Barcelona and Atletico Madrid was eliminated yesterday and Real Madrid remained the only La Liga club in the UEFA Champions League and facing a top side, Manchester City. They maintain their balance and never back down from pushing for excellent performance. Carlo Ancelotti knew exactly the outcome of this tough game and he have to focused on winning treble this season. Real Madrid is a top team and they don't give up their chances for nothing, always fighting till the very end because they're one of the best team in the European world of football.
The match between Real Madrid and Manchester City looks very even, their strengths compete well. It was recorded that Manchester City attempted several kicks, up to a total of 33 shots attempted by Manchester City to penetrate Real Madrid's defense. I really appreciate Andriy Lunin because he managed to defend Real Madrid well. At least ending with a draw is proof that these two teams have the same strength.
Real Madrid and Man City's performances seemed balanced and had equal performance. They played a very fierce match and looked very tense. I thought there would be lots of goals scored like their first meeting, but it turned out there were only 2 goals in that match and Man City dominated more. and took many shots and was unable to break through Madrid's defense which seemed to be guarded firmly. I also really applaud the performance of Andriy Lunin who was able to make many saves from Man City's many attacks.
Until finally Real Madrid was able to win the match with a penalty kick and managed to get rid of Man City in the top 8 and Madrid will advance to the next round against Bayern Munich. This will be quite a tense match. I can't wait for the two giants to meet head to head Madrid has greater chance of winning.
