I admit that PSG attacker is so good that Mbappe takes offside several times. On PSG defense have something is wrong also, lack of coordination and fighting spirit, maybe Sergio Ramos is absent a player who has understood very well how real Madrid playing. even though they are a dream team, Pochetino didn't take advantage of all of them, seems like all players are strikers didn't have any to take the defense, PSG has a big correction for this time.
If I look at it, Real Madrid mentality, both in front, in midfield, and behind, correlate with each other to make PSG's direction of movement more blundering. Trying to tamper with the strategy and the result was Benzema being the most decisive executor to take the action that Ancelotti had planned in round 2. Not a few thought that PSG would be the winner, so the game in the second half of PSG's strategy did not change much.

PSG has a good attack, but no good defense...infact very bad defence from what I saw. They were unable to soak up the pressure from Real Madrid and made many blunders that cost them the game. Good thing they lost now, because with that defense, I didn't see PSG having a chance to win this championship, it would be more hurtful later than it is now.
Yes PSG attack was good, especially in the first half of the game but Madrid took over the midfield in the early stages of the second half thereby forcing an unstoppable attack in the defense of PSG, Benzema and Vanicius Jr mesmerized the defence of psg.Truth be told Madrid was a better team tonight.
I don't know if this is an exaggeration or not, but I saw today Real Madrid show once again that they are one of the leaders in the Champions League. Their mentality has been formed in this prestigious event.
Real Madrid again showed how terrible they were in the second leg and now Paris Saint-Germain are victims of Real Madrid's ferocity. Benzema became the actor of victory in this match with a hat trick he created in the 61st, 76th and 78th minutes.
Paris Saint-Germain supporters must have been optimistic to win the game after the first half they could score a goal through Mbappe. But calmly Real Madrid destroyed it.

PSG deserved this loss and to get knocked out. They have been playing so bad in their own league losing to some really weak teams and finally their tactics failed because of the coach that dosent know what to do with so many superstars.

Pochetino will be sacked at the end of the season, I think the main reason for he's signature has failed.
Messi fans will stop blabbing henceforth, he was absent all through the game, he's presence wasn't felt at all.
A defender I want to appluade is Militao, winning most of his aerial duels in this game, also he's aggression on Paris player's
Wouldn't it be very interesting when you saw the final result PSG lost to Real Madrid?Messi fans will stop blabbing henceforth, he was absent all through the game, he's presence wasn't felt at all.

I'm sure many people are betting on PSG's victory, especially in the first half, they must be very confident in what they will get. Even Messi and all PSG's reliable players could not make a very maximum contribution.
On the other hand, the goddess of fortune is not on PSG's side. haha
I also saw that in the second half, Real Madrid's game was very offensive after the substitution. They really play loose. And the spearhead of Benzema executed goals very well. They were really solid in the game.
Inter are likely to lose to Liverpool tomorrow. Or even if there is a draw, Liverpool will go through to the next round. I can't imagine Inter scoring three goals without missing a goal. So far I see Liverpool and Manchester City in the final. In general this year a lot of English clubs have made it through the group stage and we are more likely to see an English final like last year.
Well, at Inter with Arsenal it's a very good game and one that promises a lot, in fact Arsenal beat Watford despite the fact that there was a great goal from the Colombian, however this can play as a point that doesn't favor much, because Arsenal He comes tired and seeing that Inter is a very solid team, they may be saving everything for this game, the Italian league is also very exciting, despite the fact that the first place has about 60 points, I think that Inter will play with everything they has, this is a final for them, surely they will not miss it.
An English final would not be bad to consider that scenario again, for me it is super nice, the English teams demonstrate a tough and solid football.
Today Real Madrid through Benzema did what they wanted with PSG, from the second goal he scored to the third goal only 10 seconds passed, Benzema is definitely at another level.
Is not Pochetino fault, he did what he could is just football, Paris Saint Germain has lots of opportunities to win the game but were unlucky, Mbappe has two disallowed goals, when Real Madrid made those substitutions I think Paris Saint Germain could not get grip of the game again.those two kid(substitution) won Madrid the game
This has been the case with PSG each time in the Champions League. They often come so close and then, you find them loosing the games that were supposed to push them through to the next phase.What happened today is one of the least expected. Naturally, one would have hoped for a Rral Madrid 1:1 PSG draw in which case, it would mean Real Madrid's elimination to think of the most, a Real Madrid 2:1 PSG would have been a much more acceptable score to push the game to an extra time and eventually a penalty shootout for a decider. Especially with the fact that, you could tell PSG was in control of the game but instead, PSG lost by 3 goals to 1 in favour of Real Madrid and with it, lost all advantages in the league. Very shocking how it all came came to this!

I never expected Manchester City coming with a final result as this, you see, they casted a lot of bets.
Honestly speaking, this was a top top performance from Santiago bernabue Angel.
It's very obvious Pochetino is tactically poor, he is a only good in domestic league, he may be sacked even before the end of the season, Ancelloti once again proved to be a very good manager, PSG played more like individual stars while relying on Mbappe to counter attack, Messi has no meaningful impact on the game, Nymar Jr. was poor in the match, quite a lot of PSG fans and supporters will be disappointed with this lacklustre performance and defeat, even with huge wage bills earned by those players, they couldn't hold on to two goals advantage, congratulations to Real Madrid for job weldone.

I think almost all of us were surprised to see the final score 3-1 for Real Madrid win at first I thought Madrid would be down when it was 2 goals on aggregate
Really unbelievable and surprising. I am sure that many people are shocked by this result, moreover, those who bet for PSG. And of course, for PSG itself, they have had a higher aggregate moreover in the first half where they could score at first from Mbappe. And surprisingly, in the second half, Ancelotti really made a brave decision by replacing some key players. And Benzema's hattrick really brings fortune and big win to Real Madrid. Standing applause to him and also Real Madrid, appreciate for all lines of the club.
I had bet on Real Madrid to win and when I saw result of first half of them losing from PSG, I was thinking that I lost my bet.
Didn't have time to watch this game and I was very surprised to see Real managed to win in the end with 3:1.
This was great night for Benzema who scored all three goals for home team.
It is very normal to feel like this, most maybe also the same with you, feeling give up and despair of the match result during the first half. But, the match was not ended, and the end is a very surprising result. You must smile satisfied once realizing that Real Madrid could turn things around and win Didn't have time to watch this game and I was very surprised to see Real managed to win in the end with 3:1.

Name a better midfielder in the game than Luka Modric!
Perplexed at this because this baller is way passed he's the age and should be set for retirement but, he balls like a teenager always ready to work as a teen.
Always smart and exceptional in the pitch

That was a great match to watch. After the first half I thought it was over, PSG was better, came 0-1 and they would cross the finish line. but then you always have Benzema, the goal getter. He has done Real Madrid a great service this match. Normally the hero of the French team too, but I don't think the French people would be happy with him tonight. A hat-trick in 20 minutes against PSG with a 0-1 deficit, only the very best can do that. I'm surprised no one wants Benzema, that guy scores anywhere and everywhere just like Lewandosski.
As a neutral supporter, I am very entertained by the Real Madrid vs PSG match, in this match Real Madrid showed as an experienced team,
how they came back in the second half was incredible. Karim Benzema is absolutely amazing, managed to score a hat trick and make Real Madrid
qualify for the next round. I agree Benzema is a great goal machine for Real Madrid, Benzema has always scored important goals for Real Madrid.
Very lucky Real Madrid have a player like Benzema, other players who made a big contribution were Modric and Vinicus Junior, these two players
were quite troublesome for the PSG defense. Of the three strikers played by PSG, I only see Mbappe who works hard. I don't see Neymar or Messi
making a good contribution to PSG, very disappointing performances from Neymar and Messi. Overall Real Madrid really deserved to win and qualify
for the next round. I believe that with PSG being eliminated from the Champions League competition, this makes PSG management disappointed,
because the Champions League trophy is PSG's top priority this season. And the impact may be this season is Pochettino's last season as PSG coach.

That's a good bet, man. Poch has always been an average coach to me, so I'm still wondering what went wrong in the last 30 minutes. I wasn't expecting much from him as a coach; how can you bottle a 2-0 aggregate in 30 minutes? This is still fresh in my mind: they had the game under control in the first half and accomplished nothing with it.Didn't have time to watch this game and I was very surprised to see Real managed to win in the end with 3:1.

Luckily they have Benzema a special player who can be relied on in such an important match I'm personally happy to see this achievement even though at first I favored PSG
BTW congrats to Real Madrid this dramatic victory will always be remembered.

Not a few are favoring PSG in Leg 2, but it is not surprising that we saw that the first half was actually dominated by PSG. No one predicted that the second half of Madrid would be as fresh and make a comeback so quickly. I even had time to criticize Madrid's poor game in the first half because they only played with short passes while PSG always took advantage of counterattacks quickly and paid off.
However, what Ancelotti did change his attacking strategy which was more open and did not make short-range passes. More open the left and right sides in a balanced way. That's what I wanted to see because I was worried about the bets I had already dropped. And look what happened, Ancelotti was sharp in analyzing the movements of PSG's forward players who always played counter-attacks in close proximity. Madrid's performance has given a breath of fresh air to get tickets to the next game.
Never say never, this magic always happens in the champions League,you don't have to play with your chances in the champions League because the next minute will cost you,it happens in 2006 when AC Milan wss winning Liverpool 3-0 in the final then suddenly Liverpool equalise all the goals and win AC Milan in the penalties shootout.even when Paris Saint Germain won Barca first leg 4-1 then second leg Barcelona won 6-1 or so this is the mystery of the champions League.

Kareem Benzima has really proven that he is a world class striker
Yep. He shows us the reason why Real Madrid still keeps him on the squad until today. He is not only a world-class CF (central forward), but he is also a true leader of Real Madrid players. He gave a lesson for his Junior (Mbappe) that skill isn't everything, don't forget about mentality and experience. 
I can now believe that experience matters, because Real Madrid has really proven to us that they have a vast experience in UEFA Champions League.
Of course, experience has a big role to determine the victory in UCL. An experienced team knows how to deal with pressure during the match and knows how to take every opportunity to win the match. It is not the first time Real Madrid came back from the loss, so they never gave up even if the aggregate was 0-2 in the first half of this match.*Today, PSG has a lesson that a team needs a smart coach and solid players, not only focusing on the quality or individual skills of players.
Interesting Champions League game's this week, we saw both Lewandoski and Karim benzema scoring hat trick.
Some seasons ago, it was between Messi and Ronaldo, now it's meant to rotate round, good startegy from the Italian coach Carlos Ancellotti. A champion will always remaining a champion, with the right player's and teamwork nothing seems impossible.
Benzema had a great game ahead of this tie, good to see them win once again!

After the 1st leg, nobody was expecting this result for sure.
In the first leg, PSG could easily win 3-0.
Never underestimate a Lion. A lion will always be a lion and it is never concerned about the sheep.
Hala Madrid.
