5-4!6-4!The Champions League is in chaos, extreme situation: La Liga is wiped out, and the Bundesliga 2 team enters the top 4!
The second leg of the Champions League 1/4 finals officially started, but no one expected that the two teams that won the first leg, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, all overturned, and the La Liga team, which was originally the most promising to reach the top, was even at risk of being wiped out!
In the first leg, Barcelona defeated Paris 3-2 and became the only team to win away from home, firmly holding the initiative of promotion in their own hands. Back to their home stadium in this round, Barcelona only needs a draw to eliminate their opponents and reach the Champions League semi-finals again after eight years. And the trend of the game has always been developing in the direction of Barcelona. Just 12 minutes into the game, Barcelona played a sharp counterattack, Yamal broke through along the wing and sent a cross, and the follow-up Raphinha easily outflanked the goal to help the team extend the aggregate score to 4-2!
I believe that all Barcelona fans believe at this time that the red and blue team should beat Paris again, complete the double kill of the opponent, and advance with their heads held high. But football is such an unpredictable sport. In the 29th minute, Araujo made a reckless foul on the edge of the penalty area and pulled down Barcola, who had formed a single knife, and the referee decisively showed a red card to send him off, and Barcelona had to face the disadvantage of playing one less player early. And this penalty also became a turning point in the game.
In the game that followed, the leading Parisians launched a crazy counterattack, first Dembele scored from a small angle before half-time to help the team narrow the aggregate score to 3-4, and then Vitinha and Mbappe scored in the second half to successfully reverse the score to 5-4! Forced to the edge of the cliff, Barcelona had to pour out of the nest, and the big pressure also made their back line began to expose more gaps, in the 89th minute, Mbappe scored another goal, expanding the aggregate score to 6-4, killing the suspense of the game in advance. In the end, the away game of Paris staged a big reversal, eliminated Barcelona with an aggregate score of 6-4, and entered the Champions League semi-finals!
Atletico Madrid, another La Liga giant, is also not much better. In the first leg, with a stubborn defense, Atletico Madrid, who were playing at home, defeated Dortmund 2-1 and seized the opportunity to advance. But after returning to the home field, Dortmund, who had a back-to-back fight, played bloody, Brandt's Maatsen scored one after another in the first half, and it only took 45 minutes for Dortmund to reverse the aggregate score!
Yibian fought again, this time playing the role of "chaser", replaced by La Liga giants Atletico Madrid, they also scored two goals in a short period of time, and the aggregate score was overtaken again to 4-3! But this night, it is destined not to belong to the La Liga team. In the 71st and 74th minutes, Dortmund scored back-to-back goals from Phil Krueger and Sabitzer to complete the final blow against Atletico Madrid. In the end, Dortmund defeated Atletico Madrid with an aggregate score of 5-4, and once again entered the door of the Champions League semifinals after 11 years!
And soon, La Liga's only seed, Real Madrid, will also usher in their own Champions League showdown. With the first leg held to a draw at home to Manchester City, their promotion situation has become very dangerous. After the quarterfinals, we may see that the La Liga team, which was originally the most promising to win the championship, was wiped out, while the Bundesliga, which everyone is not optimistic about, has 2 teams entering the semi-finals!
