UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[GiftedMAN]

There were only about 10 minutes left in the match, and the score was still tied at 2-2. Chelsea looks very eager to get a win in this match, therefore, they continuously put pressure on Qarabag, but what they did seemed to still reach a dead end because Qarabag defended quite well, and their bus parking strategy seemed quite effective in suppressing Chelsea's attacks.

Few minutes to go and Chelsea keep the pressure on. Chelsea are doing everything within their reach to ensure they reap their winning. How on mother's green earth they're drawing this game? Who the hell is Qarabag? I can't believe my eyes because Qarabag are no match for the EPL side considering Chelsea to be the club world champion. I wouldn't blame Chelsea if they draw this game because it's been one hell of a game for them especially on a foreign ground. Enzo Maresca should learn to start players not bringing on B team to face UCL side.

2:2 it ended in the game between Qarabag and Chelsea. Their is the kind of results you get when you underestimate a team before the game simply because you think you have a better squad than the team, you shouldn't be so confident in your team because you sound so much like a Chelsea fan, this is a champions League game teams you see here didn't come to joke that's why you will keep seeing different surprises in the champions League. Chelsea was very lucky to equalize the game in the second half I expected them to lose like Villarreal so that when they face a weak opponent they will take their chances.

Qarabağ and Chelsea couldn't win. The match ended 2-2.
Qarabağ are the surprise team this season. Chelsea entered the match as heavy favorites, but it was Qarabağ who missed out on victory.
Both teams took one point from this match, bringing their total points total to seven.

The other match of the evening produced a surprising result.
Pafos defeated Villarreal 1-0 at home.
I'm surprised that Villarreal hasn't won yet.
How is it that this team is in third place in La Liga?

[Adbitco]

What's happening to Chelsea right now? They are currently losing 2 - 1 even though they were the ones to score first in the early minutes of the game. Qarabag, the underdogs are currently ahead after scoring twice on the night. They would go into the break with a victory, I hope this won't end like this because it will be a big blow to those who already put their money on Chelsea winning this game.

It is already half time I still Believe Chelsea will win the match because they are more inform and strong however if Qarabag has a very strong defense and then decide to defend in the second half throughout the game then Chelsea may have a very big problem in winning the match, and I think Qarabag we now play a very defensive game in the second half because if they don't then Chelsea will score again and again then win the match, well let's see how the second half will be because second half won't be easy.
I was expecting Chelsea to win this match even in the first half and second half but it looks like Chelsea is not really that inform this season, to be honest I'm very surprised that Chelsea is even losing at the first half or let us watch and see if they will come back and win or lose.

Shocking result today from the two early kickoff of today's Champions League matches. Qarabag won the first half which I didn't expect and I'm sure not too many of us expected that as well. Second half and Chelsea were able to avoid a defeat as the played a 2 - 2 draw at FT.

The other result that's shocking and giving me goosebumps is the Pafos Vs Villarreal match, how on earth did Pafos manage to beat Villarreal. Both teams are not of equal strength at least and this should have been an easy win for Villarreal.

[Sexylizzy2813]

Just saw a team that lacks creativity and their defense is nothing to write home about. Honestly I wasn't expecting Enzo to joke with this game in any way, go out their with your best and knock out this Qarabag guys. The host did well, they played more than what I expected because of how low they was rated before the game. My problem is the back line of Chelsea, especially the CB Tosin and Hato, they shouldn't be starting for Chelsea at all, was even expecting Tosin to be the leader in that defense but he wasn't a true leader, now the problem is Enzo Maresca, he'll always use this same players to start crucial games like this, well...it was a good game for Qarabag to get a point against the World Champions.

[Slow death]

It's unbelievable how this Chelsea coach acts in European competitions. He continues to think that the Champions League is the same as the Conference League where he could rotate players. In the Champions League, all teams are strong and you shouldn't underestimate your opponents. Again, he underestimated his opponent and this time things went wrong.



A draw against an opponent they could have easily beaten on paper, earning them 10 points, now puts them at risk. If other teams win, Chelsea will drop in the standings, and things will only get worse. In their next game, Chelsea will play against Barcelona, ​​who will be strong because they'll have all their players available. A Chelsea defeat would cause them to fall significantly in the standings, and then they'll play against Atalanta, which could also cost them points. Now, Chelsea's situation may depend on luck.

You can't say that Enzo Maresca started the game with Chelsea B team, which game is more important than the UEFA Champions league for Chelsea to rest their A team.
Chelsea played with players that are fit for the game unfortunately they couldn't go back home with 3 points but 1 point. Qarabag almost won at home but was disrupted by formal Manchester United player Garnacho who came into the game as a substitute in the 46th minutes to give Chelsea an equalizer in 53 minutes. Football can still be unpredictable even though our predictions works for us some times .

Chelsea probably aren't aiming to get into the top 8 and they understand from the start that they'll have to play in the 1/16. This explanation seems rational to me. Plus, as we know, reaching the top eight doesn't offer any particular benefits (see Liverpool's case last year).
Another thing that makes me happy is that last year, 11 points were enough to get into the top 24, while Karabakh already has 7 and four games left. Is this club really going to make the playoffs in its first season in the Champions League?

Qarabağ FK - Chelsea game might end up becoming the surprise of this week's Champions League games. The Azerbaijan Premier League came prepared this season. Before now, they were a cheap side that ended at the bottom of the group, but this has changed now. Coach Gurban Gurbanov has been in charge of the club for 17 years which is extraordinary.  He has ended up building a strong European underdog.

Honestly I'm still surprised how these guys were able to stand up to Chelsea with such determination. I applaud them for their confidence and determination. Second half proved them underdogs still since they've exhausted themselves showing much strength in the first half and when it was time to fully test their stamina in the second half, they were already worn out. Chelsea dominated the second half surely and the quick feet from Garnacho saw that the points were shared, although I was anticipating that the three points go to Chelsea in the final minutes but the home team stood their ground. I'm really impressed with Qarabag performance today, kudos to them.

Estevao and Garnacho demonstrated more maturity in today's match, I'm really impressed with their performance.

It doesn't seem surprising to me, because I was oversurprised by Liverpool in their match between them and Real Madrid yesterday. Well, Qarabag actually played a great game, and their performance was so interesting. Despite not being the first to score, they put pressure on Chelsea, however, the match ended in a draw. Eventually, Chelsea was able to equalise the match, as such Qarabag-2, Chelsea-2. Well played. I am very curious about Barcelona's match against Club Brugge. I would have predicted that Barcelona would win them straight, but I don't give a big team hope again. I stopped looking down on small teams when meeting with big teams thos days. We still have Dortmund and Manchester City again, which is going to be a tough match, a little.

[Egii Nna]

Oh dear god… Chelsea is giving me a headache tonight lol. T

Me too. The world feels upside down. Chelsea came off as losers after the first half. They looked really tired ^{maybe the long flight, the time zone difference, or something else affected them}. I bet on their victory, hoping that Qarabag would be an easy target for them, but it seems I was mistaken about the Azerbaijani team. They showed strength and the willingness to defeat one of the strongest teams in Premier League.

Why are you giving silly excuses for Chelsea laxity in this match. Did the long flight chanhed their mindet from victory to losing. Just accept the fact that Chelsea isn't a club that's predictable. They vs n disappoint you when you put your confidence in them. How can they allow their host to take the lead from one goal down.

Funny enough, Chelsea tried to manage the game on a draw, but to me, that was still a disappointing performance. This is not what we all expect from them, we expect Chelsea to win Qarabag easily in this game, but it is what we ended up seeing. That is why, most times, when it comes to smaller teams, I don’t usually have much hope in Chelsea. Although games usually happen this way, Chelsea did what they could. Since they didn’t lose the game, the disappointment won’t be too much.

What an expensive mistake made by Enzo maresca in the first half, reserving few first team players all because of underestimation and downgrading on the game. irrespective of that expensive mistake made by the coach Chelsea's team where dominant and possessive on the game which gave them an edge to push for equalization when the game was against them not in possession but in goals, thats why i said dominance never guarantee complete success in a game. On the game, Chelsea where considered favorite to win but divided the points because of that expensive mistake

[Frankolala]

Club Brugga is really giving it to Barcelona in an incredible way. They have taken lead twice. First was on the 6th minutes by Tresoldi and the second goal was on the 17th minutes by Forbs. Barcelona was able to cancel the first goal two minutes after Tresoldi's goal. Barcelona ball has hit the bar twice, I expect an equalizer from them this first half.

[Abu-Naim]

Qarabağ and Chelsea couldn't win. The match ended 2-2.
Qarabağ are the surprise team this season. Chelsea entered the match as heavy favorites, but it was Qarabağ who missed out on victory.
Both teams took one point from this match, bringing their total points total to seven.

Chelsea was weak in this match, they didn’t play like they want the three points, they underrated their team and they are shocked at the end since they couldn’t get away with three points  and they are can very luck that the Qatabag attackers were misssing chances, they could have defeated Chelsea with good goal margins.

All these teams are been underrated, and now they are showing the world that they have the quality to qualify to the Champions League competition, and they are proving that these big teams that they can do far as well.

[Woodie]

First casualty of the day was Villarreal losing to Pafos and this was a 10 odds team which should tell you how much they were favourites.

Next casualty to fall was Chelsea after leading dropped points to Qarabağ..

Now Barcelona is chasing the game against Club Brugge as the trail 2-1, now am wondering what's happening with Spanish teams this time around??

[xeqoRameshAxueamExaqana]

A very surprising match result saw the strong team with many stars  Chelsea held to a 2-2 draw by Qarabag. This result leaves Chelsea in 11th place with 7 points. Alejandro Garnacho was the savior with his equalizing goal in the 53rd minute. After that, no further goals were scored. Although Chelsea came close to dominating with 61% possession and 16 shots, according to possession and shots, the teams were still balanced and not overwhelmingly dominant.

Barcelona’s defense is looking so shaky tonight. Eric Garcia and Araujo don’t seem to have a good understanding between them, and it’s showing in how disorganized the back line looks.

Each time club Brugge moves forward, the defense looks confused and slow to react, almost like they are not sure who should take charge. There’s no real coordination or communication at the back, and it’s making things too easy for Club Brugge to find space and create chances.

Barcelona can’t keep defending like this because it’s only a matter of time before they concede again if something doesn’t change quickly. Flick needs to introduce Cubarsi

[Agbe]

Qarabag to me is the surprise package in the champions League this season because, they have been performing at a top level by this time on the table it was expected that a team like Qarabag will in the bottom of the champions League table but the opposite is the case. With this draw against Chelsea Qarabag now has seven points from four games which is a decent performance for a team like Qarabag considering the quality of oppositions that they are facing. Chelsea really disappointed their fans because this was one game that nobody expected Chelsea to drop points but great performance from Qarabag for coming from behind to draw this game.

Honestly I wasn't expecting Enzo to joke with this game in any way, go out their with your best and knock out this Qarabag guys. The host did well, they played more than what I expected because of how low they was rated before the game.

The experiments carried out actually made the situation not too favorable for Chelsea in this match, which made the points they had to get easily because the difference in the quality of the team had to be lost just like that because the opportunity in front of their eyes could not be utilized properly.

Enzo's decision to make Joao a false 9 rather than a targetman in this match for me was a little strange and trying some players by rotating because he thought that this could be won from the start was a mistake for Chelsea.
With this result they are still stuck in an uncomfortable position but the points are still a little better and can still be forced in the competition in the race for the standings.

In other matches, Barcelona were quite surprising when in the first half of the match they fell behind Club Brugge with a score of 2-1.

One of the surprises of football is happening tonight as Chelsea is losing in first half to Qarabaq after scoring first. If Chelsea eventually loses this match, there will be tears in the entire gambling world as there is hardly anyone that did not play Chelsea to win which was even the expectation of the bookies. There is time in the match though but this half time result is surprising and puts a lot of fears in bettors and the entire Chelsea supporters.

After Qarabag lost their first match in the Champions League, they haven't lost any match yet, and if they had defeated Chelsea, there's nothing surprising about it, because Chelsea isn't consistent in winning their matches this season. Qarabag vs Chelsea match ended in a 2-2 draw, and it will cut a lot of bettors' bet tickets because I believe they will bet on Chelsea to win Qarabag.

Now Barcelona is chasing the game against Club Brugge as the trail 2-1, now am wondering what's happening with Spanish teams this time around??

We have already seen 2 ups and downs today, I just hope another is not coming in too again. Another game I was been afraid of again is that Inter Milan Vs Kairat Almaty game but Inter Milan is leading now 1 - 0. Although I still feel that Barcelona has the tendency to make a comeback in the second half because they are capable of it. Other games are going smoothly for now though.

[Zoomic]

Dortmund is finding it difficult to survive in the hands of Manchester City. The attack that pep guardiola presented to the German side is too hot for them to contend. Manchester city has scored 2 already and they are pressing to score more. So, if they keep same momentum, we are going to see more than 3 goals in this match only from the Manchester city side. I am yet to be convinced that Dortmund will be able to score Manchester because there has never been any convincing attempt my them.

Meanwhile it's HT 2 : 0 Foden, Haaland.
