It is time for watching another football show in the Milan - Liverpool game today. I remember their last game against each other in the group. Milan made them really big difficulties but Liverpool still managed to be victorious by a 3-2 result. I expect another game with many goals truthfully. But this time, Milan might not be the losing side. My score predictions are 2-2 and 3-2.
i will not miss the Liverpool vs Milan match, Liverpool and Milan have become eternal rivals, the two teams will definitely appear adamant and will not give in but this time Milan will benefit from playing at the San Siro.  i also predict a thin score for Milan's victory in this match (2-1 0r 3-2)

It ended by 2-1 but the other way around.  Grin Liverpool were the team to beat by this score and I was sad to witness it. Although Liverpool were already safe in their group, Milan still let them win just like that. And as Atletico Madrid defeated Porto by 3-1 away too, they managed to move on in this tournament. And we see that Milan are out of all of the European tournaments for this season now.

I bet on the victories of Atalanta and Benfica in today's matches. In case of victory, Atalanta will secure promotion to the knockout stage of the Champions League. Benfica must win against Dynamo, the weakest team in the group, and expect Barcelona not to win in Munich. Knowing what form Barcelona are in lately, Bayern, even in the reserve squad, may turn out to be too strong a team for them.
I am not so sure about Atalanta. They have this tendency to mess up when you expect them to win and play well when they seem like the underdogs. The Champions League is different from the domestic Serie A and I give a slight edge to Spanish teams compared to those from Italy.

Bayern will play this match without several starters. They will be resting some of their players because they have already qualified and secured the first place. I still think that Lewandowski will be very motivated to show Messi's ex-team what he thinks of Messi's Ballon d'Or win. I also see this as a Bayern win, but I want to wait with my bet until I see the official lineups for the match.

I think that Manchester United is a good choice tonight.
Both Benfica and Dynamo have injury concerns.

Porto had to accept defeat to Atletico because this was a very dramatic match, maybe many thought Porto would qualify but it all turned around and it was Atletico who had the upper hand.

Playing at the do Dragao Stadium made Porto play with high motivation to beat Atletico Madrid, but unfortunately they failed to get 3 points in the last match, I saw both teams playing with high intensity and often committing quite hard offenses against opposing players, so the match had to be offten stopped by the referee to give cards, even though they failed to advance to the last 16 of the Champions League, Porto were a little luckier than AC Milan, because by placing 3rd, they still had the opportunity to play in the UEFA Europa League and unlike AC Milan, which have to go straight to the suitcase after the game is over.

Milan screwed things up big time last night. They needed to win against Liverpool to be able to continue in the Champions League. And they got ahead 1-0 first too. But they weren't capable of keeping the score at it or opening the gap. Even though Liverpool were in a comfortable condition, they still made a comeback and won by 2-1. But as Atletico Madrid won by 3-1, Milan needed to win by at least 2 goals though. It was already hard for them.

Real Madrid surprised me last night against Inter Milan. Madrid is gradually becoming a team to beat again in UCL. The restructuring plan is paying off very fast. The mixture of the experienced and energetic young kids is great. I was feeling a way about the match because they were to face inform Inter Milan without Benzema. But Real Madrid shocked me with a good performance and and reminded me that such a team doesn't rely on individual quality.. despite with the absence of Benzema they still won flawlessly defeating the champion of Italy, what a team. The side are on the right track, which is something that has been heard all season but is now really being seen. Ancelotti is a great manager.

Milan doesn't have the players to achieve anything remarkable in the UEFA Champions League.
Ibrahimovich is too old and the rest of the Milan players are kinda mediocre.
Milan would have a better chance at the Europa League tournament.
Anyway,I'm not surprised by any of the results which happened yesterday.All the teams that were better actually won against their weaker opponents.
RB Leipzig winning against Man City wasn't a surprise,because Man City are qualified for the next round.
Messi scored two goals,but Brugge is a pretty weak opponent against the multi-million team of PSG.

After a long absence in the champions league, ac milan this season I thought it would be a surprise for all of us, but in fact they were not able to talk much this season and in fact they were humiliated by only being able to get 4 points from 6 matches, I think the mentality of the AC Milan players in European competition today are quite different from a few years ago, it seems that now Milan should really focus on the Scudetto and try other luck in the Champions League next season.

We can see how Liverpool and Ajax, both teams are absolutely perfect in this group stage. That way, I'm sure Bayern Munich will do the same because it will be a great record for the club and also, only Bayern Munich have the chance to do the same in today's match. I really don't think Barcelona will win here and regarding the bets you make, I agree with both teams who are indeed better than their opponents. So yes, I'm sure the result will be as predicted but the odds obtained from Atalanta @1.7x, I think it's still a low odds considering the opponent is Villarreal. Although Villarreal so far don't look good in the league, but in this tournament Villarreal certainly still has the spirit to qualify and of course it will be a tough match.

Did anybody watch the Porto - Atletico game yesterday? First a really silly direct red card for Carrasco for pushing/elbowing a Porto player in a situation when Atletico was in the lead and just needed to wait the game out, but after that a truly bizarre situation in which Porto's Wendell does the same thing 3 minutes later when they have player advantage and still 25 minutes to play.

To round it up, there was a huge touchline brawl as well, with more suspensions. Atletico ultimately won easily and secured the knockouts, but it was really an even game before Wendell's stupidity.
Crazy match, They played pretty hot in this match.
Talking about the red card, they did something useless in my opinion because the red card for both ATMs and Porto actually didn't need to be done.
On the other hand apart from that I feel Atletico are quite good in the game, They dominate in all lines so it's not wrong they did 3 goals quite well

Inter Milan was still unable to fight Madrid and had to go 2-0 down, Inter had to lose Barella because they were too emotional so the referee gave their card so for me this is a loss for Inter who still have long time left.

Porto had to accept defeat to Atletico because this was a very dramatic match, maybe many thought Porto would qualify but it all turned around and it was Atletico who had the upper hand.

Besiktas have never been awarded a point and they have lost every game.

Liverpool is still unbeatable, they won in their last 6 CL matches, and Origi probably scored his first goal in the Champion League this season yesterday in their game against AC Milan. Milan performance so far in the Champion League have been poor, they were only able to win 1 match, while they lost 4. Winning the game against Liverpool could have given them the opportunity to play in the Europe League. Although, it seems their focus have been mainly on their Serie A matches. However, this is the end of the road for them in the Champion League.
The record broken by Liverpool for being the first EPL club to win all their group stage matches in UCL is a well deserved merit having been consistent in their performance so far in UCL, despite klopp making eight changes to his side by giving opportunity to other players, they convincingly won the match against AC milan, a good performance by Liverpool, next is the knock out stage which will be highly competitive though it obvious Liverpool will play a runner-up in another group being their group leader, I think their opponent wouldn't be formidable enough to beat them when the knock out stages kickoff in February 2022.
When they, Liverpool were grouped at the beginning of the competition everyone said they were not going to qualify for the knockouts but now look how they done that. Liverpool made the group of death look easier, Liverpool is so good this season, I am not a Liverpool fan but I like the kind of football this Liverpool are playing. Might win EPL and UCL again. The so called group of death and turn out being the first English team to win 6/6 games in the group stages. They are formidable now and with the way they are playing teams wont want to play them. My only concern right now is when Mo Salah, Mane Sadio and Naby Keita leaves for Afcon, will this form continue?

Atletico is crazy. Start the last game bottom, finish the group second.
When all other clubs were playing rubbish. Liverpool had 18 points which means it won all its group stage matches while other clubs had low points, Atletico Madrid had just 7 points and was the second on the table, it was not still encouraging at all.
Liverpool wiped out all the games and this is the same as what ajax did.
They look like a team that is without gaps in all matches. They seem to be on a different level compared to the other teams in Group B.
6 Games, 17 goals and they only conceded 6 goals this is not something all teams can achieve.
Hopefully they will continue their good performance in the next phase

Paris saint Germans triumph over club brugge today, Lionel Messi scoring twice and Kylian Mbappe scoring two also.
Not having much of creativity from the middle, attacking players be acting like a midfielder and attacker.
Qualification for the round sixteen,let's see who comes next.


Blub brugge is not the proportional opponents for Psg. They are like the sky and the earth. No wonder tho if PSG had a goal party last night. But at least Club Brugge still able to score a single goal even that didnt change the final outcome. PSG wins with big goal difference

Against weaker teams PSG has no problems and wins based on individual quality.
It’s a whole other story when they play against stronger teams like Manchester City.
Then all the problems in their game come to the fore, especially the problem of three walkers in the team, Neymar, Messi and Mbappe, who simply don't help the defense and against serious teams PSG always has 3 players less in the defense phase.
If they don't change that, PSG in my opinion will not be the favorite to win the Champions League, regardless of all the money invested in the team.

Milan's performance has been poor since the start of the Champions League. They have won just one match. However, their performance in Serie A is very good. Their main goal is the Serie A title. So in the Champions League matches, they did not form a team with any different strategy. They didn't think the Champions League matches were important. Seeing their performance, it seems so.
I think so too, but Champions League is not that easy if comparing it to countries club leagues, UEFA Champions League is tougher and players put more energy. If home league is what they want to focus on, they have the time now. But all other clubs in their group stage are also good, like their giant Liverpool, Atletico Madrid is not in good performance but not that poor.

Atletico is crazy. Start the last game bottom, finish the group second.

I'm a bit sad that Milan didn't even qualified to Europa league and finished last. But it's death group and someone had to die. Liverpool won without most of main players. Milan had their chances, like Kessie who failed to score in the end.

Yes, Milan are still unlucky in this match, Milan had a chance to score through Kessi and Ibrahimovic in the last 10 minutes to equalize the score, but they still failed . However, Milan has shown a good performance in this match. Now Milan can focus on Serie-A, hopefully Serie-A or Copa Italia is one of the titles that Milan can get this season.

Atletico was quite surprising, even though I expected Atletico to win, but the 3 goals they scored against Porto was surprised me. Because I don't think Atletico will scored more than 2 goals.

This was the true exciting group for all neutrals. One team was perfect and one team was absolutely terrible and this was AC Milan. And it was such a heartbreak too after getting the last injury goal in the 5th game,,, Ibrahimovic must be feeling devastated they cannot even continue in Europa League.

Atletico is crazy. Start the last game bottom, finish the group second.

Well yesterday was a very profitable day and the games were more predictable, too bad I didn't put more money... I regretted it

FC Porto 1 - 3 Atletico Madrid



Real Madrid 2 - 0 Inter Milano



Real Madrid don't concede a single goal

AC Milan 1 - 2 Liverpool FC



liverpool won this game because Milan make childhood mistakes in defense and don't have players to score, I know you can say: " but there is ibrahimovic ", but ibrahimovic's age is already a problem and the rest of Milan players are lazy
