Celtic vs PSG Match in UEFA Champions League
09:45
Although the win is as easy as slicing bamboo at Ligue 1, PSG still needs to be tested in strength
in the UEFA Champions League. This
Tuesday PSG faces Celtic of Scotland, the team they once
beaten 4-0 total score 22 years ago in the ring.
Unai Emery is likely to come off the bench when Angel di
Maria is still in injury, leaving captain Thiago Silva unlucky. However, the
capital of France still has in hand the elite stars to be able to leave
Scotland with the first three points in the Champions League group this season.
These are Edinson Cavani, Adrien Rabiot, Thiago Motta,
Kylian Mbappe and especially Neymar superstar, who is yearning to show himself,
conquering Europe with PSG. And the
first challenge is Celtic. In two
encounters before, the PSG beat Celtic. But today, PSG's forces are superior to
Celtic. Therefore, they can completely conquer Celtic Park.
Despite impressive form last time, but Celtic won only 2 of
the last 6 times in the European Cup on home field matches (2 defeat, 2 draw).
So, before a dominant PSG, Celtic hard to achieve a good result.
PSG has an overwhelming performance in the Ligue 1. With the
large amount and quality of players it has, it is difficult not to win matches
and is expected not to be the exception on Tuesday against Celtic, for the
first date of the Champions League.

second half.
Zidane's men (Real
Madrid players) are all in perfect condition for the match except for a
Fabio Coentrao who is ruled out after not training in the pre-match session.
Instead, Pepe did exercise normally. Therefore, the Gallic must choose the
discards, one of the more complicated decisions that must take.
In front of Juventus
Massimiliano Allegri has also decided the eleven. The Italian coach will bet
for three central, giving freedom to Dani Alves and Alex Sandro. The particular
BBC of the Juve will act in the
center of the defense with Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini. The average will be
for Pjanic and Khedira. While Dybala will act as a hook and Higuain and
Mandzukic in the lead.
Real Madrid are
settled in Cardiff, the home of Gareth Bale, after parking certain doubts in
the group stage and having eliminated serious contenders like Bayern Munich
German and Atletico Madrid. The Madrid team, the most laureate of the
tournament with eleven titles, aspires to reissue its crown, something unheard
of since the format 'Champions' and to achieve a 'Twelfth' that gives a double

Barcelona receives in the Champions League Manchester
City Pep Guardiola, which will be his first big European game of the year, with
the top of Group C at stake.
Barça regained winning ways after thrashing Deportivo La
Coruna 4-0 in the league and Wednesday will be his second test height of the
season at the Camp Nou.
A month ago was the first visit to the league runner-up
in Europe, Atletico Madrid. At that meeting, Barça could only draw 1-1 and also
lost to Lionel Messi through injury.
With Messi recovered, Luis Enrique can count again with
his attacking trident, which complete Neymar and Luis Suarez, to measure the
City.
Guardiola already suffered when he led Bayern Munich and
crossed his exequipo in the semifinals of Champions League two seasons ago.
At that time, the German team thrashed Barcelona at the
Camp Nou 3-0, with two goals from Messi and Neymar another and, in the second
leg, Bayern won 3-2, both goals for the Catalans also took the signing of
Brazilian striker.
This will be the fifth time Barcelona and Manchester City

Celtic (3-3) in the second.
Four points that place two Barca unbeaten start in this
competition after thrashing at home to Celtic (7-0) and turn the game in
Mönchengladbach (1-2).
The good news for Guardiola is the captain, the Belgian
Vincent Kompany, played a few minutes in the draw with Everton and could be one
of the surprises in an eleven in which back Sergio Aguero, author of six goals
in his last three games Champions.
Luis Enrique, therefore, may align its eleventh gala in

Copa America Final: Argentina vs Chile
13:27
History repeats itself. Argentina and Chile played on
Sunday the final of the Copa America Centenario just a year after being the
faces in the final of the Cup in Chile, which ended with the victory of the
host.
The Metlife Stadium in East Rutherford, near New York,

have been deployed throughout the tournament.
On one side it is Argentina, the leading contender,
reaching his third final in the last three years with the imperative of lifting
a trophy ratify the hierarchy of a golden generation of players led by Lionel
Messi.
And on the other Chile, reigning monarch of South
American football, that after getting the first title in its history wants to
make clear that it has made their way into the world elite on merit appears.
Chile reaches the end devoid of self-imposed pressure
last year for hosting and the need to win the first continental tournament for
the country.
However, for the players themselves, a victory over
Argentina itself acquires an emotional value as it would show that the title of
2015 was not a mere coincidence rigged to local status.One of the best virtues
of the team is tenacious pressure exerted in all sectors of the field,
especially in the central area, which is strong Arturo Vidal, a player with
leadership, vision and a great physical display.
The front has quality and speed, with Eduardo Vargas with
marksmanship and Alexis Sanchez is playing a key in each of the victories of
the Red paper.Competition in Chile has gone from less to more, losing to
Argentina on his debut and then won with authority to Bolivia and Panama to
finish second in Group D.
In the quarterfinals, he struck Mexico an indelible
memory thrashing (7-0) and then, without Vidal, he knocked Colombia 2-0 with a
beginning of sweeping passing game without defensive troubles.
In the end, the team Pizzi comes with all the headlines
about and is the only casualty of Pedro Pablo Hernández, who replaced Vidal in
the semifinal and suffered a sprained knee.Marcelo Diaz, recovered from a
contracture, again strengthen the midfield, next to Vidal and Charles Aranguiz,
the trio will take care to avoid arriving balls Messi.
Champins League Semifinal Match - Real Madrid vs Man City
06:10
The time has come. Real Madrid begins to stake his
presence in the final of the Champions League, the presence in Milan. The last
obstacle to the final is Manchester City, the last survivor of the Premier
League. A Manchester City which also has in its grand illusion Champions, his
last illusion of the season. The first leg will be held at the Etihad, in
England, where they are all the best players of Real Madrid, who attend the
event course with Cristiano Ronaldo after recovering from his injury last week and
brushed the game against Rayo Vallecano last Saturday. Zidane himself has
confirmed the presence of Portuguese and Benzemá.
Real Madrid will therefore yet with Christian Bale Gareth
recovered and back in shape and after solving and mark in the last match of the
league. Zinedine Zidane's team, in any case, go with all your arsenal and must
translate on British turf, as the Merengues is clear favorite to win the tie.
But it is that even Real Madrid is favorite to to win
this first leg at home. Funny, but the classification of merengue team against
Wolfsburg, with comeback included, together with the elimination of Barcelona,
it has raised or appears to have raised madridistas possibilities facing the
knockout semifinals and final. For Tuesday's meeting, therefore, the Spanish
team is favorite to win, even if they play at home and a playing field at least
in the Champions League has proved hard to assault.
It has earned being the 12th player Lucas Vázquez, in
full scoring streak and always complying perfectly with its mandated in the
field tasks. Few think that could start in the Champions League semifinals and
has at your fingertips. In defense back Dani Carvajal, recovered from a blow,
and among the options for the center of defense everything points to a
commitment couple experience with Pepe as captain Sergio Ramos.
It will be the twenty-seventh semifinal of the Champions
League for Real Madrid that presents an even thirteen hits to the final and
thirteen attempts in vain balance. Six consecutive years in the desired
scenario, since regaining lost prestige with a curse round of six seasons,
although these last six attempts ended just one place in the final. The year of
the Tenth.
Meanwhile, Manchester City pisa for the first time in its
history the penultimate stage of the continental showpiece, facing the
momentous encounter in their best moment of the season after stringing seven
games without defeat and after regaining third place in the Premier League.
