CSKA Moscow showed how great and tragic group stages can be

CSKA Moscow’s 3-0 victory over Real Madrid on the last day of the Champions League group stage could have been legendary, but fate had another plan.

Around the 80th minute of Wednesday’ game between Real Madrid and CSKA Moscow, the commentator* on the world feed was going over once again the conditions that had to be met for CSKA to get to the Europa League.

*Damn the UEFA website for mentioning everything from minute-to-minute tactics to the dryness of the field, but not the names of the people working their games.

The Russian team was tied with Viktoria Plzen on points for third place going into the last game of the Champions League group stage, but because CSKA had lost to Plzen, they needed to better whatever result Plzen got in their game with Roma. A Plzen loss or draw would keep CSKA alive, but a Plzen win would make any CSKA result against Real Madrid inconsequential.

By that 80th minute, CSKA were improbably up 3-0 on Real Madrid. They had beaten the tournament’s reigning champions 1-0 in their first match, too, so not only would CSKA be responsible for the worst home defeat that Real Madrid had ever suffered in Europe, but they would have managed to keep them scoreless in two games.

But by that the 80th minute, the commentator didn’t seem in any mood to celebrate. He sounded sad, juxtaposing what CSKA were doing with the fact that Plzen were beating Roma, 2-1.

CSKA’s victory was the cliché “smash-and-grab” victory. Real Madrid dominated most of the first half, and the game as a whole, but after the Spanish club missed a few early chances, including a shot that hit the post, CSKA scored two quick goals in less than seven minutes through Fedor Chalov and Georgi Shchennikov. At that point, the Plzen and Roma were still scoreless, and CSKA were on the verge of doing what seemed impossible at the beginning of the game.

The drama of the last day of Champions League games comes from teams having something to play for — whether that’s the two big teams in each group vying for a top spot, or, in the case of CSKA, a lesser-regarded team trying to salvage third place out of an otherwise disappointing campaign. Sometimes teams are playing only for pride, to go out with a bang. They often throw caution to the wind, which sets the stage for some incredible soccer.

Tragedy creeps in situations like CSKA’s, a team that had all or nothing to gain and incomplete control of its fate. It’s the best kind of tragedy precisely because all CSKA can do is what they did, which is to beat Real Madrid for the second time, a heroic task in itself, and then wait and hope that the universe is kind to them.

Just as quickly as CSKA’s hopes were raised after going up 2-0 against Real Madrid, they were crushed when Plzen scored against Roma. They were restored when Roma equalized in the 68th minute, but then, in the same minute that CSKA scored their third, Plzen scored their second. The rest of the game had the double tension of CSKA trying to manage their own game, and praying that Roma would score again.

CSKA were in that sympathetic position because of how they had played against Real Madrid, that even a usually objective commentator felt bad for them.

Unfortunately, just as CSKA were on the verge of writing a great story on the last day, so were Plzen, and only one of those teams could have a happy ending. In order for one team to be a story of triumph, the other had to be a tragedy. What was bad for CSKA was great for Plzen, and if I was watching the Plzen game instead, my emotions would have reasonably flipped in their favor.

The tragedies of the last day of Champions League games are good examples of how quickly fortunes can change in the sport. In the minute when CSKA scored their third goal and Plzen scored their second, CSKA went from what would have been a famous victory over Real Madrid to finishing last in their group and having nothing tangible to show for the effort. The finality of that last game created the conditions for utter heartbreak that only the last day of tournament soccer can provide.”

Champions League: What Marcelo said after Real Madrid’s 3-0 defeat to CSK Moscow

Real Madrid vice-captain, Marcelo has spoken up on his side’s 3-0 defeat by CSK Moscow in the Champions League played on Wednesday night.

Three goals from Fyodor Chalov, Georgi Shchennikov and Arnor Sigurdsson ensured the Russian side defeated the Champions League holders at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Marcelo, however, said Los Blancos’ defeat by Moscow was not an ‘attitude problem’.

“I don’t think it’s an attitude problem,” Marcelo was quoted by Goal as saying at post-match.

“We never take to the pitch with the wrong attitude but perhaps some of our play may have been interpreted like that against CSKA.

“You always have to play with desire at Real Madrid. There’s a long time until the last 16, we must improve and change the image we’ve given of ourselves. We have to be motivated and flying high at the Bernabeu.”

Marcelo added: “We always want to win and give a good account of ourselves but sadly we weren’t able to do that. We had several chances in the first half, we had so many shots on goal, but they had three and scored three goals and they deserve the win.

“We have to keep working hard. Every game is different, you play one way, with one team-mate or another and these defeats happen in football.”

Marcelo will hope to lead Real Madrid to victory when they tackle Rayo Vallecano on Saturday in the La Liga fixture.

Kekalahan Real Madrid, Nodai Rekor Vinicius di Liga Champions

Kekalahan Real Madrid, Nodai Rekor Vinicius di Liga Champions : Pemain muda Real Madrid, Vinicius, mencatatkan rekor gemilang saat tampil melaan CSKA Moskow di Santiago Bernabeu, Kamis (13/12/2018) dini hari WIB. Pemain asal Brasil ini mampu mengikuti jejak dua legenda Los Blancos, Raul Gonzales dan Iker Casillas.

Vinicius dimainkan sejak menit pertama oleh Santiago Solari saat bersua CSKA pada matchday keenam Liga Champions, dini hari tadi. Pemuda asal Brasil itu bahkan bermain selama 90 menit walau gagal menghindarkan timnya dari kekalahan.

Berdasarkan data Opta, Vinicius berusia 18 tahun 152 hari saat diturunkan sebagai starter. Catatan itu membuatnya sejajar dengan dengan Raul dan Casillas.

Raul dipercaya tampil sebagai starter di Liga Champions saat usianya 18 tahun 77 hari. Sedangkan Casillas menorehkan catatan serupa saat berusia 18 tahun 117 hari.

Vinicius mulai mendapatkan kepercayaan bermain bersama tim utama Real Madrid setelah kedatangan Santiago Solari. Sejauh ini, ia sudah bermain dalam delapan laga, mencetak dua gol, dan memberikan empat assist di semua kompetisi.

Sayang, rekor Vinicius tidak sempurna. Sebab Real Madrid menyerah 0-3 dari CSKA Moskow lewat gol Fyodor Chalov (37'), Georgi Shchennikov (43'), dan Arnor Sirgurosson (73').

Meski demikian, Real Madrid tetap lolos ke babak 16 besar Liga Champions 2018/19. Real Madrid tetap kokoh di puncak klasemen dengan 12 poin, disusul AS Roma di posisi kedua.

Basle 1-0 Manchester Utd: Basle faulty for Jose Mourinho

New Post has been published on http://usnewsaggregator.com/basle-1-0-manchester-utd-basle-faulty-for-jose-mourinho/

Basle 1-0 Manchester Utd: Basle faulty for Jose Mourinho

When all the excitement had died down and everyone put their calculators away, the damage to Manchester United’s hopes of Champions League progress wasn’t that bad after all.

A late Basle winner at St Jakob-Park on Wednesday night changed the complexion of this match and the picture in Group A.

Enough for United to miss out on the knockout stage after surrendering their 100 per cent record? Hardly. They still only need a point to qualify as group winners and will fancy their chances of getting it on December 5 at home to a CSKA Moscow side already well beaten 4-1 in Russia.

Basle won the game when Michael Lang tapped home at the far post from a low cross to stun Manchester United

The result means United must wait until the final match day to reach the knockouts when a draw against CSKA Moscow will do

Lang celebrates his goal, which was a just reward after Basle forced United deeper and deeper in the second half

MATCH FACTS, MATCH ZONE AND GROUP A TABLE

Basle (3-4-3): Vaclik; Akanji, Suchy, Balanta; Lang, Serey Die (Fransson 80), Zuffi, Petretta; Steffen, Oberlin, Elyounoussi

Subs not used: Salvi, Ajeti, Riveros, Manzambi, Itten, Bua

Goal: Lang 89 

Manchester United (4-2-3-1): Romero; Darmian, Smalling, Marcos Rojo, Blind; Ander Herrera, Fellaini; Lingard (Rashford 63), Pogba (Matic 66), Martial (Ibrahimovic 74); Lukaku

Subs not used: Pereira, Lindelof, Shaw, McTominay

Booking: Darmian 84 

Basle undid the Manchester United defence in the 89th minute with an excellent passing move finished by Michael Lang. For more stats and facts visit our exclusive MATCH ZONE service by clickinghere.

  The bottom line is that Moscow must win by more than six goals at Old Trafford — United haven’t lost at home in 38 games — so don’t expect Jose Mourinho to be losing sleep anytime soon.

What will perplex the United manager far more is how his team contrived to lose this match.

‘Strange game,’ mused Mourinho afterwards. ‘I think we play a match like this 10 times and nine we win comfortably. The one was now.’

Defeat in Switzerland wasn’t in the script. Nor was it on the cards after a United side showing seven changes from the weekend bossed the opening 45 minutes and hit the woodwork twice.

This was not a night when Mourinho parked the bus and got caught out. But the second half was a very different affair. United hardly had a shot on goal as Basle sensed their opportunity.

Manchester United almost took the lead after 11 minutes when Marouane Fellaini’s header was cleared off the line

Fellaini headed the ball down and seemingly goalwards, only for Manuel Akanji to somehow scoop the ball away over the bar

In a first half of few chances, Paul Pogba scooped a free kick over the crossbar from just outside the Basle penalty area

EARLIER IN GROUP A 

CSKA Moscow moved closer to a spot in the Champions League last 16 with a 2-0 win over Benfica on Wednesday.

Georgy Shchennikov gave CSKA an early lead, before an own goal from Jardel ensured Benfica – now eliminated – slipped to their fifth defeat in five Champions League games.

For CSKA goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev, it marked the end of an 11-year wait for a shutout in the Champions League proper. 

Mourinho was forced to replace the dominant Paul Pogba in the 66th minute in only his second game back since suffering a hamstring injury in the 3-0 win over Basle at Old Trafford in September. The introduction of Nemanja Matic and Zlatan Ibrahimovic did not have the desired effect.

It came as no surprise whatsoever when the plucky Swiss snatched victory in the 89th minute.

Marcos Rojo, who impressed on his comeback from a torn cruciate ligament just four days after Ibrahimovic made his return from the same injury, committed a foul on the halfway line.

Still there appeared to be little threat to a United side seeing out the few remaining minutes for the draw they needed to go through.

However, the free-kick found its way to the impressive Renato Steffen, who danced past two United players and switched play to the left where Raoul Petretta was charging upfield on the overlap.

Petretta’s cross to the far post cut out three defenders and reached Michael Lang, who had lost Daley Blind and turned the ball into an empty net.

Basle’s Geoffroy Serey Die trips Ander Herrera, leading to the free kick which Pogba wasted from the edge of the area

Die protests his innocence to an unmoved referee Daniele Orsato, however Basle survived as they defended stoutly

United’s best first half chance came when Fellaini was not able to get enough on Antony Martial’s cross, hitting the post

‘Daley was blaming himself, but it’s totally unfair,’ said Mourinho. ‘I refuse that situation because we are a team and in the first half we should be winning five or six-nil.

‘That was not Daley’s fault, for sure, so we put ourselves in this position.’

Mourinho had a point. United opened up their opponents as early as the 12th minute when the pace on Pogba’s pass in to Romelu Lukaku enabled the Belgian to spin away from Eder Balanta as he charged into the box.

If anything, Lukaku was guilty of holding on to the ball for too long, allowing goalkeeper Tomas Vaclik to rush off his line and block.

The loose ball was played to Blind, who crossed to Marouane Fellaini and his goalbound header was cleared off the line by Manuel Akanji. It was one of three headers from Fellaini that could have given United a first-half lead.

When Blind swung in a freekick after Matteo Darmian had been fouled, he flashed an effort wide of the near post.

Then, just before half-time, a more subtle attempt from Anthony Martial’s cross saw the ball brush off that mop of black hair and against the outside of the post.

Rojo also hit the woodwork during a brief United flurry before the interval when his long-range effort took a deflection off Marek Suchy and rattled the bar.

Martial raced clear of two defenders and tried to finish from a tight angle but was denied by Vaclik at his near post. At one point, the scoreboard flashed up 3-1 to United. They would have deserved it, but had to be satisfied with a goalless first half. That all changed, however.

No sooner had Lukaku headed wide from an excellent cross from Martial than Basle began to find space and opportunities in front of goal.

Basle goalkeeper Tomas Vaclik palms away one of several crosses put into the home box as United piled on the pressure

Blind had struggled with the pace of Lang and Mohamed Elyounoussi in the first half and now it was Steffen’s turn to torment the static United left back.

United goalkeeper Sergio Romero had to get down quickly to his left and Steffen then cut inside Blind before curling a shot past the far post.

Lang headed against the bar from a difficult angle in the 67th minute and Basle then had a penalty appeal turned down by Italian referee Daniele Orsato for Rojo’s challenge on Steffen.

There was nothing wrong with the timing of the Argentine’s tackle on Oberlin soon after, however, as he slid in to make a brilliant block on the Basle No 19’s shot.

But it was Rojo’s foul that indirectly led to Basle’s late winner as St-Jakob Park erupted.

Their team had repeated their 1-0 win over Mourinho’s Chelsea in 2013 and a famous 2-1 victory over United two years earlier.

That result proved fatal to Sir Alex Ferguson’s hopes of reaching the knockout stage, but this setback is unlikely to be quite so damaging.
