00:00Let's kick it off with Real Madrid 5-2 win over Borussia Dortmund.
00:07Los Blancos were down 2-0 at the halftime and then boom, Vini Junior goes off with a
00:12second-half hat-trick that turned the game on its head.
00:15What a performance.
00:16What a performance.
00:17Vini was on fire.
00:18His second goal, even more beautiful, a 60-yard solo run.
00:22Are you kidding me?
00:23It was pure brilliance.
00:25Dortmund couldn't handle them, especially in the last 30 minutes.
00:28Vini is now the favourite for the Ballon d'Or.
00:30You can see why.
00:31Madrid, now looking comfortable in their group.
00:33They're more comfortable than your grandma's cat sitting on your grandma's TV set taking
00:37a nap.
00:38Without a doubt, Nick.
00:39And speaking of magic moments, Christian Pulisic scoring an Olimpico goal.
00:44That's right, straight from the corner in Milan's 3-1 win over Club Brugge.
00:48Nick, that was something else.
00:50You don't see those every day.
00:51Pulisic's goal really set the tone.
00:52Honestly, it is.
00:53It's rare to see an Olimpico, period.
00:55But in that fashion, oh my God, Milan needed this win after a shaky start to their Champions
01:00League campaign.
01:01Pulisic, delivering in a big way, as he's been doing lately.
01:03So surprised, but not shocked.
01:05No, probably the best player in CONCACAF right now.
01:08And what about Aston Villa?
01:09The Cinderella story just keeps getting better and better.
01:12Villa's 2-0 win against Bologna sees them top of the table.
01:16And to talk more about that, we got Francisco Iquique Rivera straight from Portland.
01:20Francisco, take it away.
01:21The first team to make it 3-4-3 in this new format, Aston Villa.
01:27How about a team that was relegated only eight years ago?
01:30Back in 2016, they lasted three seasons in the championship.
01:33They were able to come back.
01:35And then, you know, their progress has been impressive.
01:37Only two seasons ago, they were ranked 14th.
01:41And then last year, they moved up to fourth.
01:43Only below Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, and ahead of teams like Tottenham Hotspur,
01:48Newcastle United, Chelsea, Manchester United.
01:51The team they have right now is very compact, obviously.
01:53The two highlights are on goal, Divul Martínez.
01:55And up front, John Duran, the attacker, who has been amazing.
01:58He scored a goal against Bologna.
02:00Aston Villa is now fourth in the English Premier League.
02:03And then again, they're undefeated 3-4-3 in the UEFA Champions League, having a chance
02:07to do it once again.
02:09Back to you guys in the studio.
02:10But let's not forget, Aston Villa could be a force to reckon in this UEFA Champions League.
02:15Muchísimas gracias, Francisco.
02:17Que te la pases bien.
02:18Que esté emocionante el partido.
02:19Aston Villa, keeping the dream alive now.
02:21Let's talk about the rest of the games in this matchday number three.
02:25Nick, what are your highlights?
02:26Oof, what are my highlights?
02:27Where do I start?
02:28Well, Juve, they took a tough loss, unfortunately, a 1-0 loss to Stuttgart, conceding late in
02:32stoppage time.
02:33That must have hurt.
02:34They've been struggling defensively lately.
02:37And tonight, unfortunately for them, no different.
02:40Bilal Toure with a decisive goal for Stuttgart, though.
02:43So they're happy.
02:44Juventus are now in trouble in this group moving forward.
02:45They've got to be careful.
02:47PSG with another underwhelming performance, a 1-1 draw against PSV and Dijon.
02:52Dembele missed two seeders and PSG looked all over the place.
02:55Nick, they're going to need to figure things out fast.
02:58Exactly.
02:59Very fast.
03:00PSG's only got four points from the last three games, so that's not looking good for them.
03:03And still, they have to face big teams, Atletico Madrid, Bayern, which we're going to talk
03:07about later.
03:08So it's not looking good for them right now.
03:10They got to step it up.
03:11They got to get serious.
03:12Another big result was Sporting Lisbon.
03:14Their big win.
03:15Their 2-0 win, I should say, over Stromgraz.
03:18Viktor Gjokeres scoring again, showing that he is incredible this season.
03:21He's in great form.
03:23Sporting, quietly making their mark here.
03:25And one of the most exciting games in Matchday 3, Nick, Barcelona against Bayern Munich.
03:30Un partidazo.
03:31Oh my God.
03:32Yeah, Marce, this one had everything.
03:34For years, Bayern Munich was Barcelona's worst nightmare.
03:37Their bestia negra.
03:38But here they are.
03:39Five straight beatdowns in the Champions League had left Barcelona reeling, but not
03:43this time.
03:44Barcelona came out swinging.
03:45They pulled out a 4-1 statement win.
03:47Statement win indeed.
03:48Absolutely.
03:49And the resurgence we're seeing from Barcelona right now is a big deal.
03:52This wasn't just a win.
03:53It was a message to Europe elite, Nick, that Barca is back.
