The match between Real Madrid and Manchester City will be very exciting. Last year, when there was a similar match, we watched 2 great matches. I am sure they will give the same excitement this year. Real is the team in better shape right now, but I am sure we will watch a great final match in the Playoffs. The whole world will follow the 2 matches to be played in England and Spain.
After seeing the game between Manchester City and Arsenal that ended the way it ended, I think Madrid will be more confident that they can win the fixture against Manchester city and city will have their confidence tampered as they were literally humbled by an epic scoreline in the yesterday's fixture. I n this fixture it's sad that winning is the only option for either teams as they cannot draw and still have a chance so it's going to be a really epic and yet intriguing game between both teams.
In the last 2 years or even the last 3 years if I remember correctly, these two clubs have always met in the semifinals and indeed in that match, they always became champions in the end. But this season is different, yes they met in the play-off round.
But of course this will be a very interesting match, because both of them are definitely aiming for victory to be able to advance to the next round. I hope they will play openly and exchange attacks in this match.
Because when they play more defensively or are careful because they want to be safe, then usually the match will be monotonous.
