Real Madrid will really need to focus on their defense in the rematch. They were too weak against Manchester City defensively for some time. They don't have the luxury of doing it again in the rematch now. Otherwise, Manchester City might be able to get what they want in that match also and they would finish the job. Real Madrid are already very strong offensively. I don't have any doubt that they can score easily in the rematch too. But they definitely need to improve their defense.
Real Madrid really played Manchester city in the first half that made the match 0-0 which was seriously causing fear to the mind of Manchester city fans that predicted that the match will end up 4-0 in the first half.  But Real Madrid coach refuse to make some changes early in the second half that gave the Manchester city to embraced their opportunity to defeated Real Madrid 2-0 for the first leg. I think Real Madrid coach will do everything possible to make their defense strong for Manchester city not to achieve any goal from the second leg.

Real Madrid were really bad at defending their opponent in both halves. Manchester City didn't have much problem on finding the chances they were looking for. After doing the same against Chelsea, I would have expected a more durable Real Madrid in this one. But still they succeeded in not getting far behind their opponent in terms of score. The final result was 4-3 there and it is still not a very bad result for Real Madrid. They will just need to play more solid in Santiago Bernabeu to drop the danger level to minimum in defense. And Benzema will be their biggest goal power there also like he was in the first leg. He scored 2 goals and impressed everyone again.

A solid Liverpool performance yesterday, not the best but good enough to warrant a comfortable advantage for the 2nd leg.
Villarreal defended well throughout most of the game but if you fall asleep only for a second Liverpool will punish you and with the overall quality of the team and the substitutes, they will look for openings with the same tempo throughout the whole 90 minutes.

Liverpool is too good to let this lead slip away so I really do feel that we are already with 1 leg in the final.
Villarreal were a disgrace yesterday, in fact I think they were exposed by Liverpool. They are not good as previous games made them look, just because they have been able to beat teams with a big name doesn't mean they are good. Villarreal previous games in this season champion's league was a fluke, beating one of the worst Juventus teams in years and a Bayern Munich team who are playing their worst football in years is like saying a win against this present Manchester United is special.

I agree with the opinion of some people here that Liverpool are ready to wait for the opponent in the final between Madrid vs Manchester City cannot be determined who will go to the final these two teams have the same chance.

My prediction of Liverpool winning is evident. Villareal did not make a serious threat to Liverpool. Even Alisson didn't get much attack. Liverpool were very dominant and controlled the game. For the second leg should Liverpool remain alert, villareal will have a better mentality at home. Liverpool must be wary of their quick counter-attacks. They must not underestimate Villareal if they want to get to the Final.

Real Madrid made a lot of mistakes in defense. Strong teams like Manchester City don't forgive mistakes like this. They turn every position into a goal. Indeed, Real Madrid could have conceded more goals in the match. Manchester City proved to be the strongest favorites of this tournament. I guess they will win the league and champions league. I give Manchester City more chances than Liverpool.
Even if Real Madrid made a lot of mistakes in defence, the 4-3 away score showed that Manchester City also made a lot of mistakes, since they allowed so many goals. I also thought Manchester City would win, but after the Real Madrid match I had my doubts. Now there is no telling how they will play in Madrid. I think Real Madrid can play better at home than away.

Real Madrid's defense was very weak in this match. If the Manchester City players had not missed the easy chances, Manchester City could have scored at least 2-3 more goals in this match. Real Madrid is definitely strong at home. But if they can't strengthen the defense, they won't be able to win the home match either. Manchester's forward is very strong. They cannot be stopped by a weak defense;.

it is very possible to happen, Villarreal played very defensively in the first leg and most likely after being 2 goals down in the second leg Villarreal will play in attack and so it is very possible for Liverpool to score again and win, I have no doubts about that.
Therefore there is no time to relax for Liverpool just because they have a capital of 2 goals. Playing at the opponent's cage will be quite different and if it provides a little more support for Villareal players, automatically the aggressiveness of Villareal's performance will be much increased. Reflecting on Leg 1 when first half Liverpool lost many chances and only second half they could take points.

Have you checked the betting market for this match? Bookies very confident in Liverpool seems to underestimate Villarreal
I'm not denying that Liverpool have the potential to win but Villarreal really need to be considered they are a team full of surprises and motivation
I'm interested in the both teams to score bet, will Villarreal be able to score at least one goal?
I don't think Villarreal able to score against Liverpool in the first leg since this match will be attended on Liverpool's home and Liverpool is well balanced team. I have to say the upset of Villarreal can beat Bayern Munich is a outstanding achievement by Villarreal, but Bayern Munich is aggressive team and don't really good to play defensive. I bet Liverpool will win 2-0 against Villarreal.

Your predictions are precise and accurate mate unfortunately I already placed a bet on both teams to score Villarreal really didn't do anything it wasn't what I expected
I agree with the opinion of some people here that Liverpool are ready to wait for the opponent in the final between Madrid vs Manchester City cannot be determined who will go to the final these two teams have the same chance.

it is very possible to happen, Villarreal played very defensively in the first leg and most likely after being 2 goals down in the second leg Villarreal will play in attack and so it is very possible for Liverpool to score again and win, I have no doubts about that.
In the second leg Villarreal will also be seen although trying to attack as being 2 goals down in the Champions League is a bit difficult for any club looking to get to the final.
And one more thing is Liverpool, which this season always looks better in playing in all matches so that its consistency always gives very good results for Liverpool.

For me Villereal dosent stand a chance . Their football is all based on defence they tried that in Enfield aswell and that didnt work. So this is one of the first time they will have to chase a losing result. They won all of their matches based on defence and counter-attacks. Liverpool will have a much easier job there and a lot more space to score.

I think we should be ready for surprises in the next match. Manchester City is a stronger team and has a better chance of becoming a champion, but Real Madrid is also very good, we know what quality football we watched in the previous match.
So it is not easy to predict who will win in the next match, both teams have a chance Smiley
Manchester City must keep the odds when it comes to the bernabeu, capital in the first leg must be used as well as possible by manchester City to get to the final. The only player that Man City players have to guard is Benzema, he can do anything to stop Man City.
Pep Guardiola must play a tiki-taka style in order to control the game, Man City must be prepared for a deadly counter-attack from Real Madrid. Manchester City had the slight advantage, but Real Madrid could surprise them with their trademark quick counter-attack.
Being behind by 1 goal is not a difficult thing for Real Madrid, especially since Real Madrid is a team with a high mentality, it has been proven in the last few matches of the UCL this season, everything is still possible because there are no away goals or sometimes it makes the chances of both teams still the same to win. can qualify for the final even though currently Man City is ahead by 1 goal.
One goal difference and no away goals rule would make the second leg at the Santiago Bernabeu very open for both teams, but with the excellent performance of Pep Guardiola's men in the first leg it is very possible for them to win again and qualify for the party. finals. without degrading Real Madrid and regardless of the results of the two teams in the first leg many people believe that they can beat Real Madrid again in the second leg if that is without any surprises happening again.

Leg 2 later I hope Liverpool makes the distance further by adding to the collection of scores. Although it is certain that Liverpool can overcome it all, it is still necessary to be aware that Villareal still has many surprises. So don't let it stay only 2 points, Klopp as much as possible still has a target above the 2 goals they are currently pocketing.

I don't think expecting Villareal in the final is reasonable, it's a futile hope because there was nothing good about their performance except just a good defence.  As most say, Liverpool are favorites to the final although Villareal have a chance to improve their performance in the second leg. But to be honest, I don't think Villareal will be good in the final.

Actually, Liverpool had a lot more chances to go further ahead in the match but they could not convert those chances into goals. Both Sadio Mané and Salah had some clear chances but they failed to convert.
Anyway, they have played really well in the first leg and with the two-goal lead, they will be in a really comfortable place in the second leg against Villarreal. I don't expect them to lose from this situation.

Although Unai Emery' didn't not register a goal on target but I commend them. The Liverpool team was like a smoking gun. They were too good for the Villarreal side. The attack of Liverpool was outstanding and the Villarreal defense did there best to curtail them throughout the the first half. I still have to Villarreal side because even after they conceded that unlucky goal the defense and midfield were still composed to withstand the attacking powerhouse of Liverpool. The second goal by Mane, after he missed a golden oppurtunity to score in the first half was a masterclass display by Salah. Mane and Salah seems to be the best attacking combination in recent times. It makes me recall the attacking partnership of Brazilian Bebeto and Romario.

The second leg in Spain would not be an easy one for Liverpool. I expect the yellow submarines to come out of their defensive half. Emery should unleash the entire attacking arsenal of Villarreal in order to match the defensively organized Liverpool side. I am supporting the yellow submarines because they are underdogs and have paid their dues to be at this level. Seeing them in the finals would be a historical achievement for the club.
the second leg I think it will be very easy for Liverpool because they have won Agg 2 goals with their quality and their game is like the first leg I think it is very likely that Liverpool will win again in the second leg later.
in the first leg Villarreal really played defensively and hoped the match would end in a draw but unfortunately 2 goals occurred in the near future.
