It was a magical Champions League night, with Real Madrid, trailing 3-4 in the first leg, back at home for a time behind, but with Rodrigo's lightning 2 combo in the 90th minute, Real Madrid dragged the game into extra time, and Benzema scored to kill the opponent. In the end, Real Madrid successfully eliminated Manchester City 6-5 on two legs and advanced to the final of this season's Champions League, and Real Madrid's life was really too hard.
The excitement of football is that you never know what's going to happen in the next second, and Manchester City fans were already imagining the Champions League final with Liverpool 90 minutes ago. But City's defence may have been slackened for a second before Real Madrid seized the opportunity, with Benzema volleying in the 90th minute and Rodrigo wrapping up a close-range shot in front of goal. Just two minutes later, Carvajal was slanted into the penalty area on the right and Rodrigo found a free time between Díaz and Laporte to flick the net.
Real Madrid's morale was boosted, and Guardiola was speechless on the sidelines. In extra time, Real Madrid scored another goal, Díaz was fouled in the penalty area, and Benzema steadily scored the penalty he had created. In the following matches, although Manchester City fought back with all their might, Real Madrid held the victory, and the total first leg was 3-4 to the current 6-5, Real Madrid told people what is called the giants.
It is worth mentioning that this is the third consecutive time that Real Madrid has staged a reversal drama in the Champions League knockout round this season, the first leg of the 1/8 final Real Madrid lost 0-1 away to Messi, Neymar and Mbappe led Paris, the second leg defeated the opponent 3-1, the total score was 3-2 overturned; 1/4 final Real Madrid defeated Chelsea 3-1 in the first leg, but in the second leg Real Madrid fell behind 0-3 at home, and it was Rodrigo and Benzema who jointly directed the turnaround; this semi-final against Manchester City, the same plot was staged again.
As Salah had expected, Real Madrid reached the final of this season's Champions League and became Liverpool's final rivals. Despite stumbling all the way, it should be known that Real Madrid eliminated the three giants of Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Manchester City all the way, and the gold content to enter the final is too high. Liverpool, on the other hand, eliminated Inter, Benfica and Villarreal on their way to the final, and Real Madrid faced the Champions League in hell mode.
Real Madrid have reached the Champions League final 17 times in their history, and they have won the title 13 times before, making them a veritable champions league champion. Liverpool have reached the Champions League final three times in the last four years and have also shown a very high level of competition. While Liverpool are considered more likely to win the title, never underestimate Real Madrid's heart for the title, and Ancelotti's side are now a miracle force.
