UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[Mabebe]

Barcelona are 5th on the UCL table, no injuries, currently ahead of Copenhagen, will not be involved in the UCL playoffs February they are right where they want to be.
Barcelona are fighters that listens to what ever their coach tells them at the half time break.
I don’t know which place Real Madrid is at but with PSG and Newcastle is level they are within the 8th place cut off.

Were you actually thinking that Barcelona will lose that match just because they were losing to Copenhagen at half time, I didn't even think so for once because I was backing them to win and I knew second half will be hell for them and for the fact that the match is been played at Barcelona home made me to have more confidence in them.

[Franctoshi]

Heyy heyy let's see how Real Madrid was embarrassed by Benfica with a temporary score of 3-1, what's wrong with Real Madrid? are they no longer confident like before? or maybe there is something that I don't know in Real Madrid tonight why they lost to Benfica with a score like that?, I know maybe many are wondering, but yes Arbeloa has entered a more fierce competition room here, he must be strong, besides being strong in competing strategies with his team's enemies, he must also be strong in his ears, because there will be a lot of criticism of Real Madrid including this new coach who has only been in charge for a few weeks.

They've managed to score another goal to make it 3-2 so there's hope that they could comeback, Madrid needs to work on their defense all Benfica's goals are errors from their defence, they gave the host attackers to much space to penetrate their 18 yards box and couldn't help protect their keeper.
 Being the head coach of Real Madrid currently is a heavy task, something that Xabi Alonso couldn't handle so it's not what we expext to be easy for Arbeola, well I believe he was prepared for it that's why he agreed to take the role of a head coach after Xabi left, Real Madrid are just lucky that they're in a good position on the table.

It's now 3-2 in favour of Benfica in the game between them and Madrid, Some really interesting and shocking results coming out in tonight's games. I wasn't expecting Real to be losing, Chelsea has changed their game and they're now leading by 2-3.
Manchester city is enjoying a 2-0 lead over their opponent team Galatasaray, which I wasn't expecting based on Galatasaray's performance since this Champions League.

[Ruttoshi]

Real Madrid is struggling to get an equalizer against Benfica who is leading them with a goal as the scoreline is 3-2 currently. However, even if Madrid loses this match, they're still going to qualify automatically to thw round of 16.

I feel this is embarrassing that Benfica who has been performing poorly is leading Real Madrid. Barcelona is dominating their match and they're sure of qualifying because they're on 5th position on the table. Arsenal remains unbeaten till the end of the group stage.

[Nightwatchmare]

Arsenal and Barcelona are playing against easy opponents. Fortunately even if I don't watch all of the games, I won't miss much. Both will win, Barca will finish the group stage in the top 8 and Arsenal will go through as the perfect points leader.

The matches are live now and Arsenal is winning their opponent Kairat Almaty while Barcelona is losing to Copenhagen but i trust them to get a comeback. I don't even know what's wrong with Mikel Areta, why playing the senior players when we know that this match is a sure win even with Arsenal's junior team player. Arteta shouldn't have featured Kai Havertz, Viktor Gyokeres, Eberechi Eze and Gabriel Martinelli. Arteta should have reserved them against their next Premier League match which is against Leeds united because the club do resistance in some of their matches, they even won big teams like Chelsea.

Arsenal is winning Kairat Almaty as expected, but i am surprised Copenhagen scored Barcelona under 10 but Barcelona have bounce is winning Copenhagen 3:1 now. Mikel Arteta using his key player to play against Kairat Almaty is unwise. He should have rested them so that they will rest and have enough strength to play in the premier league so they can win their match and maintain the 4 points they are leading Manchester City with. Mikel Arteta is behaving like someone that cannot win the title, and i will not be surprised if either Manchester City or Aston Villa wins the title.

Barcelona really doing well tonight and if they maintain well they will get victory of the match, because Barcelona really need this match so that they will automatically qualify to the next round without playing any playoffs. Let see how the game will probably ended since they are still playing and anything can possibly happen in the front. Real Madrid are struggling to end the game in a draw but Benfica are trying to achieve the three point. Hansi Flick is doing well tonight he really means this game and if they can continue like this he will surly achieve is goals one day.

I trust Manchester City's ability and I'm very confident that they'll be able to beat Galatasaray tomorrow. However, when you consider the fact that their visitors tomorrow are on the brink of not qualifying for the knockout stage and must win at Etihad tomorrow to be sure of qualification to the next round, you'll understand why they'll be playing with every might and strength in that game. I expect a very difficult game for both sides and should Manchester City beat their visitors at the end, I won't be surprised because they're also seeking to finish in the top 8

It's a do-or-die match for Pep, they absolutely have to win, there's no other way, they must get points and move forward. Galatasaray is in very good form, I would be wary of them, but if I were Pep, I would go out with my arsenal of attackers, not letting them breathe I would play with that strategy, it doesn't matter if the players end up exhausted, they must win, it's a final for them.

If Manchester City should win then they must work hard for it, Galatasaray won't be easy to win and Manchester City form is not reliable for now to since their only option here is to win i believe that Pep will come with different strategy so he can get three points for Manchester City.

That is true and if actually winning this game will make them to qualify for the next round I think Pep Guardiola will go that extreme to make sure he qualifed but honestly Galatasaray is more stronger than the team Manchester city lost 3:1 to but I have realized football is not always straight and one way rather it is always random and zig zag which means, the fact they lost against Bodo doesn't mean they will lose against Galatasaray today though it will be tough because of Manchester city form.

I was also saying so, for the fact Bodo Glimt won City, doesn't mean Galatasaray will do same, football changes in dynamics, and wasn't really seeing Manchester city losing against Gala. However that same Bodo Glimt that Won City is winning Atletico Madrid 2-1, that's shows that, Glimt is a serious Club to really pay attention to this seasons Champions League.

This Barcelona team has to stop this come back thing, so they reduce the level of pressure or High BP on their fans and supporters. Today they were lucky the other teams had a bad turn. Thanks to PSG and Newcastle draw.
Even if I knew they were going to win, I had a scare because of their goal difference was poor but they came back banging goals.
Chelsea was able to overturn their game, I Never expected Napoli to win though.

[Salahmu]

Who here doubts Barcelona, Madrid, Juventus and Munich will win today?

I doubt some of these teams will win today, as some opponents, like Monaco and PSV, need all 3 points to finish in the top 24. However, there's also a guaranteed win for Napoli, as they'll certainly maintain their position for the play off. Chelsea, despite losing this match, can still advance to the play off.

Let's enjoy the surprises in this 8 match.  

I doubted but not all and unfortunately how wining could be unforeseen I didn't no that the ones I didn't doubt will be losing and drawing by this time, for all the matches that's going on now is just Juventus and there opponent match that's missing goal, is 90 minutes and non, so actually this match is no goal match because they can't do it now. Real Madrid is struggling with attempt that's always off target, they might also loss the match because Benfica is having a lot targeted shots that got blocked by real Madrid if not we could have seen Benfica with another goal now. Alot of clubs got clean sheet on there match and Liverpool didn't just get a clean sheet but also the team with the greatest scores of 6:0 to Qarabag FK.

However that same Bodo Glimt that Won City is winning Atletico Madrid 2-1, that's shows that, Glimt is a serious Club to really pay attention to this seasons Champions League.

If Bodo Glimt makes it for the next round of the champions league, they will be a team that will really face a hard time progressing more. If they have been soft pedal by other teams in the past before, they won’t want to be the next team to fall into their trap again. They are indeed the underdogs in this competition and based on how they’re performing, they’ll really want to stay up to their game and progress more in the competition. The odds in the champions league doesn’t favours them more but with consistency they can actually go farther in this competition. Football can happen to any club, and when it does, it favours the team you don’t imagine could get the chance to have gone that far in the competition.

[BIT-BENDER]

Tottenham playing like prime Real madrid every Uefa champions league game this season, I could hardly recognize the Tottenham that lost to Burnley in the weekend to the Tottenham that beat Frankfurt today in Germany.
I think they enjoy Uefa champions league nights and if they wants that to continue they need to start playing seriously in the English premier League to make it into the Uefa champions league next season because they can not win this season Uefa champions league to qualify automatically for next.

[Zoomic]

Guys, What's up with this Bodo/Glimt

I don't understand those guys, and where da hell have they been this while? Wait! Did they employ a new coach? What really is the secret to their sudden improvement?
Last time they beat Manchester city and we all laughed at Manchester city and thought it was their fault. Surprisingly, today ATM is their next victim.
What is happening guys?

[ajanwalker]

I want to congratulate Bodo/Glimt. They did a great job and pulled off the surprise of the night in Madrid. They beat Atletico Madrid 1-2 away and qualified for the play-offs.
They secured their place with 6 points from their last two matches.

In another surprise, Benfica beat Real Madrid 4-2 with a goal from goalkeeper Trubin in the 90+10th minute and are now in 24th place.
I didn't watch the match, but I can imagine Mourinho's reaction.

Real Madrid is struggling to get an equalizer against Benfica who is leading them with a goal as the scoreline is 3-2 currently. However, even if Madrid loses this match, they're still going to qualify automatically to thw round of 16.

I feel this is embarrassing that Benfica who has been performing poorly is leading Real Madrid. Barcelona is dominating their match and they're sure of qualifying because they're on 5th position on the table. Arsenal remains unbeaten till the end of the group stage.

The matches this night didn't go the way people predicted. A girl in my area said, she would predict for Galatasaray against Manchester City because of Victor Osimhen but at the end of the game, Galatasaray loss with 2-0. What is disappointment is that. I was thinking that Napoli would win Chelsea because of their early lead in the game but Chelsea won the game with 3-2. And that the same scoreline happened to Benfica 3-2 Real Madrid. I can't really believed this. I was strongly believing that Real Madrid would win that game but my eye were clear after the full time. Arsenal 3 - 2 Kairat Almaty. If you carefully observed today matches, all the games ended with the same scoreline.

Jouse Mourino will always find a way to beat Madrid. I saw this coming, unfortunately, I didn't place the bet due to network issues.

Now any team can win Real Madrid. I mean any team, and anyone can score Real Madrid. Today, a goal keeper scored Real Madrid, what shameful performance from them. Lack of coordination in that team is killing their performances.

[bitLeap]

Madrid were slaughtered by Benfica and it was a devastating defeat for the players. Two red cards for Rodrygo and Asensio, but most interestingly Benfica last goal was scored by Trubin, the goalkeeper who advanced into the box. It was a surprise that Benfica broke the spirit of the Madrid players. Benfica made it through to the play off qualifying round and Madrid were eliminated in the last 8.

[Pjcr7]

How will I be convinced that Real Madrid is not actually mad? Both the players, the coach and crew and the president inclusive. What the hell just happened I this last game of the group stage. For a team that started the match in third place, scored first and was in the brink of qualifying automatically but all of a sudden they lost everything including automatic qualification. I need to be convinced that they are not mad. Mourinho still showing Real Madrid that his the bossx he used Real Madrid to qualify, anything other than a win for him today was going to see him kicked outta the competition and he made a statement by beating Real Madrid to qualify.

[Abu-Naim]

I want to congratulate Bodo/Glimt. They did a great job and pulled off the surprise of the night in Madrid. They beat Atletico Madrid 1-2 away and qualified for the play-offs.

All I will say is that I am surprised with the way Bodi Glimt defeated Manchester City last week and also defeated Atletico Madrid this week meanwhile they only played three draws since the beginning of the group stage games until these two win against bigger opponents  that most of us thought they will lose against.

A job well done for them even though I don’t think it is helpful because it’s too late to get such amazing performances because if it has comes early they would have been among the teams to play in the knockout stage.

In another surprise, Benfica beat Real Madrid 4-2 with a goal from goalkeeper Trubin in the 90+10th minute and are now in 24th place.
I didn't watch the match, but I can imagine Mourinho's reaction.

Real Madrid have no direction this season, they are playing like an average team in all competitions because they are not consistent maybe because if the coaches they changed my that affected their performance.

[Cryptoprincess101]

After the final league phase matches of the Champions League ended tonight, here are the 8 teams that has qualified directly for the round of 16 and the teams includes Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Tottenham, Barcelona, Chelsea, Sporting and Manchester City. It's only Newcastle that didn't make it to the top 8 among the English teams. The England teams have given a very good impression in this league phase; they need to continue with this same spirit as they advance to different stages of the Champions League. We might even see two England teams reaching the finals. Anyways, congratulations to the 8 qualified teams while they await another 8 teams that will qualify for the round of 16 through a play-off round.

[SUPERSAIAN]

When I saw the odds for the Galatasaray vs. Manchester City match, I briefly considered placing a bet on Galatasaray, especially since I support the team.  I'm glad I didn't. In the first half, Manchester City took the lead with goals from Haaland and Cherki. After that, they started playing more defensively.

Galatasaray had some moments of possession, but the players were very nervous and lacked concentration, so unfortunately, we didn't see many significant scoring opportunities in the match.

Poor performance from Real Madrid. The game ended beyond expectations and those betting for Real Madrid were slaughtered unfortunately.. They even failed to maintain their position among the first 8 teams. They have now to go through play-offs.
Paris Saint-Germain and Newcastle United prohibited themselves from qualifying directly with their draw. They have to go together to the play-offs.
Marseille, PSV Eindhoven and Napoli to leave while Benfica booked a ticket to stay is the real joke of the competition because Benfica was really failing but they woke up for good!
