To be honest Madrid defeat surprised me a lot and even most of us here will not think that Madrid can lose quite miserably to Milan, before the match starts, I personally see that Madrid has a bigger advantage to win the matc, in addition playing at the Bernabeu, of course the difference in the performance of the two teams is very different at the moment,  Milan haven't been able to find their best form so far but in the match against Madrid of course they looked very spartan, I think this defeat shows that Madrid need to improve some aspects of their game, especially in defence and finishing.

In addition from Madrid who got a negative result this week, Manchester City also continued their slump by also getting a defeat from Sporting, despite being able to take a quick lead in that the match through Foden, but the incredible comeback from the Amorim squad made Manchester City extend their losing list to 3 consecutive matches, I think not only the Sporting fans smiled after the victory,  But it seems that Manchester united fans are also starting to look happy at this time seeing their new coach candidate can destroy their main rival .

Both Barcelona and Liverpool's performances were erratic last season. But these two teams are in very good rhythm so far this season. Liverpool have won all four of their matches in the Champions League. and have occupied the top spot in the points table. At the same time, the top position of the Premier League is also occupied by Liverpool.

Barcelona are in a very good position after Hansi Flick became the coach of Barcelona. Barcelona have performed very erratically last season. However, Barcelona's overall performance this season is very good. At the same time Lewandowski, Yamal, Olmo and Raphinha are able to perform well in every match. The two teams fit to dominate the Champions League this season are Liverpool and Barcelona.

But it was the same Ancelotti and his tactics that made real Madrid unstoppable last season? How is it that all of a sudden the tactics are no longer good? Don't you think that there is a bad egg in the Madrid team which wasn't there last season? The Madrid players are not doing well not because of Ancelotti tactics, these players are probably not at their best or they are intentionally doing that so that Ancelotti will be sacked. The Madrid players are always getting lots of scoring chances but they keep missing it and why is that. Their play is not that bad but why is that all of a sudden Madrid has fallen so bad. For me the introduction of Mbappe to this real Madrid side is killing the team. Because their is no other explanation to their falling this season.

Oh mate, we thought it all wrong, the result of the game took a different dimension as AC Milan was rather the better side in match given an embarrassing 1:3 defeat to Real Madrid at home. The poor performance rather came from the home team with their poor defensive high lines that lacked solidity, and inability to take control of the midfield additional to lack of shots accuracy in their quest for goals. In fact, there was no connections between the players, and I think it's high time Ancelotti talk to his squad about team's effort and coordination rather theu focusing much on individual abilities to win games, the tactics isn't working fine for them anymore.

Real Midred and Manchester city cut many people ticket yesterday, because they failed to win their games in the UEFA champion league game, for AC Milan to beat Real Midred 1:3 show that something is wrong with Real Midred players in this tournament because they have potential squads in this season to face AC Milan to secure victory, but their display was very poor. I still have hope on Real Midred, that they will recover all those losses to top the table before the end of this tournament but it will be hard for them to win this UEFA champions league trophy base on their early displayed.

Liverpool and Barcelona are the major teams to lift the trophy because they are playing well to increase their points to maintain a good position that will lead one of the team to lift the trophy.

Mbappe is crap and he deserved to be benched. Actually, zero contribution from him in our last two games. I don't like to see him as a part of the starting line-up. We played so badly with him on our side.

It's also pathetic to see Ancellotti freeze out Endrick and Arda. He made them just stood by and watched as their club got massacred. I don't know what the hell is wrong with the old man. He seems to be so clueless and has no trust to the young players to help the club.

Actually, right now we seem to see Real Madrid playing like they are not Real Madrid. They have everything they need except for several injured defenders which weaken their defense. But that's not the only problem. because Real Madrid's front line actually looks the most perfect compared to other teams. but what we see is that they continue to fail to take advantage of every opportunity they get.

But the surprise didn't just come from Real Madrid's defeat by AC Milan. But a surprise also came from the Sporting CP vs Manchester City match. Where Manchester City suffered a crushing defeat with a score of 4-1. In this match, Manchester City also had more opportunities and dominated the game very well. but who knows what happened, Manchester City always failed to complete their attacks. Manchester City's defeat felt even more disappointing for me.

Before this match begin everybody talking about Real Madrid chances for this match that they have good advantages to collect 3 points because playing at home besides that previously they also has successfully to make epic comeback from Dortmund so most people have predict this match will belongs to them especially AC Milan is still required more time to adapt with new manager but all of people predictions were missed because surprisingly AC Milan can beat Real Madrid

There are big difference for Real Madrid that last season Real Madrid has Kroos and this season they were playing without Kroos and for last match yesterday i can see it that there was no other players who can replace Kroos position as a playmaker and the players such as Modric or Bellingham failed to control the game so this makes Vinicius and Mbappe didn't gets much ball supply to create the opportunity to scores and i can see some players just like Vinicius or Militao looks frustrate about this condition

Real Madrid did the same thing as they hosted Barcelona at the Santiago Bernabeu, both were home games for Real Madrid, but they failed to get even 1 point in both games. This is not the Real Madrid I know, have they lost their confidence as a team?

On the other side, we also saw a surprise made by Sporting CP, even though they are strong in the domestic league, but this time their opponent is Manchester City, I didn't expect them to be able to destroy and humiliate Manchester City with that result.

Yesterday's match results are surprised result Result, who will tell me that he expected Real Madrid and Manchester City to lose their match yesterday? Nobody expected this big team to be defeated by another team yesterday, but for Liverpool against Leverkusen, I know that will happen because Leverkusen is not good at challenging Liverpool, even in the first half of the match when Liverpool did not score I didn't worry about it because the match show that Liverpool will win the game, Manchester City lose to sporting yesterday and I believe that Manchester City is not that good team we use to know again because Manchester City is not that strong as they are before, and looking at how things is going Manchester City can not win the league title this season.

And about Real Madrid, I think this is the right time for Ancelotti to leave the team, Ancelotti has been a good coach for Real Madrid and he has made Real Madrid become a successful club but I think he needs to leave before he gets sacked, From the beginning of this season Real Madrid have not been the same Real Madrid we all know, Real Madrid performance this season is very poor and Ancelotti is also confused, I won't blame Ancelotti for what is happening to Real Madrid now but he is old and he can't control the team again, Real Madrid fault is all over the players but the position that is not good is the midfield and the defensive position of Real Madrid, Real Madrid need to sign players in January if not they will end up without any trophy this season.

Vinicius and Bellingham can play well together, last season showed that, but Mbappe is clearly falling out of the team game, he's been doing about the same thing for the last few matches. Like in the last match against Barcelona Mbappe opens up, runs down the right flank and shoots at goal and Mignan also knew it well and therefore had no problem reflecting his shots, so apparently Ancelotti has a difficult choice to make.
On the other hand Mbappe is not the first star player who, when moving from one top club to another, failed to show all that he is capable of and you can remember Coutinho, who after coming to Barcelona almost ended his career or Neymar, who on the contrary, when moving from Basrelona to PSG, gradually played worse and worse, got injured and eventually left for the Saudi championship.

Real Madrid and Manchester City both dominated the match, but they were not maximizing their chances. The statistics and final score of the match were very different, Out of 20 shots, only 1 resulted in a goal. Vinicius scored from the penalty spot while Manchester City goal was scored by Foden early in the match. If I may compare the two, Real Madrid played worse than Manchester City because they were massacred in their proud stadium even though Ancelotti fielded a full core of players in this match.

Statistics of Real Madrid and Manchester City when they were slaughtered by their opponents in Match 4 of the UCL.

Real Madrid and Manchester City performed the worst in the Champions League last night and their luck was not on their side. Real Madrid lost 3-1 against AC Milan and they lost points, Real Madrid has lost two matches in the Champions League so far this season. Real Madrid is currently very low on the points table, moreover Manchester City also did not play well against Sporting. Manchester City lost 4-1 against Sporting due to which they lost their points, and Sporting is currently in the second position in the Champions League points table. However, Real Madrid's current points are 6 and they must go a long way to advance where Liverpool is at the top with 12 points. Of course, we can choose Liverpool as the strongest team at the moment, they are still performing well in every match, maybe they can be the favorites in this Champions League.

Well, this will be quite a tough UCL for Real Madrid. because in the remaining matches I think Real Madrid cannot afford to lose again. Because Real Madrid must immediately get a more comfortable ranking for them, such as getting into the top 8. And actually it would be quite surprising if Real Madrid had to qualify for the next stage through the play-offs. I really hope that doesn't happen. Ancelotti must be thinking very hard at the moment. because a defeat like this is actually not something that Real Madrid usually experiences. But yes, the weakening of Real Madrid's defense is also caused by the absence of two of Real Madrid's mainstay defenders who are currently still injured. So that Real Madrid's back line is really not as solid as usual. In the next UCL match, Real Madrid will face a team from Italy again, namely Atalanta. I hope Real Madrid will be more careful at that time because Atalanta has always brought many surprises since last season.

Neverlusen was handled to them the hard way with no goal to show for when the faced a fantastic playing Liverpool thanks to the brilliance of Diaz and team that got 4 passed Hradecky...

Elsewhere Real Madrid and Manchester City back on their losing runs in the champions league and things are not looking good for the best teams in the world, and with how things are going these guys road could be coming to an end, and can't imagine a champions league without the best team in the world .

Real Madrid have more experienced human resources than AC Milan from coach to players but in this match, they failed at their home stadium. AC Milan were even in a bigger crisis than Real Madrid but again they shown that in Champions League, AC Milan are a strong team with Champions League DNA. Real Madrid have many things to beat AC Milan in this match but they failed and continued their crisis in Champions League. With a new format of Champions League, Real Madrid actually feel some kind of pressure that they will have to leave Champions League this season very early.

Mbappe does not suit with a striker position but Real Madrid hoped that he can adapt to this position with time. He did not do it well and Real Madrid starts to feel importance of a world class striker like Cristiano Ronaldo or Karim Benzema. Injuries also affected Real Madrid in defense system and in this match, they let AC Milan scoring three goals, it's big shock.

My friends and I often talk about the Real Madrid squad during work breaks. And we have almost the same thought, namely that Real Madrid's balance has been reduced after the arrival of Mbappe. Not because Mbappe is bad. But it seems like several players in the Real Madrid squad don't want to lose out on competing with Mbappe there. Which makes Real Madrid team collaboration not as good as usual. The warm atmosphere in the squad faded a little. Ancelotti is an experienced coach and he might be able to bring this squad back to life at some point. But the most important thing is that all the players at this club must return to normal, namely that they work together well and build a good balance again. I hope everything can be resolved soon there. And yes, the defeat by AC Milan was truly unexpected. Moreover, with a quite striking score, namely 1-3.

Real Madrid certainly fielded a strong XI against AC Milan but still had to leave the field with a defeat. I can't seem to understand what could be the reason behind Real Madrid's consistently poor performances. Real Madrid played a 4-4-2 formation in this match only to clean up their game in midfield but still Real Madrid were unable to prevent a goal. Real Madrid managed to score only one goal against AC Milan which came from the penalty spot.

 Mbappe is not able to live up to the expectations that were expected from Mbappe and I don't know why all the other players of Real Madrid are not doing well which is why they are losing regularly. However, Real Madrid should have won this match against AC Milan because Real Madrid was ahead in this match from all sides.

Last season too we saw Madrid win all their Champions League group stage matches to qualify for the next round. But this season, Madrid's performance is not as good as expected. Real Madrid have lost two of their first four matches. And right now Real Madrid is in 17th position in the points table. There is no doubt that Real Madrid are very experienced on the Champions League platform. However, Real Madrid is not able to perform well this season.

It was unthinkable that Real Madrid would perform so poorly against AC Milan. Real Madrid defenders are not able to play well. At the same time the attacking players are not able to score goals despite attacking a lot. I would say Ancelotti should change his match tactics.

Hey Madrid what happened to you?
As a Real Madrid fan of course I am very disappointed with their performance this season especially in the Champions League recently they have not played like in previous years which were very tough and were strong candidates to win the title but it seems like this season they are in trouble with the quality of their game declining even I didn't expect them to lose to AC Milan who have been playing badly lately this defeat is the second painful defeat after their defeat against Barcelona at home.
Vinicius, Mbappe and Bellingham seem to have not found the right chemistry to be able to work together well.
