UEFA Champions League LIVE: Real Madrid hosted Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League semi-final tonight and the visitors did extremely well.
The English premier league side gave everything against the La Liga champions, but couldn’t secure a win to advance to the final round.
Pep Guardiola was stunned by the Real Madrid youngsters as they turned things around after coming on.
Pep Guardiola’s men dominated the game in the first half until the 70th minute of the match. It seems clear that Real Madrid are being careful not to concede a goal at the Bernabeu, but the unexpected goal came.
Match Analysis
Real Madrid were poor in the first half of the game and the visitors showed more desire to win the game, but the involvement of Rodrygo and Camavinga changed everything.
Pep Guardiola’s men failed to defend well after the goal scored by Riyad Mahrez and they were punished by Rodrygo.
Thoughts on Carlo Ancelotti?
Carlo Ancelotti is a great manager, but I think that it’s time to hive Camavinga the chance from the start. The French midfielder is a game changer and a huge talent.
He made a good selection tonight, but I think that Camavinga deserves a chance in the starting XI. He has proven himself once again tonight.
Players rating
Rodrygo – Excellent: He came through once again for Real Madrid tonight. He did wonders after he came on in the second half. He scored a brace as he came from the bench.
Camavinga -Excellent
Kevin De Bruyne – Good: He everything during the first leg and second leg of the game, but his side couldn’t proceed to the final round. The Belgian midfielder created a lot of chances against Real Madrid tonight and he is one of the best players on the pitch.
Riyad Mahrez – Good: He was poor in the first half of the game, but thanks to Pep Guardiola who didn’t make a wrong decision in subbing him off. He opened the scoring for City tonight.
Vinicius Junior – Good: The Brazilian winger had a good game and he is one of the key players tonight. Created lovely chances against Manchester City.
UEFA Champions League LIVE
Real Madrid and Liverpool will face in the Champions League final this month and I think that Mohamed Salah’s wishes come true.
