Club Brugge is currently holding Atlanta to a draw in today's champions League playoffs game the first half ended with a 1:1 draw but so far the second half have not produced any goal yet and the game is at the 73' minutes of play but the two teams have failed to find the back of the net so far in this second half I expected more goals from this game from the way the first half ended but in this second half it seems that the both teams have become more defensive and is doing everything to avoid conceiving goals with the way things are going in this game it's likely to end in a d aw and it will give Atlanta an edge going into the second leg at home in Italy

Club Brugge somehow stole the show in the final minute of the game from the penalty spot, I really thought it was going to be a stalemate with just 3 minutes of extra time being added, now that Club Brugge has the advantage, the 2nd leg is going to be a more intense affair, while I’d still expect Atalanta to qualify for the next round, Club Brugge isn’t going to be a walk in the park for them.

Club Brugge will move into the second leg with a goal advantage and if they can get a draw away in Italy will see them go through to the next round of the competition nice performance by club brugge as they managed to win this game but huge disappointment for Atlanta because with the way that they played in the weekend I expected them to win or at least get a point from this game because now they will have to get a win too go and it's going to be difficult for them because club brugge will like to defend and get them in the counter in the second leg am really not impressed with Atlanta performance because this was one club that was scoring plenty of goals at the beginning of the season but of recent scoring goals has become a problem to Atlanta

The Manchester City vs Real Madrid match is currently on, and both teams are holding each other on a draw match(1-1) for a few minutes to end the second half. I can't really say the team that will later win the match because both team's strength in this match is being equal with attempts made against each other to score.

FULL-TIME  City 2- 3 Madrid.
Unbelievable...how can City give it away in the final minutes of the game?
Real Madrid's frontline is on fire... meanwhile, Man City fans are crying. lol
Rico had no business in that game, He’s an atrocious right back, same goes for Ederson. Doku left on the bench when they needed the press was a big loss, Savio didn’t have the big impacts expected. Poor subs decisions from the coach were made and City gave it all away. There's work to do for Pep in Madrid

How will Pep Guardiola be able to face off Real Madrid in their home, in the second leg, if they can't win them at Etihad?

I find this loss match of Manchester City to be fortunate because they had the possibility of winning the match in their hands but they waste it away because of poor defending.

Pep Guardiola will be really disappointed about the loss match because he never thought it to be so. He thought Manchester City are back in their winning ways

But I think here Pep Guardiola made a mistake by rotating and replacing his players, so that it could be utilized very well by Real Madrid.

I don't know about that. I thought his selection for the match was also good. They also had plenty of chances to bury the game with two strikes hitting the crossbar and the woodwork.

Milan still could not overturn Paixão's early goal for Feyenoord. The latter is also more aggressive in the first half which makes it harder for Milan.

Harry Kane probably securing their ticket to the next round with another goal against Celtics in the first leg.

Today's round is almost over, still a few minutes left in 3 of the games.
The only concluded one was a surprise win of Club Brugge over Atalanta (2-1). I thought the Italian team would be the dominating side, but it was a fairly even game and Club Brugge won by a penalty in additional time. I still think Atalanta has more chances to go through, I'm confident they'll do much better at home.

The other surprise is Feyenorrod leading 1-0 against AC Milan, the only goal (so far) was scored by Paixao, who made a shot from outside the penalty area and the ball found its way to the net because of Milan's goalkeeper's poor intervention (the pouring rain didn't help).

[sampoerna]

Some surprising results occurred in this match.
Full time results:
Feyenoord 1 vs 0 Milan
Club Brugge 2 vs 1 Atalanta

Both Milan and Atalanta lost in the first leg, of course this is very unfortunate, even though they played away but they should have been able to win, but what can you do, they lost. and in the second leg they have to win on aggregate to be able to advance to the next round.

Since Man City can't win in their home, it is more difficult to win in Real Madrid home. I don't see a chance for Guardiola to win in Real Madrid home because Real Madrid must have a more motivation to win at their home. Man City has a big problem with their strategy, teamwork, and mentality of the players. Maybe there will be many things to be fixed by Guardiola after this seasons ends. They may be better to focus on EPL only, to secure their position in UCL zone for the next season.

Manchester City will end this season without any trophy; they need to make sure they have a Champions League spot by next season because that can drift away too.

I was disappointed by Atalanta; failing to win Club Brugge must have ruined many betting tickets. Also Ac Milan losing to Feyenoord. The only game that went as expected was Bayern winning; the experience of Rogers could not topple the quality of the Bayern Munich team.

At first it was good, but after making player substitutions I think there was a strategy that did not go according to plan.

AC Milan could not score a single goal so they had to go home with a defeat in this match. They had difficulty facing Feyenoord's defense which I think is quite solid, also there was bad luck every time they attacked so they had to lose.

Two teams from Serie A yesterday faced a bitter reality because they both lost. AC Milan and Atalanta both lost. Even though I hope both of them can win. But it seems my hopes were too big. AC Milan failed to take advantage of the opportunities they got. And yes, it must be admitted that Feyenoord's defense is quite solid. And regarding Atalanta, they lost due to a penalty kick that Club Brugge received in the added minute of time.

Most of the City's losses this year are due to individual mistakes by the players or the goalkeeper. In this match, Real's second goal was due to a wrong pass from Ederson and the third goal was a mistake by Rico Luis.
Pep got reinforcement in January and decided not to use any new signings. No wonder they lost.
Pep has new tools to solve his problems but keeps using the old tools that caused the problems.
I hope he'll use all the new players in the second leg. New tools to solve his problems

I think both inter Milan and Atlanta can overturn the results of the first leg because they only look lost by one goal margin so going into the second leg they have their face against the wall so it's either they win or face elimination and the good thing is they are playing at home that can be an added advantage to them I see both Atlanta and Milan going through to the next phase

Mistakes must occur for the other side to take advantage of and win the match. Pep believes mors in his old players than new players because they're more experienced when playing Real Madrid. However, what makes you think that the new players would have been able to make a difference or win Madrid. The fact is that Pep glory was from his old players but they're aging.

[Agbe]

You're actually right because this season if you look at the Manchester City set-up there are a lot of players that are really old and apart from one or two players that was brought into the team it is virtually the same players who has been there over the years and again some key players even left the team and still expecting a good result from this team is one big mistake that pep is doing this semester because but going into the Madrid game city even out performed my expectations concerning them because for them to even with stand this Madrid team for up to even 60 minutes is even a plus to them because even when Manchester was at their peak they could not win Madrid but the fact is that with or without Old or younger players city will still lose to Madrid currently
