Barcelona has now gotten their two extra goals in the second half making it 1:4 against Crvena after a shot from Raphinha hit on the woodwork and Lewandoski had to hit it again to the back of the net to get the 3rs goal and not long after Riphinha doubled the goal.  Hansi Flick is really getting a comfortable time with this Barcelona team in all competition's, building much confidence and a wild winning mentality in the squad since he arrived.  Barcelona seem to be a favorite in winning the champions league should they continue with this winning streaks for long.
It was an easy match from the start so I'm not too surprised with the result.
2 additional goals scored very quickly in the second half makes Barcelona now more comfortable with a score of 1-4 over FK Crvena Zvezda,

Now Flick will slow down their tempo a bit as they must be satisfied with this result because for now the rotation of players is really well executed so 3 points are certainly Barcelona's now.

For today I am actually more focused on Inter's match against Arsenal because indeed when talking about Barcelona they have definitely won but it is different from Inter against Arsenal considering this match is difficult to guess because these two clubs are still big clubs in their respective competitions and now Arsenal are still 1 goal behind Inter which makes them try to increase the tempo with the ball possession they have.

Inter are so far ahead 1-0 over Arsenal, while PSG and Atletico Madrid drew 1-1 until the end of the first half. The second half will of course be even more tense considering that these are two tough matches in my opinion. Regarding Barcelona, ​​they were less calm in this match even though they actually had more advantages than their opponents.
Arsenal haven’t been in their best form lately and their defense have had little to nothing to write home about. I didn’t expect them to beat Inter Milan quite frankly but, am still hoping they could draw this round. They’ve been bad lately, have injury ricking their team but, Arteta could be sure to turn things around for his side. With just about 35minutss on the clock, a lot could happen.
One team that is sure doing their best lately is Barcelona, they’ve always managed to win their game right from the first half and surely, they are winning tonight.

In the second half there should be some consideration for a new scheme because, to be honest, Madrid are still not in the best condition but there is hope for a comeback in the remaining 45 minutes of the second half. Of course the hope is still 3 points in this match because Madrid's chance is still there.


5 minutes of the second half started there was already a very good chance from Milan fortunately Lunin was still very alert to save his goal to concede the third time.

Madrid still seemed to have not learned from the mistakes of the first half which made them seem very weak in defense because there was no tight marking for Milan players and even let Milan attack and get on target.

Although there have been some changes made for now but honestly if the scheme is still the same I don't think there will be any significant changes at this time for Madrid because they have too many internal mistakes from players and schemes.
Their speed and attacking power are also still very hampered especially for some players who seem to be still quite selfish and more concerned with individuals such as several times Vini tried solo runs and even forced shots when there were still several passing options that could still be done.
The results did not change and became even worse. Madrid seemed to lose momentum at the Bernabeu and their problems looked the same as they had against Barcelona the previous week in La Liga.

Some of the things I didn't like in this match were that the players were sometimes a little more selfish in possession, besides some internal mistakes such as wrong passes and schemes that were not very good because they did not try to park the players strictly and care more about that area was also a mistake because with no marking from Madrid players we saw Leao quite comfortable in moving without the ball which made Madrid always troubled in Milan's counter attacks.

1-3 is really very difficult for me to accept but it cannot be denied that the 2 matches at the Bernabeu were really bad for Madrid.

The first half ended 2-1, Lewandowski scored in the 43rd minute, so Barcelona entered the half-time break a little more relaxed. They need to make better use of their attacks in the second half and widen the gap, 2-1 is not a comfortable score. That's why they need to score one or two goals, I think they will find the goal they are looking for early in the second half.

The Red Stars managed to score in the only position they found, apart from that, the entire control of the game belonged to Barcelona, ​​the first half and the second half will not be much different.
Overall I thought this match was a bit boring even though so far in the first half both teams managed to score goals. Barcelona really dominated this match from the start, but FK Crvena zvezda's good defense made Barcelona's attacks less effective. I thought the second half would be no different, but Barcelona were clear favorites to secure the win.

Inter are so far ahead 1-0 over Arsenal, while PSG and Atletico Madrid drew 1-1 until the end of the first half. The second half will of course be even more tense considering that these are two tough matches in my opinion. Regarding Barcelona, ​​they were less calm in this match even though they actually had more advantages than their opponents.

It's like Barcelona had too m uch win Roll Eyes how could they  missing such chances, Raphinha could have sealed at least 1 of the two chance he got since the game stated but he missed it.. now the game is 1-1... I hope they don't get beaten too this time, they are dominating the game but it seem they are loosing chances though the game is still tie , they can do more  than just what they are currently  doing, at the same time it seems the opponent is quite defending more


This season champions League result is just full of surprises, the results that I am seeing are just surprising, and I lost my bets yesterday because I never expected Manchester City to lose their match yesterday.
Sure it did everything has changed, there are no small  team In laliga and the fact that the pattern has changed, there nothing like playing the same team over and over to qualify... there's need to play different team which shows that previous pattern is somehow easy a bit  imo

Although Barcelona have been on a winning spree recently it doesn't mean they just come into this game and get goals seamlessly against crvena zvezda. I understand some of us had hoped for a much goal margin before the end of second half and that's why it's as though Barcelona ain't really into this. Nevertheless, it's now 1:2 with Barcelona now leading after the first 45 minutes of playing time. A goal from Robert Lewandoski assisted by Raphinha making it his 4th goals in 4 matches in the UCL this season.  More goals expected in the second half as it promises to be a full three points for Barca again.

This year's champions league is filled with strange results and that makes me wonder if it would actually be easy to predict a winner in the matches.
This season champions League result is just full of surprises, the results that I am seeing are just surprising, and I lost my bets yesterday because I never expected Manchester City to lose their match yesterday. Manchester City were humiliated in the match, it’s surprising to see a club like Manchester City concede four goals in the match, and Real Madrid also lost to AC Milan. This week's result is just surprising. I won’t be surprised if a club that we never expected will end up winning the Champions League this season because most of the top clubs are performing poorly this season.

Since the first week of the Champions League, I noticed that there will be a lot of surprises in this new format of the Champions league, and this week come with the most shocking surprise because the two top favorite teams to win the Champions League lost shamefully yesterday. I never expected Madrid and Manchester City to lose their matches yesterday because they are looking for ways to take the lead after having some setback in the beginning especially Real Madrid that has already suffered a defeat to Lile.

This evening games is still going on, and some teams we are expecting to win are still struggling to secure their three points. Arsenal is already losing to Inter Milan, while PSG that needs three points are playing 1-1 draw at first half. Barcelona is winning and Bayern is also yet to record a single goal against Benfica. However, let’s wait and see what the second half will have for us because yesterday’s surprises were give in the second half.

Inter vs Arsenal
Inter Milan (confirmed lineup): Yann Sommer, Benjamin Pavard, Stefan de Vrij, Yann Aurel Bisseck, Denzel Dumfries, Davide Frattesi, Hakan Calhanoglu, Piotr Zielinski, Matteo Darmian, Mehdi Taremi, Lautaro Martinez.

Arsenal (confirmed lineup): David Raya, Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel, Jurrien Timber, Bukayo Saka, Thomas Partey, Mikel Merino, Gabriel Martinelli, Kai Havertz, Leandro Trossard.

Not an easy match for Arsenal, they often have difficulty playing away games in the Champions League. Odegaard's status is in doubt even though it has been reported that he has returned to training, while Rice will be absent and several other players. Inter's camp seems to have no problems, they seem more prepared in this match. honestly I doubt Arsenal, the duet of Trossard and Havertz has not shown its solidity. especially, in terms of scoring goals. in this match I tend to discuss Arsenal, because this team is our favorite team. of course I hope The Gunners can get full points, even though they have to work hard with it. based on the betting exchange, bookies do not favor either of these teams. most likely the match will end in a draw, but I hope Arsenal can get full points. in another match, Barca and Bayern, the probability of both teams is very high to win the match. well, it has started let's watch.

H. Çalhanoğlu last minute goal made a difference in the first half to give Inter the lead. It was an interesting first half and good performance from both teams, but on the 45+2 minutes Mikel Mireno handball inside his box gave Inter a penalty kick. H. Çalhanoğlu who is Inter best penalty player was able to find the back of the net to open the scoreline. H. Çalhanoğlu has never missed any of his penalty. I hope Arsenal will be able to come back in the second half, but I don't see how they can penetrate Inter defense easily. The first half is over and the match ended 1-0.

Isn’t that what the Champions League is? Every strong team will compete and even the underdogs will win. Real Madrid was my favorite but Milan destroyed them in Spain. Who could have predicted that? This is what the Champions League shows us. Sporting Lisbon defeated Manchester City. Imagine if this score had been in the last 16, Manchester City would have probably been eliminated. The new format of the Champions League is great.

This year's champions league is filled with strange results and that makes me wonder if it would actually be easy to predict a winner in the matches. Yesterday we saw several teams that ought to win their matches, lose miserably. For instance,  Real Madrid, Leipzig, Manchester City were all expected to win their matches, but they all lost by big margin. I don't know if a repeat will happen tonight against Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Arsenal and PSG. I think Barcelona will definitely win their match.

The result they are coming with this season just what is confusing everyone is that we can not be able to get the clubs that will win the champions league. The winner can not be known for now and it is even making the whole league boring.  And even girona and Real Madrid lost yesterday after bragging that Real Madrid can not lose to Ac Milan, it was as if it was an imagination, Madrid wss beating 3:1 even with the full squad, and the fact that we also lost that is Manchester City, this season champions league is more of wonders to me, if the champions are losing then who is going to win the league? We won't have a choice than to wait to see who is going to take it up and win so their is no certain prediction for now. Till when the league is coming to an end then we are going to know exactly who is going to win.

I still remember before I said about the top three teams in the Champion League standings are three Premier League teams, and they are Liverpool, Aston Villa and Manchester City. But anyway, the reality is that currently only Liverpool are left who are still able to survive at the top of the Champions League standings after Liverpool managed to win with a score of 4-0 against Bayer Leverkusen. But unfortunately, I don't understand about Aston Villa and Manchester City who both suffered defeats which basically they can still avoid defeat. Especially about Aston Villa who played very badly because after all, even though Aston Villa was 1-0 down by Club Brugge, but Aston Villa still played badly so Aston Villa followed Manchester City who had previously lost with a landslide score also against Sporting with 4-1.

Very humiliating defeat as such, it's not funny again, I think Carlo anceloti got work to do, I never expected such out of bound home defeat by AC Milan to Real Madrid, yea, mbappe has not fit in to Realmadrid pattern of play, this is a problem, Realmadrid is great team, though i know that much is expected of mbappe but the truth is, he may not adapt this season, my question is, would the continue waiting for him to adapt as things keep getting out of hand, why over tasking him when there are other players that can actually be helping out, real Madrid is a good team and I believe as a team if a player is not giving their best other players can do that, irrespective of how much mbappe is worth, what matters is the team success and as it stands the success of Realmadrid is in serious jeopardy, for me, this is the best time for carlo anceloti to act.

Though no team is above losing  but Real Madrid has got a team of world class players thats capable of withstanding some kind of pressure, talking about Realmdrid formation last season, it's also a good idea if the manager try it out but for me I think all hope should not be centered on 1 player, Real Madrid yesterday result was very devastating and uncalled for, though bet were lost which is also not good but the major thing is the team.
This is the problem, Real Madrid built yet another "los galacticos" according to them, at the start of the season they were expected to do a lot better. Last season they had Joselu at the striker position and he was so bad that they decided to play without him in so many games, this year they added Mbappe to that position so everyone assumed Real Madrid would win every game.

Looking at how they are doing, they lost to Lille, and now they lost to Milan, these are not acceptable losses. If they faced and lost to some other big team, like when they lost to Barcelona, or if they faced City and lost there, those would be fine. But right now they are losing to teams which are beneath their level as well and nobody wants to see that. I do not know what they will do to recover, maybe they can figure out a way to get better and change their strategy and place the players in different positions, but they need to change something before things get worse.

Yesterday, I predicted that the Real Madrid vs. Milan match could end in a Milan victory. Ancelotti’s team is packed with world-class players, but that hasn’t helped them secure wins. I still believe Real is in a crisis, and no amount of star player signings will fix it. Since Mbappe joined, their performance has only declined. Mbappe and Vinicius struggle to find chemistry on the field. Additionally, there’s no real replacement for Kroos, who I think was the team’s leader. Now, with no clear leader, Real is facing an internal power struggle. Until that’s resolved, I don’t expect them to play effectively.

Sporting Lisbon 3- 1 Manchester City

Wonders shall never end. Manchester United just got a good coach. Sporting is now leading by three goals to one. Manchester City have been given some sharp blows. Araujo and Gyokeres just got two sharp goals. Ruben Amorim is showing that he has what it takes to bring back United back to winning ways. City is well known for coming back from a loss to win or draw games. Pep Guardiola will tell his boys to keep attacking.

Sporting's impressive 4-1 victory over Manchester City in the latest round of the UEFA Champions League was a significant achievement, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that Ruben Amorim has everything it takes to transform Manchester United and bring them back to winning ways. Sporting’s success was driven largely by the influence of their in-form team of players with Viktor Gyokeres leading the attack. I think the entire team showed remarkable unity and coordination, proving that teamwork could be a key factor in overcoming one of Europe’s strongest teams.

Barcelona (confirmed lineup): Inaki Pena, Jules Kounde, Pau Cubarsi, Inigo Martinez, Gerard Martin, Marc Casado, Frenkie de Jong, Lamine Yamal, Pedri, Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski.
Good, I see a slight difference in Barcelona's main line-up in this match. Hansi Flick started Gerard Martin instead of Alejandro Balde at left back, while Gavi, Dani Olmo and Fermin also sat on the bench. Hansi Flick probably wanted to secure victory from the first half so he didn't want to take too many risks by playing different players than before.

For Barcelona, ​​they are likely to be ranked in the top 8 of the Champions League standings today if they win this match. Having 9 points will clearly give them an advantage over several other teams, you could even be in the top 4 if they able to win by 3 goals or more. The Arsenal vs Inter match will definitely be tense, perhaps the same as the PSG vs Atletico Madrid match.

Things are not going well for Real Madrid and Carlo Ancelotti this season. After their heavy defeat against Barcelona in La Liga, they also lost to Milan at home in the Champions League. I believe a genius like Ancelotti will find an urgent solution, but if he can't, Real Madrid fans will continue to suffer.

Obviously everyone knows that the Real Madrid performance is not going as we all expected this season. Their performance is not even almost what we thought it would look like this season; imagine Real Madrid facing this kind of difficult situation, which is still surprising me. I just hope they will find solutions to their problems. Ancelloti needs to solve his problem before it will affect their title race.

 They are losing points all this while, and Real Madrid's performance has not been in their favour from the start of the season. If they continue this way, Barcelona's chance of getting the La Liga title will be very high. They need to buckle up and do everything possible in the Champions League competition; if not, the title race will also be a difficult thing for them as many other top clubs are also ready for the title this season.

Real Madrid has no game philosophy. There is a system based on memorization and players. Barnebau also conceded 4 points from Barça and conceded 3 points from Milan in the Championship League. Things are definitely not going well in Real.
As I said before, Endrick and Arda must definitely find a place in this team.
Old players are entering the game. A star like Arda is sitting on the sidelines. The players entering the game are in poor form.
By the way, many people bet that Real would win this match, but Milan lost a lot of bets this evening.
I find it hard to believe that Real Madrid lacks a clear game philosophy or cohesion among its players. Conceding four goals to Barcelona and three to AC Milan doesn’t make them a poor team by any means. Real Madrid remains a top-tier club with a rich tactical foundation and a roster of world class players. Carlo Ancelotti is an experienced and accomplished coach, and in my opinion, he shouldn't rely solely on the aging stars. Instead, he should provide more opportunities for the younger players to reach their potential and add fresh energy to the squad.
