First thing I'll say is that Chelsea got a pretty good draw out of this. I like it.

Except having to travel to Russia in the winter. Hopefully the game in Russia will not be in December when the EPL schedule is packed. But that is what squad depth is for.

Guys,
What group do you think will be the hardest to predict who 2nd place will be?

Here are the groups I think will have a not straight forward 2nd place team,

Group B: Atletico Madrid, AC Milan, Porto are going to tough to predict.

Group D: Inter Milan and Shakhtar Donetsk I think is going down to the wire.

Groups B and F will probably be the most contested for the 2nd spot. Dare I say Atletico and Milan to advance? I don't think it's likely, but there is a chance that ManU doesn't make it.

A, D, E, H have obvious favorites, IMO.

C: Dortmund can create goals but will never get far with their leaky back door.

G doesn't really matter, although Lille and Sevilla can put up a fight on their best days.

Hala Madrid.

Looks like it changed this year I think. I don't remember who had it last year, but this year it is CBS. They have a contract deal through 2024.

  • TV Channels: CBS, CBS Sports Network-CBSSN (select matches only)
  • Spanish-language TV: Univision, TUDN, UniMas, Galavision (select matches only)
  • Streaming (English): Paramount+
  • Streaming (Spanish): TUDN.tv (authenticated users)

Apparently Paramount + used to be known as CBS All Access. I'm currently trying a 1 week free trial because it televised the USMNT game the other day against the Honduras. I didn't realize this channel will be the go-to channel for televising all of the Champions League games. Looks like I may stick with this and pay the $5/mo. fee as it seems worth it for Champions League coverage alone.

Excited that the games begin today. Pretty much need the aforementioned Paramount+ to watch though.

Just saw the score. I can't believe they can't hold out a game with 10 men. Teams that can hold on with 10 men have strong mid fields. *cough* Chelsea *cough*

LOL! I saw the closing minutes of the game and the Man U player Lingard really sh** the bed and gave that goal to them. Reminds me of when Jorginho(?) made a poor pass back to the keeper and the opponent made them pay. Luckily he has played much better since then.

Does Paramount+ have all the games today? So I could be able to switch between games as I pleased?

Yes, they televise every single game so that's why I'm planning to stick with it for a while. If you go to the Paramount+ app there is a list of games to select and watch live. I think they can be seen as a replay as well which is nice since most can't watch games live.

So yeah to answer your question you can switch between games as they're being played. Pretty cool.

They're televising the tape delayed game on CBS? Interesting.
