Yeah… Nights like this we crave. Games like we
saw, we want to ever see. Goals as they went in,
we want even more. Football, Football, Football
knows how to win our hearts.

1. Hmmm… we are happy Chelsea didn’t fall the
third time in a row. How they go 2 goals up, only
to come down 3-2. Ah… we cried for Chelsea
already. Good they came back to draw, maybe
Morata brought the luck, but Hazard is the man.
His form ever lifts Chelsea. That equalizer was
great, but we loved David Luiz’ goal moreeee.
Stalemate, but nice game, still leaders in the
group.

2. LOL… Mourinho reacted and gave us attacking
Football, and Man United players looked sharper.
It was interesting, only that Benfica were so
determined to win some points having got nothing
in the previous 2 Champions League games. Well,
there was Rashford, the boy that will not fail to
surprise. Who saw his dribble that had the
defender fall flat on the ground? His free-kick
goal made the difference. Maybe due to the
inexperience of the youngest Champions League
goalkeeper, but Rashford deserves every credit.

3. We thought Barcelona would take us to
heaven, but PSG did. PSG started so early with
young Mbappe. It was more like the keeper
thought it was too early, or wasn’t expecting it,
when Mbappe stroke the ball through his legs.
Other members of the MCN and Di Maria wrapped
it up. 12 goals from 3 games in the Champions
League, 3 wins, conceded nothing, against the
likes of Bayern, Celtic and recently Anderlecht. We
won’t lie, we enjoyed it, especially as there would
have been more. Great game, great play.
.

4. But we don’t take anything from Barcelona.
They even did more to play with a man down for
a long period of time, add 2 goals to their own
goal favour. Messi is just a witch. His free-kick
goal lifted the team, Digne got the third, before
Olympiacos could get a consolation. 3 out of 3,
impressive.
.
.
.
5. Yeah… this is really a new dawn for Bayern
with Jupp. We loved this one too. It would have
been more too. Their first goal was ruled out but
they didn’t feel it, only press on to score more.
Great, this is why we watch football. It’s not just
the sports, but how the sports affects us. Goals
came from Muller, Kimmick and Hummels.

6. Like Real Madrid yesterday, Juventus scored all
the goals of the game, only that they won
tonight. Pjanic and Mandzukic ensured it.
Sporting tried their best, threatened when they
could, but Juve wouldn’t want to fall again. Great
team strength.
.

7. Atletico Madrid started the day with a draw
and we had a bad feeling going into today. Just
when Mbappe opened the day, we loved it from
then. Then everyone one responded.
.
.
.
In the end, it wasn’t a bad day. There were 23
goals in all 8 games, 8 short of what we had
yesterday, but it seemed the thrill was better
today [Wink]. Loving Football has it’s rewards.
We don’t regret it any moment. We thank
Football.
