On Wednesday, 9 September, the main round of the Champions League, which last season was won for the second consecutive time by French side PSG, continued with six more matches in the 1-th round. Champions League. 1-th round 9 September (Wednesday) Barcelona (Spain) — Feyenoord (Netherlands) — 5:1 (Raphinha, 3, 57, Adeyemi, 22, Yamal, 77, Jesus, 85 — Stein, 82). Ruthless Barcelona, for the fourth time this season (in 5 matches), slammed 5 goals past an opponent. This time the victim was Feyenoord, coached by Champions League winner with… Barcelona Giovanni van Bronckhorst, and it was struck by the new team captain Lamine Yamal (goal plus two assists). Liverpool (England) — Atlético (Spain) — 2:1 (Soboslai, 40, McAllister, 50 — Llorente, 17). The accurate strike of Liverpool’s nemesis Marcos Llorente (5 of his 10 Champions League goals he scored against the Beatles’ countrymen, and all at Anfield) was not even enough for the Madrid visitors to salvage a draw this time. Napoli (Italy) — Arsenal (England) — 0:1 (Ødegaard, 75). PSG (France) — Slovan (Slovakia) — 6:1 (Dembélé, 17, 22, Torres, 31, 47, 57, Ruís, 87 — Kamara, 51). The defending champions PSG, with Ukrainian Illia Zabarnyi in the starting lineup and officiated by a Ukrainian refereeing team led by Mykola Balakin, demolished the strongest Slovak club at the Parc des Princes. A brace from Ousmane Dembélé, a hat-trick from ex-Barcelona player Ferran Torres, and a goal from Fabián Ruís thoroughly disappointed Slovan. Stuttgart (Germany) — Viking (Norway) — 3:1 (Demirović, 20, 26, 32 — Tripić, 22). The win for Stuttgart over the tournament debutants was delivered by Bosnian Ermedin Demirović’s hat-trick, completed in 12 minutes. However, there have been faster performances in the competition’s history. For example, in 2022 Mohamed Salah of Liverpool scored three goals against Rangers in 6 minutes and 12 seconds (the fastest Champions League hat-trick). Sporting (Portugal) — Galatasaray (Turkey) — 3:1 (Catamo, 22, Suárez, 57, from the penalty spot, Salasar, 63 — Inácio, 5, own goal). On Thursday, 10 September, in the Champions League will play: PSV Eindhoven — Shakhtar, Fenerbahçe (Turkey) — Roma (Italy), Bayern (Germany) — Bodø/Glimt (Norway), Como (Italy) — Leipzig (Germany), Manchester United (England) — Sabah (Azerbaijan), Slavia (Czech Republic) — Lens (France).

The top 8 clubs from the main stage advance directly to the 1/8 final, while places from 9-th to 24-th will contest playoff matches to reach the knockout stage.
