The second round of Champions League had few exciting matches. We have many games that attracted our attention. First of all, we have to start with the Real Madrid match at the Bernabeu.

 

Real Madrid 2-2 Club Brugge KV

Real Madrid has the worst start of the Champions League season in its history. After just two matches, Real Madrid has 1 point. Real Madrid was the favorite team to win the group, but now they have doubts about the 1/8 finals.

Real Madrid started the match against Brugge with confidence. Zidane said that Real Madrid players were not focused on the game as they thought Brugge would be an easy opponent. And Los Blancos players forgot one crucial fact – Brugge had not lost any match this season. Does that make sense? Real Madrid players were in the worst shape for the game.

Brugge started the match with a few sharp attacks and scored a goal soon. Dennis played a fantastic game and scored two goals. One interesting fact – Dennis celebrated the second goal like Cristiano Ronaldo. After the match, Brugge forward said that Real Madrid lost the biggest star, and he reminded it to Real Madrid authorities with celebration. Sergio Ramos and Casemiro could score in the second half, and Real Madrid saved one point.

Tottenham 2-7 Bayern Munich                     

Bayern players were in a good mood before the match. They have posted a few photos where players were joking around, and the team had a fun atmosphere. As it seems, Munich players had one goal in mind – demolish the North London club.

Tottenham started the match with sharp attacks, and Son scored a goal on 11th minute. Bayern equalized the game, and the goal was from Kimmich. Lewandowski scored on 45th minute, and Bayern won the first half. Tottenham could not do anything more as Bayern had a crazy attack line in the second half. German team scored five goals, and 4 of those were from one player – Gnabry.

Gnabry scored four goals in the second half, and he demolished Tottenham alone. Keep in mind that Robert Lewandowski also scored in the second half, and he had two goals after the match. Poland striker is just unstoppable as he is scoring in every game this season.

Tottenham’s coach was not happy with the results. North London club became the first English club in Champions League history that has lost with seven goals conceding. Experts believe that Mauricio Pochettino has lost the trust from club authorities and could be fired in the next few days.
