Actually one of the main contenders because there are actually other teams too who are still in the  league and ready to contend for the trophy too amongst which i think Bayern Munich is actually looking like one of the best contender aswell after Real Madrid in this trophy and it's actually very fair because they aswell have got a very fair form.and aswell are very much ready to want to get to win the trophy aswell this season.

Bayern Munich hasn't been really doing well in their domestic League so most likely they would want to channel all the efforts in the champions league at this time as it's all thats left of them for a hope to probably getting to win a trophy this season els they my go trophyless this season  again but then Bayern Munich is not in any form weak they have been able to show some form.of good performance in the champions league and has been able to get to this point and I'm not even seeing Dortmund as really promising enough to get to contend for the trophy.

PSG may aswell want to get to the finals too aswell because it has been their biggest dream to always get to win the champions league trophy  and getting to the finals will means a whole lot and possibilities  for them to get an opportunity to be able to get an opportunity to win the champions league this season but then even if they don't get to win, getting to the finals is a mile stone achieved for them already.

After the match between Manchester City and Real Madrid, he was asked how he feel about todays match and his answer was "that's the only way to win the game" which implies that in other to win Manchester City at Etihad, you must be quick to make goals from the beginning of the match and then quickly switch to defensive style including the center forward, they defended for the rest of the minutes after Rodrigo gave them first goal in the 12 minutes of the game, that lame excuse for people calling this a luck.


There is no way for any team to have much shot on target when they defended the whole minute. The only time the center forward make attempts for shortnon target is when they notice that Manchester City has change to attacking style and weren't paying much attention to defend, that's when they attack. This was why Gearlish had a  yellow card for fouling Bellingham when they had no man left to defend because he was about to attack and score.

This would be a very difficult discussion if Tuchel and Bayern Munich were really to win the Champions League. He was the coach for about 1.5 years by the end of the season. He won the Bundesliga title last season although it was close, but a title is a title and nobody will ask questions about it in a few years from now. But if we assume that he wins the Champions League against teams like Arsenal, Real Madrid, Manchester City, PSG, all these top teams, could it still be said that Tuchel was NOT successful when he wins the Champions League? It's tough and of course this season was bad so far, but that title would make everyone forget about what happened. There'd be no more questions asked and nobody would care about the DFB Pokal and the Bundesliga.

Bayern Munich will not be able to breathe freely in the semifinals later they will meet Real Madrid as one of the strong teams and even predicted Real Madrid will become champions.
After beating Manchester City now the next challenge is Bayern Munich actually this will not be easy but I'm sure Real Madrid can pass it.

Unfortunately there is no more race for English clubs they will refocus on the Premier League because it is still quite tight until now.

Sometimes what we see in statistics does not show the actual results I mean there are other considerations that could be used as a reason, when you see Manchester City can control the match from all sides and recorded 33 shots that's normal because they were playing at home and one goal behind, on the other hand when Real Madrid managed to score the first goal and equalize the aggregate then Real Madrid can change their strategy by playing defensively and they know attacking will risk conceding so there was no other choice, Real Madrid had to end the match with a draw on aggregate. In conclusion, I don't think Real Madrid played badly they just apply the right strategy. If the situation was different and Manchester City scored the first goal then Real Madrid would have controlled the match and recorded more shots.

Looking another side, Champion League is the only one trophy left for Bayern Munich this season after the Bundesliga record stopping by Leverkusen and eliminated from DFP Cup Bayern try to focus with Champion league matches. Near future for qualifying to final round although have many doubt with Bayern opportunity for defeating Real Madrid in semifinal.
Real Madrid had good mentality in champion league match, Carlo Ancelotti scheme very effective last match against Manchester City and solid defense how to stop tactician from Pep Guardiola get difficult against Madrid. For the semifinal winning teams, I think Bayern Munich and Real Madrid have the same opportunity and difficult predicting Madrid or Bayern will to final.

Historically true, but who knows if a miracle can happen here since real madrid is the only strong club in UCL, given that Real Madrid is also up against such strong competition in the upcoming game since it's gonna face bayern which is equal to the real madrid like when it faced city. Bayern will be the next obstacle for Real Madrid to get its 15th UCL trophies. The only problem is that we are in UCL, and any surprise can happen at any time, which would be disastrous if Real Madrid lost to Bayern Munich caused by bayern munich was not in good condition this time. it must be noted that if munich was bottle jobs on bundesliga current season.
Madrid has a much stronger mentality than the other club which is guaranteeing the club to play better. This is why this club has won the majority of UCL trophies compared to the other club. The upcoming game against Bayern Munich will be another difficult game for Madrid. Bayern appears to be in poor form, but they are still capable of reaching the semi-finals.

I wouldn't call it luck because Bayern has consistently defeated its opponents since the group stage and it's still stable till this time. I hope tuchel will not be fired if he can help Bayern Munich win the Champions League like what he did to the chelsea a few years ago. He has only ever done it on Chelsea and he needs a half of season to make it happen. This is why Madrid should always be cautious about it caused by tuchel probably knew how to counter it.
I believe Ancelotti was totally aware of Chelsea's victory over Madrid a few years ago. Ancellotti may put more awareness to how to avoid repeat the same mistake. There haven't been many changes to the real Madrid composition. This could be a key to Tuchel's success against Madrid in the upcoming game and he may also able to leave from the big pressure after bayern will get a win against madrid.

It's obvious that I'll watch this match rather than the one between Dortmund and PSG.

Just like i said before because Bayern Munich chances to gets the trophy only from this competition then i am sure Tuchel will be focusing his target to gets champion league trophy and unlike Real Madrid who still fight for Laliga title but Bayern Munich have no target anymore in Bundesliga because Leverkusen is Bundesliga champion of this season so Bayern Munich can switch their target to Champion League so i am sure they will go all in for the semifinal match later and Real Madrid should beware of them because not impossible Bayern Munich can beat them and reach to the final match

And about Tuchel i think we shouldn't be underestimate him because although Ancelotti is more experienced than him but Tuchel is specialist tournament too and besides bringing Chelsea to gets Champion League trophy for the first time Tuchel also can successfully to bringing PSG to advances to the final match on 2019/2020 season but unfortunately at that time PSG have to lost from Bayern Munich and about the match against Real Madrid i am still sure this team potentially can makes Real Madrid gets in trouble

I am not entirely sure if Real Madrid played that well. I mean it is obvious that Manchester City played much better, and they had like 33 shots, and looking at the result Real Madrid still managed to knock them off. Which shows you that sometimes it is not really about how "well" you play, but your strategy means something as well.

Real Madrid defended the whole game, and they didn't really try to score at all, they were fine with penalty shootout and they just focused on that and won thankfully, I feel like they played terrible. City on the other hand played much much better, and yet they still lost and that must say something about their style, if they are incapable of scoring out of 30 shots, then there is something wrong with the team.

Bayern Munich were previously also very doubtful to qualify for the semi-finals after their poor performance in the league this season, but in fact they have now managed to enter the semi-finals by beating Arsenal who are favourites to win the game, in my opinion for now Bayern Munich should no longer be underestimated, yes indeed Madrid is a strong team in the Champions League but I think there are still weaknesses and opportunities that might be exploited By Bayern Munich in the match against Madrid later, for now honestly I not dare say if Real Madrid will be able to win easily against Bayern Munich in the semi-finals later because indeed both have the same chance to win.

Besides, doesn't Madrid now have to focus on two competitions namely La Liga and also the Champions League, and of course it will make their concentration a little divided if the Champions League schedule will be a little closer to the La Liga schedule, that's why, I think it's important for Madrid now to continue winning in La Liga so that they can no longer be chased by rival teams in the league and make them able to focus fully on the game The Champions League, while Bayern Munich, which has been confirmed to no longer be possible to chase the Bundesliga trophy, of course they will fully focus the Champions League as the main target of winning the trophy this season.

I really want the final match between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, but instead they meet in the Semi-Finals, which is not right in my opinion, but the Semi-Finals match will really be a club that really has the quality and mentality of the champions, but I have a little prediction about who will win.  will come out as Champions this season, from my point of view it seems that Bayern Munich is a strong candidate to win the Champions League title this season, because usually the club that stumbles at the start of the qualifying group will be the winner, of course this is just speculation from my point of view for  looking at the last few seasons.

Remembering yesterday's hot match between Real Madrid and Manchester City, I think Real Madrid is indeed a strong team this season to be able to win the title. with their next match being against Bayern Munich, I think Real Madrid can win, considering that Real Madrid is a strong team at the moment while Bayern Munich is reportedly experiencing a slight decline in their playing performance.

Apart from that, I think Real Madrid has the advantage of being able to win against other teams, but even so, no one can rule out the possibility that Real Madrid will experience defeat, maybe there is a team that can beat them later which will surprise Real fans. Madrid. I also think Real Madrid has strong self-confidence, with its matches always being optimal.

Honestly, I wanted that so bad for them, to just focus on the Premier League Competition. I still believe in my heart that they will be able to win the Premier League Competition. All hope's are not lost until the last days of the Premier League Competition, this is the time for them to go harder. Can anybody tell me if there's a dispute between Mikel Arteta and Thomas Partey? Is it that he wants him to be fully fit so as to avoid further injuries? Why dump him on the bench when he should have been brought on against Bayern Munich and even Aston Villa to boss and support Declan Rice in midfied? Why?

Props to Bayern Munich, but it seems like they will also be knocked out of the Champions League Competition soon against Real Madrid.
Any doubts with that. We can go ahead to even say that, Real Madrid would definitely win this Champions League Competition! We'll see to that.

Arsenal will learn their lesson from this quarter-final lock out, they experienced from Bayern Munich because they have the opportunity to make the game to end up in penalty shootout to draw the game but selfish game made them to lose in the game.

 I guess Bayern Munich coach deserves more honor from their president because he did the same thing to Arsenal again, by beaten Arsenal with 1:0 to qualified for semi-final again because many people thought that Bayern Munich coach will not make it happen but he make it happened in his tenure.

 Arsenal performed well in this season, to got to this stage because many strong teams has been deleted from the UEFA champions league competition, but Arsenal made it to quarter-final before Bayern Munich deleted them from the tournament.

It cannot be said that Tuchel was successful with Bayern Munich. Because Bayern Munich cannot win the Bundesliga title this season. And Bayern Munich's performance is also quite erratic. But still I would say tuchel is not a bad coach. Chelsea won the Champions League in the 20-21 season with the help of Tuchel. Chelsea did not have a strong squad. Tuchel's mastermind is what made a mediocre team like Chelsea win the Champions League title.

Ancelotti is an experienced coach. Moreover, the Real Madrid team is also very strong and experienced. Even so, the semi-final match will be very competitive. Tuchel will try his best to qualify for the final. Now Tuchel's only goal is to win the Champions League title. So it will not be easy for Madrid to beat the Munich team. Both teams have a 50-50 chance of winning.

As a Real Madrid fan they've always been my favorite team to win the UEFA Champions League title this season and my belief was backed by the signing of Jude Bellingham which I think will bring solution to the problem of Real Madrid last season that they were embarrassingly eliminated from the competition by Manchester City. Now that they were able to eliminate Manchester City and progress to the semi finals of the competition, they'll have to beat Bayern Munich in a two legged tie to reach the final of the competition which I think is very possible but difficult as well.
Bayern Munich last weekend lost their German title defense as Bayer Leverkusen were crowned German champions for the first time in their history and that I think will make them put in their best energy to win the UCL this season. So for Real Madrid to reach the final they must be at their best

Although Bayern Munich managed to qualify for the semifinals but still, the fact is that the match in the semifinals later will be really difficult for Bayern Munich. The reason is, Bayern Munich meets Real Madrid in the semifinals, as we alreadyknow that Real Madrid is the king of Europe because Real Madrid is the only team that has managed to getmany Champions League trophies. Therefore, it does not matter the situation and conditions of the Bayern Munich and Real Madrid teams in the semifinal match later because of course, basically Real Madrid is always the favorite team in the Champion League. But indeed, great expectations certainly occur in Bayern Munich because Bayern Munich already lost their trophies this season in the domestic league,so Bayern Munich's hope to win trophies this season is only in the Champions League but unfortunately, it is difficult to achieve it.

You're right regarding Bayern's mental toughness against Arsenal's problems. Arsenal is hard to see. They've been Champions League ghosts since the 2006 final misery. The Aston Villa loss showed major composure issues. How can you stand tall against Bayern if you bow under pressure against weaker teams? Bad look.

Bayern, on the other hand, have been inconsistent and falling in the Bundesliga. Their desire to prove themselves after missing the league title? This is risky in Champions League. That chip-on-your-shoulder energy causes upsets. When discussing a Bayern-Real Madrid semi-final? Ignore it. This historic rivalry between two powerhouses is explosive. Bayern's steely drive could beat Real.

Obviusly Real Madrid is right now the main contender to the title but in this stances we can expect some shaking results also someones for PSG or Bayern side, they have the players to do that, but need the teamwork and recover the faith in themselves in the case of Bayern for example, and Tuchel knews this.

You are right because like I already mentioned champions league is a league that involves experience but Arsenal on the other hand are very good in performance but lack champions league experience because majority of their players are mostly young stars and they have not been on champions league more often compare to Barcelona, so even when Arsenal draw their first match with Barcelona I was even surprise because all my mind was that since Barcelona has been very good and experience in terms of champions league they would easily win Arsenal but they managed to play draw on the first match.

However with the  way Barcelona has peak form on the middle of this season surprises me so if they could play this good with their current players I wonder how far they will go when will they buy more experience players, however their match against Real Madrid will be the most toughest match on the champions league semifinals because all the interest will be on that Match because people are curious to know what the outcome will be.
