UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[Joy- maker]

Manchester city and Napoli match first half just ended few minutes ago and both teams are still playing very well, despite Napoli having a red card and now down to 10 men the team is still holding ground, Manchester city has tried several attempts to score goals, but Napoli defenders and  goalkeeper stayed very strong which is very impressing. Here are just few things I can say about this first half that just ended, so let's wait for the second half to come, since we don't know how both teams will perform in the second half, but am projecting Manchester city to win this match between them and Napoli, because Manchester city is really pushing forward and they are showing the potential of winning this match between them and Napoli. So what do you guys think?

Galatasary inconsistent form has started again in the champions League going down 3:1 in the first half of this game is what I didn't expect, with the quality of players that Galatasary has brought to the team I expected that Galatasary will put up a stronger performance with or without oshimen I expect that Galatasary will put up a better show. This is a very bad result Galatasary is even playing well but there defense line is really bad conceeding three goals in less than twenty minutes.

Leverkusen are a disappointment against Copenhagen so far... Still 1-0 behind. I don't understand one thing.

You can score another goal and beat Frankfurt by 3-1 while you are even one man down. But you really can't even have the control of the game against a weaker opponent? Interesting...

By the way what do you say about Frankfurt - Galatasaray?    I feel like Frankfurt won't lose and a draw is quite likely.

Leverkusen came from behind to draw the game and I won't lie, when they equalized I was low-key expecting them to win the game as they were known to do during the time of Xabi Alonso but a point is better than a loss so it's something.

Frankfurt are surprisingly beating Galatasaray who are champions league regulars and I must say I didn't see this score line happening, not especially when Galatasaray were the ones to take the lead early on. I don't want to sound pessimistic but I don't see the Turkish giants coming back from this one.

Galatasaray actually started better than expected, but they fell apart before the first half ended. They conceded two goals in extra time. The momentum is now with Eintracht Frankfurt. Galatasaray must prevent the gap from widening and fight for a point with a possible goal. But things look very difficult. Eintracht Frankfurt must score a fourth goal to seal the deal. If Icardi comes on in place of Barış, Galatasaray will be more effective in attack.

Napoli captain has been red carded due to a foul on Erling Haaland from a counter-attack, the one man short impact on Napoli has given Manchester City a more possession of the ball, they are now with big chance of winning this match with the pressure on Napoli.

Newcastle x Barcelona has been an excellent game from this far but Newcastle has had many goals chances above what Barcelona. The home advantage is another influence on Newcastle exhibition which has made this match and equal challenge in the first half.

That's why am surprised that in the statistics, Barcelona had more possession than Newcastle when clearly Newcastle were the ones mounting pressure and creating chances to score more than Barca. The first half has been nothing but excellence between the both teams, Newcastle performance so far has shown that they are not a pushover club or a mediocre club, they've been very consistent with the attack upfront, if not for the fact that most of the attackers have not been able to convert the chances trust me it will have been 2-0 by now.

Manchester City dominated Napoli in the first half, but they couldn't score a goal against Napoli because of Napoli defensive football. I thought that the bookmakers made a big mistake in giving Barcelona big odds to win against Newcastle United, but for Barcelona not yet to score a goal against Newcastle United, I now believe the bookmakers didn't make a mistake with the odds they gave Barcelona.

Eintracht Frankfurt finished the first half leading 3-1 against Galatasaray. Galatasaray made a strong start, scoring in the 8th minute through Yunus Akgün, which was a good start. Barış Alper Yılmaz then had an opportunity, but he misplaced a shot. Eintracht Frankfurt took control in the second half, and they're two goals up, and they'll maintain that lead. Had Barış Alper Yılmaz scored that goal, the first half result could have been very different

[Umulala-alala]

The best option to play in this game is both teams to score because both Manchester City and Napoli are good when it comes to scoring of goals I see a competitive match tonight, but in the games going on tonight nice  game for club brugge as they totally demolished Monaco 4:0 is a very wide margin this just goes to show how well club brugge has improved.

The match is underway and I think it's going to be an extraordinary game. KDB is back at the Etihad Stadium, but not to return to Man City, rather to face them as an opponent in this match. So far, Man City has been quite dominant in this match, but they have not been able to break through Napoli's defense. So the score is still 0-0 for now. However, Napoli is currently at a disadvantage as they have to play with 10 men after Lorenzo received a red card in the 21st minute.

Meanwhile, shifting to the other team, the score in the Galatasaray match is currently 1-0 in favor of Galatasaray. And I predict that Galatasaray will win this match.

The red is now an advantage for Man city to win Napoli there is more pressure on Napoli and they are also trying hard to keep the score line is goal less draw but i don't believe that Napoli can defend till the end i have this confident that Man city will win.
Galatasaray couldn't hold their 1-0 lead they are now losing 3-1 i believe they have lost this one they are only good in their league matches but the champions league is a different one.

A very tensed first 45 minutes for Barcelona and Newcastle. Newcastle created quite a few chances but was unable to utilize them properly in order to find the back of the net. Barcelona goalkeeper denied them those chances. On the other hand, Barcelona is still struggling to find the back of the net because Newcastle is making it difficult for them due to their tight defense formation.

They did utilize their chance, Barcelona keeper actually saved more than two important attempts(I’m  sired you noticed that aswell from your comment).. others were also blocked by the defenders but so far, Newcastle seem good with their counter attacks..
Also I think they do have advertage of tall players so I guess Barca just have stop trying too much long crosses, it just might not work.

I agree with you, because Elanga had two beautiful chances which was stopped by Joan Gracia. Lewandowski also had two good chances too but was blocked. The second half is playing out in the same pattern of the first half because Newcastle has started pressuring Barcelona defense looking for that perfect chance to break the deadlock.

Wow... Marcus Rashford has scored his first goal for Barcelona in the Champions League on the 58th minutes with a sharp header to put Barcelona ahead of their host. Newcastle 0-1 Barcelona.

Same thing they did in the Europa league last season when they lost 4:1 to AZ Alkmar. Galatasaray spent a lot of money in the transfer window just to sign players that can compete in the Champions League games, but it is very obvious that they can only perform in their domestic league and not in the Champions League games. When they scored first against Eintracht Frankfurt i was like this team will really do well but not until E. Frankfurt equalized and scored 3 goals within an interval of less than 10 minutes that's when i realized that the goal scored by Galatasaray was just an initial impression. On the other hand, E. Frankfurt is a team from the Bundesliga, which is far superior to the Turkish super league, so i understand the reason why they were able to equalize the score and took the lead. The second half is underway, let's see if Galatasaray can score or E. Frankfurt scores more goals.

I was also thinking that Galatasaray would improve their performance in the Champions League this season since they bought some quality players in the summer transfer window, and when they scored an early goal against Eintracht Frankfurt, I was expecting them to defend it if they couldn't score another goal, but it seems it is a norm for Galatasaray to perform poorly anytime they are playing in the Champions League.

Barcelona had some creativity in the first half but couldn't score any goal because Newcastle was also very calculative in making sure that they don't give too many lapses. Seems Barcelona are gaining balance in the second half, Rashford scored and put them ahead. I know that Rashford will get a lot of praises after this game but what we want to see is consistency and not one game on and another game off. If Rashford can perform well in the Champions League games then Hansi Flick can forget about his flops in the la liga. Though in the past at Manchester United when Rashford was still in good form, he used to perform awesomely in European competitions.

This is a dream night for Makus Rashford as he has doubled the score and it's 2:0, what an excellent performance

Mostly in champions league games when Napoli gets to meet top teams they consider tough, they rather defend than trying to go attack and that has been the case with them against Manchester City, they also do make sure to concede very minimal amount of goals too. Some times these bookmakers has got some analytics which you may not be careful enough to notice and sometimes too they may be misleading bit in the case if Barcelona I see it as one of those times they turn out correct.

Games are almost over for today, and some are already ended.
Bayer Leverkusen managed to tie the game, losing against Copenhagen was such a terrible thing to do.

Now the big matches of the day.

Manchester City as expected is beating Napoli, for 2-0
Barcelona is beating Newcasle for 2 nil in an away game.

Galatasaray is losing 4-1 with 2 own goal conceded
To be honest I was expecting more form them

[cande86]

Hey @babo, my friend, how does it feel after getting thrashed 4-0 by Paris Saint Germain? Lol! What goes around comes around!
You got off lightly, because Carnesecchi saved the penalty, otherwise you would have conceded five goals!
But don't worry, they'll forget about it quickly... Just look the other way now.

the only thing missing was that the goalkeeper also scored
I feel very much an Inter fan, even if to be a perfect Inter fan I was missing 1 goal better 5
the colors are the same, black and blue... we are cousins ??if you want

this season is going really shit, it's going to be a disaster lol

It's not a disaster. Unfortunately, Paris Saint-Germain are very strong, and to be honest, Atalanta played well in the first half and came very close to scoring.
So the foundations are there, you just need to find consistency in your results, and I believe you can achieve great satisfactions

Well, yes, they played well but it wasn't enough. I know that PSG is very strong and that Atalanta is absolutely not up to the challenge, but this cup isn't for them.
I'm sorry because it's an Italian team but unfortunately they can't do very well in the Champions League.

I was not certain if Barcelona had a goal on target in that first half to have made that possession beyond Newcastle who had more on ball than their counterpart.

Coming into the second half the game has completely changed with Barcelona having the fun over thier host. Rashford has ushered Barca a 0-2 lead, first with a header-shot and a strike from outside the box. This result is apparent to a different in class between the two clubs.

Manchester City is leading with two goals, while Napoli is still yet to score any goals. City will win this match; with all indications, they are performing very well in this match. Moreover, the match is almost finished, and since they have already scored two goals, they won’t give Napoli any chance of winning the game. They are making everywheretight for Napoli to break through, and I think that is a good thing. Even if they don’t score more goals, they should secure these two till the end of the match.

Barcelona will win this match; the match will soon end, and they are leading already. Although before the start of this match I was expecting either a draw in this match, but unfortunately the influence of being at home did not work for Newcastle, and it is so discouraging for them to lose this match when playing at home. I know Barcelona is a strong team, but when playing with Newcastle and at the same time in their home, there should not be too much of a gap in performance just like this one.

Sorry to say, Man City are leading on 2 goals after first half, Napoli are unable to keep up the defensive play against Man City. Barcelona are also leading Newcastle, the first half wasn't a good time to start judgement.

I was also thinking that Galatasaray would improve their performance in the Champions League this season since they bought some quality players in the summer transfer window, and when they scored an early goal against Eintracht Frankfurt, I was expecting them to defend it if they couldn't score another goal, but it seems it is a norm for Galatasaray to perform poorly anytime they are playing in the Champions League.

Galatasaray conceded 5 goals against Frankfurt, this is a prove that Galatasaray are still having problems in their defense, if Frankfurt are going to be their biggest threat in the opening, imagine facing a more difficult opponent. Galatasaray might not reach were we all looked at after upgrading their squad.

Well with their situation I don't even see them scoring any goal tonight because they are already having a red card in this game and that's why I would say they won't score and if you look at the way Manchester City are already possessing the game and pressuring them then you would know that it's definitely going to be hard for Napoli to make a clear effort at goal. But the truth is that the whole game dynamics changed with the introduction of the red card and I know the situation would have being different if Napoli were complete like their opponent.
