00:00and we start in Europe in the premier competition for clubs in the world the champions league gave

00:07us some amazing games in the round of 16 and that's why i'm here once again with my good

00:14friends and trusted collaborators Nick C and El Chivamayor Julio Ramos guys let's talk about the

00:20four games that we're gonna see in the upcoming weeks guys let's start about Arsenal versus Real

00:27Arsenal moved on very convincingly after a 7-2 first leg and then a more balanced 2-2 draw on

00:36the second one Real Madrid moved on clearly with the luck of the champion with everything playing

00:44on their end and a heartbreak exit for Atlético de Madrid well guys talk to me do you guys feel

00:51that Real Madrid will be able to pull through a very very complicated game against Arsenal

00:58man I mean it's Real Madrid right they are the top of the top when it comes to champions league

01:03they turn into a different team they struggle a lot against Atlético de Madrid we all knew this

01:08you know Cholo Simeone's team they always give their best especially versus Real Madrid

01:13if it wasn't for Courtois I think we would be talking about another surprise in the champions

01:18but at the end of the day I think they are they're gonna be able to manage Arsenal it's

01:22not gonna be easy uh but the fact that it's Real Madrid I think they're gonna advance

01:28for sure Nick tell me as long as Vinny don't let Vinny take any more penalties

01:33right that was a sad moment for Vinny I thought that he was behaving um a little bit on becoming

01:41of a player at that stage being so disrespectful he laid the the uniform of Real Madrid he

01:47continually taunted the the colchonero uh supporters Nick do you think this is a way to

01:55move on in the competition this this uh braggadocio that has been a constant critique around Vinicius

02:02sometimes it's helped him too it wasn't long ago that we were talking about that big banner that

02:06was up where was that who were they playing against when the fans put up that giant banner

02:11taunting Vinny and he came through and he just made quick work of the other side what squad was

02:17that we were just talking about this a few weeks ago that was the previous round where the Manchester

02:23City fans were you know letting letting Vinicius know that he should stop crying for not getting

02:29the ballon d'or that went to Rodri uh and he quickly silenced them see Vinny's one of those

02:35okay look some players can talk trash others can't some can stand up for themselves in some

02:40situations some have less let's say kudos to do so but Vinny's one of those players that

02:44okay I was poking fun he missed a penalty who what amazing player hasn't missed a penalty right

02:49if anyone if anyone can talk crap uh if anyone could talk smack it's uh it's Vinny so look he's

02:55an amazing player all around he's gonna be his own man at the end of the day all the great players

03:00have had their own uh their own uh personas let's say and if we go back in history the Maradona's

03:06and everybody in the past the amazing players what Vinny's doing is nothing compared to other

03:12amazing players and their their big attitudes I think that it's important that the game continues

03:16to have this flavor to it you know the disrespect is part of the game and if you lose you have to

03:22take it right like if you are willing to play at that level you are also willing to take the hit

03:27but we have to move on to the next game Bayern Munich versus Intel the Milan Bayern Munich is a

03:33machine they prove that no matter who's in front of them even if it's a great team that hasn't

03:39you know beat them in their home turf for the last three times they figure out a way to make

03:44it happen uh you know we have a forward in that team that is doing things that very few have done

03:51Harry Kane uh Nick what are your predictions do you think the Nesasuri are going to have what it

03:57takes to stop the German machine? Si, penso che si ragazzi Inter Milano ultimi italiani in the

04:07torneo they're holding it down for the Italians there's no other Italians in the in the championships

04:12in the final uh where we at the final eight now things are moving fast sorry um AC Milan the

04:17Giants who have traditionally done so great in this tournament it's all on the net the

04:22Nero Azzurri and I I feel like they're gonna just they're gonna do great look Kane obviously

04:27unstoppable but Inter's got this great momentum behind them and they play with a certain passion

04:31and I think it's amazing they got Thorum you know scoring amazing goals if they can keep that up

04:35I could see this being a great matchup but Inter Milano taking over. Chiba we saw Lautaro he did

04:42an amazing job but do you think Bayern will have the discipline and the resilience to stop this

04:49very very offensive version of the Inter? Lautaro is an amazing player but if there's something that

04:56Bayern has is a discipline to stop anybody right like defensively they do pretty good and then Kane

05:02wants to win something you know they're hungry they know this is the opportunity Liverpool is

05:06gone everybody thought they were gonna be in the final and Real Madrid is struggling which to me

05:12are like the two main teams to win the Champions League now one is gone and they see the opportunity

05:18in front of them so I think Bayern Munich is gonna do whatever it takes to to advance and

05:23and make it to the final. Barcelona versus Borussia Dortmund. Barcelona wants to come back

05:30to the glory days of European soccer they want to have control in the pitch but they're gonna

05:36face a Dortmund that enjoys chaos that they move at a speed that is hard to keep up with. Nick do

05:43you think the yellow wall will be enough to stop the likes of Lewandowski, Yamin Jamal and the

05:53unstoppable the top scorer of the championship Rafinha? No no and no I mean Jamal is clearly

06:04showing that he is amongst the best players in the world by far the best young man in the world

06:09playing this game at just 17 years old we saw the kind of goals that he's been scoring these days

06:12they're absolute bangers I don't think they're gonna be able to stop them this is a team that

06:16struggled against Lille I mean I don't see them being able to stop that that that sort of synergy

06:24between Pedri, Rafinha and Jamal I just I don't see it. Chiba these teams have faced each other

06:30six times Barcelona won two four ended up in draw not a clear dominance do you foresee an

06:38upset because I think everybody's with Barcelona they're the clear favorite but Dortmund is not a

06:43team that you should be sleeping on tell me do you think there's an upset in the horizon? Not in

06:48this round not for Barcelona I think Barcelona are playing so good Rafinha is just you know amazing

06:54and you guys already mentioned all the rest of the players not versus Borussia Dortmund I think

06:58you know unfortunately for them they're gonna be eliminated.
