Zapping World Eleven Guardiola compares Haaland to Cruyff and Ibrahimovic
End of the first period during the Champions League evening and the clash between Inter Milan and Barça changed just before the break! The Blaugrana club, with an Ousmane Dembélé who somewhat annoys his partners by excess of individualism, had already gotten hot with a hand from Eric Garcia in the area which could have been worth a penalty… But a very short offside de Correa earlier in action saved the Catalans. A short reprieve since just before the break, Calhanoglu found the flaw on a serve from Di Marco to unlock the Milan counter (1-0)!
In other matches, Trent Alexander-Arnold very quickly lit up Liverpool’s evening with a masterful free kick to open the scoring against Rangers (1-0). First period rich in spectacle in Amsterdam with Naples leading to the score (3-1). Kudus unlocked the counter quickly (9th) but Raspadori quickly equalized before Di Lorenzo, with a perfect header from a cross from Kvaratskhelia, gave the Neapolitans the advantage. Zielinski allowed Napoli to break just before the break.
While Brugge leads against Atlético Madrid (1-0) thanks to Sowah who took advantage of superb work from Jutgla, the end of the first period between Porto and Bayer Leverkusen was totally crazy. While Taremi thought he had opened the scoring, a hand from a partner was finally signaled earlier in the action, turning the Portuguese goal into a German penalty. But Patrick Schick failed in his attempt! All for a score of 0-0 at the break, just like in the meeting Frankfurt – Tottenham.
to summarize
At the break of the Champions League matches, the clash Inter – Barça rocked before half-time while Liverpool, Naples and Bruges hold the good end. Trent Alexander-Arnold nevertheless shone with a magnificent free kick in Liverpool.
