Arsenal welcomed Real Madrid in London and outclassed the 'queens' with 3:0. It can be said that the first half was rather boring and uninteresting, so all the events were seen in the second part of the game. The hero of all Arsenal fans these days is Declan Rice. The great midfielder, the first representative of England, scored two beautiful goals from free kicks in the 58th and 70th minutes to give his team a 2:0 lead. Five minutes after the second goal, Merino, assisted by Lewis-Skelly, put the ball into the small net with a beautiful volley and thus made the final score 3:0. Courtois couldn't really do much with any of the goals, and the whole Real team seemed rather exhausted and clueless. Real Madrid is one of the best attacking trios in the world, but they only had three shots on target in the first 90 minutes. At the very end of the match, the guests' agony was rounded off by Kamavinga, who earned an exclusion, due to the second yellow card, so I kicked myself out of the team for the return match. On the one hand, this is a huge advantage for Arteta's team, which has one foot in the semi-finals, and in the second leg they can tactic and save this advantage, but on the other hand, the top pitch and fans in Madrid can help Real to get an early lead, I am not powerless, but Carlo Ancelotti's team will have to in more than seven days.

A different kind of football was seen in Munich. Bayern had possession of the ball, especially in the second half, I created chances, but in the end Inter was happy. The team from the capital of fashion took the lead in the 38th minute with a goal by Lautaro Martinez, and with that score we went to halftime. In the second part of the game, the persistent attacks and chances of the hosts bore fruit in the 85th minute when Thomas Miller equalized and there was a big celebration for the home fans. But that joy lasted only three minutes, because Fratesi brought the guests a new lead, I made the final 3:1 in the 88th minute. Inter returns to Italy with a huge 2:1, I have a great opportunity to reach a new semi-final in front of its fans in the best European competition. Bayern, on the other hand, did not play that badly, luck was simply not on their side in this match, and numerous injuries certainly affected the changed squad, which at this moment was not good enough to make a better result in the first match. Vincent Kompany's team will have seven days to prepare for the rematch and try to strike back at Giuseppe Meazza, but it will be an extremely difficult and demanding job.

Barcelona hosted Borussia Dortmund and deservedly won with 4:0. Perhaps an unexpectedly high result, but completely realistic, was achieved by Barcelona and it can be said that they are definitely the first participants in the semi-finals, because it is hard to believe that Borussia can make up for this deficit in the second leg, even in front of more than 80,000 people at their Westphalia, but, in football, football started in an overall style. 25. The minute bore fruit. Kubarsi assisted Rafinha who placed the ball in the net for 1:0, with that score we went to halftime. At the very start of the second half, the home team doubled their lead. This time, Rafinja was in the role of assistant. He transferred the ball with his head to the second post where, again with his head, Lewandowski put it into the net for 2:0. The third goal, which came in the 66th minute, was again the work of an experienced Pole. This time, Fermin Lopez provided the assist, and Lewandowski made it 3:0. The hosts were not satisfied with this lead and continued their attacks, which brought another goal in the 77th minute. Rafinja registered the second assist, and the scorer was Lamin Jamal for the final 4:0. The great joy of the home fans could begin, and after this kind of game, everyone secretly expects the players to bring and "suck" the cup this season, they would say, with full right.

PSG hosted Aston Villa at Princeva Park in the first quarter-final match, and achieved a 3:1 triumph with a great game. The home team dominated the whole match, I created a lot of chances, they just played great football, which paid off in the end. But it didn't all start out great, because the visitors took a 1:0 lead with Tielmans' assist and Rogers' goal in the 35th minute. However, that goal seemed to tear the home players even more, who equalized after only four minutes. Desiree Due made a great breakthrough from the left side towards the middle and sent a shot from about 20 meters, which went just under the crossbar, and the visitors' goalkeeper Martinez just looked away. With that result, we went to halftime, and in the second part of the game, even stronger attacks by the home team followed. The new reinforcement of the "saints" Kvarackeli made a great breakthrough on the left side, entered the penalty proctor, made an exceptional dribble and sent a projectile under the bar of Martinez with his left foot for a lead of 2:1. Even after this goal, the home team continued to attack and scored another goal in stoppage time. Mendes, assisted by Dembele, increased the score to 3:1, and thus set the final result, which will mean a lot to them in the rematch. The advantage of two goals is not small at all, and we will see if Unai Emery's team will manage to consolidate and threaten this result in the second leg next week.
