This was the first leg between Real Madrid and Manchester City. Of course, there is another whole match to be played between them. I am quite certain that Real Madrid will be able to win the second leg.
Of course, we all know what happened the last time in the Champions League between these two. I believe Real Madrid has the capability to do something similar like that if the situation asks for that type of performance from Real Madrid. I was also a little surprised to see how Rudiger was actually able to hold down Haaland in this match. It was really unbelievable defense from Real Madrid.
therefore I say that there are many opportunities for Real Madrid to win in the UCL because Real Madrid's goal is to win titles in several major leagues and put the domestic league aside a little. as we can see, Madrid performed very well in yesterday's UCL match when defending each other and shooting at each other towards goal, even though Madrid players often shoot the ball off target, this will make the Man City players' mentality a little bad.
I just hope Real Madrid will still get what they dream of again being the UCL title.
I don't think Real Madrid is going to face too many problems going to the finals. I mean they have done it before. I think if they are able to defend Haaland as they did in the first leg they are not going to have too many problems in my opinion.
You know, Real Madrid is a very strong competitor in the Champions League. I was hoping that Manchester City will be able to have some kind of lead going into the second leg of the semi-final. That would have given Manchester City a better chance to win against Real Madrid. But now I think the chance of Manchester City winning and advancing to the final is actually very low.
