Of course, forwards helping the defense is a big problem for Real Madrid, for example. You don't experience this at Barcelona. Barcelona forward Lewandowski often helps the defense and is tall enough to clear the ball from the defense. Sometimes, a ball coming off the defense can even create a goal-scoring opportunity for Barcelona. That's why Barcelona has a very good system. Real Madrid has good fans.

I can't deny that Barcelona has an enviable system , in part I recognize that they have a great coach who took that system and has been perfecting it , the fact of advancing lines and leaving everything to the attack is a game that I have always liked , but let's remember that Ancelotti is Italian  and for Ancelotti it was the defense , but he didn't have the material , therefore appealing to his game against one as attacking as Barcelona's last season , the difference was very noticeable.

Barcelona was truly an extraordinary team last year. They did similarly well this year. I'm looking at Real Madrid right now, and they didn't even give the opponent the ball in the first half. Yet, they still haven't scored. The match remains a goalless draw, and I hope we see something different in the second half. Both Barcelona and Real Madrid are considered very important teams in the Champions League, so the games they play in their respective leagues are ones that can be analyzed from the perspective of their opponents. Therefore, they may be able to hide some of their excellent tactics against their opponents. It wouldn't be wrong to say that Real Madrid is one of the favorites to win the Champions League this year. Similarly, we can say that Barcelona is another favorite.
