Smart is not enough, there must be skills
After last night made a failed match in my bet, Bayern Munich must fail to draw Villareal which in my mind maybe Bayern Munich can win at home to Allianz but it was beyond expectation.

Same thing with Real Madrid vs Chelsea is still beyond prediction again, but Real Madrid is still lucky and Benzema as a savior to qualify.



Okay, this time I believe more in the English league team that can win it, Liverpool might be a little easier to play at Anfield which can spark another victory.

Although Mancity will be more difficult to play away I think that's the most correct guess for Mancity at the moment.

But the more interesting game remains Atletico Madrid vs Mancity.

After yesterday's matches, you can't be sure of anything. But I think both English clubs will win today. In any case, Benfica will not win against Liverpool. Atletico Madrid will of course try to create problems for Manchester City, but I do not think they can win even on home field.
Yes, the both teams will win today match because their last match performance was an excellent. Liverpool team will not allow Benfica team to achieve a goal from today match than  to keep the winning till they achieve the title of this season. Manchester City will not allow Atletico Madrid to use home advantage to defeat them today than to use their normal strategies to defeat them 2:0 to improve their points.
Liverpool will win comfortably at Anfield with two goals as an added advantage, I don't think Benfica can get any result from the encounter considering the in-formed Liverpool side that had performed brilliantly well in the league.
Meanwhile the match between Atletico Madrid and Man City is dicey to me though the visitors has a goal advantage however their host will come out and play attacking football just like what Chelsea did against Real Madrid yesterday, it's going to be a difficult match for Man City.

Benzema's head helped Real Madrid reach the semi-finals. Smiley When the score was 0-3 to Chelsea I couldn't believe that Tuchel could achieve such a result at the Santiago Bernabeu and I kept waiting for Real Madrid to start scoring because they couldn't lose a clean at home. Benzema saved Real Madrid again, I think everyone will agree that he took Real Madrid to the semi-finals. I think that they will have to meet with City and they will not be able to get into the final, Liverpool and City will be play in the final. Smiley
Of course, it will be a tough task for Real Madrid if Manchester City become their opponent in the quarter-finals, but it is still uncertain considering that Manchester City must ensure that they qualify for the next round against Atletico Madrid.

I think the England final will most likely be repeated this season and if Manchester City and Liverpool get there it will be a great final. But of course Liverpool and Manchester City have to make sure they get through to the quarter-finals today and are only thinking about the semi-finals, maybe easy for Liverpool against Villareal but difficult for Manchester City because Real Madrid are the opponents.

Real was able to put the squeeze on Chelsea and reached the semi-finals. Benzema said his word and it turned out to be decisive - in this confrontation he scored 4 goals!  Shocked Cool
Meanwhile, there are already two Spanish teams in the semi-finals, hardly anyone expected to see at least one before the start of the playoffs. I hope tomorrow we expect no less intense matches.
The end was very stressful and Real Madrid are now really through. Everything is comparable to the struggle of both parties, even though Chelsea have also shown their best performance. Benzema became a savior for the umpteenth time for Madrid.

Congratulations to those who bet. lol

Throughout the game the two clubs almost did not show a decrease in attack rhythm. Put pressure on each other. Tuchel was also hit by the card, he's very aggressive, and there's definitely a chance for next season. let Real Madrid celebrate this victory.

Unfortunately next season for Chelsea will not be determined by sporting performance, which are undoubtedly good, but by the whole situation with Abramovich, who is removed from ownership of the club.
Benzema is great. Now many understand that a year ago, Ronaldo, speaking about the fact that Benzema deserves the golden ball, did not say this in order to deprive Messi of another golden ball, but was simply objective.

Even 3-0 for chelseaI was very disappointed, maybe Madrid would have lost. But when they get 1 goal I'm quite optimistic. Even when madrid was able to add a goal from a combination of Vinicius jr's and Benzema. To be honest in the second goal Benzema was lucky because Rudiger slipped a little so he didn't keep Benzema optimal. The goal was very good, Benzema's head was very effective through the Chelsea goal at the time away or playing at the Bernabeu. Furthermore, the semifinals will be separated by two weeks, of course Madrid will now focus on the League in order to remain ranked first until the end of the season.

Liverpool will play at home, with their advantage in the 1st leg of course in this 2nd leg they will play more relaxed and confident. Benfica also has quality under Liverpool, I'm sure Liverpool will be able to win again in this match.

on the other hand Man City will travel to Atletico Madrid headquarters and with the quality and performance of Man City in the 1st leg I am sure Man City will win again in this match. even I believe they will win by a big score of 2-0 or 3-0 because Atletico will not play defensively again like the first leg and it will be very profitable for Man City who have better quality than Atletico.

Villarreal's gameplay and tactics were very annoying. They are very lucky to have qualified for the semi-finals. In both matches, we have seen the dominance of Bayern Munich's players. Bayern Munich's players have ruled in both matches.
Villareal deserve the aggregated win against Bayern. They did challenged Bayern a lot in both legs and the very late equalizer in the second leg means the end for Bayern. Bayern actually have a good match yesterday but they made very inaccurate shots that give hope for Villareal. Bayern can not destroy Villareal even they created so many opportunities. In the end, Villareal had a very good counter attacking and scored the equalizer that is enough for them. A few minutes left were not enough for Bayern to do anything.

Villarreal's main task was to repel the attack. However, Villarreal's goalkeeper Rulli's performance in both matches was very commendable. Villarreal's ability to qualify for the semi-finals is largely due to his outstanding performance.
Villareal and Real Madrid have done their works so impressive. Now it's the turn of Athletico Madrid and their opponent is Manchester City. Let's see whether Champions League will be dominated by La Liga clubs in the semi-final round.

It was really surprising to see that Villareal actually managed to advance to the next stage. I never thought in a million years that they would be able to do that when they have a team like Bayern Munich in front of them. I have to say well done to them. But I have to say I expected better from Bayern Munich, even though it looks like they have dominated the match I think they should have come out as the winners.

Real Madrid has also done really well and I was really impressed to see that Chelsea was able to get a lead in the second leg but Real Madrid came back strongly to win that match. Once again Karim Benzema comes to their rescue.

Liverpool is almost in next round, I would call that they are, but looking at what happened in Madrid, maybe Benfica could do some shit as well
City is favored by bookies, but it is with a reason, Atletico does not play good when on pressure to attack, and they will go down tonight

it would be too much to see three La Liga teams in semi-final, looking to two-two between La Liga and Premier

Actually, I don't believe that Benfica will cause too many problems for Liverpool. Liverpool has already got a healthy lead and I do expect them to win in the second leg also regardless of the aggregate score. Liverpool could not get a win against Manchester City in their last match in the English Premier League and I think they will be really determined to win this match.
Atletico Madrid is already behind and I don't expect them to win in the second leg. Don't think they will be able to overcome the odds.
They will be difficult now because indeed Benfica have lost quite a lot to Liverpool and even though they provide good enough pressure it is difficult to score 2 goals for them especially playing at Anfield now.
Hopefully there will be an exciting match in this match like Madrid's match with Chelsea yesterday.
although this is indeed quite difficult because it is certain that Liverpool will continue to dominate

I agree with the opinion that Real's victory is a mentality thing. They have shown it time and time again - whenever you think they are beaten, they start playing their best football. What to say about Modrić though? That outside foot pass for Benzema is out of this world.

I kinda felt Villarreal might be problematic for Bayern - I said it here as well after the draw. Liverpool will be really happy with their draw - fortune favors us this season.

We might get to the CL final over Inter, Benfica and Villarreal - you cannot have it any easier. But let's first do our jobs tonight - although I feel there is a 0% chance of a Benfica upset.

Score 3 goals at Anfield just like mission impossible for Benfica so their chance is very small go to semi-final although miracle can be happend but it is hard for them to realized it and in my view Liverpool might be will win but with slim score and actually Liverpool facing tight schedule this weekend because after this match they will play against Man City again for FA Cup semi-final so possibly they will play with several reserved players today
I personally predict Liverpool will lose but go through anyway, losing 1-0 is very possible. Because it's not just now, it seems that in my memory Liverpool have often had results like this in the past too, winning the first leg but losing the second leg but sometimes still qualifying and not. So I think this time maybe it will happen as well or with a draw, because in the previous match against Inter also got a result like that.
I don't think so because Benfica is not that strong compared to Liverpool, Benfica will play attacking because they are behind Agg and so it's very likely that when two teams play openly and attack it will benefit the team that has better quality and that is what Liverpool have, I think Liverpool will again be able to win this 2nd leg match.

Football matches can happen beyond predictions, but in fact only clubs that have great players, the right strategy applied by the coach and great experience is more prominent and can be guaranteed to win in the match, Manchester City are more likely to win the match, but Atletico Madrid definitely will change the game scheme, defending is their style every game, but this time I'm sure they will be a little open in attack, because one goal down is not too big to change the situation

Real Madrid was lucky with Benzema's goal, here again Benzema is the determinant of Madrid qualification to the next round. Chelsea's error did not take an advantage of 90 in the first leg, the score 1-3 at Stamford Bridge made Chelsea have to fight hard in the second leg, but Real Madrid again showed its quality as a king of the Champions League.
It's not simply about luck. Real Madrid did not give up, they fighted strongly and deserved with the final result. Chelsea can do better but in football, in the end, we have only one winner. So one go next and one will be out.

Benzema has an amazing season in the end of his career. It's so good for him to become the biggest star in Bernabeu after the transfer of Ronaldo to Juventus a few years ago.
In my opinion, it's not just luck either, because when Real Madrid trailed 3-0 to Chelsea, Carlo Ancelotti had a strategy by playing Rodrygo and Marcelo and this strategy paid off well, where Rodrygo managed to score 1 goal and make the match must be decided in extra time. The persistence of the Real Madrid players got a good achievement when Benzema scored the decisive goal in extra time.

Liverpoll Benfica not so much to say.

Of course I'm sure Liverpool will have no problem winning. They already have 3 goals at home to Benfica. Today they will play in England of course a lot of people voted for Liverpool to win although I also know Benfica still have a chance. But i think Benfica need miracle to beat Liverpool today.
Liverpool's chance to advance to the semifinals is very open, in the first leg Liverpool managed to close the match with a win (3-1) at a home to Benfica. In the second leg, I think Jurgen Klopp will rotate the starting eleven to keep the players fit. Because after the match vs Benfica, Liverpool will face Manchester City in the FA Cup semifinals. Despite getting a good result in the first leg, Liverpool will not underestimate the opponent they will face, because Benfica still has a chance to make a miracle in the second leg later.

Bayern Munich are out of the champions league quarter final after their 1-1 draw with Villarreal at home. They didn't see that coming, it's was more of a shocking results for both Julian Nagelsmann and the team.

Beyond my prediction, I think Munich will win and advance to the semifinals. But it looks like Munich underestimated Villareal too much. Villareal managed to steal a goal and play defensive football to qualify. That makes it very difficult for Munich to add goals.
No one expected that Villareal could beat a team as big as Munich in the Champions League this season, even though Villareal had an advantage of 1 goal in the 1st leg, but I think many people really doubt that Villareal can qualify for the semifinals, especially so far Munich is famous for a team that quite strong when playing at home and often munich can come back with a big enough score at the allianz arena, so that's the reason people believe that munich will win in that match, but indeed football is very difficult to predict and sometimes it will be very surprising for us.

The last minute that made Chelsea shattered and had to cry, because they lost on aggregate to Real Madrid, even though they won but last night's match Chelsea lost on aggregate, actually Chelsea played very impressively, even Real Madrid couldn't play as usual last night, I think Real Madrid only won luck,
I was even surprised with the way Real Madrid were playing in the second half, having a 3-1 advantage from the first leg, they were on the verge of crashing out of the competition yesterday. Chelsea weren’t just clinical defensively, they had control of the game after hitting 3goals and I expected Thomas Tuchel to reinforce the defense by the introduction of a defender. Even though they didn’t qualify, Chelsea have really proved to be defending champion but handball rules misinterpreted... I was not expecting the Chelsea of Yesterday in Santiago.

If you look at their game, Chelsea are very good but I think they were just unlucky. Real Madrid's goal in the 80th minute became their start to be unfocused, as a result in the first 15 minutes of extra time they had to concede again and ensure their defeat. On the other hand, Real Madrid are so calm in catching up, and that is the key to their success I think.
I think this is not unlucky for Chelsea but indeed the mentality of Real Madrid as king of the UCL is proven here, from the side of the game Chelsea are far superior even they were 3-0 up but we are back again the opponent faced by Chelsea is Real Madrid who has a very different mentality. tall.
Rodrygo goal in the 80th minute which received a brilliant assist from the best midfielder Luka Modric made the Chelsea players down until extra time Benzema again became a frightening figure by scoring the winner for Real Madrid.
this is not a surprise even though Chelsea have played well but Real Madrid is still the king of the UCL which is difficult to beat.

in another match unexpected thing happened, Bayern Munich failed to advance to the next round because of the draw they got. This is beyond belief, I don't know what else to say about Bayern's failure, but this is football in all its surprises.

Very impressive match between Madrid vs Chelsea, both played very well, especially Chelsea thats make Madrid must be played all out. At first, I thought Madrid would qualify easily, it turned out that my prediction was wrong, fortunately Ancelotti's experience and the Madrid players gave positive results even though they lost this match, but the 2 goals they scored were enough to beat Chelsea 5 - 4 on aggregate.
It's a very good match for Chelsea and they almost successfully destroyed Real Madrid. The rejected goal of Marcos Alonso is not enough to stop them and they did score another third goal to equalize the aggregated result. However, Real Madrid did not give up and the trivela key pass of Modric help them to bring the match to beyond 90 minutes. Benzema again shows his leadership by a decisive goal for his club.

It was really heartbreaking for Chelsea in my opinion. I really thought they could have a chance if they went ahead early in this match but they actually had ended up with a lead even in the aggregate score but they blew it. And after all the only thing I am thinking right now is how many times Karim Benzema is going to come forward and be the savior of Real Madrid. Anyway a good show all around.
Karim Benzema header helps eliminated Chelsea from the UEFA Champions League. Karim Benzema is the rescuer of Real Madrid, seems like nothing can stop him. Best player this season both score and play maker. Only one thing is sure if Karim Benzema win the UCL. The Ballon d'Or belongs to him. He merits this year Ballon d'Or more than anyone else.
