The two sides have met in the knockout stage for three consecutive seasons, with each winning once. Manchester City's last Final Four second round 4:0 win over Real Madrid (5 wins in two rounds in total): i. However, the Galaxy have strengthened this season and have the strength to battle with the Blue Moon.
My old club Real Madrid had a lot of options on offense, but Zudy Binningham's performance was crucial, as he was able to score at a crucial moment with his world-class long-range shooting and ability to get into the box from behind. It would be interesting to know what kind of targeted planning Gordiona will do to stop him, and I expect Rodrigo Casciandi will be looking after him very closely.
In the last match, Keel managed to freeze Yunis Oszulia, preventing the opponent from reaching the level he deserves, but since City's right goal may be absent due to injury, in other words, Real Madrid may attack City on the left side. Rodrigo Gómez has also been on a roll lately, so Real Madrid's attacking power up front seems to be very strong, and should be able to put the opponent's defense under pressure.
What is certain is that the midfield will be a major battle in this match and will never be able to allow Chivun Dibny, Phil Cotton and Bernardo Schwarz to have time on the ball. Seeing that, Caio Aveni will force them and make it difficult for them to perform conveniently, but Ossie has to be smarter and not lose possession so easily.
Last but not least, the fight between Rudiger and Enninchalant will be quite exciting. I think the German national team's defender will fight physically and try to provoke each other, because he knows that Anincharant only needs a start to score.
