Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 winner - Real Madrid!
It is when matches are concluded that people begin to understand how football works. That is why so many of us lose bets in soccer. Football is not a rocket science and people that understands it have rest of mind.
Football is nothing without history, undermine history at your own peril when it comes to football. Everyone knows the history of Real Madrid and Champions league finals and yet we chose to ignore it. We saw how Benzema was eliminating great contenders like PSG, Chelsea and Manchester City with hatrick and brace, yet we chose to overlook it. It was after the finals we began to realise ourselves

History does not matter if one team is a head stronger and wins the match, but once a strong team loses, all sorts of otherworldly forces immediately begin to remember. I do not dispute that this has a certain impact on the final result, but the fact that the opposing team does not have such a large number of titles and therefore has a much greater desire to tip the scales in its favor can have exactly the same effect. Therefore, the main factor is the real strength of the team and only then other factors such as history and desire to win the title.
