I am following the Copenhagen - Galatasaray game. Damn it would be sensational for them if they manage to qualify for the round of 16. I have rarely seen a team fighting as hard as they did during the CL group stage.

Yep they qualified. Its ashamed that Manchester United finished 4th. I was expecting either Copenhagen or Galatasaray to qualify after Bayer Munich but I really wish that we won against Munich. Turn out we still sucks after all and thats it I guess for today, nothing really unexpected except for Union Berlin scoring two goals against Real Madrid. Heck even scoring 1 goal against Madrid would be pretty decent already for a team like Union Berlin

Although my picks for the first round are irrelevant, I went with 2 or more goals for Union Berlin because I thought Real Madrid would certainly take this game lightly and give some of their players a rest, but when I saw their line-up, it didn't look as if there are any weak (or weaker) Real Madrid players on the pitch. The biggest surprise was that he let Bellingham go the full distance. I was quite sure he would give him a rest, but Ancelotti seems to understand that there are players who lose more than they gain from not playing. It was a decent goodbye to the Champions League for Union Berlin.

Manchester United is wrecked. If that's how they go about a final game in the group stage, which could have saved them a spot in the Europa League at least, then really good night for all of them.
