Real Madrid – Manchester City, live: last minute of the Champions League round of 16, live today

Sergio López: “Heart against head”

“That’s what this tie sums up. A team without football, but with an extraordinary soul; against a team full of football, but without such a powerful DNA. The real Madrid against him Manchester City.

Logic invites you to think that, this time, the head will win. Because the superiority on the grass is so overwhelming that it has shattered any debate in the previous round. The day has even been boring: the water is wet and the City It’s much better. Any more platitudes? There is no news in that sentence.

And from there, the mystique. The ‘yeah, but…’. Tattoo on someone who has lived them so many times, who knows that at some point they will live them again. If anyone can win, despite being significantly behind, it is Real Madrid. The club of the inexplicable.

Tenant of that asylum where it is illogical to appeal to logic. The Championshe Bernabeu. A fusion with an explosive capacity that exceeds the uncontrollable. City is better and the normal thing is that it happens. But if anyone can eliminate him, despite being worse and full of casualties, it is Real Madrid.

Because the king is wounded; but it is not so easy to kill the king.”

-Sergio López, Real Madrid part editor.
