For a moment I lost my breath. It was a good relief that it was off side or we would have a game over. phew!



Mane really needs to practice some bicycle shots. One should have been a goal from those twos.

PSG is the team that disqualified dortmund.
So sad for Borussia as they were good on both matches and they have great players that would go far in this cup. I think that Haaland is going to be unhappy with his performance in this game after he didn't score any goal.

Pressure is building on in the Liverpool match. We need another goal to secure the next round but there are not much time too. Only 10 ish minutes to go of the regular time. But if the other one happens means if Atl scores then this will be a disaster.

Liverpool deserves to win this match. Boring Atl do not deserve anything from this match.

Things are looking up for Liverpool, but Atletico ain't making it easy.  Both teams look good, but I'm rooting for LFC.  Lets go, boys, uno más por favor!
Liverpool needs one more goal to make it easier for them to qualify. 2nd half started and let's see what we get from here. First half was good for us.

In the other match it seems PSG already have the required goal margin for the next round but still the whole 2nd half left. Let's see what we see after the final whistle of the regular time.

The match has definitely surpised me tonight, because its a close call.
Dortmund need a goal to move ahead to extra times, but have played unaminously poor today, could it be due to lack of fans cheering ?

The match against liverpool is as expected, with Atletico making the blocks and defending deep. A goal by Atletico on the counter could ruin the night for Liverpool.

Overall its an interesting final 10-15 minutes of champions league round tonight.

I didn't pay attention to the games yesterday, I only just noticed the scores.  The Spurs sure blew it.  I didn't think they had much of a chance after giving up a goal at home, but wow, what a drumming they got from Leipzig.

PSG & Liverpool doing really well to turn around 1st leg deficits atm. 2nd halves will be explosive, I’m watching the LFC vs Atleti game but PSG are on fire by the looks of it in the other one.

agree, both matches are very good in first half, and home teams are in the lead, equalizing the advantage from first match, PSG is in better situation, since 1:0 is enough for them to pass through, but seems that LFC will also score at least one more in the second half and mark their QF entrance

The match is getting tighter, both of them are attacking each other and strong in their defense, I can't imagine if Athletico Madrid scores first it will be harder for Liverpool to respond because seeing this game Atletico is really strong in his defense even Liverpool continues to kick at goal accurately.
Well defense is what they are doing right now. They were pressuring Liverpool for few minutes after 30th minutes for several minutes and then again it's the same. Liverpool is trying hard to break the wall. So far 4 shots on goal but no luck yet.

As the match progresses Liverpool is pushing harder too. I am just worried if they concede a goal from the counter attack. Hope it won't happen.

Edit: And breakthrough!!!
We have a goal!!!
Superb header from Georginio.
1 - 0 ahead!!!

Excepting a win for Atletico or at least a draw but they will advance to quarters.
So far not big damage from both side but Liverpool is doing most of the attacks. Both teams are taking their time to settle down. This is not going to be easy for any team after all.

PS: Atl are just defending lately LOL
Come on! Play football!!

 Liepzig was half expected considering Spurs have been really horrible since Mourinho came in. The trouble with this is, dude was seen one of the best managers of our time during his tenure in real madrid and in chelsea, dude was basically klopp before klopp but than something happened and he moved on to Manchester United and he was so so so horrible that nobody picked him up for a whole year, so he came to Spurs as a last effort to actually save his managerial career yet he is still so bad that I think this could basically be the last year he manages a top team.

 Atalanta on the other hand loving the fact that they are no longer in a corona infected italy and destroyed valencia again Cheesy All jokes aside they were pretty good and already won on the first game pretty convincingly but kept it up with this one as well, plus it was a really high amount of scoring as well with 4-3 anyone who played 6.5 over would have been pretty quite rich today Cheesy

I also am from the side that believes that Liverpool will qualify today and I see this happening easily for some reasons.The reasons are that Atletico Madrid is not in their best form and Liverpool is focused 100% in the Champions League right now.I think to bet on Liverpool to win to nil and also another bet Liverpool to qualify.
We all shouldn't forget that Atletico are leading by a goal, and they are extremely good in defending such a crucial goal,  I think what Liverpool needs to do is to try as much as possible to score an early goal so as to make Atletico come out,  from the look of things Atletico might decide to defend throughout the whole game in as much as that will make them qualify.

The fact that Liverpool failed to score at Atletico home is a huge relief for ATM,  because coming to Anfield to score an away goal will go a long way for them, I'm hoping to see a different Liverpool entirely tonight, will be glad to see Liverpool qualify,  my bet in on them

I am actually hoping Atletico scores first and then Liverpool shifts few gears up and wins the game with result like 3:1 or even 4:1. I am thinking that is only way we will see a good match tonight. Otherwise, Atletico will defend even if they are 1 goal behind and they will try to take the game to the penalties.

PSG - Dortmund should be a great game for neutral watchers.

Can't wait for Champions league games tonight. I still haven't decided which game I'm going to watch, because both will be great.
Maybe it will be a good idea if you use two televisions to be watched at once.

Liverpool - Atletico, we shouldn't expect many goals in this game, Atletico probably will park a bus. Atletico have tiny advantage, but considering how Liverpool played in few recent games, it will be very difficult to eliminate them.
Players on the front lines of the home team must show better performance after failing to record a single shot on target at Wanda Metropolitano in the first leg.  They will again face a team with high defense qualities.

Atletico Madrid have had difficulty appearing consistent throughout the season.  Game schemes that tend to be defensive even in games against middle or bottom board teams are considered to make it difficult for the club players to show their best abilities.  This condition also makes the performance of Diego Simeone get criticism.

I prefer watching this match.

Yeah! That's so unfair from UEFA  Angry
With matches of such caliber, it's shame that both will be played at the same time. I tried watching two games side-by-side during first leg but it was complete mess. So this time I will just watch PSG match. Can't miss Neymar performance in Champions League. Fit Neymar playing his best game is rare sight these days.

I would love to see PSG kicked out by Borussia. Away goal scored by PSG is big factor, but I hope they will choke again like in all previous seasons.

Haha evil you! I still can't forget the shocked face of Neymar when Rashford scored penalty last year. I really hope PSG qualifies for quarter finals this year. But Borussia with its young force is no less.

Liverpool - Atletico, we shouldn't expect many goals in this game, Atletico probably will park a bus.

I don't think Atletico will just sit and defend. I still remember how their defensive tactic failed last year when Ronaldo and Co. ripped their defense off by playing cross balls from midfield. Atletico defended good for first few minutes but soon Ronaldo found the way between defenders and headed two goals.

Atletico have tiny advantage, but considering how Liverpool played in few recent games, it will be very difficult to eliminate them.

If we talk about few recent games then Liverpool's performance is far from convincing. They have conceded 10 goals in their last 5 games while scoring only 3!
Also let's not forget that Alisson is not playing tonight. Can Adrian with his shaky hands take Liverpool to the quarters? It would be interesting to see.



The only problem I have with the match is that it starts at 1:30 am here lol .
ha ha  Grin even here I wait 3 more hours to start the match.
but I don't want to miss this match.

LoL! No matter where you live, we all have to wait for 3 hours for match to start.  Cheesy Cheesy

There is the Anfield factor too. The last time they lost in Anfiled is against Napoli in a club friendly back in July'19. Against Napoli Liverpool seems always shaky though. I am not sure if we will see a high scoring match or not but I am pretty sure that Liverpool will win by 2 goals difference at least.

I am going with Liverpool because 1.55x is worth taking the risk , I seriously think anything above 1.4x is worth betting as Liverpool has been unstoppable in Anfield . I am guessing a 3-1 or 2-1 final score but have bet only on Liverpool to win this match .
Betting with 1.55x I think it's appropriate for Liverpool because they will play tonight more aggressively my prediction by scoring 2 goals without returning a goal from the opponent, this is a determination for Liverpool to win in front of their fans so they are more confident let alone playing at home.
Your bet is worth it.
