Congratulations to Arsenal,
Finally - quarter final.
Although it was very tough. I think they would win the match without penalty shootouts.
It turns out, Porto was not that easy.

Source: Arsenal vs Porto
Arsenal did not experience major problems when taking the penalty shootout. In fact, they didn't need a fifth player, because they were immediately ahead by 4 goals.

Arsenal deserve to be congratulated for the great job they did so today, they were very composed and played without fear till the end despite the pressure from FC Porto.
At this point, I must say that Arteta changed Arsenal mentality to another level, Arsenal is now playing like a team that is hungry for trophy.

A well deserved quarter final for Arteta and Arsenal, Arsenal is indeed among the favorites teams to win the UEFA Champions League because with this performance and fighting spirit, I am sure Arsenal can survive almost all the teams that remain in the tournament.

Arsenal match against FC Porto has been coming a tough match tonight, since no aspect their match is going to last this time Arsenal play the all 90 minutes with a very strong performances and right now the extra minutes has coming to an end the match have already concluded to the final stage which is penalty, and although that penalty is very hard to predict. But shal Nevertheless let wait and see what can happen tonight.

Arsenal is so much in happiness right now for this giant strides because they haven't done this over 14 years ago but this penalty shootout they were able to scale through, Trossard, Saka and Martinelli were very instrumental in this win together with other players as well as the manager of the Arsenal, Arteta. I'm happy for the club right now

Barca had an easy win, but Arsenal's game went to penalties. Now whoever is lucky will go through. There's not much strategy, not much tactics in penalties. You need concentration, calmness and a bit of luck. Let's see whether Arsenal or Porto will get the quarter final ticket. I want Arsenal to go through to the next round, but Porto fought well in the two games. If they go through, they deserved it.

The result match between Barcelona vs Napoli is really predictable because before this match begin most people predict Barcelona will be able to overcomes Napoli and it just happend now that without any problem Barcelona can beat Napoli with final aggregate 4-2 and indeed Barcelona was playing with slightly under pressure because Napoli was taking initiative to playing attacking but Barcelona can playing with very effective although they didn't dominate the game but if we see based on the statistics Barcelona is more good from shot on goals

Apparently Porto is became an tough opponent for Arsenal because to eliminate Porto Arsenal have to win this match through an penalty shootout and indeed since the beginning of match both teams were playing carefully and i can see whether it Arsenal and Porto don't want to conceded goals early so that's why during the match both teams didn't gets much opportunities to scores and although lost but i have to says Porto was performing well because they can force Arsenal to play for 120 minutes

Congratulations to Arsenal as they qualify to the quarter finals of the Champions League, after there win Porto with 4-2 penalty shoot out. Arsenal goalkeeper saved the day for them.

This is the first time that Arsenal will qualify to the quarter finals after 2010. Arteta and his men really deserve this. It is a difficult match for both clubs who could not find the back of the net even after the extra time. Arsenal are jubilating on this great victory, and Porto are sad, the fact is that one club must win.

That's right, after failing continuously in the round of 16 for a long time, today Arsenal managed to qualify for the quarter finals through a penalty shootout. David Raya deserves to be named a hero with his two saves, and Rice, Saka, Havertz and Odegaard managed to carry out their duties as executors perfectly. Overall, Arteta has succeeded in building a squad that has a winning mentality, he deserves appreciation.

Previously, many people predicted that Arsenal would be able to turn things around, I didn't expect the match to go to a penalty shootout, luckily Arsenal could break their bad trend of often failing in the round of 16. On the other hand, another Arsenal hero who cannot be forgotten is Leandro Trossard, the goal he scored in the 41st minute opened up Arsenal hopes.

Arsenal, who rarely get appreciation because they often collapse when under pressure, have now succeeded in proving their quality and they are being flooded with praise. Yes, congratulations to the Gunners.

Penalties it was! Congratulations to Mikel Arteta and his boy. They really did him a solid and it was a very intense game. Arsenal is not my team, yet I felt some tension. I wonder how their fans felt, nerve-wracking I'm sure. Porto might have lost today but they really gave Arsenal a run for their money. I have not seen Arsenal work this hard to win a game despite everything they threw at Porto.

Barcelona - Napoli 3-1

A great victory for Barcelona, they played totally attacking throughout the match. From the statistics I see a very good figure, 24 shots taken and 10 shots on goal. Really a good match to watch, a pity for Napoli, in the first leg they had shown that they could get the qualification, but at Camp Nou it is difficult to come out victorious

This is the first time Barcelona has advanced to the quarter finals in the champion league since 2020. it has been 4 years since Barcelona has never been to the quarter finals. maybe because of this year's drawing which brought together Barcelona with a fairly light opponent. although Napoli is actually a strong team but this season since Spaleti left this team struggles to play very badly in local competitions. and in the Italian league Napoli is currently ranked 7th.

With the way the arsenal game is going, I have a feeling that the winner of the tie will be decided through penalties because Arsenal is not ready to lose another knockout tie and Porto is proving to be a very hard but to crack. Even here at the Emirates, they're still giving arsenal a run for their money.

Final 15 minutes to be played before we head into penalties. At this point, it's hard to predict who would win. Prior to the match, we all expected Arsenal to clear Porto with ease but it's not an easy job as we have seen. We're underway!

There are still a few minutes to go, but it looks like the game will go to penalties. Both teams are very cautious, nobody wants to make a mistake and everyone is waiting for a counter-attack for a lucky punch in the last minutes of the game. I would have expected more from Arsenal after the last very good league games but it seems that Arsenal are not yet working as well internationally as they are in the Premier League.

Porto have been really good with their defence line and midfield, I enjoy the way they force the attack on arsenal as well, though they've been having some fatigue from both sides and that is basically because of the long time they played and Pepe can not help but bend to hold his kneels when the ball is not close by. The game has been more intense than I initially thought.

Wendell and Galeno did not convert their penalties. Arsenal, on the other hand, held their nerve and converted them all. After a sacrificial game by Porto, they unfortunately couldn't reward themselves in the end. Even though penalty shoot-outs are always a matter of luck, Porto deserved to progress in my opinion. Arsenal, the clear favorites, simply underperformed in first and second leg.

Getting a draw from Away was the first soon I had that Barcelona has a higher advantage to qualify for the round of 8. They demonstrated dominance of the game from the first half. Napoli tried their possible best, but Barcelona meant the business of eliminating them.

Barcelona won't get the credit they deserve for what they have just done because they're a big team and it is expected of them to qualify. Most of their first-team players are out injured but they still manage to make it to the quarter-finals of the Champions League. That's a pretty good accomplishment. It gets better when you look at how thin their squad is and had to rely on academy teenagers to play for them. That's very impressive.

More credit should also be given to Xavi their coach. He doesn't get enough credit. He's doing a fine work with that club. See how he has managed to bring out the best out of 16 and 17-year-olds. I doubt Xavi but I have to applaud him for the work he's done.

Yeah Barcelona have already dominate the match their now qualify to round of 8 with free peace of mind, Napoli also try put much effort to dominate the match but it couldn't happen due much pressure they received from Barcelona, Napoli have so many of opportunities to put some goals but that doesn't happen because the way perform in the second half was not normal. Napoli should only go and prepare for the next season since Barcelona has send them back home.

Arsenal must use both a defensive and offensive strategy in their match against FC Porto tonight, or they will be defeated by FC Porto once more. I understand Arsenal will play an attacking game because they need to win tonight, but they should also come back to defend everything because if FC Porto takes the lead in this match, Arsenal will have a difficult time achieving victory. FC Porto is known for their strong defensive performance in games, so Arsenal breaking through to score an equaliser will be difficult once FC Porto have taken the lead in this match. I just want to see how tonight's match will turn out to be.

Ita already pas 30 minutes into the game and I see a very balanced game between both teams as they are both effectively forcing the attack and at same time keeping their defense safe enough against any kind of penetration by their opponent, Arsenal is really looking for an opportunity to get a counter attack upon which they will capitalize you get the scoreboard balanced but it's not looking like that's what they case will be.

It was in the second of the match, that Arsenal broke Porto's defense in 41 minutes of play to score a goal in the first half, Since then, they unable to score to change the scoreline to 2-0 in victor of them(2-1 aggregate).

Arsenal vs Porto has but a few minutes to end the match with a 1-1 aggregate. The next thing will be a penalty shootout to determine which team makes makes it to the next round. I predict Arsenal to

Arsenal Vs Porto has been tougher than I expected, I was really hoping for arsenal to win the game on a regular 90 minutes play with a second goal after the first one, because they've been really impressive with their numbers of goals lately, however I think this game will definitely end up in a penalty shootout, It's 110 minutes played already.

Porto have been really good with their defence line and midfield, I enjoy the way they force the attack on arsenal as well, though they've been having some fatigue from both sides and that is basically because of the long time they played and Pepe can not help but bend to hold his kneels when the ball is not close by.

Few minutes of normal time left to play and Arsenal is still leading by just 1-0, which means it's still 1-1 on aggregate. If it ends like this the match will head to extra time.
I'm more interested in the people who thought this was going to be an easy win for Arsenal. How do you people just underestimate Porto that much? These guys won Arsenal in the first leg and somehow people believed they didn't stand a chance in the second leg?
I know Arsenal are favourites but how can their fans believe Porto doesn't stand a chance? Is Arsenal really that good? I don't think Arsenal is so good to the extent of walking over any of the remaining teams. There will be no easy matches at this stage of the Champions League.
It's the Champions League, not the English Premier League.

I don't think Arsenal underestimates Porto, maybe the fans, but the players certainly do not. Seems like to extra time we'll be headed, because after 90' with a 1 all aggregate, a winner has got to emerge tonight. G. Jesus just came on as substitute and am sure in the few minutes he would play, the impact would surely be felt. I just hope he doesn't get sloppy incase he has a chance in front of goal.

Barca on the other hand has delivered on the results of today's match by winning Napoli with goals from Cancelo, Christensen and Lewandowsky. It's just too bad Osimhen couldn't score to help his side secure a win.

Arsenal were forced to go to extra time to seal a ticket to the next round. It was not easy for the Gunners to achieve victory even though they previously received the top title. It is not easy to beat Porto because they are one of the experienced teams in this tournament. It will be interesting for us to wait for the remaining minutes that will pass.

Meanwhile, Barcelona has been able to seal a ticket to the next round. Lewandowski was able to achieve a convincing victory over Napoli so that they were able to win 4-2 on aggregate. Congratulations to Barca, they were able to prove their capacity in the UCL.

The match between Arsenal and Porto proved to be a tough battle, with both teams approaching the game with caution, resulting in a scarcity of goals. Each team exhibited sincerity in their efforts, surprising many, including myself, with Porto's improved performance compared to their lackluster showing in the first leg. Initially, I anticipated Porto would adopt a defensive strategy, but they defied expectations by playing more aggressively, albeit still being mindful of their defensive responsibilities. Arsenal mirrored this cautious approach throughout the game.

As the match entered extra time, it became increasingly difficult to predict the eventual winner and qualifier for the next round, as both teams demonstrated their determination and skill on the pitch. Regardless of the outcome, I will feel genuinely happy for whichever team emerges victorious, as both have shown they deserve success through their commendable performances.

Really a good match to watch, a pity for Napoli, in the first leg they had shown that they could get the qualification, but at Camp Nou it is difficult to come out victorious

The main important factor that caused the outcome to differ was the quality of the players barcelona has been owning some players that was controlling the mid. Ez match predicts how Napoli can catch up to Barcelona. It was even worse, and the new coach appears to be unable to help Napoli recover from its poor performance since he has been recruited recently and two losses from three matches. Poor napoli has been officially eliminated from the UCL, which is disastrous for the club and it's very disappointed result. It is likely that Roma will be unable to play in the UCL next season. Barcelona's mentality improved significantly when the club played at home, and I believe you understood how much of an impact playing at home had on Barcelona and this si the biggest factor that helped the club to play even more persistent. That was why it became so offensive. Napoli used the same strategy as Barcelona. that's one of Napoli's mistakes. I could put more players in midfield and defense.
Napoli's defenders are also performing poorly in this match. I'm sure the majority of people expect Barcelona to win this game. Their bet was absolutely correct and ez money for all of us.

Now, Rrahmani has just scored 1 goal.
One more goal is Napoli's target to advance to the next round. Hopefully happen.

Still 1 goal down but this makes the match exciting to watch again hehe. Bookies are having a good time adjusting the odds for this one hehe.

Arsenal is having more trouble that I anticipated. I thought they would take the lead quickly, or at least in the first half. There is still 20 minutes to go, but who would have thought that Porto would have some very promising attempts? This will probably be a close game unless Arsenal finds the trigger and finally scores. I went with Arsenal taking the lead in the first half.

Porto are expecting Arsenal to start and apply pressure early but they seem prepared for that. Impressive defensive stops so far. I think this is going to be a battle of attrition and one mistake could change the whole game.

And there it is.... Now a 1-1 on aggregate.

I was quite sure that Arsenal - Porto would not go into overtime... But Porto is playing a clever strategy. They are not too defensive, which is important because if there were parking the bus all the time, it often goes wrong at some point when the opponent is technically strong team like Arsenal. They would raise the pressure until they would break through for sure for a second time. In this game Porto is dangerous enough to have chances almost all the time and Arsenal can't throw everything at their offensive game as they are busy enough defending against the dangerous Porto attacks. There is a little advantage now for Porto because Porto doesn't care about a penalty shootout. In fact, this is an integral part of their game plan. Arsenal - in contrast - doesn't want to have to go through penalties as their biggest advantages was playing in front of their own audience, not to go into penalty shootout. An exciting game and it doesn't like more goals can be expected for now.

A very good performance today for the Barcelona team and a victory well deserved cause they were the better team tonight as they were able to attack so well and dis a very good job in the defense because at some point in the second half the Napoli team were all out pushing out but after 20 minutes the Barcelona team took of the midfield and had more control of the all as they keep using counter attacks to pressure the away team till the end of the game. From my personal observations Barcelona enjoyed the home advantage just like what Napoli did in the first leg so I think both teams have had their time but Barcelona in the second leg today proved once again to be the bigger and stronger team as they won 3:1 on aggregate, congratulations to them.
