The score was 3-1, not 3-0 for Real Madrid.
I've just watched the extended highlights of the game and frankly, despite the result, Stuttgart looked like a better team. They absolutely dominated the first half, they had a lot of great chances to score but were just out of luck.
The second half was more even and it was Real who came on the top, but we have to give Stuttgart a due credit. They played a really good football, dominated in ball possession and created better chances. If they keep playing like this, they could turn out to be a dark horse of this season UCL.

You're right, Stuttgart dominated Real Madrid in the first half of the match, behaving like a team that hasn't missed a Champions League match in a long time. In fact, I asked the person sitting next to me during the live game if Stuttgart was the same team that played in the Bundesliga because of how different their performance looked. Maybe they were hiding players to play against Real Madrid in the Champions League because they had only won two of their previous four league games. Stuttgart's lack of experience against Madrid was clear as they wasted several chances to score, and Real Madrid was lucky to have a quality goalkeeper, if not for him, Real Madrid would have lost the match.

Furthermore, I believe Stuttgart's attacking players need to develop more confidence in the Champions League because they lack scoring experience. To be honest, they played more than we expected, but the victory was not on their side.

Of the matches being played today, Manchester City vs Inter Milan and PSG vs Girona are going to be the interesting one.
Manchester City would be the favorite one against Inter Milan. Not only Manchester City had been on an spectacular form, the match is also being played on Manchester City's home ground. Though they lost the last champions league quarterfinals on home ground, Inter Milan won't be a very difficult competitor for them.
Of PSG and Girona, PSG would be lacking Mbappe but Girona are not even as strong as last year at league while PSG had been consistent with its performance with all wins on matches they have played in league this season.

Real Madrid won by a big margin in the first match of the Champions League. Real Madrid's opponent in the first match was VfB Stuttgart. Real Madrid won 3-0 against VfB Stuttgart. Mbappe scored the team's first goal in the 46th minute but VfB Stuttgart equalized later on, but late on brilliant finishes from both Brazilian strikers ensured Real Madrid won by a wide margin. Both teams managed to score a total of four goals in the full time, but all of these four goals came in the second half. This is not new for Real Madrid, in many matches they are behind by a big margin but they paid for that goal in the second half and won. Congratulations to the beloved team Real Madrid.

If you look at the match of Real Madrid against Stuttgart yesterday you will understand what I said yesterday, before the match I said that Real Madrid is going to find a way to win the match no matter how because Real Madrid is playing in the Santiago Bernabeu and no matter how bad real Madrid play in Santiago Bernabeu they will find a way to win, if we look at the game yesterday you will see that from the first half of the match Stuttgart dominate the game because they come to the field with full confidence that they are going to score goals against real Madrid but they miss the chances.

Real Madrid may play badly but after an opponent of Real Madrid started playing somehow and missing a chance real Madrid will start scoring goals, Real Madrid Madrid has been playing like this now since last season and that is why when Stuttgart is missing a chance I know that real Madrid will win the game, Courtios was good yesterday and I believe that he is the reason why real Madrid win the game yesterday because he makes some save that some goalkeeper can not do yesterday.

this evening we will have a big match.
Mancherster City will play against Inter.
The result should be a win for City.

After the final of the past year we will already have a match with the first 2 teams of the past Champions League.

I think it is never happen before, and it is happened only for the new copy paste from the superliga formula.

Manchester City appears to be the clear favorite in the upcoming match against Inter, given Guardiola’s team’s solid start to the season. City remains unbeaten and in excellent form, with Haaland and De Bruyne performing at their best. Meanwhile, Inter has shown inconsistency, mixing strong wins with unexpected dropped points. Despite having a solid squad and good prospects for the new season, Inter's chances of winning seem slim against City’s dominance. The prediction is a victory for Manchester City.

The opening match of the UCL really seemed quite lively with the number of goals scored in each match, making those of us who watched more enthusiastic and didn't feel bored at all. And hopefully today's match can be as lively as yesterday's match. Regarding Endrick, this young player seems to have very good potential as a talented striker. And maybe in the future he will be relied on much more in Real Madrid's attack line. With him still being 18 years old, I think he still has a long way to go and he still has a lot of time to prove his quality in attack.
There were no surprises in Jornada 1 of the Champions League, all the top teams managed to win, but what was interesting was Bayern Munich who immediately went on a rampage in this jornada 1. Bayern Munich did not waste the opportunity to score as many goals as possible because in this edition of the Champions League, goal difference has a big influence on the standings.
Endrick is truly a special player, he managed to score in his first game in the Champions League, previously he also managed to score when he made his debut in La Liga. At his young age he has shown extraordinary talent, now he can hone his talent even sharper with Real Madrid. Hopefully Endrick and Yamal can revive the Rivalry that once happened between Ronaldo and Messi.

I didn't expect Liverpool will dominated the match and beat Milan by scoring 3 goals, moreover the goal scorers aren't the strikers.

What do you guys think with Club Brugge vs Dortmund match? despite great results by Dortmund, but the moneyline odds Dortmund to win is @2.00, that's high considering Club Brugge is just a Belgium team that not in competitive league. Most of the time, a top teams in noncompetitive league didn't even able to win against mediocre teams in top tier leagues.

Yeah Liverpool are really beyond expectations usually they are never that aggressive when playing away against teams from Serie A but in this match Liverpool deserves appreciation. At first when AC Milan scored the first goal in the 3rd minute then I thought Liverpool was under pressure but in fact Liverpool managed to get out of the pressure and make a comeback, obviously it's amazing. Liverpool still have some strong opponents ahead meaning they have to stay careful.

Regarding the match between Club Brugge vs Dortmund, Dortmund should be slight favorites because they have a better history than Club Brugge but somehow I'm not so sure if Dortmund win the match and there is a possibility that both teams will draw, this is also in line with sportsbook predictions which only offer almost the same odds to both teams. The last meeting between the two teams was 4 years ago and Dortmund always dominated but of course the situation is different now and Dortmund have already released their mainstay players.

Yesterday's games had very predictable results in some cases and in others not. But in most games the results were predictable.

AC Milan 1 - 2 Liverpool

I expected Liverpool to win, but I must admit I was surprised that Milan scored first. But Liverpool's reaction was very good. They reacted very quickly and managed to equalize early on. Yesterday it seemed like Salah wasn't having much luck, shots hit the crossbar. But it was a good game for Liverpool.

Real Madrid 3 - 1 Stuttgart

The first few minutes were very difficult for Real Madrid. Stuttgart played well in the first few minutes, but they missed a lot of good chances. Real Madrid is a giant team with a lot of experience, and they didn't miss the chances they had and won the game. I think Mbappe and Endrick are already getting used to the team. Endrick's shot reminds me a lot of Ronaldo.

Sporting CP 2 - 0 Lille

Sporting has shown itself to be a strong team, they did very well in this game. And Lille, who are not doing well in Ligue 1, were unlucky in this game.

Viktor Gyökeres scores on his first Champions League game ever!

source: https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1836130641303191791

Bayern Munchen 9 - 2 Dinamo

Funny thing about this game is that Bayern scored 3 goals but then conceded 2 goals and it looked like the game would be balanced. But then Bayern started scoring more goals. It was a crushing victory.
As you mentioned, they were predictable matches.
I didn't think Bayern Munich would get such a win, I thought they would win, but wasn't it an exaggeration to score nine goals?  Cheesy
Harry Kane didn't show mercy to the opposing team and listed his goals.

The new UEFA Champions League format seems to stimulates the interests of most of these outstanding clubs and mostly the players. How can we explain about the mid week games and also the weekend games? It will definitely cause fatigue for these players but there's absolutely nothing and everything to worry about. Significant odds are observed and Manchester City sits in front when we talk about EPL clubs that would be capable of reaching top phases in the UEFA Champions League this season. Manchester City will have a long run tonight when they face Inter Milan at Etihad stadium. Pep Guardiola will have to lay down instructive measures towards ensuring he's grabbing the first win in their UEFA Champions League tonight.

I watched the entire match live. Real Madrid won the match. But I see no way to say that Stuttgart played badly in this match. In the first half, the Real Madrid team was completely pressured by the players of Stuttgart. And at the end of the first half, the match was tied at 1-1. The entire scenario of the match changed at the beginning of the second half. Mbappe scored a goal within seconds at the start of the second half. Maybe Real Madrid scored the goal within 40 seconds. And after going 2-1 behind, Madrid's players could not be resisted by Stuttgart.

One of the reasons Stuttgart lost this match was their lack of experienced forwards. Stuttgart's players created several easy scoring opportunities. But even then the players missed easy chances. This was Stuttgart's misfortune. But we got to enjoy a competitive match.
What Real adds in the second half has become a remarkable feature for Real with Ancelotti, and the first half was really quite good from Stuttgart. But I think that few people doubted that Real would be able to beat Stuttgart at the Bernabeu. Juventus beat PSV quite easily, they looked much stronger than their opponent, and it is not clear what happened to them in the matches with Empoli and Roma, why their game is so different from match to match.
Juventus were very good, Real Madrid were very good, but Bayern Munich were excellent. Bayern Munich stunned the world with a nine-goal win. The Croatians were in complete shock. They played like a Second Division team in the Champions League, clearly underdogs. Bayern Munich destroyed them completely.

Juventus proved that they have a much better team than last season when Allegri was working there in Juventus. After losing the Champions League in the last season they are backed in this tournament and this time they are much stronger and have improved with their new coach Motta.
The match against PSV was not easy for Juventus but still, they won the first game of this Champions League with a 3-1 result to have a good start. Now Motta is becoming more famous in Juventus if he can continue this good performance on this team.


Thiago Motta is trying his possible best to make sure he makes Juventus better than it was in the past few seasons and we have clearly seen from the team's performance in the Seria A and including their first Champions League game against PSV yesterday. PSV is known as a team that is always difficult to defeat, they are trying in European competitions, but Juventus proves to the world that they are better than PSV, and they scored three home goals against PSV.
Juventus is another team in the Italian side that will be consider as good competitor in the Champions alongside Inter Milan, but AC Milan has lost its value this season due to poor performances both in the Champions League and their domestic league.

I didn't expect Liverpool will dominated the match and beat Milan by scoring 3 goals, moreover the goal scorers aren't the strikers.
Liverpool was the better side than Milan due to their current form and the players standard. Milan loses form this season that is why despite playing at home, many people expected Liverpool to win the game and Liverpool won.

Looking at the struggles Club Brugge pass through before qualifying to be in the Champions League, I think we should not underrate them because they give a shocking result since Dortmund's form is also nit confident despite been the runner off team last season.

Ancelotti is gradually working his way to be one of the most respected managers in the world right now with the way he uses the Real Madrid club so effectively to win games, titles and trophies. He's also gently becoming one of the best coaches Real Madrid will boast of, in the recent times. Last season was an amazing time for the Real Madrid club with the team winning both La Liga titles and winning the Champions league trophy in the same vain. Just at the start of this 2024/25 tournament, he has won his first match against Stuttgart with a stunning 3 goals to 1, giving Mbappé the platform to shine again.

Liverpool conceded the goal in just 3 minutes. And I thought it would be very difficult for Liverpool to make a comeback in this match. Because after going 1-0 up, AC Milan played a completely defensive strategy. In the first half, I don't see Milan making any more strong attacks. However, Liverpool team was lucky, as well as Liverpool players performed well. Therefore, in the first half, Liverpool's two defenders, Konate and Van Dijk, were able to take the lead.

Liverpool stepped up their attack in the second half. AC Milan players also attacked a lot, but they could not break Liverpool's defense. In the end, Liverpool won an excellent 3-0.

Former Chelsea and United States player Christian Pulisic put one behind Allison Becker as he found that ball too difficult to defend and save. It was a great goal scored which try tried to defend but couldn't as the force from them was just too much. They played good football despite the lose. As for the defending of AC Milan players, I do feel like it was just too poor. Saying Liverpool was lucky yesterday has got to be a huge lie. Did you not see the number of times Mo Salah hit the woodwork with his balls?
I saw the first half completely but the second half I slumbered. Lol.
Shout out to Virgil van Dijk and Konate. They did well to score these goals which served as security purposes.

Juventus and PSV have also never met before and so have Young Boys and Aston Villa. Moreover, I still strongly admit that PSV has also managed to become the best team in the Eredivisie standings but even so, I will still have high hopes for Juventus under Thiago Motta and also about Aston Villa under Unai Emery, because I think they are able to make their teams get good results.
Both teams were showing good temporary performance, entering the 40th minute and Juventus were already 2 goals ahead of PSV Eindhoven, meanwhile Aston Villa who were playing away also led with a small score of 0 - 1. I think we'll see the final score in this temporary result, Juventus and Aston Villa will get 3 points each, and this is a good time to play O/U bet, go for over especially in Juventus - PSV Eindhoven match.

Juventus's performance today was very organized from the first minute of the match, the defense of Juventus team is very strong, we knew that. Juventus' weakness was their forwards. We thought that if the forwards perform well, Juventus will win or they will lose points. But today Juventus' forward players performed well. The team took a 2-0 lead in the first half. Despite leading 2-0, Juventus did not play defensively in the second half. Juventus made several strong counter-attacks. Nicolas' goal at the beginning of the second half gave Juventus a 3-0 lead. Juventus lead 3-0 after 75 minutes. So I don't see any possibility of Juventus losing points in the match.

Juventus proved that they have a much better team than last season when Allegri was working there in Juventus. After losing the Champions League in the last season they are backed in this tournament and this time they are much stronger and have improved with their new coach Motta.
The match against PSV was not easy for Juventus but still, they won the first game of this Champions League with a 3-1 result to have a good start. Now Motta is becoming more famous in Juventus if he can continue this good performance on this team.

I only watched the Juventus vs PSV match and the Real Madrid vs VfB match. But it seems like I missed an exciting moment because I didn't watch the Bayern vs Dinamo Zagreb match which seemed to be very exciting.  Cheesy Imagine there are 11 goals in one match, it will definitely make the match very lively. Harry Kane even scored 4 goals in that match. But 3 goals came from penalty kicks and one regular goal in the 57th minute.
A very interesting Champions League opener, because it presents so many big wins, Liverpool finally made Milan silent at home, Bayern Munich who did an extraordinary massacre saw their game very hungry for goals 9-2. Kompany continues to cook this team to be more frightening, and I can't wait to see Bayern Munich meet Barcelona because now Blaugana has a different squad that can be a revenge.

Madrid pocketed 3 points very well, especially their game in the second half was quite attractive as well as Stuttgart who could create dangerous opportunities but unfortunately Courtois was too strong to be penetrated. Endrick again he played 10+ minutes but his 1 goal showed that there was something special about him. Taking advantage of the short time to score a goal, a counterattack that was quite clever to guard the ball from the back line even though Vinicius' position was empty he decided to execute and produce a goal in the final minutes. Amazing I really appreciate this young player.
The opening match of the UCL really seemed quite lively with the number of goals scored in each match, making those of us who watched more enthusiastic and didn't feel bored at all. And hopefully today's match can be as lively as yesterday's match. Regarding Endrick, this young player seems to have very good potential as a talented striker.

The match I am most looking forward to today is the Manchester City vs Inter Milan match. I think the meeting of these two strong clubs will be very lively and will feel like a final. Inter Milan, the champion of Serie A, against Manchester City, the champion of the Premier League, will be a match that will definitely be exciting to watch. But I don't dare to bet on the superiority of one of the teams in this match. Because it's quite risky.

An important rule in football says: you must learn to take your chances when you have them, or you will get punished. I agree with you that Stuttgart played a very good football. At some point, I thought it was going to end in a draw, but Rmadrid wasn't going to let that happen. Rmadrid's performance this season hasn't impressed me much. I don't really know what's going on with them. I hope they are not planning on using the same approach where they play poorly from the beginning of a season, and ends the season in a a very fine form. Or maybe they are just trying to adapt to every game. I will be looking forward to watching their game against Liverpool. Maybe that will allow me rate their form this season.

PSG can cope without their first choice goal keeper in their match against Girona. Provided that the squad are playing very good and their back up goal keeper is fit to start for them. Provided that the defense is well composed and are not allowing the Girona players to penetrate them that much. Moreover Girona are just new to the Champions league and lacks the experience of the Champions league, so they shouldn't be much of a trouble for PSG to see them off.

I feel PSG playing without donnarumma who happens to be their first choice GK is a big blow to them. This is UCL. I definitely expect goals from both sides, because you don't expect a side to be 100% good on both attack and defense. Girona will surely have their chances, and I believe they will take them. But, PSG might just be taking all 3 points, seeing that they already have the UCL experience, and also quality players among them.

There is a piece of bad news for PSG while we are close to the first match of the Champions League in this season. It seems they won't be able to use their goalkeeper Donnarumma against Girona.
Girona was a good team in the last season and they had a good performance in La Liga which made this team in the Champions League while they didn't have superstar players like Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga. Now this will be more challenging for them to play against a team like PSG while I think they are lucky because their goalkeeper Donnarumma is injured.


An injury and absence of a key player is always bad news for all clubs but PSG as a big and rich club with so huge money spent for player transfers over years, need to have a deep squad and have enough alternative star players to replace their main players.

If they don't have good replacement of Donnarumma or any star player, when a key player injured, they actually have big problems in their club development strategies and their Sports Director need to be fired. Injuries are unavoidable with all players but as a club, and especially a very rich club with abundant money, PSG have many good conditions to build up a very deep player resource, and can have two squads with nearly similar quality.

Champions League is a competition with highest level in Europe at club level and PSG ambitiously want to win this title in the last 20 years. They already got a chance to play 1 Champions League final but failed, and are fighting for another final match as well as opportunity to bring a first ever Champions League trophy to their club hall.
