Champion's League quarter-final week 07/04/2026

[Insidious]

Don't see a thread - if the forum is acting up or someone makes one at the same time, apologies.

0-0 so far in the Real Madrid v Bayern Munich match. In the unlikely event that we got past PSG I'd rather face Bayern, as their capacity to go 4-2-4 in attacking possession phases can leave gaps in midfield that could be worked with.

Should be a good match this as Bayern are full of goals.

Sporting playing well so far opening ten minutes. Hope they can keep this going

Set piece FC have now started to get into the game

[Insidious]

Regularly this season we have touched on there being quality in this squad, but it being imbalanced.

On more than a few occasions Vinicius and Mbappe have both wanted to be on the left, meaning Trent has had to look up at the two of them being 40+ yards away if we wants to pick one out.

Diaz scores! We'll see if it counts.

[Insidious]

The replay shows Diaz sneaking in behind, you guessed it, Trent - who didn't know where Diaz was until it was too late.

Which of course has never happened before.

[Insidious]

Kane makes it 2-0 from outside the box.

[Insidious]

Vinicius misses a chance through his own poor decision-making, attempting to take the ball around an onrushing Neuer - probably misses the target by a couple of feet.

Both sides have had mistakes in them tonight, especially at the back.

[teesred]

Bayern look outstanding. Difficult to see past them winning it.

Trent makes them pay - superb ball for Mbappe

[Insidious]

Mbappe makes it 2-1 from close range - excellent ball from Trent to make up for a largely poor night.

[teesred]

Aye that was a fantastic ball in from Trent.

[Steveo]

Bayern are so wasteful

[Steveo]

Musiala twice now with superb chances - wasted both

[Steveo]

Diaz to Olise and it should be 3:1 - Olise goes with the wrong foot and fluffs it

[Insidious]

Diaz fizzed a ball needlessly at Olise, which should have been 3-1 for Bayern courtesy of a tap-in, but Diaz botches it.

Not a reflection of his overall performance to be fair - largely a good game - but that needed to be better.
