Everything remains to be done in the first semi-final of the 2022/23 Champions League. Real Madrid and Manchester City shared the stake (1-1) at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Everything will therefore be decided next Wednesday in Manchester. With the support of their public, Manuel Akanji and his teammates benefit from the favors of the prognosis. But with this Real who so often makes the impossible possible in CL, ManCity will be careful not to fall into blissful optimism. The memory of last year’s semi-final which had smiled on the people of Madrid must still haunt the Mancunians.
Akanji delivers the goods
Despite the often maddening possession phases of City, the people of Madrid were the sharpest in the opposing area. Real were able to open the scoring by Vinicius in the 36th minute on a superb action triggered by Eduardo Camavinga.
The Frenchman was less happy in the 67th with his bad recovery which brought Kevin de Bruyne’s equalizer. Thibaut Courtois was powerless once morest the superb strike of his compatriot and best “enemy”.
Established on the left flank of Pep Guardiola’s three-man defense, Akanji delivered the goods even if he was sometimes thrown off balance in front of Rodrygo’s verve.
