2023-05-17 23:20:00

Manchester City marked the world of football with an XXL performance that will go down in history. On the other side, Real Madrid, defending champions in the Champions League, fell brutally from their throne. Winner of five C1s in the past nine years, the Madrid club was only a shadow of itself on Wednesday evening as Pep Guardiola’s men dominated the debates in the widest possible widths.

Real thus lost a Champions League game by four goals for the second time in their history, following a 4-0 defeat at Liverpool in the round of 16 second leg of the 2008-09 edition. This is to say how much the Madrid club was humiliated at the Etihad Stadium.

Usually so dangerous in the opposing area, Karim Benzema and Vinicius Junior barely had crumbs to eat. Worse, the reigning Spanish champion suffered incessant waves, especially in the first half. Moreover, this first act will also go down in history. Madrid suffered thirteen shots in the first forty-five minutes, their worst total since the return of knockout matches in 2003-04 (note: they equaled their 2012 record once morest Bayern Munich).

Guardiola’s greatest masterpiece? “The inescapable side was shocking”

A real revenge of 2022

“Things didn’t work out today, we didn’t do any damage to their surface, lamented Thibaut Courtois, who saved his people for a long time in the heart of the first act, at the microphone of Movistar. In truth, we got into the game badly. In the end, the bill is very heavy. You can lose on penalties, in extra time, 2-1, 2-0, but 4-0 is very difficult” His team-mate Dani Carjaval also recognized the superiority of Manchester City, which his team had eliminated at the same stage of the competition a year ago.

“They were better from start to finishdropped the Spanish defender. They were very strong and we must congratulate them.” For his part, Carlo Ancelotti, who was confident regarding his future at Real Madrid, did not want to dramatize.

We’re not going to make a drama out of it

“This defeat hurts a lot, but it can happenthe Italian first said. They were superior this year as we were superior last year. Obviously the match did not go as planned. But we are not going to make a drama out of it. This defeat is only a step to do better next year … We are already looking towards the next Champions League where we want to be competitive. Pep Guardiola? I congratulated him, because he played better than us” The Catalan did not shy away from his pleasure following obtaining his revenge: “We had a year of pain in the belly“. Twelve months later, things have completely turned in his favor.
