UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[Razmirraz]

As I predicted, Barcelona, PSG, and Inter all won tonight.

The PSG vs. Bayer Leverkusen match was the highest-scoring game of the night. PSG won 7-2.

The result that surprised me the most was the PSV vs. Napoli match.
I didn’t expect Napoli to lose by such a big margin.

The strong teams still dominated the first day of matchday 3 of the UCL, they seemed unstoppable and scored so many goals. A total of 43 goals were scored in the 9 matches played (an average of 4.7 goals per match). PSG was the team that scored the most goals this time, followed by Barcelona and PSV.

Napoli are not as ferocious as last season, their performance is not like a team that has just won the Scudetto. It seems that Conte is still lacking in genius in European competitions, especially in the UCL. Previously, Juventus and Chelsea were also eliminated in the group stage (1 group format, 4 teams). Now Napoli not only lost, but conceded 6 goals in one match.

Despite the red card PSG were still able to dominate the game against Leverkusen and interestingly all the 7 goals scored none came from penalty. Their attacking force seems unstoppable, but I wouldn’t want to underestimate the other top contenders. The journey to the Champions League final is still very long so I think while they are on their way to the defending their title they might face a couple of strong obstacles which we can't say for now how the outcome will turn out.

Both teams were reduced to ten men in the match after each team lost a player to a red card. However, PSG seemed unfazed by this. It was precisely after each team went down to ten men that we saw PSG truly become more aggressive and score more goals.
What we can say about PSG is that they are truly extraordinary. They still seem to be one of the favorites to challenge for the title this season, as well as in the Champions League.
However, the journey is still long, so we never know if any team will stop PSG. However, it would be incredible if PSG could win the title again this season.

In this round, there were indeed some very interesting things that happened in the matches, as well as the results. There were also some quite surprising ones, such as Napoli's 6-2 thrashing by PSV. Even before the red card, PSV had a three-goal lead, and they matched it with another three goals after the red card.

In addition, some other interesting events include:
Fermin Lopes' hat trick
PSG's 7-2 thrashing of Leverkusen, even with both players receiving red cards
Arsenal's four goals were scored in just 13 minutes against Atletico Madrid.

Well, this was a very high-scoring round.

Source: he Champions League was incredible on Tuesday

I didn’t have the opportunity to watch some of the games, but there was some surprised score line, just like games between PSV vs Napoli which ended in 6 vs 2 that is indeed a surprise shoreline, I never expected to see a scoreline like that between Napoli, but when I saw it I immediately thought it was because their was a red card in that game for Napoli which resulted to that result, well Champions League is always full of surprises and there is always a high margin of scoreline.

Barcelona also had a good scoreline in the game in favour of them, But I noticed most of this high scoreline came from the red card in the game which is just something that someone can justify the fact that the score is something unimaginable, Barcelona game was an awful officiating, that was never a red cared for the Olympiacos players, but unfortunately this bigger teams gets a preferential treatment.

Well, almost all the strong teams favored managed to win except Napoli. I think Napoli experienced their worst result in the UCL. Usually, Napoli doesn't lose by this many goals, but now they look like a weak team, which doesn't reflect their reputation as one of the strongest teams in Serie A. In contrast, Inter Milan has been quite consistent every season in the UCL. Inter Milan has always been able to advance to the next stage very well, seemingly without any significant difficulties. Meanwhile, I doubt Napoli will go far. Although there are still many games left, I'm worried they will continue like this.

Napoli's goalkeeper, Milinkovic Savic, in my opinion is simply not good enough for this level. The whole team didn't play well but he conceded some goals that a Champions League goalkeeper is not supposed to concede. And let's not forget that historically Conte and the Champions League don't really get along, he prefers to focus on the Serie A...

There haven't been any major surprises in the Champions League matches played so far, with Napoli's defeat a bit of a highlight. I think that's understandable, as Napoli aren't a favorite in the Champions League overall. It's also true that Napoli's performance this season hasn't been much better than last season, so I wouldn't have high expectations for Napoli this season.

In other matches, I think Arsenal's big win was a bit impressive. I thought Atletico Madrid would put up a tough fight, but Arsenal showed their best performance, allowing them to win this match by a significant scoreline.

[Gaza13]

Arsenal really performed well against Atletico Madrid, winning 4-0. As the home team, Arsenal played very well and certainly gave their fans a great gift. Now Atletico Madrid must admit that Arsenal is stronger than them, because the 4-0 score clearly shows that Arsenal is indeed stronger than Atletico Madrid.

Arsenal has now earned 3 points and is currently in 3rd place in the standings, while Atletico Madrid must accept that they are now in 18th place. Of course, many Atletico Madrid fans are disappointed with the team's loss. However, Diego must now work to improve Atletico Madrid so that they can perform better. But fortunately, in this match, I bet on Arsenal's victory. Did you also bet the same as me? However, Arsenal must now strive to develop a better strategy because there are still many matches ahead of them.

I think Arsenal is worth considering this year, as they're a strong opponent and a strong contender for the next round. Arsenal aren't just consistent in their domestic competitions, they've also been crushing their opponents in the Champions League. Many did not expect the score to be quite large, and it seemed that in the match, Atletico was powerless to quell the attacks from various Arsenal lines. This is a major blow for Diego Simeone. Atletico must improve immediately so that his team can recover quickly and maintain the solid performance they have shown previously. Hopefully, from this valuable lesson, Simeone can make his team much better than before.

I predicted that PSG would be without their main team due to injuries and that Leverkusen would win, but PSG fielded a full squad and crushed Leverkusen. I wasn't expecting such a remarkable victory.
I couldn't understand why Leverkusen captain Andrich made such an unnecessary move and received a red card.
This card disrupted the team's rhythm.
Down to 10 men, Leverkusen missed a penalty through Grimaldo, but last man Zabarnyi was also shown a red card in the 37th minute.
This time, Garcia scored the penalty, making the score 1-1.
What impressed me most about the match was PSG's ability to capitalize on every opportunity they had and create a winning score.
A. Garcia scored a magnificent goal from long range. The camera in front of the goal enhanced the beauty of the lake.
PSG had predicted this, but they pulled off a beautiful victory.

PSG team came into the match with full points in their previous two matches, were far ahead of Leverkusen and they should be commended for the excellent performance they showed. Having had beated Barcelona in their previous match in the UCL, they were expected to be more aggressive and they did just that. The goal difference in the first half was 4-1 which encourage more goals, the number of goals increased in the second half and finally the match ended with a 7-2 goals. All the great moments of the match and two goals from Désiré Doué put PSG in a great position. To maintain this consistency Luis Enrique will have to be more tactical thats they applied in this match.

In my opinino, Antonio Conte needs to do more in terms of transitioning is team to an attacking one. The team just looks too flat in their 2 games in the champions league.

[Jatiluhung]

In all of last night's matches, I don't think there were many surprises, except for Napoli's devastating defeat and Atletico Madrid's completely unexpected defeat. How could Atletico Madrid not even score a single goal in those matches? As for the other matches, I think they were quite satisfying. All my favorite teams also won.

And I hope today's matches are more predictable. My favorites are Galatasaray, Chelsea, Bayern, and Liverpool. I'm still unsure about the other matches, except hoping both teams score in the Madrid vs. Juventus and Monaco vs. Tottenham matches.

Are you being serious?
Napoli losing emphatically is not a surprise?
This Napoli might not be the favourite to win this year uefa champions league trophy, but they should be putting teams like psv to the sword not the other way round.

, I think Arsenal's big win was a bit impressive. I thought Atletico Madrid would put up a tough fight, but Arsenal showed their best performance,

Kudos to arsenal they really tried, I never expected such a result from them, I expected it to be a close contested affair but to my surprise, arsenal were way too strong for them. It's a massive winning that will boast the confidence of  this arsenal team to greater things if they can be consistent.

In fact, I've recently noticed that Napoli has always lost their mentality when playing away from home.
Another thing that makes things worse is that Napoli has to play with fewer than 11 players, which puts pressure on Napoli, forcing them to concede more goals and suffer defeats.
That's a very good reason to say that Napoli's performance seems to be declining, but if Napoli were playing with 11 men, the situation would be different.

In contrast, Inter Milan, with more experience in the Champions League, always knows how to maintain consistency and win every match.

It was a goal harvest yesterday in the Champions League. The only game that ended in a draw is the match between FC Kairat and and Pafos FC. Kazakhstan Premier League side failed to take advantage of the red card that reduced the Cypriot First Division side to ten men. Pafos was able to stand their ground from the fourth minute when Joao Correia was red-carded till the end of the match. They had more ball possession but few shots on target due to poor attacking display.

I am more concerned about Napoli's heavy losses. Antonio Conte's side lost their last Serie A game when they fell to Torino. The poor performance has now progressed to this heavy loss in the UCL. They were favourites in this game; this loss would make many sports bettors lose money. PSV outclassed them and deserved to win the Serie A defending Champions.  

[TastyChillySauce00]

The result that surprised me the most was the PSV vs. Napoli match.
I didn’t expect Napoli to lose by such a big margin.

Yeah, there is something wrong with Napoli. They're literally the only favorite team who lost tonight. It's such embarrassing result for Conte and his team. Entire players don't look fit in this game. They're also being so clueless what to do the whole game. Things worsen when they have garbage striker who is unable to become a good partner for KDB.
They are also breaking a new record to conceded six goals since 1997. They can't do 4-1-4-1 anymore. Conte needs to change it, otherwise, his club may suffer another worse result.

This must be a wake up call for Napoli and Conte. I hope him give good response over this.

[AHOYBRAUSE]

Damn, Leverkusen getting humbled 7:2 really is tough to see. Don't remember if there was ever a German team that got 7 goals in while playing in the champions league. At least Dortmund made a good match and got the point from Kopenhagen. Those are the games they MUST win if they want to survive. Until now they only played easier teams and they performed. Obviously they threw away the win in Torine when they were up 2 goal going into injury time, but it is what it is. Now they are in a good position going forward when better teams are playing them. Go Dortmund!!!

[davis196]

Leverkusen is not the same team after Alonso left and the best players were sold. Ten Hag is a very incompetent manager. He should be sacked.
Arsenal scored 4 goals for about 14 minutes which is quite an achievement against a strong opponent like Atletico. Gyokeres had luck with the third goal and Atletico missed a good goal opportunity by Julian Alvarez.
Napoli disappointed with their weak defensive play against PSV. I believe that the red card for Lorenzo Luka was a little bit undeserved.
I would bet money on Real Madrid winning against Juventus and Frankfurt and Liverpool ending in a draw. I have a gut feeling that Liverpool would keep failing.

PSV 6 Napoli 2

A truly incredible and unexpected match! PSV practically crushed Napoli with a resounding 6-2 victory.
I'm really happy for PSV, they showed real strength and dominance! I feel sorry for Napoli, though. Such a crushing defeat against a lower-ranked opponent must be hard to swallow! But their coach deserves it! Once again, Antonio Conte blamed others instead of taking responsibility himself! Now the problem is the nine players the club bought for him so he wouldn't cry! But no! He preferred to make a fool of himself in public.

Let's not be surprised by the output of Napoli under Antonio conte in the uefa champions league because over the years, this manager is known to not doing well in the uefa champions league, but I wasn't expecting such a losing from a lower class team like psv, no disrespect to them, but if it was from a team like Bayern Munich or Manchester city or psg that trash them that way, it would have been understandable, but losing In such a manner to psv is unacceptable.

When Jose Mourinho became Benfica's manager, he famously said, "I'm back to my level."

He lost both of his matches in charge of Benfica. Jose still refuses to accept that he's not the Jose he used to be, that he's not his old quality, but the days of him and others like him are long gone.

He will be remembered as someone who received compensation from every club he left. His next stop (if offered) will be the Saudi Arabian League for the money.
