They are right, the best in Europe are Real Madrid and Liverpool, it cannot be denied, but apart from this we all must recognize that Real Madrid has great expectations, it should be noted that I won a bet with that game, so I am happy, but going back to the sporting theme, it is clearly shown that the game does not end until the 90th minute and the discount, I think that Real Madrid has shown a lot in a short time and I think they have the luck of Champion, it should be noted that a cup number 14 is not bad at all, Man City played with heart, but to be honest City lacked more physical conditions, for me City has an explosive game and can determine to win a game quickly, but in the last minutes I saw that some players lost their strength, not all of it, but sometimes you can see that they were already very, very tired, while Real Madrid seemed to be the freshest players.


At this time I would not let myself be carried away by the statistics, for me I think the winner will be Real Madrid, although Liverpool is literally flying, I think Real Madrid has a lot of experience in finals and above all they have a great technical director, in addition that Benzema can shine even more. Of course, not everything is written, Liverpool may give a surprise, in the PL they are having a very good season, both they and City are at the top.

I hope we don't just get hung up on statistics like this.
Indeed, in statistics we can tell where the difference in strength lies from different perspectives but in this case it can actually be confusing.
I feel that PSG and City should be examples. they are very underdog in stats but what they got against Real Madrid.
I think this can be a reference for not making statistics too much as if they are the winner

The two teams that competed in the final were the best teams in my opinion, even though they both have many different squad depths but both are the same team with the same strong mentality to win, in terms of game maybe Liverpool are a little better especially from defense and attack but Madrid also not much different in terms of sharpness in scoring goals, I think maybe defense has been the only weakness that madrid has so far, the comparison of conceding goals is a fairly visible difference between madrid and liverpool, I personally would also say that the final match will be difficult to predict and that's why I made a draw in normal time a bet.

I'm not saying that Real Madrid don't want to win the champions league. They have good players like Benzema, Vini Jr, Super sub Rodrygo and others who can change the game result any time. Liverpool is near 4 league title and they will want to win champions league title definitely.

Madrid also want to be the winner of this match so not only Liverpool because Madrid too had ambition to get 14th trophy and i think this a battle between the teams that have a winning mentality and whoever has a better mental will became the champion of this season but if we talking about the favourite indeed it belongs to Liverpool because most of bookmakers currently placed Liverpool odds lower than Madrid but it cannot be used as a reference because it all still depend on the performance for both of teams while playing

We can't doubt the performance of Benzema this season, after the departure of Ronaldo, Benzema has turned into the spearhead and also the mainstay of the madrid game in the last few seasons, but I don't agree if you say that Benzema is the only one who deserves to get the Ballon d'Or just because the age factor, if we compare only in terms of age and appearance, of course apart from benzema we must also consider Lewandowski as one of the favorites who also won the Ballon d'Or.

I think Benzema really deserves the Ballon d'Or this season. I believe he was on fire and considering he is already 34 years old I really don't think any one of his age did something like this ever in Football history. I might be wrong but it is really amazing to see a player of his age do something like this when in this era football is really fast-paced and people are becoming a lot more injury-prone.

In the last 5 matches, Liferpol has not been able to beat Real Madrid, even Liferpol has always lost by more than 1 goal, maybe this year's final will be Liferpol's mission of revenge against Real Madrid, but I am optimistic that Liferpol will be able to break Real Madrid's unbeaten record, according to My prediction is that Liferpol will win 2-1 over Real Madrid in the final.

For me the strongest team of all football clubs in the world was and is Manchester City in this season and i really don't like clubs like ManCity or Paris Saint Germain that are basically toys of sheikhs and oligarchs but the truth is the truth. They were my big favorite to finally win the champions League this year and it is almost tragic to me that they have failed to reach the final again, even though they were the better team against Real Madrid too.
Somehow Real managed to beat them though and i don't see any reason why they should not be able to beat Liverpool too, especially as the final is only 1 game and there factors like luck, efficiency and also timing are even more important than in the semi-final.

maybe the only thing that real Madrid can rely on is a winning mentality, because real Madrid has the most Champions League titles, but don't forget Liverpool's history in the Champions League stage, Liverpool is the only English team with the most Champions League trophies. So if we talk about the mentality of winning the Champions League, I think both teams have a very good mentality. But if we look at Liverpool's game compared to Real Madrid, I think Liverpool deserves to be champions of the Champions League this season.
I myself prefer Liverpool to win the Champions League this season.

Many people out there believe that Liverpool will win the UCL, this is probably because Liverpool will at least get 1 title this season. But never forget the winning mentality that Real Madrid have, they can make the unlikely thing possible, as happened recently when they played Manchester City, and also when they played Atletico Madrid in the Final.

I also hope Liverpool can beat Real Madrid and I will be more than happy if Liverpool can win every competition, even though in the EPL they are very competitive with Manchester City but still have a chance to be champions if in the rest of the games they always win and score a lot of goals.
especially the FA Cup final where I think Liverpool can beat Chelsea and become champions, and the UCL final against Real Madrid is really going to be a very fierce and tense match. And I hope Liverpool will win the UCL this season.

Absolutely right you're that Liverpool will try to win the champions league title in this season because it is so tough for them to win EPL title. Both teams on champions league final are strong enough to beat their opponent. But in my opinion, Liverpool is favorite compare to Real Madrid.

I am a fan of both teams, but if we look at their achievements this season, I would prefer Liverpool who will win the UCL final. As we know that Real Madrid have secured their La Liga title, while in the EPL, it has been very difficult for Liverpool to become champions. So they will be more focused on at least winning the UCL title this season.

Yes, OK
I understand what you mean by these words
but a team is never just one player, otherwise 11 people would not play
a team has a lot of members, including the management that has to be smart if you really want to build something serious

I think the mentality of Manchester City players was really good at the start of the match and also at the middle part because they looked like they were playing aggressively and getting in good positions with and without the ball and also making good chances.

But at the end of the match when it did really look like they are going to win the match against Real Madrid I think they lost their concentration and conceded some easy goals. that is obviously not the mentality of a winning team because they had to be a lot more professional and keep their concentration till the end.

And if we talk about Pep Guardiola, I think we all will surely agree that he has not been able to reproduce the success that he had with Barcelona. But I have to say he did try a lot and it was evident in the match against Real Madrid. we all could see how passionate he was about the game.

The fight between Liverpool and Real Madrid is never going to be a small fight at all.Real Madrid is the best team in Spain now and Liverpool is second on the premier league table which means that they are also very good to win the tittle too.No one expected Madrid to be able to win  Manchester city,but it was like a surprise to everyone when they did that.That shows that when it comes to champions league,experience matters alot,when I watched that game,I saw that Real Madrid are very much experienced than Mancity in the champions league.They waited untill Manchester city players were tired before they started scoring goals,and Karim Benzema was also pivotal to their win.
Liverpool is a different team altogether,and I believe Ancelotti will also come with a different approach.Two experienced coaches will be meeting and that is also really going to make the game a very tough one.
An advantage that Liverpool have over Real Madrid is the physicality,the like of Mane,Firminho,and other Liverpool player like Virgil are very aggressive in nature.That is an edge over Madrid too.But we can't predict what will happen,we just have to wait until the final wistle will be blown.

Luck is a funny thing,  if it's on your side you will be able to do impossible things possible. I believe that is the case for Real Madrid because luck seems to be on their side. Every time when it seems like they will not be able to reach the next stage they somehow find a way to win and that is also from a position that is quite impossible. Now they are going to face their hardest opponent in the final. I also feel like Liverpool should win this match but  Real Madrid won against Manchester City so I really don't know.




I am saying they are not in good shape because their defense looks like it's made of some college boys who are trying to do some schoolyard bull shit. 

I really don't have any expectations from the defense of Real Madrid.  but the way they are playing in the latter stages of every match is quite inspiring and we have to remember they beat Manchester City in their last match. so Liverpool obviously is not too hard to beat for them in my opinion.

If Benzema can score in the final and Real Madrid can win the title, then Benzema will be a worthy contender for the Ballon d'Or, and I believe he will get the Ballon d'Or. He has played exceptionally well throughout the season. Real Madrid have won the Champions League only because of his performance. If Benzema doesn't get Ballon d'Or then I think Salah will get Ballon d'Or.

Manchester city and Liverpool deserve to be in the top of the UCL this season but once again mental strength speaks in the blue continent competition where real Madrid showed such an extraordinary mentality against Manchester city at the Santiago Bernabeu in the second leg where real Madrid showed that they have a very high fighting spirit and winning mentality, so indeed they deserved a satisfactory result and we will see how in the match against Liverpool later because both teams have a very high winning mentality unlike Manchester city, considering Liverpool only suffered two defeats in the competition. the final match they played throughout the UCL competition where the rest they managed to become champions
