UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[Solodoski]

Benfica won at home against Napoli and managed to secure their second victory in the Champions League. We are seeing Benfica slowly recover. They played well against Napoli and deserved to win. With goals from Montoya and Barreiro, I think Benfica will finish at least in the top 24.
City, who faced Real Madrid, managed to take all three points from this away game. Despite falling behind, City scored in the first half to win, raising their points total to 13 and almost guaranteeing a top-eight finish. Real Madrid didn't manage many accurate shots in this match, and frankly, we can say that City put in a better performance.

I think Benfica are really picking up and I am very impressed with the way they played against Napoli yesterday. They no what needed to be done and they did it. They really had a wonderful performance and deserves to win the game.
Talking about the match against Real Madrid and Manchester  Ciry, I am not surprised on the outcome,  just that I expected Manchester City to score more. Real Madrid is in a vertical bad place right now and it's really showing in there performance,  so I expected Manchester City to win the match, which they did and they even outplayed Real Madrid.

You're all always strict, as if you were professional coaches. is not easy to coach at a high level, and then they're on 25 points, they're not doing too badly. In the end, they're just a few points off the top, Arsenal don't have that many points of advantage, and the championship is wide open.

I don't know, i don't see it much like you, i think Arsenal is going very far and i think the other teams are very far away, obviously anything can still happen, of course but this is something that we will see little by little and most likely at the end

What was the result, did Real Madrid win at Santiago Bernabeu? The Champions League is very different from every domestic match. I have already said that Real Madrid's chances are slim and Manchester City has the chance to get points at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The risk of betting on Manchester City is indeed big, but with analysis carried out more than once with various sides looked at, Pep Guardiola can get points there. And the result was that Manchester City won and dispelled the notion that Manchester City had a bad record at the Santiago Bernabeu. If you bet on under, it means you lose because the score is above 2 and the king of Europe loses to a newly shining team with minimal history.

Since inconsistent performance in domestic league and the capital defeating by Celta Vigo last match I don't think Madrid has bigger chance for defeating Manchester City, finally last night Madrid have got second loss in Champion League phase league group and the current standing not secure yet depend on two matches left result. Put Mbappe at the bench last night fatal mistake made by Alonso and he braveness make huge rotation when facing the top teams Manchester City.
Actually Madrid leading one goal early from Rodrygo but Nico O'Reilley and Haaland make Madrid have loss three points at home match must win two matches later against AS Monaco and Benfica if won't play the playoff round matches. Crucial position of Real Madrid in this month after having bad performance in domestic league get continue poor performance in champion league.

I don't really know whether things would turn around for Real Madrid due to how weak they've become bad defensively, I just hope that this ain't the downfall of this great club just as the likes of Manchester United and Juventus that were very great has fallen when it comes to good football or could it be that Xabi Alonso is not equal to the task?
 Well I trust Perez to find a quick solution to their problem cause the club has become so weak defensively and need a fix in that area. As for Vinicius Junior I feel he's the one that's supposed to be benched instead cause Mbappe has been the one carrying the club this season, I really don't understand why he had to be on the bench against City, what was Alonso even thinking?.

With over 2 xG, PSG should've converted at least 1 of their many chances to secure the win against Athletic. PSG hit 18 shots and 5 big chances but couldnt convert any. A win would have put them just 3 points away at the top spot and at 2nd place. They are almost safe

Yeah, PSG should have won it consider they get so many chances to score. Remember theer's a moment when Barcelona was able to do one on one with Bilbao's goalie, but his poor shoot have terrible accuracy.
I think it's fair considering they're sloppy enough in this game. Their opponent was also defended well. So draw is still good enough.

[Hvdv]

There's a clear pattern with Inter: the team regularly fades toward the end of matches, especially in the Champions League where the tempo is higher. Liverpool's penalty was definitely soft, but it was also clear how physically drained Inter looked in the closing stages. A dull draw could have been a fair result too, but Liverpool still felt slightly closer to winning.

But this rule seems obvious to me, winning with weaker teams can everyone do it don't you think?
Inter show they have a good team, but with the players they have they can't assert themselves on the pitch.
It's easy to win with weaker teams, but when they meet slightly more organized teams they can't do anything particularly incisive.

Liverpool's poor form didn't stop Inter from beating them. It was an unexpected defeat for Inter, especially since they were playing at home and were the favorites, and Liverpool had been dropping points consecutively in the Premier League. Nevertheless, it's a result that requires caution against such a team. In the Champions League, you can never predict the outcome of any match with certainty.

I expected Inter to beat us as we are in awful form. I thought we were very solid defensively though, Inter didn’t really create many clear cut chances. There was only really the Martinez header in the first half that was well saved by Alisson.

We are 9th in the big table now, the top 8 go straight into the last 16 without needing a 2 legged play off which I would love to avoid. We have 2 games remaining against Marseille and Qarabag. I think we will get into the top 8 which would be good. Maybe the CL is a welcome distraction from our awful PL form.

The Madrid players did a great job, but the end result didn't always go their way but at least they tried and didn't give up. This defeat isn't the end of the world, they'll come back stronger and there are still games left to take advantage of. Listening to the players opinions in interviews suggests that they have high hopes for Xabi and don't want him to be sacked.

It was not the result Real Madrid had hoped for, but this is the reality of football, because as a team they will not always be in good shape, there are times when they have to lose like this and even achieve a negative record in a row.

I really appreciate what the Real Madrid players did after this defeat, they showed respect for Xabi and this shows that their problems may be over. It's not easy for Xabi to see all this, but it's part of the process when the coach is in charge of a very big team.

In previous seasons, Benfica was actually a team whose strength always had to be taken into account in the UCL. However, this season Benfica has experienced a slight decline in performance, even so, they still have a chance to fight their way into the UCL playoffs. Their victory against Napoli is proof that they can suddenly return to their best form.

In their next match, Benfica will face another Serie A team, Juventus. If Benfica can secure another victory, their path to the playoffs will open up significantly.

The Real Madrid vs. Manchester City match was quite exciting, and Manchester City's victory was not surprising. However, I am curious as to why Mbappe was not included in the lineup. Is he currently dealing with an injury or some other issue?

One of the biggest problems for Real Madrid has been Mbappé's absence. Perhaps if Mbappé had played, he could have converted the chances Vinicius missed. Lately, the Brazilian player hasn't been as good as he used to be. I think he's lost his concentration, and that must be affecting his game. He needs to get back to his old form, because for Real Madrid, the whole team needs to play like they used to. They need to make up for this defeat against Manchester City.

Sometimes bold decisions don't always work out and Xabi Alonso has done just that on several occasions. He continues to experiment with strategies and lineups. This is a mistake Xabi Alonso made he was overconfident even when facing a team like Man City, he dared to rotate players.

The consequences of this decision now put Xabi Alonso in danger, and the pressure is certainly increasing. It's difficult to be a coach if you can't calm the dressing room. Even having big ideas is difficult, and Xabi Alonso may be in that situation now. He's overwhelmed and unable to improve Real Madrid's performance in La Liga or UCL. They lost to Liverpool, and now Man City is in the Champions League. Xabi must quickly realize that being a Madrid coach isn't about being a tactical expert, but about being able to unite and calm the dressing room. Take Ance and Zidane for example. Because the Galacticos squad is the philosophy, not the beauty of the game.

As for Vinicius Junior I feel he's the one that's supposed to be benched instead cause Mbappe has been the one carrying the club this season, I really don't understand why he had to be on the bench against City, what was Alonso even thinking?.

Mbappé was left out due to a muscle injury, and Xabi Alonso didn't want to risk him, as forcing him on would have disastrous consequences for both Real Madrid and Mbappé. Furthermore, Real Madrid had already qualified for the round of 16 in the Champions League, and it was indeed painful to lose to Manchester City at home, but that's the way it is due to Real Madrid's unstable form.

[liasbaa]

Arsenal, as usual, have maintained their consistency well this season. And perhaps they will continue like this until the round of 16. Personally, I have high hopes for Arsenal this season. Compared to other teams, we can see that Arsenal are the most consistent. Arsenal has not lost a single game in the UCL this season. They are the only team to have won all six of their matches so far. Meanwhile, all other teams have suffered at least one defeat. This demonstrates just how strong Arsenal is this season. Arteta is truly an excellent coach. He just needs a bit more luck to finish the season with a championship title.

Arsenal is doing well, and are topping the champions League group. That's credible and I believe they will reach the semi finals this year, but I still not trust Arsenal to win the champions League, but if they win it will a great achievement to them, they have won it , just like Psg did last year, they fought till the end, I just hope Arsenal can maintain this form till the end.

Arsenal are known for this, they always do well in the beginning when it gets to the end they will bottle it, that's why I don't take them seriously, even in the league they're just two points ahead of Manchester City, their chance of winning the league is slim, but if they can work harder and put in more effort, they might win it.

Arsenal are at the top and in great form but their weakness has not been noticed yet because they have won every match. This means that their defeats may start soon. In fact I suspect that because most of the best teams cannot be in a winning streak their rhythm will soon fall. Each team still has many matches to play. Just as you doubt whether they will be able to maintain their performance in the end, I also doubt that they may not be able to maintain their best performance until the end of the league. In terms of potential, out of the four teams in the top of the tournament, I see Man City and PSG as having the opportunity to do better and Real Madrid have the potential to improve further.

[Shadiq]

Mbappé was left out due to a muscle injury, and Xabi Alonso didn't want to risk him, as forcing him on would have disastrous consequences for both Real Madrid and Mbappé. Furthermore, Real Madrid had already qualified for the round of 16 in the Champions League, and it was indeed painful to lose to Manchester City at home, but that's the way it is due to Real Madrid's unstable form.

How long will Real Madrid have to see such painful moments!! Xabi Alonso seems very helpless now, but it is a relief that the fans and players are still in favor of giving Xabi Alonso more chances. Real Madrid's defensive line problems against big teams are not going away. However, Real Madrid's luck was not with them against Manchester City, they did create good chances to score. But they could not convert them into goals. Pep won the Xabi Alonso vs Pep Guardiola match. Xabi Alonso has to work harder with Real Madrid.

[Solokan]

Real Madrid losing their last two home games is unacceptable. They dropped points and lost both in the league and the Champions League. I agree that Manchester City is a strong team, but Real Madrid needed to win this match. It's time for the strong Real Madrid to step up again. Questions about manager Xabi are growing daily. Whether he's a good manager for the team is now being questioned.

Real Madrid are currently seventh in the Champions League standings. They have only two games left and must finish in the top eight. Otherwise, they risk elimination after their playoff match. I would have expected a team like Real Madrid to finish in the top three, but they are currently seventh.

The Real Madrid vs. Manchester City match was very exciting because we saw fierce competition. Manchester City gave it their all to win, as did Real Madrid. Unfortunately, Real Madrid lost to Manchester City by a narrow margin of 1-2. Now, Manchester City fans must be overjoyed because their team managed to beat Real Madrid. However, it's unfortunate that Real Madrid couldn't defeat Manchester City, especially since they were the home team in that match.

Fortunately, I bet on Manchester City's victory in that match, and I ended up winning. Did you also succeed in your bets for that match? In my opinion, one of the reasons Real Madrid played poorly was because Mbappe didn't play. If he had played, I think Real Madrid would have had the potential to win this match. But now it's all over, and what's important now is that Xabi needs to improve Real Madrid's performance so they can perform better in upcoming matches. But in this match, fortunately, Real Madrid managed to score a goal against Manchester City, even though they lost.

Believing only until the semi-finals is too big, but believing until you win the Champions League is also not bad. Arsenal this season is in more solid condition even though they have experienced injuries to several main players, but Arsenal managed to get 6 wins from 6 matches in the UCL and PL, Arsenal also topped the standings even though the gap with the teams below is getting closer.

Arsenal are known for this, they always do well in the beginning when it gets to the end they will bottle it, that's why I don't take them seriously, even in the league they're just two points ahead of Manchester City, their chance of winning the league is slim, but if they can work harder and put in more effort, they might win it.

This has become Arsenal's habit, so many people are reluctant to bet seriously on their matches, let alone bet on them winning the trophy. Anyway, who knows, this season they will no longer do that in the sense of their habit which many people know how it starts and ends.

Benfica won at home against Napoli and managed to secure their second victory in the Champions League. We are seeing Benfica slowly recover. They played well against Napoli and deserved to win. With goals from Montoya and Barreiro, I think Benfica will finish at least in the top 24.
City, who faced Real Madrid, managed to take all three points from this away game. Despite falling behind, City scored in the first half to win, raising their points total to 13 and almost guaranteeing a top-eight finish. Real Madrid didn't manage many accurate shots in this match, and frankly, we can say that City put in a better performance.

Benfica won at home against Napoli was one of the surprising results I saw in a Champions League match this week. Benfica last win was against Ajax, who are struggling at the bottom of the table, but they managed to defeat Napoli at home by two goals. I thought Napoli was going to win the match because they are in good shape than Benfica in the Champions League. Mourinho and his squad has secured a second victory in the Champions League this season.

However, it was obvious that they would be unable to stop Manchester City at home, with the injuries Real Madrid players have suffered this season. Manchester City could have score more than two goals in this match, but Courtois made a lot saves to stop Manchester city from scoring. Madrid defeat to City did not affect them because they are still in the top eight.

[Out of mind]

Arsenal defeated Club Brugge with a score of 0-3. Club Brugge, playing at home, was unable to take advantage of the situation, as they should have been able to score at least one goal despite losing. However, upon reflection, it is understandable that Club Brugge lost because Arsenal is currently in excellent form, and their attacks are extremely difficult to defend against, as Arsenal's players now possess extraordinary speed. What I liked most about the Arsenal vs. Club Brugge match was Madueke's performance; he consistently dribbled the ball effectively, and anyone attempting to stop his movements was easily outmaneuvered, ultimately leading to him scoring a goal against Club Brugge.

As the home team, Club Brugge was completely overwhelmed by Arsenal. Arsenal is now comfortably at the top of the standings, and it seems certain that Arsenal has a strong chance of advancing to the Round of 16 without needing to go through the playoffs. In my opinion, the Arsenal vs. Club Brugge match was a lucky one, and those who bet large amounts of money were very fortunate indeed, as their profits would be substantial. Unfortunately, I only placed a small bet.

I never saw Arsenal losing this match against Club Brugge, especially the fact that they lost to Aston Villa in the weekend. They needed to win this match to show that they are still in a good form and they did it excellently well. I think Club Brugge never stand any chance against Arsenal, and they just remind everyone that they are still the team to beat. Winning 6 out of 6 really shows how good they are this season.
We also need to mention Noni Maduake's performance today, because I think this is his best performance in an Arsenal shirt. I hope he keeps this up, because Arsenal will need this type of performance from him to help them secure major trophies as the season goes on.

Arsenal's performance in the Champions League is very good, they have won every match with great results, which indicates that they will be in better form in the upcoming matches. Their great victory against Club Brugge shows that Arsenal's performance is consistently very good. Noni Maduake performed well in the match, he certainly played brilliantly for Arsenal, he will definitely try to maintain his performance in the future. This season we can see that Arsenal are in good form in the Champions League, they are more confident than other teams to win the league. Arsenal are quite the favorite this season, their performance is really amazing to win the Champions League, they must maintain this performance.

Arsenal are quite the favorite this season, their performance is really amazing to win the Champions League, they must maintain this performance.

I never rush to talk about favorites in the Champions League until the play-off stage begins. Because by that time a lot of things can still change. It is only December now, and the final stage will take place closer to the end of spring. That is a lot of time, and because of that everything can change. For now Arsenal is indeed very good., and the fact that they managed to beat Bayern is also a very significant indicator for me. But I am not rushing with conclusions yet, and I will evaluate the results and the potential of the teams closer to the quarterfinal stage.

Despite the fact that football is unpredictable, I was not expecting that Real Madrid would lose two home games back to back. Real Madrid is not that weak to be losing at home match anyhow, but it seems that something is going wrong in Real Madrid, and that is why they are getting this kind of result. I know that Real Madrid is struggling in their defence line, but it is not that bad. Manchester City being able to beat Real Madrid in their home game is not much of a problem for me, because I know that they are a big team and they are in serious form for now, but still, the lowest performance I was expecting from Real Madrid yesterday was a draw. In their remaining two games in the Champions League, I don’t think they will try to mess up. Yes, every season Real Madrid always has the top three odds to win the Champions League but seeing what they are playing currently, it is not showing that they are going far in this competition.

[Popkon6]

The Madrid players did a great job, but the end result didn't always go their way but at least they tried and didn't give up. This defeat isn't the end of the world, they'll come back stronger and there are still games left to take advantage of. Listening to the players opinions in interviews suggests that they have high hopes for Xabi and don't want him to be sacked.

One of the biggest problems for Real Madrid has been Mbappé's absence. Perhaps if Mbappé had played, he could have converted the chances Vinicius missed.

He needs to get back to his old form, because for Real Madrid, the whole team needs to play like they used to. They need to make up for this defeat against Manchester City.

Mbappe's absence has kept Real Madrid under control, Manchester City has been quite aggressive. However, there was a lot of competition between the two teams at the beginning, but the Real Madrid players could not perform well after half-time. As a result, despite Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo being in the attack, Real Madrid could not perform well and missed the easy goals, which they would not have missed if Mbappe was present, so they could have changed the number of mistakes on the scoreboard of Real Madrid. However, there is a slight deficiency in the defenders of Real Madrid, when the defenders and attack of Real Madrid are strong, Real Madrid will roar like in the past. However, in this match, Real Madrid is leaning towards the bottom of the point table by losing three points.
