SEMIFINAL BAYERN MUNICH VS REAL MADRID
The match played on Wednesday 25-4 at the Allianz Arena in Munich, in my opinion, was a very strange game. During much of the meeting the German team attacked and cornered a Madrid that had notoriously gone to Germany to play against. In spite of the injuries of Robben (minute 3) and Boateng in the first time (very felt the one of Robben by the Bayern); Bayern through Ribery could find the formula to penetrate in several opportunities the area of a real Madrid that suffered from the right wing. However, the goalkeeper of Real Madrid managed on several occasions to deny a second goal to Bayern in the first half, which could have settled the tie.
The Real Madrid without having made great merit, took advantage of two defensive mistakes of the Bayern defense (let bounce a ball in the area, with at least 4 Bavarian players near the ball and the gift of Rafinha) and specified what were the two goals that gave him victory in the Allianz.
The match that will be played this first of May in Madrid promises greater emotions. First, because Bayern will attack (you must find two goals to visit) and Madrid, despite being a very defensively vulnerable team, will be inspired to be in their stadium and before their people to go to flatten Bayern. Zidane already said at a press conference "we must change the attitude at home or otherwise, we will suffer ...", Heynckes and the German players know that Real Madrid has a very permeable defense; In addition, they lose Carvajal, while Bayern recover Robben and Alaba (the latter makes a pair with Ribery for the same band that defended Carvajal).
In my opinion, although Real Madrid won the first leg, I think it has great difficulties and will not play so open to attack because it knows the great difficulties it has in defense. If Bayern manages to withstand the pressure of the first 20 minutes and starts to handle the ball to Madrid, will have great chances of reaching the final.
It will arrive on Tuesday and we will see ...
