/ Lars Baron (BRAND)
ISl Real Madrid four 2-2 a game he had lost in the 87th minute. The lack of goals from whites, e two goals from Thuram, had those of Zidane who peered into the abyss. In these the legend of Madrid appeared, which he never gives up, to connect in the blink of an eye with the goals from Benzema and Casemiro.
Zidane opted for the same as Clsico plus Lucas Vzquez, substitute for the injured Nacho on the right side after his great performance against Barcelona. Why play what works, Zidane thought, criticized for having changed the team too much in the defeats against Cdiz and Shakhtar Donetsk. It was forbidden to fail again in the Champions League, and with that spirit Real Madrid went out to play.
Game control and dangerous first approaches with Benzema walking around the area, looking for a keeper with more fangs than in previous days. Madrid crushes, steals and attacks on the flanks in search of the goal. Crosses from below and from above that Vincius and Ramos miss a little, tried even from a distance, with a powerful shot by Kroos that Sommer takes well.
In full white offensive came the shot for Madrid at 32 ‘, with a great move by Gladbach that culminates Thuram pulling Courtois. Once again Madrid punished: sterile domination from an alarming lack of punch up and row against the current. Zidane’s men continued to search for their target before the break without success, peeking inside unknown abyss of fall so early.
The second part didn’t change the script, with Madrid in charge mulling their frustration after a Shot by Asensio on the crossbar and a clear opportunity for Vincius who sent her against the fence. In the opposite area, Gladbach threatens to pull the curtain on the match in each against the mighty Thuram, who I summoned all the ghosts with the second goal after a rebound from Courtois in the 57th minute and the third could come if Courtois doesn’t save against Plea.
Madrid were eliminated, pending Zidane’s changes while Borussia rounded off the goal in every attack the ashes of the thirteen times European champion. Modric and Hazard came to the rescue in the middle of the Vincius and Kroos shipwreck. In ’73, the Belgian also failed his after a Benzema service. The ball has landed on the side of the net e ah all hope seemed to die to at least try to tie. The last bullet was Rodrygo for Asensio.
Suddenly, a past ball from Modric saved him along the Casemiro baseline leaving Benzema behind. As he could, the Frenchman connected the shot turned on his back to beat Sommer. It was to score Madrid and Gladbach’s legs are shaking. At 93 ‘Modric hangs up a desperate ball that Ramos drops to equalize Casemiro. Miracle.
