The Champions League returns on Tuesday to a very different European soccer scene than it was before a three-month mid-season break.
In the interim, Lionel Messi won his first World Cup title. Kylian Mbappé almost won his second, then got injured. Early-season favorites for the European title fell into slumps at home.
A rematch of the 2020 final won by Bayern pairs two powers that helped stop the Super League in 2021 by refusing to join it. What it won’t have at Parc des Princes are the goalscorer and goalkeeper with the best records from the group stage. When Messi won his fourth title with Barcelona in 2015 Barack Obama was president, Britain was in the European Union and Jose Mourinho won a league title, at Chelsea.
At least second-placed Madrid is so far clear of fifth in La Liga to be almost sure of qualifying for next season's Champions League. Chelsea plays a Dortmund team third in the Bundesliga, just three points behind Bayern, without yet seeming a convincing title challenger.Dortmund already has a great comeback story: Sébastien Haller’s return from a cancer diagnosis and chemotherapy treatment.
