Real Madrid has done it again. What has happened tonight at the Santiago Bernabéu is the history of the Champions League. Here we leave you the successes and errors of Ancelotti’s team:
Madrid knew that an early goal from Chelsea could make things very difficult for them, and so it was after 15 minutes that Mason Mount took advantage of a mistake by the Whites’ defense and defined at will from the edge of the area.
The match did not ask for the ball to come out from behind and that was exactly what Real Madrid did. Rudiger and Thiago Silva spent the entire first half installed in the rival field, disconnecting all Real Madrid’s attempts to leave.
We didn’t see Benzema, we didn’t see Kroos, we didn’t see Valverde. Madrid went to the Bernabéu without the spirit of the first leg. The first 45 minutes were probably the worst of the season. The midfield did not connect with the players above at any time. The defense was dedicated to bailing water throughout the match. Real Madrid’s low block was too marked, not even when Benzema came out under pressure did the defensive line come out.
Luka is a Real Madrid legend. He was the one who showed his face when the team needed him most and appeared to draw a pass with the outside of his boot that only he could see at the Santiago Bernabéu. Rodrygo defined perfectly and caused the extra time.
Ancelotti does not hide when he says that Madrid is dependent on Benzema, and it is normal. We all knew that Karin’s moment was coming, that she shouldn’t be changed and once again, the fittest duo in the world appeared to give the team oxygen when it needed it most. Vini put the ball on Karin’s head, which she finished off at will.
