In the first leg, 4-3, Manchester City held the initiative and Real Madrid fell behind by one position.
In the 89th minute of the second leg, Manchester City still led 1-0, the hearts of Real Madrid fans gradually became cold, and The momentum of Manchester City seemed unstoppable.
But all of a sudden, happiness comes! After Rodrigo scored twice, Benzema sealed the win and certainly couldn't forget goalkeeper Courtois' several saves.
Rodrigo: Shot at the moon twice, stopped City's progress.
In the 90th minute of the match, Benzema assisted Rodrigo to equalize, and Real Madrid remained behind on aggregate (4-5). Rodrigo's goal at this time is more realistic than hope as comfort. Because, damn time is running out.
Both the Bernabeu fans and those in front of the screen should be thinking about the possibilities for the remaining few minutes. This time, the speed of action exceeded the speed of thought. Just 1 minute later, before the crowd could turn around, Rodrigo scored another goal.
Poor Yellow Throat of real Madrid fans, the hoarseness caused by the cheers of the last goal has not been moistened by saliva, and has to roar again! However, even the yellow throat will have to tear open the throat and roar, and there will be no hesitation.
Reversal of the game is not uncommon on the pitch, Real Madrid this time "flipped" enough to become a classic, 21-year-old young Rodrigo can be described as a world war god.
Courtois: The Savior several times, firmly said no to Manchester City.
In fact, Manchester City has played very well in these two games, with 180 minutes in two legs, and overall dominated the first 179 minutes. It can be said that Real Madrid is a bit uncomfortable facing the fast pace of Manchester City, and even if they return home, they still play more passively.
If it were not for real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois's repeated high-pitched resistance, the game would have been out of suspense for a long time, and the blue moon would eventually illuminate the Bernabeu. Especially before the 89th minute, Courtois's key save allowed Real Madrid to escape the disaster several times.
In the 15th minute, De Bruyne fired a long-range shot from outside the box;
In the 20th minute, the B bench fired from the right;
In the 40th minute, Foden fired a long-range shot from outside the penalty area;
In the 50th minute, Jesus fired from the left;
In the 84th minute, Cancelo fired a long-range shot from the out of the instep;
In the 87th minute, Glalis clipped a shot from a defender inside the penalty area;
These shots inside the frame were all threatening, but they were all sad for Courtois's ten-finger mark.
Without Courtois' several key saves, even Rodrigo's twice would not have prevented City from reaching the Champions League final.
Benzema: Boss, keeping Manchester City out of the Champions League final.
From escaping the offside trap of body hair to a volley with just the right amount of strength, Benzema is the one who opens the door to victory for Real Madrid.
In extra time, Benzema made a point and took the penalty, personally closing the door to the Champions League final, with Real Madrid inside and Manchester City outside.
Looking back at the first leg of the clash, Benzema's two goals were the basis for a second-leg reversal and the hope of a reversal. Imagine if Real Madrid were 4-1 behind Manchester City in the first leg, I'm afraid the chances of a reversal would have to shift the decimal point to the left.
Throughout the two games, Benzema seems to be in charge of the key to the door of the Champions League final, and between opening and closing, Real Madrid has ascended to heaven and Manchester City has fallen into the dust.
The showdown between Real Madrid and Manchester City, its excitement and ups and downs, will most likely make the final Champions League final a lot worse. Of course, Ancelotti and Guardiola also contributed.
