 Earlier on Tuesday matchday three of the UEFA Champions League took place with eight matches in an early kickoff on Sports Max 2 last season's beaten finalists Inter Milan hosted the Austrian team FC Salzburg and we have those highlights. Alexis Satchez was first onto it and finished it with real confidence. It's a lovely ball. It's Lautaro Martinez. Dumfries, speeding pass. Andrea Solma, Augusto. Shymich took it down well. Is there something at the end of this? All stemmed from a fantastic ball forward. The composure by Shymich and then the awareness to lay that off by Kiergaard. For Glauke, he was in a better position running onto it. Hitted so, so sweet. Astoni. It's a lovely ball. Claims for a penalty. Alexis Satchez plays on and the referee has pointed to the spot. Sandwich between Gorda Duat and Pavlovich. Chalhanoglu, precision and composure and that is the result. Inter back ahead. Damian, a lovely bit of play, suspicion of offside but such a fantastic bit of play there from Fratesi to roll away, make the space and deliver an inch perfect cross. That's going to be chalked off, offside. Oh he's conned for it. It's bounced wide and it goes. Oh Pavlovich pulled up for a foul and it is full time. And it is a win for Inter. Far from plain sailing. Yes, so the victory there for Inter Milan and getting a good victory that they had to fight for. Penalty from the Turkish midfielder, Hakan Kalhanoglu handing the Inter team the 2-1 win from the penalty spot over FC Salzburg. This after Alexis Satchez's 19th minute strike had given the lead to the Inter team before Oscar Glauke equalized for Salzburg. Former TNT International, now football correspondent Brent Sancho joins us. Brent, let's review what happened today and let's start with this match. I saw Alexis Sanchez in his advancing years do a good job for Chile in the South American qualifier last week and he was pretty steady today as well. Rolling back the hands of father time, isn't he, Alexis Sanchez? Look, very much an unexpected signing from Inter Milan as you know he's on a loan coming back to Milan. And he done the business today. It was basically a routine performance by Inter Milan, a routine result. They didn't have some moments of scare from this RB Salzburg team. But all in all, Lance, I thought it was fairly comfortable. They had chances at the end of the day to extend the result even further. Of course, one of them was being chalked off for offside but it's the type of attacking fluidity you want to see from Inter Milan team and certainly Alexis Sanchez played his part today. Yeah, and undefeated from their three matches so far but sharing the top of the table on points with Real Sociedad who also won today as well, your thoughts and how comfortable they are in the group? Yeah, I think this result in particular, I've put them in the driver's seat. Of course, the other team in third place, I think about three points or four points behind, I should say. So you would suggest it's quite comfortable, Lance, in terms of where they are. They still some important, you know, you have to be even careful. You're on the halfway stage here in this competition and of course they still points to play for but to judge from what we've seen so far, I do think Inter Milan can go on and of course come out of the group. But I think that was the goal that was set for Inter Milan coming into this one. It's not necessarily one of the more difficult groups for Inter Milan but it was extremely important for them to come out of this group and I think they will do that. Yeah, as a Juventus fan Brent, I know you pay close attention to the Serie A and Inter's form and performances in recent years. Are there by any stretch of the imagination a team that can sustain this kind of form deep into the championship? Yeah, there's certainly been improvement. Is it the type of improvement that we saw from the Inter Milan's of previous time? No, it's not necessarily on that level there but there is an upward trajectory which most Inter Milan fans will be happy about. They certainly do have the pedigree and quality within the squad to make a run. I just don't think they have enough in their tank to go all the way. And albeit it's not necessarily because of the way that they play but I think more so the teams that I expect to be in and around the business end of Champions League. It's a lot better than what they have. Better put together squads than they have. But all in all I think still what we've seen from this Inter Milan team is an upward movement and I think most Inter Milan fans will be happy with that. Yeah, we're tested in the second half when the score was 1-1 Brent and you did suggest that there were opportunities for them offensively to have a more emphatic victory in this encounter. Is that something you think would bother the coaching staff? No, not necessarily. They've been fairly solid throughout this season. Even last season if you remember in the Champions League final as well they were quite solid defensively until they were locked by Manchester City. But they've defended a lot better and I think they've gotten better in the way that they defend. I think in this particular game they did show signs of wobbling here and there and they did give up one or two opportunities. But I think you can consider it lands a bit of a one-off and then you have to give a bit of credit as well to Salzburg because they did throw numbers forward and played in the front foot and had a better second half. So it's not necessarily something to be overly concerned about. But I said, as I said, I think once you get deeper in the competition and they meet genuine quality within the teams that I expect to be there and no disrespect to Salzburg, I think that's when the concern would come in. And that's why I suggest that although I do think they'll have a decent run in the competition, I don't necessarily think they'll go all the way. Okay, well let's move on to our Group B where the goners of Arsenal still smarting from their matchday two defeat to Lanz, journeyed to Spain to take on Sevilla and we have those highlights as well. And Arsenal survive, it's cleared away by Gabrielle and now the chance to counter perhaps here's Gabrielle Martinelli right at the end of the first half. Martinelli for Arsenal who have the lead right on the stroke of half time as the action went from one end of the field to the other. Okay, great play by Gabrielle Jezus in feeding it through but still a lot to do. But he just took it around Neal and with ease and guided the ball home. Picking out Gabrielle Jezus. He's looked sharp tonight. And Jezus scores number two right on cue. Look where he is though when he receives the ball here, Jezus just cuts inside and how about that for a finish? Just ten minutes on the first matchday against Lanz, he'll get over half an hour this evening as the deflection comes off Tommy Yassou for a corner. Arsenal fans will know all about Erik Lamella and it comes from Rakitic. Oh, the header is a superb one and they are right back in the game. Just look at this as Nemanja Gudel on the edge of the six yard box, powers the header home. It's his third goal of the season and it's a really big one. Picks out the young full back now up against Leandro Trossard and it comes. Oh, David Ryder! Still time for late drama. Over it comes Neal and the goalkeeper had come up for it. The shot comes in, it's blocked on the edge of the box. Time running short here for Sevilla. Here's the campus, that was the chance. And he's skewed it wider the post and Arsenal are probably there now. It's the last effort of the match, the last opportunity for Sevilla to salvage a point and they couldn't quite take it. But they pushed Arsenal all the way to the line in this game on a damp night in Sevilla. Michaela Tete's team get over the line but they were really made to work for it in the second half. Yeah, good three points there for the Gunners, the Gambras did it for them, Martinelli and Gessous and getting a result that would satisfy their fans because it wasn't a particularly easy game, Mariah and Ricardo. Yeah, not an easy game at all and remember going into every Arsenal match is the discussion about David Ryder being in goal and a lot of people are feeling that he's still not up to par yet, he's getting the opportunity. So for me Arsenal went out there, they did what they had to do, happy to see Gabriel Gessous, a former Manchester City man getting among the goals, I'm happy for him. I love looking at Gabriel Gessous and Arsenal just doing what they need to do to get the points. Yeah, and interestingly Gabriel Gessous setting up Martinelli for the first goal, the first time that two Brazilians have been involved in a goal for Arsenal in the Champions League, so a big moment that. And this would be a good win for Arsenal because for a lot of their English Premier League game on Saturday against Chelsea they struggled and it was only in the last 20 minutes or so after they got the arrow from Sanchez that they really pushed and got that draw. So this was an important win, especially because they had lost their last at UEFA Champions League encounter and it was important for them to get back on track. Brent Sancho is still with us. Brent, how did you see this one and this performance from the Gunners? Well, I think they were like an old Western, the good, the bad and the ugly you saw from Arsenal today. The good obviously being Gabriel Gessous and how important is he when you looked at the time that he got injured last season by Arsenal when they were top the table and of course what happened afterwards, I think they sorely missed him and they missed that sort of performance from Gabriel Gessous game in game out and as we know injury seemed to be one of the issues for the Brazilian but once he's fit and healthy he is such an important person for this Arsenal team and of course the bad is how frail this Arsenal team is. How many times we've talked about the fact that when the going gets tough Arsenal gets going. They just seemingly cannot stand up to any sort of pressure. They bottled it of course against Manchester City and when they come up against teams like we saw against Chelsea that are playing on the front for them making things difficult for them, they go hiding in some parts and I think for me the ugly is rare. There's no way anyone could convince me that rare is a better goalkeeper than Ramsdale and I'm not sure what Arteta is thinking by bringing in rare and even worse making him start ahead of Ramsdale. Yeah just to make the point though that as it relates to the last two matches Ramsdale I gather is a way for the birth of his child so probably would have been unavailable for the last two matches in any case but I take the point Brent. He's not going to play him. Whether he's there or not there he hasn't played. It's just like what he's done with Harwoods. Arteta has dug his heels in and decided that rare is a better goalkeeper and as I said we've seen the type of mistakes he's brought in because he's good with his feet rare. He's made a lot of mistakes even in that department and I just don't understand why Arteta is still of course refusing to give Ramsdale his opportunity. Yeah I want to touch a bit on Sevilla Brent because a new coach Diego Alonso and still you know sort of challenging Arsenal today. Yeah and I expected that. The new manager of course coming into Sevilla of course they look at a lot more organised and again took the game to Arsenal particularly when that first goal scored for them. They were really Arsenal hanging on for their life and Sevilla really should have at least gotten a point from this fixture the way they played. They were very fluid in what they did. They had runners breaking lines and they were very much the team in the ascendancy and they were very very unfortunate not to come out with a point because they certainly deserved something from that fixture. Yeah but just going back to the Arsenal criticism that you just leveled their Brent because they gave up ball possession in this game 55% to 45% but they had far more attacks, far more dangerous attacks as well as far as the statistics show and I would like to flip the coin to suggest that it was an afternoon that the typical Arsenal may have fallen and they didn't so I think I would more give them credit for the result they got today. But they're not far away from the typical Arsenal are they really? They still show signs of that and this is a team that many believe should be challenging for the EPL title but I just feel that in terms of depth there's no depth there in the squad you think again go back to this Gabriel Jesus if he's not playing to his best you just wonder how Arsenal is going to score goals where it's going to come from and again of course the older guard has been missing the last two or three games not the best of performances from from him and I think overall speaking I go back to what I always say about Arsenal the leadership that is lacking in that squad I just feel like when and you're right maybe yes they would have lost in the past but at the same point in time they buckled today they were buckling they were bending they just didn't break you would like to see an Arsenal team that in those sorts of situation take command of the game take the thing of the game manage the game correctly because they are looked at as one of those teams that should be challenging at the EPL level and certainly should be challenging in the Champions League. Well I think the key words that you just used their Brent was that they didn't break and I think that is important for an Arsenal fan because they gave up so much of the game today but still were able to get the goals to win the match so I would defer from you and suggest that while it may have not looked fluent for Arsenal they had enough heart to get the win. Let's move on now to Group C though where the Portuguese side Braga came up against the mighty Real Madrid heading into today's game Real had posted two wins from their opening two matches and here's a look back at that game. It blows his whistle and off we go in the first half Real Madrid defending the goal away to your left hand side the ball of smoke from the flares that's over the top of set up we've got a chance here for Real Madrid to do something but it's his junior with the turn looking for Rodrigo and Real Madrid are ahead a quarter of an hour gone and the goal droughts finishes for Rodrigo might have had a helping hand on the way in but it's Real Madrid only. It just gets caught and he has to check his stride but look how quick he is. Looks to pull it back plenty of Real Madrid black shirts in there left by Rodrigo because he thought it was going to be a goal kick so it's up with the corner kick all the way through and just deflected at the far post and an arm was ratting. Probably their most controlled sustained period of possession. Short from range that was dipping a little bit too late. Great awareness and by Vinicius Junior parried away by Matus Lima. It's a fabulous touch he does that extra one touch he might even have been offside very tight. That little touch to come inside and open the goal up is superb. Trying to bend it into the far corner he's really unlucky decent strike. Back to the gears to take on Frank Garcia. He's done really well. Deceptive nearly caught Kepa out. Vinicius Junior almost getting away again down that left hand side. Frank Garcia delivering a wonderful ball out to him. This was the chance at the other end of Cross coming into the area and Kepa misreading it. Come up in the side surely. Vinicius Junior tucked in by Rodrigo and Braga looked to the flag which again went up. That's a decent ball here and a chance wide from Alvaro Charlotte. Van Gogh here allowed to run. Statue West then Braga good pull down by Bellingham. What a lovely piece of control by Bellingham. Control and shot in one. Picked out brilliantly by Frank Garcia on that left hand side. The first touch is superb and it sets him for the shot. He's so quick to get it away. Camo Vinga to his right foot will have a go at goal. Good goalkeeping by Matias in that Braga net. Cut the good saves, doesn't he? Rodrigo flag is stayed down for the minute. Too long for Vinicius Junior. Looking to see where the support is. Bellingham now arriving and he's in a bit of space and he's found. And Bellingham plants it into the back of the net on the out. Camo Vinga releases Vinicius Junior. I don't think Serda's going to catch him this time. Went across the defender brilliantly and steers it home excellently. It's a classic Real Madrid breakaway goal that's not going to count because he went too early again. One second. Real Madrid have done it. But they've had to work very hard. Having taken the lead through Rodrigo after a quarter of an hour. Jude Bellingham got the decisive goal in the end, stroking it in magnificently. Charlo pulled one back almost immediately for the home side. But it's Real Madrid who holds on and take a real grip of the group now. Another opportunity here for Brent Sancho to talk about Jude Bellingham. High quality. The left footed strike that was tipped over by the goalkeeper was just impressive the way he got that shot off so quickly and put himself in the position to get the shot off quickly. And then the goal was he just passed the ball into the goal. He didn't really kick the ball. He just passed the ball into the goal. So Brent, another big game from Bellingham, good result for Real Madrid and Vinicius Junior impactful as well with two assists. Before I try to create some new adjectives to describe Bellingham, I have to give, of course, Braga a lot of credit for the win. They took this game to Real Madrid. It certainly wasn't your normal form-guide type of game. Braga certainly showed up for this one. The likes of Cavalli and El Mostari, Moserati in the middle for Braga was outstanding. Charlo up front, Banzer as well. Banzer, sorry, up front as well for Braga. Outstanding. They stretched the team. Of course they played with a lot of width with their full backs coming forward. All in all, of course, Braga certainly came to the party and gave Real Madrid as much as they got. So much so that Real Madrid had to settle and play in transition and trying to play on the counter. So it was an outstanding performance by Braga and you have to give them credit for it. But again, brilliant Bellingham taking control of the football game. A cool finish of a player that, of course, seems to be playing for Real Madrid for years and years. And you have to give him all the plaudits and what he does as well. And I think we saw that today. He's been able to supply to the likes of Vinny Jr. and Rodrigo in the type of way I really haven't seen before. He's, of course, punctuated their football games and brought them in because he's playing such a deep line forward that gives them the opportunity to utilize the gifts that they have. Bellingham have been outstanding, but more importantly, he's making his teammates around him even better. Yeah, you touched on Vinny Jr. there. He had a goal. It was ruled out for offside and assisted as well. Good to see him back and, of course, doing his best for his team. Yeah, he's a vital player. There's no bones about it for Real Madrid. What he brings, of course, with no Benzema at the football club now, he would obviously have the goal scoring task on his shoulder squarely along with Bellingham and Rodrigo. But what Vinny Jr. provides is not just skill and trickery. He's also a very clever player, of course, making those runs in behind, blessed with a lot of pace. And it's a danger. It's a danger throughout. He comes inside. He can play outside. And he knows exactly when to and when not to. And because he's back and he's playing the way he's playing in Madrid, a better team. Yeah, Brent, I know that Sportsmax app would allow you to watch all eight matches today. I'm not sure how much of the Man United Copenhagen match you would have taken in, but an emotional day at Old Trafford today and Man U giving their fans the result they wanted. Yeah, certainly an emotional match. Of course, coming in at the heels of the passing of a great one. But, you know, it really, for me, if you put that aside, to see Manchester United celebrating a victory over the Copenhagen and Old Trafford, it was really mind-boggling. And it just shows you where this club has fallen to. I'm happy that Terry Maguire got on the score sheet. And, of course, André Onanna made the save. At the end, two players have been heavily criticised. And I've always said on this programme that Manchester United problems is not Maguire, it's not André Onanna, it's bigger than that. It's the football club. And I think at the end of the day, a club that's fallen that badly to be celebrating the win at home against Copenhagen. And, of course, a goalkeeper that had to save them at the end and save their blushes and keep them in this Champions League group is really a sad thing to see. Yeah, a big save there from Onanna. So, as we said, an emotional day for Man United just days after the passing of the great Sir Bobby Charlton. Brett, we're going to leave it there. Of course, UEFA Champions League matches continue midweek on Wednesday, Sportsmax and Sportsmax 2 with live coverage. We'll talk to you again soon. All right, guys, have a great one.
