One sometimes does not understand some football fans too much. They spend their lives seeing matches, traveling around the world and still do not learn the basic rules of survival and label when you are going to face a feared rival in Europe. Although … Already only because of a matter of mere superstition, it never is convenient to suggest the bear. Because you can stir. And if the bear growls, everyone is silent. When in the prolegomena of the party one of the funds of the Etihad took out a banner by calling Vinicius already intuited that something could happen. Not to mention the gesture of bad taste of Rodri taking a photo to the typhus (as if he could not then get the snapshot out there). So what happened happened: Vinicius caused in the last encouragement of the game, when the draw was already good, the decisive play to push her Bellingham with that gallop of English purasangre and seal the white trace. Provoking the football gods has these things. The one who cries the last one cries worse.
Real Madrid played a perfectly imperfect game against Manchester City. He insisted, endured and finished off. Curious that his three goals arrived in the most unusual way possible: with a hit in Mbappé’s semifallo, with a rejection that fell to a newly admitted Brahim after a gift from Ederson and with accidental vinicius assistance. Instead, the better worked occasions failed (some brushing room football). Sometimes you go for gold and come back with copper, sometimes you go for copper and come back with gold.
Scott Fitzgerald said he liked to drink because when he drank “things happened.” I like to play Brahim for similar reasons. Always leave something special about the grass every time it comes out in important quotes: an unbalanced turn, a touch, a dribble. And he works well without ball, key in an impossible equilibrium team. It gives the feeling of being a permanently under -user player. And that is the most compliment that can be said of a substitute: I leave you wanting more.
This Guardiola City is less recognizable than never, but as dangerous as ever. His way of playing has changed. It is surprising that, with Rodri’s decline, there has been a team so different from that of past courses. Because the staff structure is practically the same and is not so aging. It may be precisely that accumulated effect of the efforts of previous years. Many more disabled players are seen. It does not seem that perfectly greased machinery that overcame you by crushing, winning each duel in the grass, without allowing the rival of the middle of the field. Which makes it an even more disturbing team because you don’t see it coming.
We do not know if Ancelotti will repeat eleven in the Bernabéu (another small victory was not to lose any of the sanction warnings for the return). There is only one clear thing for Wednesday’s game: it is not necessary to get any banners against Guardiola. A beautiful mosaic and the thing goes chuta.
