On the Champions League stage this season, the major giants have presented fierce matchups, and Manchester City, Real Madrid and Paris have undoubtedly become the best of them. According to statistics, Manchester City have taken the top spot in this season's Champions League group stage with a whopping 132 shots so far, while Real Madrid and Paris are close behind with 120 and 110 shots respectively.
Manchester City's attacking firepower in the Champions League has been nothing short of terrifying, and they have shown great attacking power in the first two rounds of the group stage. In the face of young people, Manchester City was unrelenting, winning 3-1 away and continuing to maintain a winning record in the group stage. Haaland is even more in hot form, scoring two goals, becoming Manchester City's biggest killer in attack. Under Pep Guardiola's tutelage, Manchester City's attacking system has become more and more fluid, and the tacit cooperation between the players is also breathtaking.
Real Madrid, as a traditional giant in the Champions League, has remained strong this season. Although they were slightly inferior in the competition with Paris, Real Madrid's performance in the group stage was still remarkable. Messi's hat-trick shocked the entire football world with Barcelona's 4-0 home win over Manchester City. In addition, Neymar missed a penalty shoot-out but then scored a goal to show his attacking quality. Despite the dismissals of Bravo and Mathieu, and the departures of Jordi Alba, Gerard Pique and Zabaleta through injury, Real Madrid remain competitive in the Champions League.
Paris Saint-Germain, as a Ligue 1 giant, has been attracting attention in the Champions League in recent years. They have been equally impressive in attack this season, contributing 110 shots so far. Despite being a little inferior in direct conversations with Real Madrid, Paris' performances in other competitions have shown that they are still a formidable force in the Champions League.
