Can you guess the second finalist of the Champions League?
Despite PSG ruling their home ground at Parc des Princes and starting the Champions League semifinal with several great opportunities, they lacked precision and dominance. Believe it or not, Borussia Dortmund played brilliantly and maintained a solid defense, and early in the second half, Julian Brandt delivered a corner kick straight to Hummels’ head, resulting in the decisive goal. During the semifinal match in Paris, this was the only goal scored, sending BVB to the grand finale at Wembley!
We already have one finalist, but tonight, a highly anticipated match awaits at the Santiago Bernabéu, home to Real Madrid. The German giants, Bayern Munich, who drew 2:2 with Madrid in the first semifinal at the Allianz Arena, are heading there.
Real Madrid’s coach, Carlo Ancelotti, believes they could have played better in the first match and aims to rectify this in tonight’s home game in front of the Spanish fans. On the other side, Thomas Tuchel of Bayern takes an optimistic view. He claims that Santiago Bernabéu is one of the toughest places to win but still sees it as a 50-50 chance.
Over the weekend, Real Madrid secured their 36th Spanish title by defeating Cádiz 3:0. They didn’t dive into big celebrations because a crucial Champions League match awaits them today. Moreover, Madrid has lost only two of their 49 competitive matches this season and will see the return of Dani Carvajal from a suspension due to a yellow card in today’s match.
Bayern Munich still has several players out sick, and their situation looks uncertain. The odds favor Real Madrid, who aim to add another Champions League trophy to their collection. Will you bet on Real or Bayern today? Place your bets HERE.
