Who watched the game last night? WHAT. A. GOAL!!!! Possibly the best goal I've seen all season, superb control and picked his spot perfectly.

Giroud? What are you talking about? NOOOOO, RAPHINHA of course!

Let's take a look at the highlights, shall we? Courtesy of LUTV

Anyway, that other match which was on last night finished 0-1 with Giroud getting a flukey overhead kick in. Surprisingly, only two people got Giroud and no-one got the result. Full details at the end, but for now, let's have a look at today's game...

@nathen007's Prediction

Atalanta is fairly new to Champions League football and has done very well to get this far albeit without setting the world alight. They currently lie 5th in Serie A and again, are getting by without doing anything spectacular but they do seem to score a few goals.....
As for Real, Zidane is wheeling out the injury excuses and suggesting they will be playing a very understrength team tonight but sit 2nd in the table, leading a chasing pack who all have great recent form chasing down a stuttering Atletico. I don't know what to make of Zidane's comments but I will suggest that Real still have too much for the Italians.

Prediction: Atalanta 1 : 3 Real Madrid - First Goalscorer: Hazard (if he plays!)

BONUS INTERESTING FACT

Leeds play in all-white as a tribute to Real Madrid. Back in the 60s, Don Revie came to rebuild the team and decided on an all-white strip as he wanted them to play with the same flair as Real did back then in their all-white strip.

Simply write the name of the FIRST GOALSCORER and the CORRECT SCORE as a comment. The competition closes 5 minutes before kick-off which is 20.00 GMT.

The Small Print
In the first goalscorer competition, own goals do not count. In the correct score competition, it's the score after 90mins. Extra time and penalties do not count and the pot for each competition will roll-over if there is no winner. If more than one person chooses the same first goalscorer or correct score, the prize is shared and everyone gets a little upvote! It seems I also need to add, one entry per person. Don't forget the new rule that only people with a rep of 45 or above are eligible to enter unless they have been approved. The bonus will be added to any winnings ONLY if Leeds United win and/or Man U lose and all payouts will never exceed 50% of post payout. Other bonuses paid out at my discretion.

And the winners were...

Step forward @scarykangaroo and @chrisparis who both hit Giroud as the first goalscorer. They take home a not too shabby 3500+500 tokens each. Well done guys.

Sort:  

I was going to say that Real Madrid will Win by 2 goals to 1, but seeing your prediction, I just feel I should subscribe into it, so.....

Atlanta 1 : 3 Real Madrid

For the first goal scorer I'll go for Benzema

The match will be a 0:2, RM to win and Benzema will have to score the first goal

Hello mate, how are you doing? Congrats on your team winning but I feel my team won the most important of the matches. .

Glad to win you once more 🤣🤣🤣🤣. It feels great mate. Have a nice day. Oh. I forgot,

Benzema to score first

Real Madrid to win 2-1

LOL....I know you're loving this!! haha...I was sure Chelsea were going to get stuffed last night and I would come here gloating, but no!!
The most important thing was that we won 3-0 and Meslier becomes the only under 21 year-old in Premier LEague history to keep 8 clean sheets in a season..and many more to come ;-)

HE deserves IT. FOR A TEAM WHO ONLY ATTACK, THAT'S A HUGE ACHIEVEMENT

Congratulations to all yesterday's winners.

I just knew Leedsunited will take the score and they indeed did amazingly well.

For today, I see Real Madrid win 2-1 Atlanta by Benzema. I hope my prediction works this time around.

I just knew Leedsunited will take the score and they indeed did amazingly well.

Lols... That's funny though.

I will go with Benzema to score 1-2 RM to win :)

Thanks for the prizes.

Ronaldo isn't playing for Madrid anymore. He's currently in juventus. maybe you'll like to change your first scorer

Atalanta 0-2 Real Madrid
"Ramos"

Posted using Dapplr

Atalanta 1- 3 Real Madrid Kroos 1st goal

Zapata first goal. Atalanta wins 2-0.

Atalanta 1 : 1 Real Madrid
Karim Benzema for first goal.

Roberto Carlos

2 - 1

I love it when someone comes along and refuses to follow the crowd! I really hope you're right!

Roberto Carlos

That would be a twist of events :D

Was lucky he scored, he should have scored in the first half when he was alone from the center of the pitch xP
Anyhow congratz on that win and Bamford is such a good player imho.

Real have to win here 0-1 and Benzema will score

First scorer Benzema
Atalanta 1 - 2 Real Madrid

Thanks Giroud 😘

Well since my prediction seems to be lously as h*ll right now, I'm gonna try the opposite.
Go Atalanta!

2-0 win and Ilicic scores 2!

Tonight's going to cost me big time! We have a full range of scores for both sides!

Haha it's not easy being a bookie here ^^

It's certainly not lol......I seriously need a 0:0
