this has to be Juventus worst night in europe since idk when but it has to be among the biggest upsets

Juventus and my Real Madrid KO'd from the CL in the same night  Shocked

tomorrow, Napoli to Qualify and Bayern to WIN? sounds like a good ticket for a parlay, no?
Without Dybala, Ronaldo got troubles to connect with his partners in front and Higuain has another bad performance in important match. In my opinion, Juventus deserve to go through because the penalty for Lyon looks to be wrong decision. I don't understand why with VAR, the referee still decided to give Lyon that penalty. Without VAR, I can understand but ...

Without Ramos, Real Madrid has a weak defense system and Man City took mistakes of Varane so well. They can even score more goals.

Though it's not the result I wanted but i saw it coming. Varane wasn't confident tonight. I guess Ramos' absence had so much effect on him, and he sold us out right from the first Manchester City Goal
Did you know ..
Real madrid's last 7 champions league games in knock-out stage without ramos : 5 lost , 1 draw and only 1 won.
Now it's 6th with 2-1 down to Manchester City, terrible form. They might will make another transfer saga in the next transfer window, as this result of course fuming .

For now Manchester City is the top candidate to win Champions League.. even sportsbetting providers put Bayern Munich below them.

Can Manchester City go all the way?

I didn't get the chance to watch the match due to terrible connection, but after seeing statistics it looks like Man City totally dominated which did not surprise me as Real Madrid is in bad form and they won the title without playing football, doing it on individual quality. You can't do it only on individual quality against Man City.

It they don't find form magically I don't see them going through.

poor juve...  Sad
in the first minute when Memphis scored for Lyon I was limp to watch the game. Ronaldo did well in this match scoring 2 goals but Lyon was luckier, congratulations to Lyon for progressing to the next round.

I also feel the same way, when Depay managed to score a goal from a penalty kick I was hopeless. Even though Juventus has
played very well by winning the match, but his previous match won by Lyon. Made Juventus must fail, because they lost on
aggregate from Lyon.

I this aswell with tomorrow game between Napoli and Barcelona and a lot of tipsers are going with Napoli so I guess I'm going against them with a 3+ Barca goals. On the other game , Bayern will win and probably will reach finals this year or even win the UCL but I would not exclude City too.

This result is in accordance with predictions, previously I was sure Manchester City would still win the match despite winning 2-1 in the first leg. Regarding Juventus, not sure about winning but in fact Juventus won in this second leg but still, winning 2-1 still didn't make Juventus go to the next round because of the aggressiveness of the away goals. For tomorrow's match, I think it will be another easy bet for Bayern Munich and Barcelona to win, hopefully.
For Bayern Munch its ok but for match between Barcelona vs Napoli this is not easy as Barcelona is also facing some serious troubles so this match can go either way in this match over is good bet as both teams able to have some good players so few goals can happen and over is winner.

As expected City and Lyon to the quarter final! Too bad for Juventus, Madrid and their fans Sad

For tomorrow's match, I think it will be another easy bet for Bayern Munich and Barcelona to win, hopefully.
Bayern is rocking in Bundesliga and with 3-0 advantage, it relatively easy for them to pass to the next round but also to win tomorrow's match.
For Barcelona, I am a bit worried. They have the motivation to achieve something this season but their performance isn't good...at all... They have only the 1 goal advantage and maybe, maybe if Messi will be in very very good condition he can do something. That's all.

Final results:
Juventus vs Lyon 2:1 (Aggregate: 2-2)
Manchester City vs Real Madrid 2:1 (Aggregate: 4-2)

Again all home wins, but it was not enough for Juventus to progress even with two goals scored by C.Ronaldo. Both bets won for that match.
Deserved win for City, and I expected more from Real Madrid, maybe a draw Smiley

More Champions League playoff matches tomorrow.

yeah, with two home teams as clear favorites, and ten home wins in both European competitions in a row
one has to let down, maybe Bavarians, since they do not need a win against Chelsea, that is already solved, will put something on x2, although Chelsea has a bunch of players that are injured or with cards for tomorrow

For Real , Benzema is the only one that seems to be doing well in attacking area. He is finding positions to score and doing good so far. Loving the way Benzema is playing this season.

Hazard wasnt doing anything great on this match either. You could say that Benzema carry the whole Real Madrid squad this season with 21 goals, only 4 goals difference compared with Messi. Too bad they lose on this round to Manchester City. City was simply better this season

Can we all agree that Varrane is a player that should be in LaLiga 2 or 3 ? Because this player never had any real value and is just a bet of Zidane because he is a french player. I understand that you're at Real and you cannot substitute a player when he makes mistakes but lets be honest , this player costs Real Madrid game tonight and I hope he will never ever be used at my favorite team.

He was decent and for a club like Real Madrid, Decent is definitely not enough but there werent many players that could hold the backline anymore especially with Sergio Ramos missing because of the Red Card



Any reason on why Marcelo wasnt playing tonight? too bad though

Juventus is only build on Ronaldo right now and I think he will leave this summer for a surprise ( maybe a United comeback ). Also why did Dybala play ? He barely stood on his feet...

Sarri out? He got a lot criticism during season and now he weren't able to beat team which basically haven't played competetive football since March. Juve had ball posession and more chances, but they didn't played good football.
City - Real. It was really good game but awful Varane mistake killed Real and answered all questions.

I am just thinking over what would have been the result if both penalties weren't given!! Huh
Simple, without those penalties the score would 1-1 for both. And there has been  tiebreaker to decide the winner.

Last 5 minutes and City is leading 2-1 vs Real Madrid so I assume it is over in this game.
For Juventus and Lyon still 2 - 1, any surprise maybe in the last minute?
Had the hope for Real Madrid till last moment but could not open the net. I don't understand was Varane nervous in this big stage without Ramose? RM conceded both goals for his own fault. Don't expect these childish mistakes from a world cup winner defender.
But hat's off to Man City. They deserve this win and maybe deserve the UCL too. They got almost all speed star on their team. So much pressing.
