From Liverpool to Juventus, many teams need a UCL miracle
2. Real Madrid
Now, as we talk about Real Madrid, we have to say that this team, especially when Zinedine Zidane is coaching it, can win any time, anywhere and against anyone in the Champions League. They already have shown that in the three previous titles they’ve won.
This time might be a little bit harder than before as they are 1-2 down against Manchester City, which means they have to head into England and score at least two goals, against the second place team in the Premier League.
It is bound to be hard, but not impossible to achieve for Real Madrid. History is on their side, as they have played four times against Man City (excluding the last game) in the Champions League and they haven’t lost, two wins and two ties. Two of those games came in Semifinals of the 2016 edition, a 1-0 overall score led Real Madrid to another UCL title.
Now some would think that they could keep the team’s momentum after regaining the La Liga first place and beating Barcelona in el Clásico. However, just one week later they lost it after a loss of 2-1 vs Betis. You never know which version of Real Madrid you can see.
