Its quarter-final draw Champions League brought great clashes between Europe’s top teams.
The team with the most conquests, Real Madrid she is facing last season’s champion and, among other things, she will have to overcome the recent negative tradition, which she maintains with Manchester City.
In their last seven meetings, the “citizens” count five wins, while one game ended in a draw. The Spaniards’ only victory came in May 2022, in a sensational game where Real’s players scored twice in stoppage time and eventually went through to extra time.
This pair is always a draw and both teams have a good chance of qualifying. Their last meeting is also the most characteristic, since his team Pep Guardiola prevailed against the “Queen” and qualified by winning 4-0.
The Catalan coach himself commented on the draw, stating that his team is facing the kings of the Champions League.
“We have no other choice. It seems to be becoming a tradition, for three consecutive years we play with the kings of the event“, the message of the Manchester City coach.
Pep Guardiola on the #UCL draw against Real Madrid: “We don’t have another option. It looks like a little bit of a tradition, three years in a row playing the kings of the competition…”
