1. Bayern are still torturing Bara. Stack 13 months after the scathing 8-2 inflicted in the quarterfinals of the 2019-2020 edition, Bayern sent FC Barcelona a new deuce by winning 3-0 at Camp Nou. Completely domineering, the Germans saw Ter-Stegen delay the luck against San, but Mller logically opened the scoring with a strike against (34th). Then the inevitable Lewandowski, the lookout for two shots returned by the post, transformed this success into humiliation by signing a double (56th, 85th). The two teams no longer box in the same category …

2. Lukaku free Chelsea. Prolific since its arrival this summer, the Belgian striker allowed the title holders to avoid the false start against Znith Saint-Petersburg (1-0). Dominators but lacking inspiration, Thomas Tuchel’s men have long displayed a disappointing face, until liberating head shot of their recruit on a cross from Azpilicueta (69th). The Blues then got hot on a point blank Dziouba rat but they provide the essential.

3. Dj regrets for Lille. Disappointing since the start of the season in Ligue 1, Lille has regained some bite and displayed a very interesting face at home against Wolfsburg. Despite many opportunities and 30 minutes spent in numerical superiority following the expulsion of Brooks, Jocelyn Gourvennec’s men have however never managed to find the fault (0-0). The fault a big Castels in the goal of the Wolves, but also the VAR which did not help them … To read the Dbrief and NOTES of the match, it’s here.

4. MU falls from between. Expected after their XXL recruitment, the Red Devils had to be overthrown in Switzerland by the Young Boys of Bern (1-2). Yet ideally launched by the opening of the score of the inevitable Ronaldo (13th) but then harmless and reduced ten after the expulsion of Wan-Bissaka (35th), the Mancunians have suffered more and more and Ngamaleu (66th) then Siebatcheu (90 + 5th) snatched the victory for the locals.

5. Juve comes back to life! Barely in Serie A (1 point after 3 days), the Old Lady took advantage of her first European trip to rediscover colors. Without forcing, Massimiliano Allegri’s men won 3-0 in Sweden against Malm. Sandro scored with a plunging head on a cross from Cuadrado (23rd). Then Morata got a penalty converted by Dybala (45th), before driving the point home (45th + 1)In the second half, the incoming Kean was notably refused a goal for offside before running into the opposing goalkeeper.

6. A history of Sville penalties. The Spaniards had to start with a draw at home against RB Salzburg (1-1). In a completely crazy first period,Andalusians conceded three penalties, but Adeyemi and Sucic missed two, with just an attempt converted by the Croatian (21st, sp). Just before the break, Rakitic (42nd, sp) equalized … on another penalty! In numerical inferiority thereafter with the expulsion of En-Nesyri, the Svillans had to be satisfied with this result.

7. Villarreal and Atalanta put on a show! Both clubs have offered a Spectacular draw and twists in Spain (2-2). Freuler (6th) quickly established the Italians’ advantage at the start of the match, but Trigueros equalized before the break (39th) and Groeneveld, who came into play, even thought of offering victory to the winner of the Europa League (73rd). It was without counting on Gosens who allowed the Dea to snatch a fairly logical draw (83rd)at the end of a meeting where the opportunities were from one camp to the other.

8. The Dynamo frustrated. Like the people of Lille, the Ukrainians, held in check by Benfica (0-0), may have regrets. In the last moments of a very pleasant match, the locals found the post, goal on a huge stop by Vlachodimos and especially saw the VAR cancel Shaparenko’s goal due to an offside position by Garmash. A bad operation for the two clubs which will then have to deal with Bayern and Bara …

9. Lille lead by the VAR. On two occasions, LOSC had a golden opportunity to materialize their domination against Wolfsburg (0-0), but VAR decidedly otherwise each time. First by refusing the goal scored by David back from the locker room since the ball was out in touch at the start of the action. Then by correcting the decision of Mr. Makkelie to award a free kick rather than a penalty at LOSC in the last moments of the game for an ugly tackle from Guilavogui on Onana. Frustrating, even if both decisions are justified …

10. Ronaldo. A record… and a wound! Taking advantage of a wonderful pass from his compatriot Fernandes, the Portuguese scored for his second game in a row with Manchester United and opened the scoring against Young Boys (1-2). Scorer for the 16th consecutive season in LdC, the five-time Ballon d’Or also equaled the Iker Casillas record by playing his 181st game in the competition. The evening had started in a funny way for CR7, which knocked out a flight attendant on a non-target strike when warming up! But the victim was able to recover from his emotions and she even had the right to a jersey given by the superstar.

11. Mller, executioner of Bara. Dj author of a double during the famous 8-2, the Bayern Munich striker opened the scoring again against the Blaugrana (3-0), with the complicity of Eric Garcia, who deflected his powerful strike. The German confirms that the Catalan club are doing better than anyone with 7 goals scored in 6 games against this opponent ! No one has done better on the European scene!

12. Lingard leads MU. Entered Ronaldo’s place in the 72nd minute of the game against Young Boys (1-2) for bring his legs according to his trainer Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, MU’s attacking midfielder especially brought his passing sense… but not in the expected sense since the Englishman offered the ball 2-1 to opposing striker Jordan Siebatcheu at the end of added time. The big fail of this first European evening …
