In the early morning of Beijing time, the second leg of the Champions League semi-final was played first, and Liverpool challenged Villarreal away, Liverpool in the first half of the 0-2 behind, the second half of the three goals in a row, and finally 3-2 victory over Villarreal, two legs 5-2 elimination of the opponent to take the lead into the Champions League final.
Although Liverpool encountered certain difficulties, but still successfully entered the final, and tomorrow morning Beijing time, the Champions League final will produce another seat, this seat suspense can be big, Real Madrid and Manchester City who can get this precious seat, everyone is watching.
Real Madrid in this season's Champions League knockout rounds, almost every game is a classic, the game is very good, the first leg of the quarter-final away to Paris Saint-Germain, 0-1 loss, the second leg back at home, the first half is 0-1 behind, but in the second half Benzema scored a hat-trick, the team achieved a stunning reversal. The quarter-finals won 3-1 away to Chelsea in the first leg, but returned home in the second leg, and actually suffered a 0-3 behind, in extremely painful circumstances, with Benzema overtime final, Real Madrid eliminated the opponent 5-4 in two legs.
Semi-final first round away to Manchester City, the two teams you come and go, but also a single game to blast out 7 goals, Benzema scored twice Vinicius, Real Madrid lost 3-4 to Manchester City, because this year's Champions League canceled the away goal system, so this result for both teams, can be accepted, are not very happy.
Real Madrid, which returned to La Liga, can be described as a giant, and in the case of most substitute starts, it still beat Espanyol 4-0 and won the La Liga championship three rounds in advance. Of course, a La Liga title is not thirsty, and Real Madrid fans are more eager to reverse the elimination of Manchester City in the Champions League tonight.
At present, The Marca newspaper has predicted the start of the two teams in this game, Real Madrid 433 formation, goalkeeper: Courtois, backline: Mendy, Nacho, Milittan, Carvajal, midfielders: Modric, Casemiro, Kroos, forwards: Vinicius, Benzema, Valverde. The biggest suspense is actually valverde and Rodrigo who can start.
Manchester City also have a 433 formation, goalkeeper: Ederson, defenders: Canceló, Dias, Laporte, Walker, midfielders: Rodri, B seat, De Bruyne, forwards: Mahrez, Jesus, Foden. Walker will return from injury, and whether Mahrez, who has wasted countless opportunities on the court, can still get the start is worth paying attention to.
Real Madrid's biggest weakness this season is the centre-back, not only is Alaba and Militan the main partner strength is not enough, the most important thing is that the substitutes are too weak, is Nacho capable of playing at such a level as the Champions League semi-finals? Home against Chelsea, almost chelsea as long as there is a free kick opportunity, Real Madrid in the penalty area is the wind, Real Madrid's back line air defense is too poor.
Although City also do not have a high striker, the header ability of several defenders is still good. More importantly, two consecutive rounds of the Champions League reverse promotion, La Liga and a big victory to win the championship, the recent Real Madrid is too smooth, the misfortune is relied on, always feel that the top-heavy Real Madrid tonight is difficult to reverse the promotion, although as a Real Madrid fan, I definitely hope that Real Madrid will qualify.
