First leg in the Champions League, Real and Manchester City win

by admin

PALERMO (ITALPRESS) – Real Madrid and Manchester City win the first round but nothing is written yet. The Champions League quarter-finals are underway: the blancos beat Liverpool 3-1 at Valdebebas’ “Di Stefano” while Guardiola’s team only managed to beat Borussia Dortmund 2-1 in the final. Zidane, who in extremis also lost Varane because he was positive at Covid-19, finds in Vinicius the most inspired footballer. The Brazilian, after having touched the head post on a cross from Mendy, unlocks it in the 27th minute: launch from the back of Kroos to catch the former Flamengo who makes fun of the two central Reds and crosses right to beat Alisson. Nine minutes after another initiative by Kroos, unfortunate header by Alexander-Arnold who ends up serving in the middle of the Asensio area, the Spaniard is good at discarding Alisson at the exit and signing the double. The Reds are back in the running at 6 ‘of the second half, when a shot by Diogo Jota is deflected and ends up on the feet of Salah, who from two steps makes no mistake, but at 20’ Modric serves in the center of the area Vinicius who is free to turn around and sign the 3-1. In Manchester City found the advantage in the 19 ‘: ball won in midfield, De Bruyne widens for Foden, a cross that ends up on the other wing to Mahrez who puts it back in the middle where De Bruyne himself leaves no way out for Hitz. Ten minutes later Hategan points to the spot for a contact in the German area between Emre Can and Rodri, only to retrace his steps after having reviewed the episode at the Var. A goal in Bellingham was canceled due to a previous intervention on Ederson considered foul, in the second half the Brazilian goalkeeper is then good at blocking Haaland saving the result and so does Hitz, opposing Foden’s safe shot. Then a fiery final: in the 84th minute the equal of Reus arrives on a splendid assist from Haaland, in the 90th minute the winning goal of Foden served by Gundogan after another invention by De Bruyne. Return matches scheduled for April 14, tomorrow it’s Porto-Chelsea and Bayern Munich-Paris Saint Germain. (ITALPRESS). glb / red 06-Apr-21 23:05
