Villa has already won both of its opening two Champions League matches as a result of the unexpected outcome.
While Bayern has been dealt a reality check following an overwhelming 9-2 triumph over Dinamo Zagreb two weeks prior.
It may be too soon to declare that the recently redesigned Champions League is not as good as it once was.
But this was a timely reminder that the competition can still produce drama and upsets, especially after some of the biggest names in it.
Like Manchester City, Barcelona, and Borussia Dortmund, scored freely the night before.
Against Lille, Los Blancos “did not deserve to win.”

Les Dogues, who had already lost twice in Ligue 1 this season and were knocked out 2-0 by Sporting CP in their initial Champions League match, managed to pull off an incredible triumph.
“found it difficult to engage in the game and win the battles,” Real boss Carlo Ancelotti remarked.
“We might’ve drew the game and we had chances in the end, but we didn’t deserve to win. We must gain knowledge and understand where we need to grow, such as from our most recent defeat. I do not believe it to be very challenging.
Liverpool’s impressive performance keeps up.
Less unexpected was Liverpool’s 2-0 triumph over Bologna, their second success of the campaign against Italian teams following their 3-1 victory over AC Milan in Matchweek 1.
After Bologna’s early chance was disallowed for offside, Alexis Mac Allister gave Liverpool the lead two minutes later with his first goal of the year, tapping in Salah’s dangerous cross into the box.

Was the game’s high point, though.
As a result, Salah became the first player in club history to score in five consecutive Champions League home games.
Conversely, Arne Slot made history as the first manager of Liverpool to win eight of his nine games in charge across all competitions.
After the game, Slot told reporters, “It was not an easy one.
But that is usual if you play Champions League.
There is always a lot of resistance and a lot of talented teams play in the Champions League – and Bologna is one of them.”
“You might also view the (other) results that were revealed tonight, some of which may have been unexpected. Winning, keeping a clean sheet, and several strong individual performances made the whole thing positive.
Despite a red card, Juventus triumphs.

After Šeško scored his second goal from the penalty spot.
The home team appeared to be winning the match due to another handball call.
This time while Douglas Luiz was blocking a free-kick.
Despite being reduced to 10 players, the Vecchia Signora did not let that stop them.
First, Vlahović scored a fantastic goal from outside the box, and then Francisco Conceição.
After the game, Vlahović remarked, “We proved that we are becoming a team, we fought together.
Like the coach requested us to, and we won rightly, despite suffering with a man down.
It was an excellent show. These victories and these games, we need to get used to this level. We need to keep going even more firmly.
