AS MAN CITY PREPARE TO PLAY REAL MADRID TONIGHT, LET’S TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT THE BRILLIANT CHAMPIONS LEAGUE ACTION FROM (06/03/2024), BETWEEN MAN CITY AND COPENHAGEN, WHERE A GOAL FROM MANUEL AKANJI AT 5 MINS., AND ANOTHER FROM JULIAN ALVAREZ AT 9 MINS. MORE OR LESS BLEW EVERYONE’S SOCKS OFF WITHIN THE FIRST 10 MINUTES. (AND LEFT EVERYONE WONDERING WHETHER COPENHAGEN’S GOALKEEPER GRABARA COULD ACTUALLY SEE OUT OF HIS FACE-MASK!) BUT THE COPENHAGEN FANS REMAINED CHIPPER, JUMPING UP AND DOWN, SINGING, AND WAVING THEIR SCARVES, WILLING THEIR TEAM ALONG, AND LO-AND-BEHOLD COPENHAGEN GOT ONE BACK AT 29 MINS. WITH A BRILLIANT GOAL BY MOHAMED ELYOUNOUSSI! ERLING HAALAND THEN SCORED A CRACKER AT 45 + 3 MINS WEAVING BETWEEN SEVERAL SETS OF COPENHAGEN LEGS, AND CURLING THE BALL INTO THE BACK OF THE NET, WITHOUT MUCH EFFORT AT ALL, WHICH ALL CULMINATED IN A 3 – 1 WIN TO MANCHESTER CITY (6 – 2 ON AGGREGATE.)

THIS WAS ANOTHER EXCITING MATCH LAST NIGHT BETWEEN REAL MADRID VS RB LEIPZIG, WHERE THE LIVELY CROWD HAD TO WAIT QUITE A WHILE BEFORE THE FIRST GOAL, BUT THEN TWO CAME IN QUICK SUCCESSION, WITH ONE GOAL FROM REAL MADRID’S VINICIUS JUNIOR AT 65 MINS., AND ANOTHER FROM RB LEIPZIG’S WILL ORBAN AT 68 MINS., CULMINATING IN A 1 – 1 DRAW, MEANING THAT REAL MADRID REACH THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE QUARTER-FINALS, SECURING A 2 – 1 WIN ON AGGREGATE.
