runs in their favour on this game.

Real Madrid team has inducted a new star striker into their squad in the person of Mbappe, and am sure that the striker will want to begin from this very game to prove his worth by giving them this trophy, and even the entire Madrid squad will want same thing for Mbappe knowing fully that this is going to be his first European trophy and would mean so much to him. It's on this basis I took in the strong conviction that real Madrid are definitely going home with the trophy and nothing less.

[Nheer]

Now the Real Madrid president's dream has come true, he has wanted to bring Mbappe from PSG for a long time, but they managed to get the talented young player this season for free. Mbappe arrival will complete the puzzle in Real Madrid squad, although he is very experienced in destroying the opponent's defense and has a very high goal-scoring instinct, but the role of other players cannot be underestimated. They play as a team, not individuals, so solid teamwork is needed to maintain their best performance. Hopefully Vinicius will not be bothered by Mbappe's presence because he has always wanted to be the number one player in the squad led by Ancelotti, and he must consider Mbappe as a colleague, not a competitor.

Bringing in Mbappe will definitely make the coach to have sleepless nights thinking of the best possible way to manage all the players and bring out the best in them as he did last season. We all know that Vinicius and Mbappe both play from same wing and they are both important players to the team so figuring out how to use them can be challenging, Mbappe can also play as striker but most time loves to operate from the wing, Vinicius on the other hand can only manage on the Left wing. It might be a tough one for Ancellotti but i believe he will figure it out and we will see a more aggressive squad this time around.
The success of the team as been a collective effort of all the players so Mbappe’s arrival won’t change anything at all, all players will be as important and will contribute greatly to the team success once again.

Fenerbahçe really deserved to qualify for playoff round by that performance honestly. I couldn't count how many goal opportunities they wasted. Especially those shots coming back from the goal post was sad to see. 

I don't think the penalty decision was wrong. Yeah, the defender was trying to stick his hand to his body but he couldn't do it in time. When the ball hit his hand, his arm wasn't still next to his body. But I wish Lille weren't able to get such an easy opportunity after getting a red card. We clearly see Lille aren't very ready for the new season either. But their next opponent is going to be easier than Fenerbahçe as far as I can remember. So I assume they would reach league phase.

[Sg4j1n3ll0]

you have to pay attention to Atalanta and what they pay attention to, they are a very difficult team, not everyone has understood this and they continue to underestimate them, they have excellent players and could also do harm to renowned teams like Real Madrid

Paying attention in what? here's the lineup from both teams.

As you can see Real Madrid will use all of their best players, look at the front line, every teams will scared if they see these guys. While Atalanta, their striker i.e. Retegui is a new player for Atalanta lol, his first match is against the best team, I'm sure he will lost his confidence.

in my opinion, given that he underestimates Atalanta's potential and he has demonstrated this to you more than once, regarding Real Madrid, let's say that for them it is as if they had already won it, they feel confident, in case Atalanta succeeds we will come talking about it here

Since the final match of the UEFA Super Cup, there is extreme frenzy in the Real Madrid camp. Because they have one of the best attacking divisions in the world right now. The addition of Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid has further boosted their strength. Maybe Mbappe is going to participate in the first match for Real Madrid through the final match of the UEFA Super Cup. Maybe he will have a little more mental pressure in this match because the first match for the new club is still the final match.

We have seen in a news that Real Madrid club has already announced the squad for the UEFA Super Cup final match. Vinicius Junior, Mbappe, Rodrigo, Andric will play as forwards in that squad. Bellingham, Modric as midfielders. Real Madrid coach Ancelotti may go to the final match against Atalanta with a full strength team with the aim of winning the title.

Rangers vs Dynamo Kyiv today match in UEFA Champions League Match of two teams Dynamo Kyiv team performed well after halftime for which Dynamo Kyiv team scored 2 goals to win today's match. The first half of the game saw a lot of hard fighting between the two teams but Rangers team after halftime.  Couldn't play well.

[Solokan]

UEFA super cup match will begin today between Real Madrid vs Atalanta and here is below possible lineup for both teams

Real Madrid (4-3-3): Courtois; Carvajal, Militao, Rudiger, Mendy; Valverde, Tchouameni, Bellingham; Rodrygo, Mbappe, Vinicius

Atalanta (3-4-2-1): Musso; Djimsiti, Hien, Kolasinac; Zappacosta, De Roon, Ederson, Ruggeri; De Ketelaere, Lookman; Retegui

The odds for both teams

Real Madrid @1.49
Atalanta @6.00

Obviously Real Madrid is the favourite but i expect Atalanta can't be easily beaten and they can put Real Madrid in trouble however there is no extra time in this match and if both teams playing draw until match ended then the match will be continue through an penalty shootout

I can't wait to see their match and it will definitely be an exciting match because of course in this match we will see fierce competition because they are fighting for the championship title, most recently Real Madrid won the Champions League title and now Real Madrid definitely wants to add to their collection of championship titles.

I'm sure many of us want to see Mbappe's appearance because he is a new player at Real Madrid and of course there are many who want to see his performance with Real Madrid and of course we will see whether Lookman will be a hero like when he competed in the European Cup final or not, but what is clear is that Lookman will definitely fight his best to win that match.

If Ancelotti uses the 4-3-3 strategy used against Atalanta I think it is very suitable because of course Real Madrid's defense must be stronger because when the enemy attacks it will make it easier for Real Madrid's defenders if there are many defenders and of course if Real Madrid's front player, of course, don't ask again because he is definitely strong. So I agree that Ancelotti uses that strategy.

However, if Gasperini uses a 3-4-2-1 formation, of course that will also be very good because by using that strategy I am sure it will make Atalanta's attacks stronger and Gasperini will definitely do his best to make Atalanta win.

Yes, Real Madrid will definitely be the team that is favored to win because Real Madrid has many star players who of course have great potential to make Real Madrid win. Yes, we'll see their match later and it will definitely be a shame if we don't see it.

[Catenaccio]

We have seen in a news that Real Madrid club has already announced the squad for the UEFA Super Cup final match. Vinicius Junior, Mbappe, Rodrigo, Andric will play as forwards in that squad. Bellingham, Modric as midfielders. Real Madrid coach Ancelotti may go to the final match against Atalanta with a full strength team with the aim of winning the title.

I don't care about rumor and 11 chosen players can be fixex shortly before the match and it is like one hour or a little bit longer than that. I don't know the exact deadline to submit 11 chosen players for a match and Atalanta will have their own plans to cope with Real Madrid no matter what rumor is so far.

Real Madrid have many star players and they are stronger than Atalanta on the paper but Atalanta will enjoy this Super Cub match as it's hard for an average club like them to have chance to play Super Cup match. Win or fail will be known at the end of match, after the final whistle but when the match starts, Atalanta players will begin it with confidence about themselves after beating Leverkusen and lifting UEFA Europa League title months ago.

If you look at the statistics, Fenerbahce deserved to qualify, they did not waste the opportunities they had, it's just that luck has not been on this team's side, and I salute Lille's goalkeeper, in last night's match he made many brilliant saves, as well as Lille's defense line which was very disciplined in maintaining the depth of its squad.

yes, many disagree with the referee who gave the penalty, it was an unintentional handball in the sense that the defender did not really intentionally block the ball.
but we can't blame the referee, all decisions have different points of view and considerations,
and congratulations to Lille who qualified for the next round

I'm probably also inclined to think that such a penalty should not have been given at the end of the match, it was a referee mistake, and the handball was unintentional, but the decision has already been made. Nobody said that Fenerbahce would be easy, and they had enough moments when they should have scored, so as not to give the referee the opportunity to decide the fate of this match.

I liked the game Rangers - Dynamo, a very dynamic game, the ball almost did not stay in the middle of the field, and the teams very quickly went on the attack. The first half was difficult for Dynamo, but after the red card for Rangers, Dynamo became more active, and scored two goals towards the end of the match. Now Dynamo will have to play Salzburg, and this opponent is definitely not easier than Rangers were.

Hopefully Vinicius will not be bothered by Mbappe's presence because he has always wanted to be the number one player in the squad led by Ancelotti, and he must consider Mbappe as a colleague, not a competitor.

Yes, Fiorentino Perez's dream has now come true after a long wait and of course Fiorentino Perez is happy because his dream has come true and of course the Real Madrid fans are also happy because of course the arrival of this star player will certainly make Real Madrid an even stronger club. But yes, the role of other players cannot be underestimated because of course before Mbappe arrived, the Real Madrid players were very good, which is why Real Madrid successfully won LaLiga and UCL.

Of course I also hope like you, I hope that the presence of Mbappe at Real Madrid will make cooperation between players even better because of course if there is no cooperation and you only care about yourself, the team's performance will decline. but I'm sure that Vinicius will play well and I'm sure that Mbappe's presence will not make Vinicius feel like he's being rivaled and I also hope that Mbappe's presence can make Vinicius and his other friends exchange experiences which will ultimately make all players good.

Of course, one of Ancelotti's tasks is to make Real Madrid more advanced, namely by ensuring that there is no competition between players. because if there is competition between players, of course that is very dangerous for the progress of the Club.

[ajanwalker]

I watched the Fenerbahçe match yesterday, but I was truly devastated. Two balls hit the post and the Lille goalkeeper made good balls.
However, I don't understand why the players of a team like Lille were constantly lying on the ground. As soon as they saw the slightest opportunity, they lay down and did not get up, trying to run out the time.
The referee allowed the players' behavior and neither gave proper extension nor warned these players.
In particular, at least five minutes passed while the review of Lille's penalty was a player's joy, but the referee added two minutes to extra time.
At the last minute, Cenk Tosun's header hit the crossbar. Luck has never been on Fenerbahçe's side.
There is a situation, Fenerbahçe can achieve better results in the UEFA Europa League. Like quarter finals, semi finals...

[adultcrypto]

I won't blame Jose Mourinho for Fenerbahce elimination. Mourinho needs to spend like a full season with Fenerbahce before his team can full implement his pattern of play. It is one thing for a coach to tell his players what to do and another thing is for the players to fully implement what the coach told them.  Mourinho, just moved to the club so they shouldn't expect him to perform magic in a weak squad he inherited. Even if he has brought in players they will still need time to blend to his playing philosophy. One thing I know is that
Fenerbahce will be do well domestically to stand a better chance of playing in Europe next season. I know Mourinho can do this because he has done it several times.

In any case, Fenerbahce was very close to qualifying for the final, they had a lot of desire, mistakes in the first match, when they couldn't hold on to a draw, were fatal for them. They played better in the home match, but Lille paid a lot of attention to defense and it was very difficult to score against such a dense defense, Dzeko, by the way, played another match very uncertainly.

It is obvious that Jose Mourinho is truly facing hard luck in his career as a coach. This early exit of Fenerbahce from the champions league is a huge blow to his career and seemingly justify the decision of As Roma to relief him of his job. It would have been nice if he succeeded in qualifying for the champions league where he stand a chance of exposing his new club to European tournament and boast his career as a coach. He has the only option of the Turkish Super League now and it will not be an easy one for him.

[emrecemsan]

Mourinho lost in the qualification phase in European competitions for the first time in his career. It must be feeling awful.    Especially losing like that after trying so hard in the 2nd leg...

They are missing a really good amount of money given even only for league phase qualification too. Considering they have spent some good sum of money on transfers, it would be helpful for them.


_{Source: https://www.givemesport.com/football-champions-league-prize-money/}

Mourinho has lots of work to do. I mean Fenerbahçe has a really good squad normally. But the important thing is for Mourinho to start making his system work smoothly. It would take him some more time obviously.

[rendravolt]

There were so many goals rained in the second leg of the qualifying round last night and perhaps the most memorable was Qarabag's revenge where they managed to send Ludogrets home with a score of 2-7. The first meeting resulted in a victory for Ludogrets when they were the away team at Qarabag's home and vice versa when it was Ludogrets' turn to host, Qarabag immediately paid off the debt with a not insignificant number of goals.

Another match between FSCB and Sparta Prague was no less exciting because the score ended 2-3 with a narrow victory for Sparta Prague. In fact, in the first leg Sparta Prague had difficulty winning and in front of their fans they only drew against FSCB. The match almost ended in a draw but from the start Sparta Prague had been ahead with 3 goals and although FSCB managed to score a second goal in the final minutes, it could not change the final result where Sparta Prague won with an aggregate of 3-4.

It is surprising to see Ancelotti using Modric at the beginning of the match and Mbappe is at centre of their attacking system. This position will reduce danger of Mbappe a lot but maybe Ancelotti needs more time to find a best position for Mbappe in Real Madrid. They still don't have a good striker and it is properly to use Mbappe at this position for now.

In future, if they find a good striker, Mbappe will use at swings where he is able to show his best but this means Rodrygo will face with risk of losing his position. Vinicius Junior has a solid position in Real Madrid and will not lose it to either Mbappe or Rodrygo.

Atalanta will not feel fearful by looking at Real Madrid debut squad for this match. They are mentally strong enough as they already shown in the final match months ago against Bayer Leverkusen.

Rangers vs Dynamo Kyiv today match in UEFA Champions League Match of two teams Dynamo Kyiv team performed well after halftime for which Dynamo Kyiv team scored 2 goals to win today's match. The first half of the game saw a lot of hard fighting between the two teams but Rangers team after halftime.  Couldn't play well.

It was a match in the qualifying session which was actually not very interesting to watch even though the winner will also play in the Champions League later. And the less interesting thing here is that the teams that competed were not big teams like some teams that have directly qualified for the Champions League without having to go through the qualifying path such as Rangers and Dynamo Kyiv and I am also not sure that the teams that entered the Champions League through this path can do more in the Champions League this season.

I think I watched a podcast of how ancelotti was saying that mbappe playing upfront is still a tactical move for because he said almost all the players upfront switch their position and understand each other and he also made reference to vini and Bellingham who sometimes switch their position and often make the swap from the left to right and sometimes even in the middle and I believe that's what mbappe and vini will be doing upfront.
