I knew it! I was waiting for Roma to win and it did it!! After the first goal from Ajax I said ok maybe a draw but scoring 2 goals in Amsterdam is good. ManU added another goal as expected too. At the end a draw between Arsenal and Slavia will make things a little bit harder for Arsenal since Slavia will try in the worst scenario to keep the score 0-0 next..

as I said:


a great pity that I was not able to go to the bank to be able to withdraw money and be able to deposit on the site where I place bets, I would have made a good profit with these games. I did very badly to have withdrawn all my profit from the site and to have spent.

Ajax was playing a good match but too bad a blunder of the keeper and a missed penalty screwed their changes to get to the next round. Let's see if Ajax can play the same way the next match and then it can be still interesting.

Theophile has become a player that Dinamo must get rid of as soon as possible if they want to achieve something in Europe.
It seems to me that he has lost confidence since that game in the group stage of the Champions League against Shakhtar last year, when his stupid last-minute error prevented Dinamo from going through the group.
He made a big mistake against Tottenham in London and now again.
In matches like this all players have to be fully ready and concentrated to the maximum but that has not been the case for Theophile for a long time and he obviously can't cope with the pressure of big matches and he is Dinamo's biggest handicap.

Of course that's not nice of that boy but the reaction of Calafiori was way too much. Looks like he got hit by a train or something.

Sometimes soccer players are pussies. 

A very disappointing game from Arsenal, a lot of missed chances and opportunities from players. They were even lucky they got a draw. The coach has to do better with team selection and the players have to do better. Come the second leg in Prague, there will be no room for errors.

I do agree with that in general, I still do not think it was a penalty though. He is prone to silly mistakes, but so were Lauritsen (a few cheap possession giveaways in dangerous zones), Ristovski (few horrible 10n1 defendings) and Gvardiol (too slow to defend Chukwueze most of the match) yesterday.
Theophile's mistake was the one that was punished, other than that he had a decent enough game. The penalty really was a harsh call.

I am also very disappointed with Arsenal's performance being conceded in the 94th minute, Arsenal players should be able to concentrate more
until  the game ends. This is also a lesson for Mikel Arteta not to play Willian as a starter in important matches. I feel Willian's contribution is not
as good as when he played at Chelsea. I agree that in the second leg Arteta must replace some of the players with players who have better quality,
I recommend that Aubameyang and Pepe be starters. I still believe Arsenal can qualify for the next round.

The beauty of European competitions is the surprises that happens week in week out; and this is why the clubs must refrain and not let fifa or uefa launch any mega competition for top clubs. All clubs has got alot of work to do in the return leg. Manchester United has to win or draw at home to Granada; Arsenal needs an early away goal away at Prague to stand a chance to qualify to the next round. Ajax needs 2 away goals in Italy. Expect more quality performances in the return leg next week thursday

The controversy behind Fernandes' penalty for being violated by Eteki, in my opinion, MU deserves to win. MU controlled the game, they were superior to the players. Win 2-0 made MU a little calm to play in the second leg. Unfortunately Scott McTominay, Luke Shaw and Harry Maguire will miss the second leg. This is because they get a penalty for not being able to appear due to accumulated cards after receiving a yellow card in this match.

For the others I was a little surprised that Ajax lost to As Roma, I thought Ajax would win, but my guess was wrong.
