Hello friends, good vibes to all.

One more week of Champions League and with them the most accurate adjective that can be given: magical nights. They were a couple of days that in general did not disappoint because there were many goals and those who are supposed to be the "favorites" won, but the truth is that seeing the level of play of some teams it seems that getting up is costing them a little more than it should and that despite the fact that several dates have already passed there is no improvement anywhere.

Real Madrid, Barcelona, PSG, ManU, Chelsea, Juventus, Bayern, etc. won their respective matches, but the thing is that some of them did not win by convincing or dominating, they won because luck often accompanies the great ones. The case of the red devils of Manchester who started a match playing in a horrendous way with a weak defense, with many cracks and with a desperate and lost Cristiano.

But soccer is wonderful and always gives second chances and look how they took advantage of it with an exceptional second half, playing what they have to play, finding spaces, making connections from midfield to the top and above all exerting a great pressure to the point of coming back from a 2-0 deficit and taking it to 2-3 to achieve the victory. This is the Manchester United I want to see, the one that stands up, fights and wins a game with grit and good play.

Following the same slingshot above are those of the Casa Blanca who overwhelmed Shakhtar Donetsk 5-0 in an almost perfect match and with Vinicius in impressive form. We can say that Madrid are finding their "touch" from the hand of Don Carletto and Benzema who is another one who is delivering in practically EVERY game.

It is true that they were coming from 2 defeats, one in the league and the other in the Champions League against Sheriff, but in Tuesday's match there was no sign of any kind of weakening. I think this result was even a bit of a surprise because no one expected such a defeat, and an away one at that. Let's hope that this good performance continues in view of the upcoming derby next Sunday.

Among other lights we have the one that never fails, Bayern scoring goals left and right. This week's victim was Benfica, who lost 4-0, undoubtedly the great favorite so far to win this edition of the Champions League. And also Chelsea, reigning champion, who thrashed the Swedish Malmö 4-0 with a brilliant performance by Jorginho with a double. The Londoners have 6 points in this Champions League but everything seems to indicate that they will have no problems to advance.

We got to the darkness but it is a rather rare one because the teams in this section won. PSG won their match against RB Leipzig 3-2 but playing BAD and without any kind of clarity, individualities are saving the French team's life. What we must take into account is that this is certainly a team in formation, pretending that because they have all the stars they have they will annihilate their rivals is a lie and is not wanting to understand the real game.

They lack association, every now and then they make a move with more than 5 passes near the box but it comes to nothing because there is no depth. Pochettino may be finding it difficult to manage a dressing room with so many stars but PSG doesn't exist on the pitch, if it wasn't for a spark from Mbappe or a run from Messi this project would be a monumental disappointment in terms of results.

But if we are going to talk about disappointments it is better to do it with those who take the prize in this department. The Barcelona vs Dynamo Kyiv match was one of the MOST boring and mediocre I have seen in recent times, I am not exaggerating. The Ukrainians didn't reach the Catalans goal ONCE but Barca is not far behind because their offense is completely null and void to the point that it was Piqué who scored the goal.

A non-existent Memphis Depay, who started the season on fire but little by little he has been getting less and less, a Luuk De Jong who does not quite fit in this team missing monumental goals and a mismatch between the midfield and the front that makes the goals do not come. Small lights with Ansu Fati but still not enough to carry on his shoulders the weight of a team with such a big name and if he starts on the bench, he will have less chance. In short, Koeman's performance is pitiful.

And finally, another team that despite being undefeated today was the Vecchia Signora. They took the victory 1-0 when the game was dying against the Russians of Zenit in a rather boring and forgettable match for both teams. The truth is that I will always expect much more from Juventus and even more knowing that they have a squad that can give a better show than the one they gave yesterday.

The dates are passing and we are more or less seeing how the teams are behaving in order to be able to make predictions of the possible candidates to win both this medal and the "orejona". There is still a long way to go but there are already certain names that stand out above the rest...

Well my people that's all for today, I hope you liked it.
¡Hugs to all, see you next time!
