UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE DRAW 2020-21

The UEFA Champions League draw was conducted on 1st October, and some mouthwatering fixtures lie ahead of us. Let us have a look at the groups.

GROUP A


Group A pits FC Bayern Munich against Atletico de Madrid. Will we see a defensive masterclass from Simeone or will Flick’s Bayern run away with it? It would be a great match. The presence of Luis Suarez adds a bit of the revenge element to the game. Salzburg and Locomotiv are not expected to qualify for the knockouts but they will fight it out for the Europa League spot. But in football, surprises ain’t far away.


GROUP B


Real Madrid, Shakhtar Donetsk, Inter Milan and Borussia Monchengladbach make up group B. This is a very exciting group. Achraf Hakimi will face his former side. The fight for 2nd place should go down to the sixth matchday with the pedigree of teams in here.


GROUP C


Porto, Manchester City, Olympiacos and Marseille are in Group C. Manchester City should win this group. The fight for second and third(Europa League place) would be a tough one. The return of Marseille sounds exciting.


GROUP D


Liverpool, Ajax, Atalanta and Midtjylland are the teams which will compete in Group D. Liverpool should be favourites to win this group. Atalanta have kept their best players, and can be expected to do well again. Ajax are a club with history but they don’t really have the players this time around. 

 

 


GROUP E

Europa League winners Sevilla will face Frank Lampard’s Chelsea in this group. Camavingas’s Reness are also there in this group. FC Krasnodar have qualified for the group stage again. 


GROUP F


Dortmund, Zenit, Lazio and Brugge will play in for group F glory. Immobile will face his former side. Brugge is the only team from the Belgian League in the Champions League group stage.

Zenit St. Petersberg will look to leave an impact this year.


GROUP G


The big one. The creme de la creme. Messi VS Ronaldo. Barcelona VS Juventus. This match will stop time. Dynamo Kyiv and Ferencvaros from Ukraine and Hungary make up Group G. 


GROUP H


Paris Saint Germain and Manchester United face off again, but this time in the group stage. RB Leipzig had a great season last time around and would be expected to do well again. Istanbul Basaksehier are a new team but they have good players and they aren’t here to make up the numbers.

Manchester United VS Chelsea : Preview

    Manchester United welcome Chelsea to the Theatre of Dreams. This fixture brings back memories of Frank Lampard’s first match as Chelsea manager when Ole’s reds smashed the blues 4-0. A lot has happened since for both teams but the circumstances leading up to the game are somewhat similar. Manchester United are inconsistent as they had been. Similarly, Chelsea are a team which is trying to find their feet and sort themselves out.  Manchester United, in their midweek Champions League clash against Paris Saint Germain, won via a late Marcus Rashford goal(yes, again!). Manchester United have been wildly inconsistent in the Premier League so far, and have not won two games in a row. They destroyed Newcastle 4-1 at St. James’s Park in their last match but in their previous fixture, Tottenham decimated them 6-1 at home. Their defence, which has been suspect even after expensive reinforcements, somehow conceded only one goal at the hands of Mbappe, Neymar and Di Maria, which ...

Mohun Bagan: The Champions of I-League

Mohun Bagan Athletic Club, one of the oldest clubs in Asia in the space of a calendar year, transformed subpar performances and doubt into victory and jubilation. A script, so perfectly written, that they won the I-League title in the last match before the lockdown was imposed. I remember reading a newspaper article just before the first Calcutta Football League derby, about how rivals East Bengal were the much better side and the fact that Mohun Bagan could only pin their hopes on Spaniard Joseba Beitia if they had to get anything out of the game. In front of a full-house at the Salt Lake Stadium, the Mariners turned in a performance which gave confidence to the fans. They drew the match but created chances at will. This performance made the fans believe.  The managerial genius, that was Kibu Vicuna worked wonders with players like Joseba Beita, Fran Gonzalez, Fran Morante, Papa Diawara, Komron Tursonov and the Indian players.They created magic on the pitch. They stuck to possessi...

VAR: Boon or Bane?

  Ever since its introduction, VAR has sparked controversies all around the globe. While it was believed before its introduction that it would reduce the human errors and provide the referees a second chance to rectify their mistakes, it now has left us pondering whether technology intervention was required in the first place.      The good point is that no foul committed can possibly go unnoticed but the disadvantages are far more with the most disturbing being it stops the flow of the game every now and then and this doesn’t augur well for the beautiful game as the frequent stoppages are disturbing both for the players and the audiences. By this time, we already know there have been a record number of penalties awarded in this season’s Premier League and credit goes to VAR for awarding them without much hesitation. For the first time ever we saw a team score after the final whistle. Yes, you heard that right. Manchester United’ s game against Brighton was completed...
