Haaland neutralizes Bayern and Manchester City meets Real Madrid in the Champions League semifinals (1-1)

nothing has to do with this Manchester City with that innocent team that fell at the first opportunity in the European qualifiers. those of Guardiola they already know how to pull craft and efficiency and meet with the expert in this field in the semifinals of the Champions League, the Real Madrid. The English team made good the bulky victory (3-0) of the first leg drawing 1-1 before him Bayern in munich. Haaland It was once again decisive for his team.

Tuchel did not amend the mistake of the first leg

Dayot Upamecano He was once again the great protagonist (for the worse) of the game, just as it happened in Manchester. Thomas Tuchel He kept the Frenchman at the center of the defense and he was crowned: he saw a red card after half an hour, which was later annulled for an offside, he committed a penalty later and was portrayed in City’s only goal. Although it seems that this is reducing the overall calculation of the tie, it’s hard to remember such a dismal individual performance in a Champions League tie.

Bayern missed chances of all colors from the start of the game. The rush and the desire to start the comeback were too much for a forward that despaired after minute 1. Sané, Coman, Musiala and Choupo-Moting They were not successful against Ederson in front of the goal. Too many mistakes for a team that had to come back from three goals.

City also forgave, but they could afford it. Haaland sent the penalty into limbo Committed by Upamecano, but as usually happens with the Norwegian, the second time he went inside. A pass into the hole De Bruyne originated the play of the City goal. Haaland broke Upamecano’s hip, who slipped trying to defend the striker, who burst the Bavarian goal.

Haaland beats otro record in Champions

The Norwegian becomes the youngest player in history to score 35 goals in the Champions League. In addition, it is the one that has needed the fewest games to achieve it. Without a doubt, the Scandinavian is the great rival of Leo Messi in the race for the next Ballon d’Or.

Kimmich tied for Bayern with ten minutes remaining, after a handball from Akanji. The goal of hope came too late for a Teutonic team that had already given up.

There will be a repeat of last year’s semifinals between Manchester City and Real Madrid. Guardiola will seek his revenge against the champion and will have a small advantage: the return will be at the Etihad. The Catalan continues to dream of his first Champions League away from Barcelona, ​​but he will have to eliminate his executioner from last year in the early end of the competition.
