Benfica-Fenerbahçe was a big game and I expected nothing less than a competitive match between the pair. Pre game Benfica have recorded two wins and two draws in four and Fenerbahce have not won so it was an easier bet to pick Benfica over Fenerbahçe and boy was I right Cheesy

To add that Benfica hardly loses when they play at home, they had played against Fenerbahce in the friendly game in which Benfica played at home and won, so it was expected that Benfica would win that game, Turkish teams have not done well in European competitions, it is not only Fenerbahce that is in this situation, Galatasaray will also be eliminated early in the Champions League and the saddest thing is that Fenerbahce has a good squad and a good coach, but even so it has had a poor performance in European competitions



It was a very bad night for Ranger fans



In the first leg, they lost and conceded 3 goals. But at least they managed to score 1 goal, which gave them some hope for the second leg. Unfortunately, in the 5th minute, they conceded the first goal, and the situation worsened in the 8th minute when they were reduced to 10 players. They could no longer reverse the result of the first leg.
I don't know why it's always like that for the Turkish team. Is it that they don't have the experience of playing with other European clubs or they lack the quality to match with them. I know that Galatasaray might not reach the round of 16, because they started well last season but couldn't scale through in the group stage and got their ass kicked out in the playoffs.

In football, you will discover that as some were celebrating, the opposite may applies to others, playing football is now what we can fully have confidence that a club most surely wins except we see the way they have been performing as the match began, while if not at the end of the match, we can't be sure of we are right or wrong about our assumption on a team in playing, all we only see is the result, whereby one wins against the other.
