Comments Man City vs Real Madrid: Overthrow the king
Although they are the reigning champions of the European Cup of Champions Real Madrid, they are likely to become the former kings after tonight's match against Man City. Accordingly, Real Madrid still maintains its position as a big man in the European arena this season when, respectively, surpassing Liverpool and Chelsea in the knockout rounds of 1/8 and the quarterfinals.
However, in the semi-finals, Los Blancos showed signs of decline when another English team, Man City, drew 1-1 at home in the first leg. With the above results, coach Ancelotti's teachers and students no longer hold the right to decide on their own to compete for the final ticket.
Remember, Real Madrid will be the team that suffers when they have to play away from home and their mentality and performance is erratic. Accordingly, Benzema and his teammates have lost points 2 times in the last 4 matches. In contrast, rival Man City is maintaining an unstoppable brilliant form, winning 16 times and drawing only 2 in the last 18 matches in all fronts.
Particularly at Etihad, Man City made many opponents tremble when they won 17 matches and drew only 1 time in the last 18 matches in all competitions. Certainly, Real Madrid is no exception and it is likely that they will be the next victim of The Citizens.
