Real Madrid – Wolfsburg: Mission impossible!

(Baonghean.vn) In the early morning of April 13, Real Madrid will have a reunion with the German team - Wolfsburg at home stadium Bernabeu, in the second leg of the Champions League Quarterfinals.

Last week, Real Madrid was the topic that most interested football fans. Under coach Zidane, the White Vultures are showing a strong revival in the domestic arena - La Liga. The fact that they stopped Barcelona's 39-match unbeaten streak with a 2-1 victory at Now Camp made many people mistakenly think that Real's "love affair" with Zidane would be one of the sweetest love songs at Bernabeu.

However, football is always a sport that is full of risks and surprises. However, on the Champions League front, the Spanish Royal team advanced straight to the quarter-finals with an undefeated record in the qualifying round and defeated AS Roma in the round of 16.

However, behind that series of sublime matches is a harsh reality. It was subjectivity and arrogance that made the Spanish Royal team pay the price when the players all played below their ability and easily fell 0-2 to a "small" Wolfsburg. The defeat was too humiliating, in a way that no one expected. A very pale face, lacking vitality when the defense was loose, the attack was not sharp.

Ronaldo (right) continues to be Real's number 1 hope.

Will that be enough for Real's stars to set foot on the ground in the match to welcome the "Blue Wolves" early tomorrow morning?

The resounding 4-star victory over Eibar is a great start before the “match of the season”. However, the real disadvantage and the “bad statistics” along with the fear of being eliminated early from the Champions League title race are making Real feel like they are being weighed down by “tons” of pressure. History shows that Real has never successfully come back from a 2-goal deficit since 1987.

Meanwhile, since September 2014, Wolfsburg have never conceded more than 2 goals in European competitions and have won 5, drawn 2 and lost 2. They also twice left Spain with a 2-2 result against Villarreal in the 2009-2010 season and a 1-2 result against Atletico Madrid in the 1999-2000 season. That was a huge barrier that affected the mentality of Real's players.

Meanwhile, the “Blue Wolves” marched to Bernabue with a relaxed but extremely stubborn mentality, playing a tight defensive style to preserve their advantage and waiting for the opponent’s weaknesses to counterattack quickly, launching a decisive blow to defeat the opponent. This can be considered a reasonable choice when a Real with nothing to lose will launch an all-out attack in order to turn the tide. Remember, under coach Zidane, the White Vultures are not a team good at imposing their style of play.

It can be said that Real Madrid has never faced such difficulties as now. Memories of a trophyless season like the 2012-2013 season under the "Special One" Mourinho are flooding back. A real test that is not easy to answer as expected for Zidan and his team.

No matter how perfect the plan of Zidane's comeback is, the success still depends on the magic feet of the "trio" BBC with the highest form and excitement. But it seems that the second chapter of the legendary song of the French coach may have to wait until the new season.

At the same time, Paris S.Germain will travel to Man City's Etihad Stadium. In the first leg in France, the two teams drew with four goals scored equally between the two teams.
