UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[Jostern]

I hope we don't see some boring final that ends up with a goalless draw after 90 minutes or all the way to the penalties. With the way Arsenal play too cautiously and make so many back passes even in normal matches. Now, imagine what they would do in the finals of a Champions League.

To be honest, the best displays in the later stages of this tournament were probably Bayern Munich vs PSG (first leg) and maybe Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid (both legs)... One of them should have been the final  

I don't know how interesting the final would be but what I know for sure is that the final won't end a goalless draw after 90 minutes and the winner of the final won't be decide in a penalty shootout. PSG has a complete team, so if Arsenal make so many back passes they are going to suffer at the hands of PGS. With the way PSG made Bayern Munich to look today, Arsenal isn't a threat for PSG in the final.

Considering that Paris-Saint-German are in the Final that means that it’s going to be a very interesting Final, because they have to play for everything to win the game right now, and I’m completely sure it’s going to be an interesting Final, Arsenal vs Bayern Munich wouldn’t have been a very good Final, because I don’t really think if it was going to be an interesting Final anyways let’s see how this game is going to go right now, I’m expecting an intense Final and Paris-Saint-German should be winning the Finals of the Champions League.

I see so many bayern fans are begging for this handball to be a penalty. So many people talked about that while they don't understand the rule that a handball from the shoot created by own teammates has never been a penalty. Why don't people spend some minutes to read the rules created by UEFA?
So i really appreciate reff performance today. He's doing good job by give no pen to the Bayern. So B2b for PSG is just around the corner. I hope they will beat Arsenal in the final.

Truly disappointing. What I was worried about actually happened. Even though Bayern’s attacking line looked pretty solid, their defense seemed to lack spirit and intensity. I don’t know if they lost confidence or their mentality just dropped, but several times I noticed they almost handed PSG chances to score.

At first, I was really confident Bayern could win the UCL and achieve the treble winner title. But I guess it’s over now.

Exactly, it's not a penalty at all, these are FIFA/IFAB (International football Association Board) rules, it is what we call the teammate exception rule, if a ball hits a player's hand, and the ball is coming directly from the leg, head or any other part of a player in the same team, it is usually not awarded as a penalty. But I heard something similar happened in the first leg, and they gave PSG the penalty, so that's why their was a debate and upsetting in the Bayern fans and team.

If this is true, then I strongly believe that PSG won't win the UCL, will this be d first Arsenal UCL? Wow, it seems a bit unreal, maybe dey can take a dual trophy diz season, and it will be mind blowing.

Damn, do you even read what you are writing before you click "post". Every single team ever that plays a final plays for "everything".
Also thinking Bayern vs Arsenal wouldn't have been interesting is straight up hilarious. Great post, you earned you 2$ or whatever your signature is paying for your nonsense. Classic spam!

Anyway, too bad Bayern is out. I hate seeing sheikh owned teams like Man city or even worse PSG going into European finals, that's just how it is. I have much greater respect for a team like Bayern that builds their business organically through smart investments and steady good business. Those teams that get money pumped into them deserve no respect and destroy football.

The second leg between Bayern Munich and PSG was expected to be an exciting one, and we saw a very entertaining match. PSG played a strategic role in winning the match. They were as strong offensively as they were defensively.

We will definitely have to wait for an interesting final match where Arsenal will play against a PSG who are performing well. Most analysts are giving PSG the lead to win but Arsenal are playing consistently and at the same time they are playing strategic football. As a result, Bayern Munich players played a strong attack but did not score. Although they were desperate for a goal for most of the match, PSG created a strong wall to protect the defense after scoring the first goal. Bayern players could not break that wall. Although they scored in added time and towards the end of the match, PSG advanced to the final due to their lead in the first leg.

[Ale88]

I didn't see anyone talking about Kvaratskhelia: his performances during the whole Champions League have been insane. Right now he is by far the best offensive wing in the world together with Yamal and Olise. The sad thing is that probably he has no chances for winning the Golden Ball because there is the World Cup, and Georgia didn't qualify, and we all know that whoever wins the WC will probably win the Golden Ball too.

I support Munich for the final match, but unfortunately, it ended today because the aggregate advantage belonged to PSG. PSG and Munich both played well today, it's just that Munich fans might be disappointed with some referee decisions that were considered incorrect. One of them was a hand touch that should have been a penalty for Munich. 
Apart from all that, I see Kvaratskhelia as an extraordinary player that PSG has. He is the one who destroyed Munich's defense in both the first leg and the second leg. His movements from the wing are really dangerous.

Bayern Munich dominated the game from start to finish but struggled to create scoring opportunities. Safonov made some excellent saves. I thought Bayern Munich would reach the final, but it didn't happen. This is the first time I've seen Bayern score so few goals at home. PSG's smart defensive play also contributed to this. Kane scored in the 90+4th minute, bringing his total for the season across all competitions to 55.

Yes,, maybe it's also because the team they like lost and they couldn't think straight. So, yes, we don't need to think about this anymore, because basically, PSG has made it to the final again and they have a chance to become champions for the second time in a row. Because if PSG becomes champion again this season, it would be a very great thing, because basically, they have had a hard time getting to the final, but now for two seasons, PSG has been able to score good results and reach the final. So,, for example, if PSG were to become champions again, I think it would be extraordinary.

But for some reason,, right now I'm reminded of Mbappé, because after he left, PSG's performance became very good like it is now. Because when Mbappé was still at PSG,, the team's performance was not too special and could be said to be ordinary. So, for that reason,, I think Mbappé might feel a little regretful about leaving PSG. Mbappé essentially left PSG because he struggled to win the Champions League, which is why he moved to Real Madrid. But now,, it's PSG who consistently reach the final. So, yes, it's quite dramatic, in my opinion.

[TedMosby]

Despite all the controversy caused by the referee yesterday, IMO individually, PSG and Bayern Munich are close, but tactically, Luis Enrique is far better than Vincent Kompany.

If we only look at performances in the UCL, Dembele and Kvaratskhelia are the two players that deserve the Ballon d'Or. They keep running everywhere. Great at pressing, dangerous in attack.

The score is only 1-1, but the match was still exciting and you could see the quality in this match. They scored early and disciplinedly balanced the attack and defense well. Both played well, but PSG were more dangerous in attack and more well-organized. People are still debating on social media if PSG deserve the final, well for me, a big yes. Entertaining play, attacking football, pure beauty football.

It would be interesting to watch how they manage to play when facing a team with a solid defense like Arsenal, and how Arsenal would overcome PSG's smart selective pressing.

And BTW, the market-implied probability on Polymarket shows PSG as the favorite to win the UCL this season.

Truly disappointing. What I was worried about actually happened. Even though Bayern’s attacking line looked pretty solid, their defense seemed to lack spirit and intensity. I don’t know if they lost confidence or their mentality just dropped, but several times I noticed they almost handed PSG chances to score.

At first, I was really confident Bayern could win the UCL and achieve the treble winner title. But I guess it’s over now. 

It's over bro, because a treble winning side cannot be this porous at the back. If you look at this game, from the first leg that ended 5-4 to this game that ended 1-1, you will agree with me that they were just lucky to draw the second leg because their defense is the worst among the four teams left, and if not for the impressive goal keeping from Neuer M. the goal that they would have conceded would have been up to five, so regardless of the poor officiating last night, their overall performance was really bad, and their crashing out is well deserving, so kudos to PSG for showing that they are a complete team and their uefa champions league exploit is well deserving.

That is the issue with a team with the eyes for goals because they are always having defenders who are over confident about them playing against any team but they very much forget that they're suppose to defend with everything they have while the attackers do their job. Bayern Munich have good defenders but they lost that coordination in the game, this game we're talking about only shows that they don't have much teams in their league to give them massive pressure every week, they play this type of game where they score and their opponent scores too but at the end they (Bayern Munich) find a way to get the final goal and win the game so that's why last night went the way it did and we shouldn't have expected much from them, I mean the defenders, even PSG too are some how like that but I'd choose their defensive line over that if Bayern Munich.

The guy is good and he understands his role properly in the team, he's also strong and very calculative, I liked him already from Napoli when he was doing mad combo with Osimhen. He's one of the players giving his all for the team. With facts of ground, the Golden ball might be finding its way back to Dembele for the second time if France wins the world cup. PSG has secured and tickets to the finals, Right now there's a high possibility of getting the trophy back to back,their problem would be that Arsenal has a strong defense, much stronger than that of Bayern, so PSG might have some work to go to penetrate their defensive line. I'm rooting for Arsenal to win the trophy, although I know their chances are  slim, the finals would decide.

[Hypnotizer]

Yes, PSG are still quite aggressive despite being 2 goals ahead on aggregate, although Bayern are also attacking a lot now, but there were no more goals in the first half, but I am sure that both teams will score in the second half. Bayern will score in the second half anyway, but PSG will try their best to score goals to keep the aggregate ahead. So I think the second half will be full of goals, if Bayern wants to go to the final, they will have to score 3 more goals now, but PSG will also keep scoring goals, so the next half will be very aggressive, but at the moment PSG's final chances are very high, if Bayern doesn't do something unbelievable now.

Well, it’s turns out to be the opposite in the second half because there was no single goal in the second half, neither Bayern nor PSG scored only in the extra time did Harry Kane scored to equalize this game and since PSG were already leading with two goals…they’re the official Finalists together with Arsenal.

Luis Enrique is on track of winning two champions league trophies consecutively and that’s really good, but we can’t actually say if he’ll win even though he has a very high chance of winning it.

PSG Vs Arsenal Final; a really interesting game to watch on 30th but PSG are clear favorite to win the Champions League again this season.

The final match is going to be interesting but it's not going to look like what happened in the semi final. You know one thing about final matches is that one small mistake can make you lose everything, I'm talking about things like red card that can send your men one as disadvantage to other teams and such match are very difficult to win because no matter how hard you try to attack, you will have to defend strongly otherwise the damage will done before your eyes.

Arsenal defended t hmm through out this UCL while PSG attack through out, we have to see who is going to lose defend quickly and who is going to make goals quickly in the final. If PSG defense is that good they will not be conceded goals like they did especially how Bayern was very fast at them but they won by they way because it seems they played the same style of match in both legs in the quarter final, perhaps they are going to change strategies in the final.

Well, my combo bet stumbled because of Dembele’s goal scored almost at the beginning of the match. Although the BTTS part was correct, the overall bet failed since it included Bayern win. But the match ended in a draw instead. I was right only in one assumption  that this time PSG would be extremely focused on their defence, and that proved true, as Bayern in fact  didn’t manage to breach it.

Kane scored in the 90+4th minute, bringing his total for the season across all competitions to 55.

I expected to see Bayern Munich in the final match too and was confident that they will return in the scoring when playing home. What was quite surprising is to see Paris Saint-Germain playing with a performance that was not seen before even in their league. In the beginning of UEFA Champions League they weren't expected to last for long here. At the opposite Bayern Munich ended second the group stage and were strong in the Bundesliga. I don't know if Arsenal could stop PSG in the final game by the end of this month.

Bayern Munich 1 Vs PSG 1 FT
PSG advances by aggregate, their win in France is the reason why the game couldn't get to extra time. Bayern Munich played out their heart, PSG in most part of the game were defending but very dangerous when they move move forward. Both teams would have scored lots of goals if not for their goalkeeper who were excellent in front of their goals. They did their jobs excellently. Olise was not as effective as he was in the first leg, Enrique learnt from the first leg and didn't leave only Mendez to mark Olise, great lesson he learnt from the first leg and I think it was key to holding Bayern's attack from his wing. I enjoyed the game as both teams were at each others throat trying to find the back of the net.

I also really enjoyed the match because both teams played well, ultimately making it difficult for either team to score. Unfortunately, Bayern lost at PSG's home ground in the first leg, which ultimately ended Bayern's Champions League campaign this season. Both the Bayern and PSG goalkeepers were truly excellent, ultimately resulting in few goals scored in that match. Although Bayern didn't advance to the final, they fought hard, and this experience should certainly be a lesson for next season. I think if there had been extra time, it would have been more exciting, but unfortunately, there wasn't.

Luis Enrique is truly a great coach at PSG, and now he will certainly try to bring PSG back to the trophy. He now has to find Arsenal's weaknesses, which will certainly be PSG's opponents in the final. Arteta is also a great coach for being able to bring Arsenal to this stage. If Arteta can lead Arsenal to the UCL trophy, it will certainly be popular news, because Arsenal, as far as I know, has never won the UCL trophy. but i want to see arsenal become champions how about you?

PSG is a solid team so it's not out of the ordinary for a majority poll to put them at a higher chance to win than Arsenal but just like odds in matches we can't just conclude on the outcome of the match from votes like this, if the match doesn't come and go we can't tell who is going to win with any certainty.
I personally think PSG has a better chance at winning but what I think isn't what I want, Arsenal has been under for years now when it comes to trophies, at one point they were in a good spot for a quadruple and now they might not even get 2, im just hoping they csn get at least 1.
