After the controversial end of the match against Valencia, in which Real Madrid achieved a draw after losing the match by two goals, the white team faces the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Leipzig with the objective of playing a serious match that allows them to be in the next quarterfinal draw. In the first leg they achieved a favorable 0-1 result in the Germans' field, so we will see what the meringues are capable of.
Thus, we leave you with the lineup that Carlo Ancelotti could have on the green for this important match:
BY: LUNIN – The Ukrainian goalkeeper is the one chosen to cover the white goal in all games until Courtois returns to the highest level. Despite not showing great confidence in the ball from above, the player has great ability between the sticks, and right now he is irreplaceable in Ancelotti's schemes, making saves of great merit, and keeping Real Madrid alive in games that At first they became complicated.
LH: CARVAJAL – The Spanish full-back is going through a great moment of form at this stage of the season. At 32 years old, he is demonstrating great physical ability and a lot of sacrifice, which is allowing the team to emerge victorious in many of the duels that occur on that right wing.

DFC: RÜDIGER – The German center back is being one of the white team's most outstanding players this year. He has played at a high level and shown that he is currently among the best players in the world in his position. Although he has just come back from injury, he is irreplaceable in Ancelotti's eleven and even more so with the losses in defense.
DFC: NACHO – Nacho is having a great time with the white team. His great versatility in occupying different positions in the defensive line, and with the losses that Ancelotti's team has in that area, his ownership should not be discussed.
LI: MENDY – The French full-back is one of the best in his position defensively. This is what his coach Carlo Ancelotti has stated, and despite having deficiencies in attack, the fact of playing on the same wing as Vinicius means that the Brazilian can have the entire lane for himself and do his dribbles and plays.
MC: KROOS – The German is the team's compass in the center of the field. His absence in some games has been greatly noticed by the squad. The entire game of the white team passes through his boots, and he decides the pace at which it is played, which is why the German midfielder is key in the game of the merengue team.
MC: TCHOUÁMENI – The French midfielder is being very useful for Ancelotti, since he is sometimes using him as a center back due to the numerous losses in that position. However, in this match he will return to the center of the field, to give balance and defensive rigor to that midfield area, in a match that Real Madrid is not interested in going crazy.
MC: VALVERDE – The “little bird” is indisputable in the Italian coach's lineups. In a team as offensive as the white team, a player like this is necessary, with the physical ability to run forwards and backwards, and with determination and courage, which provides great balance to the Madrid midfield.
MCO: BELLINGHAM – The English star returned after injury in the last LaLiga game, and the truth is that he was at a good level. It is key for the white team to recover its best form, especially in this decisive stretch of the season, in which Real Madrid has everything at stake both in the league and in the Champions League.
DC: RODRYGO – The Brazilian is being criticized for his irregularity this season. and the attacker has been playing in a few games in which he is not performing at the highest level, after a very good period in which he scored many goals. We will see if he regains his best form for this match, and can thus chain a good streak of matches.
DC: VINICIUS – The real imbalance of the team in the attacking zone. The Brazilian is tireless and always tries, which makes him a real nuisance for enemy defenses. It can be key in this match in which Leipzig will have to go out and score, so there may be spaces left behind that are used by the Real Madrid star.
Goalie: Lunin
Defenses: Carvajal, Rüdiger, Nacho, Mendy
Midfielders: Tchouámeni, Kroos, Valverde, Bellingham
Attackers: Rodrygo, Vinicius
Go Madrid!
