00:00
and we start in Europe in the premier competition for clubs in the world the champions league gave
00:07
us some amazing games in the round of 16 and that's why i'm here once again with my good
00:14
friends and trusted collaborators Nick C and El Chivamayor Julio Ramos guys let's talk about the
00:20
four games that we're gonna see in the upcoming weeks guys let's start about Arsenal versus Real
00:27
Arsenal moved on very convincingly after a 7-2 first leg and then a more balanced 2-2 draw on
00:36
the second one Real Madrid moved on clearly with the luck of the champion with everything playing
00:44
on their end and a heartbreak exit for Atlético de Madrid well guys talk to me do you guys feel
00:51
that Real Madrid will be able to pull through a very very complicated game against Arsenal
00:58
man I mean it's Real Madrid right they are the top of the top when it comes to champions league
01:03
they turn into a different team they struggle a lot against Atlético de Madrid we all knew this
01:08
you know Cholo Simeone's team they always give their best especially versus Real Madrid
01:13
if it wasn't for Courtois I think we would be talking about another surprise in the champions
01:18
but at the end of the day I think they are they're gonna be able to manage Arsenal it's
01:22
not gonna be easy uh but the fact that it's Real Madrid I think they're gonna advance
01:28
for sure Nick tell me as long as Vinny don't let Vinny take any more penalties
01:33
right that was a sad moment for Vinny I thought that he was behaving um a little bit on becoming
01:41
of a player at that stage being so disrespectful he laid the the uniform of Real Madrid he
01:47
continually taunted the the colchonero uh supporters Nick do you think this is a way to
01:55
move on in the competition this this uh braggadocio that has been a constant critique around Vinicius
02:02
sometimes it's helped him too it wasn't long ago that we were talking about that big banner that
02:06
was up where was that who were they playing against when the fans put up that giant banner
02:11
taunting Vinny and he came through and he just made quick work of the other side what squad was
02:17
that we were just talking about this a few weeks ago that was the previous round where the Manchester
02:23
City fans were you know letting letting Vinicius know that he should stop crying for not getting
02:29
the ballon d'or that went to Rodri uh and he quickly silenced them see Vinny's one of those
02:35
okay look some players can talk trash others can't some can stand up for themselves in some
02:40
situations some have less let's say kudos to do so but Vinny's one of those players that
02:44
okay I was poking fun he missed a penalty who what amazing player hasn't missed a penalty right
02:49
if anyone if anyone can talk crap uh if anyone could talk smack it's uh it's Vinny so look he's
02:55
an amazing player all around he's gonna be his own man at the end of the day all the great players
03:00
have had their own uh their own uh personas let's say and if we go back in history the Maradona's
03:06
and everybody in the past the amazing players what Vinny's doing is nothing compared to other
03:12
amazing players and their their big attitudes I think that it's important that the game continues
03:16
to have this flavor to it you know the disrespect is part of the game and if you lose you have to
03:22
take it right like if you are willing to play at that level you are also willing to take the hit
03:27
but we have to move on to the next game Bayern Munich versus Intel the Milan Bayern Munich is a
03:33
machine they prove that no matter who's in front of them even if it's a great team that hasn't
03:39
you know beat them in their home turf for the last three times they figure out a way to make
03:44
it happen uh you know we have a forward in that team that is doing things that very few have done
03:51
Harry Kane uh Nick what are your predictions do you think the Nesasuri are going to have what it
03:57
takes to stop the German machine? Si, penso che si ragazzi Inter Milano ultimi italiani in the
04:07
torneo they're holding it down for the Italians there's no other Italians in the in the championships
04:12
in the final uh where we at the final eight now things are moving fast sorry um AC Milan the
04:17
Giants who have traditionally done so great in this tournament it's all on the net the
04:22
Nero Azzurri and I I feel like they're gonna just they're gonna do great look Kane obviously
04:27
unstoppable but Inter's got this great momentum behind them and they play with a certain passion
04:31
and I think it's amazing they got Thorum you know scoring amazing goals if they can keep that up
04:35
I could see this being a great matchup but Inter Milano taking over. Chiba we saw Lautaro he did
04:42
an amazing job but do you think Bayern will have the discipline and the resilience to stop this
04:49
very very offensive version of the Inter? Lautaro is an amazing player but if there's something that
04:56
Bayern has is a discipline to stop anybody right like defensively they do pretty good and then Kane
05:02
wants to win something you know they're hungry they know this is the opportunity Liverpool is
05:06
gone everybody thought they were gonna be in the final and Real Madrid is struggling which to me
05:12
are like the two main teams to win the Champions League now one is gone and they see the opportunity
05:18
in front of them so I think Bayern Munich is gonna do whatever it takes to to advance and
05:23
and make it to the final. Barcelona versus Borussia Dortmund. Barcelona wants to come back
05:30
to the glory days of European soccer they want to have control in the pitch but they're gonna
05:36
face a Dortmund that enjoys chaos that they move at a speed that is hard to keep up with. Nick do
05:43
you think the yellow wall will be enough to stop the likes of Lewandowski, Yamin Jamal and the
05:53
unstoppable the top scorer of the championship Rafinha? No no and no I mean Jamal is clearly
06:04
showing that he is amongst the best players in the world by far the best young man in the world
06:09
playing this game at just 17 years old we saw the kind of goals that he's been scoring these days
06:12
they're absolute bangers I don't think they're gonna be able to stop them this is a team that
06:16
struggled against Lille I mean I don't see them being able to stop that that that sort of synergy
06:24
between Pedri, Rafinha and Jamal I just I don't see it. Chiba these teams have faced each other
06:30
six times Barcelona won two four ended up in draw not a clear dominance do you foresee an
06:38
upset because I think everybody's with Barcelona they're the clear favorite but Dortmund is not a
06:43
team that you should be sleeping on tell me do you think there's an upset in the horizon? Not in
06:48
this round not for Barcelona I think Barcelona are playing so good Rafinha is just you know amazing
06:54
and you guys already mentioned all the rest of the players not versus Borussia Dortmund I think
06:58
you know unfortunately for them they're gonna be eliminated.
