European mega-clubs Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and FC Barcelona remained in the middle of the reorganized UEFA Champions League phase.
The second leg of the 2024-2025 UEFA Champions League phase was held on the 2nd and 3rd (Korean time).
Starting this season, three European competitions, including the Champions League, have been expanded from 32 teams to 36 teams, and accordingly, the composition of the tournament is different from that of the previous season.
Unlike the previous season, when 32 teams were divided into eight groups and played in the group stage, a total of eight matches will be played in a single league under the 36-team system without forming a group. Four home games and four away games will be played, and one team will randomly draw one home team and one away team for each of the four ports to form a match.
In order to counter the sudden emergence of the "Super League" in April 2021, UEFA reorganized the Champions League system with the aim of expanding prize money, increasing the number of matches, and providing opportunities for lower-ranking UEFA club teams to compete in European competitions.
The Super League, which was created by Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, and Juventus, has been planning to hold a megaton-class competition for 20 years, where only European big clubs will gather together to continue to face off between strong teams, and when it was revealed to the surface, it shocked people. The system of excluding the national league and focusing on the Super League has caused great opposition to the European soccer community, which has distinct regional characteristics.
In particular, the Premier League's Big Six (Manchester United, Manchester City, Tottenham, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea) withdrew their participation in the Super League and the Super League lost its momentum. Still, the leading clubs Real, Barcelona and Juventus remain in the project.
Real and Barcelona, plus Bayern Munich, one of the other European mega-clubs, were humiliated when they lost to a relatively weak team in the newly revamped Champions League phase.
With 25% of the league schedule passed, the current three teams are ranked 15th to 17th out of 36 teams, just the middle. Munich is ranked 15th (1-1 loss, 3 points, 3 goalscoring + 3 points), Barcelona is 16th (1-1 loss, 3 points, 3 goalscoring + 3 points), and Real is 17th (1-1 loss, 3 points, 3 goalscoring + 3 points).
Barcelona was the first to lose.
In the first match, FC Barcelona lost 1-2, while it was away to AS Monaco (France). Barcelona was put under numerical inferiority after defender Eric Garcia was sent off at the 11th minute of the first half, and the team lost 1-2. Fortunately, the team secured a multi-score victory by garnering a landslide 5-0 victory at home against the Swiss team on Wednesday.
Real and Munich lost the second game on the 3rd.
In the first match, Real beat Stuttgart 3-1 at home. However, the team lost 0-1 in the second match against France on the day. Kylian Mbappe started from the bench, but strong strikers including Vinicius Junior, Jude Bellingham, Federico Valverde and Endrick were deployed.
Despite this, Real scored 12 shots and five shots on goal, but was blocked by the opposing goalkeeper. On the other hand, forward Jonathan David scored the final goal on the penalty kick to secure the victory.
Munich got off to a good start with a 9-2 victory in the first leg against Dynamo Zagreb (Croatia). Munich has shown great prowess in the group stage from the group stage to the match against Zagreb in the 2017-2018 season, with 41 matches unbeaten.
However, the team suffered a shock 0-1 defeat in an away match against the Aston Villa in England on Saturday. At the 34th minute of the second half, Manuel Neuer, who was out in front of the box with John Duran, was careless and attempted a long-range shot, and this was a success. After Neuer's defeat, Munich failed to tie the game and ended its unbeaten streak of 41 matches.
At the current league stage, Borussia Dortmund (Germany) is the top. A total of seven teams have won two consecutive games, of which Dortmund have scored a whopping 10 goals in two matches, reaching +9 goal difference.
The unexpected team won against Sturum Graz and Salzburg (Austria) as second-place Brest (France).
PSG (France), which includes Lee Kang-in, tied for 18th (goal difference -1) with Lille (France) with one win and one loss. Yang Hyun-joon's Celtic team also has one win and one loss, but ranks 20th (goal difference -2) after trailing in goal difference. Hwang In-beom's team Feyenoord ranked 22nd (goal difference -3) by winning 3-2 in the second match against Girona (Spain) after one loss.
Seol Young-woo's team, Tsurvena Zvezda (Serbia), ranked 33rd (goal difference -5) with two consecutive losses.
Meanwhile, teams ranking 1st to 8th in the league stage will go straight to the round of 16, while teams ranking 9th to 24th will have a home-and-away playoff with eight remaining spots in the round of 16. These teams will face the burden of having to play two more games in addition to their already stretched schedules. Rankings 25th to 36th will be eliminated from all European matches, not the Europa League relegation, which is a lower-level tournament. 토토사이트
