6 out of the 8 UEFA Champions League 1st Leg Round of 16 matches have come to an end with only 2 more to take place later tonight. Bayern, AC Milan, Dortmund, Benfica, Napoli and Real Madrid has won their respective 1st legs and tonight we will see Manchester City take on RB Leipzig and Inter Milan go against FC Porto.
Last night during concurrent R16 ties, Napoli earned a 2-0 victory at Frankfurt and reigning champions Real Madrid hammered past 5 goals to beat Liverpool. A few records were set in this game. Firstly, Jurgen Klopp’s side conceded 5 goals for the first time in their UCL participation.
Liverpool had never conceded four goals in a European match at Anfield before.

And another was Vinicius Jr. scoring a brace last night to become the only player in Europe to find the back of the net 5 times against the Reds. However, the game began in favor of Liverpool as they took an early 2-0 advantage through Darwin Nunez’s creative finish and Mohammad Salah’s 14th minute goal.

One of the topics of troll is a reminiscence of Jurgen Klopp’s comments after last year’s UCL final loss at France, where he said Book the hotel for next year’s UCL final venue at Istanbul. The North-western region at Turkey is where Liverpool won their 5th UCL title in 2005.
This year, it is going to be difficult to reach Istanbul and only if they produce a 2nd Leg (16 March) comeback just like they did in 2019 against Barcelona. Below are the fan reactions from LIV Vs RMA :-
