Everyone wants the Champions League’s trophy, but only one team in Europe will be crowned best team in 2025. Only eight teams are left in the Quarter Finals – Real Madrid Vs Arsenal, Paris-Saint-Germain Vs Aston Villa, FC Barcelona Vs Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Munich Vs Inter Milan – and every single team has shown that they deserved that spot to be able to compete for the infamous trophy.

Each and every single match up is going to be very interesting to watch. Each team has showcased amazing talent at the 2025 Champions League!

Out of all these teams, Real Madrid seems to have the best chance to win the Champions League  because of the amount of talent they have surrounding the team. When you have players like Vini Jr, and the new addition of Mbappe’s crazy talent, which really boost’s Real Madrid to a higher level.

Players like Rodrygo, Endrick, and Brahim are all reliable players to finish the game in an upset if the star players are not performing up to par.. On midfield and defense, players like Bellingham and Rudiger are very helpful towards the success of the team.

The New York Times gives a brief explanation on Madrid’s 3  star players who work together to score incredible goals: “Vinicius Jr and Mbappe like to combine down the left side of the pitch, with Jude Bellingham adding an extra layer of threat with his intelligent runs from deep.” This is a great example on how Vini and Mbappe are able to position themselves so Bellingham is able to perform his incredible deep runs.

If Madrid doesn’t perform the right plays and show their ability to score outstanding goals, then Barcelona could be a threat. They have a better chance at beating Madrid than any other team because have players like Lamine Yamal, Raphina and Lewandoski, all being valuable players in Barca’s offense that really help them excel in the tournament.

The New York Times discusses the way Lamine Yamal is able to uplift his team so Barca is able to pull off incredible plays: “With Lamine Yamal fit and firing, too, the goalscoring knack of Lewandowski at the top of the team is often what turns promising performances into results. It was his instinctive finish that turned the game on Saturday, bringing down a fizzed pass with his chest before sliding a reversed finish into the corner. Without that flash of inspiration, his side would likely be down in third.”

They certainly know what they are talking about because Yamal is definitely able to score when he has the chance to show his crazy skills on the field, seeming unstoppable for people to guard.

If it’s not Madrid or Barca winning the Champions League, it has to be PSG, the unexpected performance from them so far has shown they are capable of being a team that can win the Champions League this year.

It was definitely an eye opener for Brest going against PSG losing 3-0, then an outstanding 7-0! which really shocked teams, that game was PSG’s form of saying they are a team people should look out for.

Ousmane Dembele has had a great impact on PSG performance so far this Champions League. He has 7 goals in the Champions League and 21 goals in the French League 1, only this year!!!

This clearly shows how good Dembele has been for this team and how much he is certainly able to provide for such a team. He is certainly an outstanding player! PSG has a great chance against Aston Villa if every single player performs the way they did against Brest. Aston is still a really good team, and part of the reason why they are in the Quarterfinals still competing for the grand trophy!

Bayern vs Intern: A game that most soccer fans would certainly want to watch. Both teams have shown immense talent and both have a great chance at preventing Barcelona from going to the Finals and battling for the trophy.

One Football gives a prediction on how their match up will end and who will come up on top to go against Barcelona or Dortmund in the Semi Finals:“With Inter having nothing to lose, we expect them to take a more courageous approach than was the case at Meazza last month when they attempted just two shots on target. Bayern found their visit to Lombardia a stroll, unleashing as many as 21 shots, including 11 on target, and it’s hard to imagine them changing the attitude at home. So we back the Germans to reach an unprecedented milestone by capturing all three points, though it’s reasonable to expect Inter to at least trouble the scoresheet.” “ 3-1 Bayern”

I agree with this prediction because Bayern certainly has exceptional talent. One player who stands out from his talented team is Jamal Musiala. He is an incredible dribbler who has  made getting past defenders look easy.

Over at the Bayern Website, they explicitly mention the amazing talent and dribbling skills that Jamal Musiala has showcased for Bayern Munich: “You don’t have to be an expert to realize that Musiala is one of the best dribblers in world football thanks to his incredibly tight ball control and spectacular balance. The fact that he can so easily and playfully outwit his opponents is astonishing, because Musiala is actually quite tall at 1.84 metres. Outstanding dribblers are often small; a low centre of gravity helps them to get away from their opponents. What’s more, we tend to find them in wide positions. Only really greats like Lionel Messi or Neymar feel at home in the densely populated centre, where Musiala is best at working his magic.”

Bayern is correct – The German is certainly one of the best dribblers in the world who has made a gracious impact on the Bayern offensive, which shows the immense talent that is at the German club.

With all that being said, each team ultimately has amazing talent, and they all have a great chance at winning it all, but I think Real Madrid is just too good offensively and defensively, which makes this team unbeatable.
