Champions League Matchday 5 Results

Champions League Matchday 5 Roundup: Chelsea vs. Barcelona

We expected a more balanced match between two teams capable of controlling games, but Chelsea delivered one of their most complete performances of the season while Barcelona unraveled under pressure. The visitors started by handing the hosts an advantage through an own goal in the 27th minute, a mistake that immediately altered the tempo of the match.

Barcelona’s night worsened just before halftime, when Ronald Araujo was sent off in the 44th minute, forcing his team to play the entire second half a man down. Chelsea took full command from that moment forward, striking again in the 55th and 73rd minutes to seal a dominant win.

Barcelona never found a response, struggled to retain possession, and paid heavily for their defensive mistakes. As a result, they dropped significantly in the standings, while Chelsea surged back into contention.

Result: Chelsea 3-0 Barcelona

The marquee fixture of Matchday 5 did not disappoint. Both teams entered with perfect records, but only one would leave with that status intact. Arsenal struck first in the 22nd minute, rewarding their aggressive start and dictating the pace early. Bayern, however, responded quickly with a 32nd-minute equalizer, keeping the score level as both sides battled for control.

Despite Bayern finishing with slightly more possession, it was Arsenal who demonstrated superior attacking efficiency. Their transitions remained sharp throughout the night, and as the second half progressed, the host elevated their tempo once again. A decisive goal arrived in the 69th minute, followed by another in the 77th, ultimately securing a statement victory.

With the win, Arsenal preserved their perfect run and cemented themselves as one of the most in-form sides of the tournament.

Inter to chase the match from that point on.

Inter eventually responded with a goal in the 54th minute, giving hope for a late comeback and creating a tense final stretch. However, Atletico’s resilience proved decisive. In stoppage time, Jose Maria Gimenez found a narrow opening and powered home a dramatic winning header in the 93rd minute, sealing a crucial victory.

PSG then took full control with goals in the 59th and 65th minutes, building a comfortable cushion as Tottenham struggled to regain stability.

Even when Tottenham pulled one back in the 72nd minute, PSG held firm. The host earned a penalty shortly after, which Vitinha converted to complete a brilliant hat trick. His three goals matched and surpassed Tottenham’s output, guiding PSG to an emphatic 5-3 win that returned them to the top of the group.
