On November 7, Beijing time, the 22/23 season Champions League 1/8 final draw was held. In the end, Bayern won Paris! For Messi , where did it come from.
Paris finally swallowed the bitter fruit to win the second place in the group and met with the favorite Bayern. How to predict this game? From the star perspective, Bayern left Lewandowski , Paris retained Mbappe , it seems that Paris is stronger on paper, but it is absolutely impossible for the Champions League knockout arena to trust Paris too much, and Bayern obviously has the upper hand in team running-in and experience. This game is indeed like Mars hitting the earth, which is not a good sign for both sides.
Messi ushered in the opportunity to prove himself. Last season, Messi performed poorly in the match against Real Madrid , resulting in unfulfilled Paris bidding farewell to the Champions League early. This time, Messi ushered in another strong opponent, and Bayern, whom he was most afraid of. The nightmare of 2-8 has not yet dissipated, but now Messi is not , Barcelona behind him, but Paris. Paris' ambition is the Champions League champion. If Messi can pass Bayern with excellent performance, then his career in Paris will usher in a new situation.
However, if Messi cannot help Paris eliminate Bayern, then there will be more doubts about Messi. After all, Messi must prove his "King of Football" style in a strong dialogue. Of course, Messi can't think too much about Bayern now, because the World Cup is coming.
So, we want to say that in the next 4 months, Messi's historical status will determine! It is worth mentioning that the first leg of the 1/8 final will be held on February 14/15/21/22, 2023, and the second leg of the confrontation will be held on March 7/8/14/15.
