From the start, Manchester City and Real Madrid were quite the favorites to win the Champions League and now that Manchester City has been knocked out, of course Real Madrid is the most favored team to win the Champions League this season and I don't doubt that, they have everything to make it happen.

I don't know what kind of luck you're talking about. City had (including the first match) 210 minutes of pure playing time to prove that they were stronger, but they could not do it. By the way, if you remember the first game, it was really an accident that City scored three goals. Despite the fact that Real won in a penalty shootout, it was a natural victory for Ancelotti, which completely neutralized Guardiola's plan.

As Ancelotti said, this record must be broken and it was proven even though they played with total defense, but honestly I saw Madrid performance differently, the players were very focused and alert not to make mistakes. Solidarity maintained the defense, Vinicius, Rodrygo and Bellingham also helped in defense. He was attacked with a total of 33 kicks, 9x shots on target and Lunin made 8x saves. This proves that, no matter how small the opportunity, Madrid players make good use of it. This is football and this is the game of 2 great Man City teams who fought as hard as they could. 12 minutes into the first half Madrid were still able to apply pressure but after that until the second half ended what Ancelotti troops did was strengthen their defense. back line. For me this lag is like playing half a field and Ederson can count on his fingers how many times he touched the ball in 120 minutes. Meanwhile, Lunin continues to receive attacks that make him stronger. As a result this penalty shootout became Ancelotti target rather than conceding in extra time. Btw, I actually missed the Bayern vs Arsenal match because when I wasn't monitoring the score, the atmosphere of the Man City vs Madrid match was much more exciting and thrilling.

Today we have lost 2 Premier League representatives, only 1 La Liga representative, 2 Bundesliga representatives and 1 Ligue 1 representative remain.
Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid
Dortmund vs PSG

In the competition for the final round, the teams that qualify above are the teams most in doubt in the quarterfinals.
