Undoubtedly one of the worst Bayern performances in recent memory, defense was practically nonexistent and they were lucky they didn't lose 5-0.

Can't see them turning this one around.

To be fair, it doesn't look like anyone is capable of stopping City in the champions league this year.

To be fair, it's not really Tuchel's fault that Davis and Upemacano went full retard today. Last season Upemacano did exactly what he did today and he did it a lot. But he got better in the later stages of last season and with beginning of the current season. And especially during the World Cup. But today? Holy shit.

It's also not Tuchel's fault that Bayern decided to not get a replacement for Lewandowski. Choupo-Moting had his surprise rise although he doesn't exactly play the same position as Lewandowski. And they don't have any replacement for him if he get's injured - which he is atm.

And let's not forget: Until tonight Bayern won every match this CL season and only got 2 goals scored against them. Bayern was a serious contender - until tonight. Their defense fell apart.

I'm betting on a Man City x Napoli final, where City will just trash Napoli.

I wouldn't be so sure about Napoli getting through the quarterfinal. They just lost to Milan 4-0 in Serie A and Osimhen has been confirmed out for the first leg tomorrow, which is in Milan. It should be interesting.

Yeah, I was disappointed with the draw cause I think these are the two best teams left. I thought Bayern actually looked pretty good in the first half, they missed a few chances but still hung in there for most the game. Anything could've happened if Upemacano didn't do his disaster loss of possession.

Yeah, I watched that game, it was a pretty shocking result but Napoli are still the better team and will want revenge. Milan can defeat them again obviously, and I want them to win but Napoli are the favourites, IMO.
 
UEFA had a live tivker running for the ManCity x Bayern game and the guy who took care of it made a joke about the Nagelsmann-Bayern-situation. Around the 80th minute he wrote in the ticker "A penny for Nagelsmann's thoughts".

UEFA fired him and officially apologized to Bayern.
 
In CONCACRAP Champions League I'm hoping Philly can eliminate Atlas down in Guadalajara tonight . We only have 1-0 lead on aggregate though.

They kept it close enough and should be able to advance if Osimhen is back for the second leg. But if he's not, I think they could struggle. They haven't looked nearly as good without him in the past few games.

I can't believe after beating Juve and PSG in the group stage, they are about to go out to Inter. I hope I'm wrong but I don't see Inter blowing their lead at home.

I had put Napoli reaching the final on my UCL Bracket but went and changed to Milan, hopefully I won't regret it.

And now they want Mourinho. I love him but I'm not willing to watch Saudi football just for him, or CR7.

The Union pulled it off. Atlas players and fans alike chimped out, and the infamous PUTO chant was audibly heard more than once. However the referee was a gutless coward and didn't suspend the game like he was supposed to per FIFA regulations.

LAFC are next in the semifinal. Hopefully it's payback time.
