However, they went the venues those that attained to hurt with his only finish to door: a bombazo of half distance of Vinicius Jr.

The Madrid went out with his in the first part

The injury of Nathan Aké forced to Pep to go back to the line of four deep down, with John Stones and Kyle Walker commissioned to cover the right side and the pair Rúben Dias-Manuel Akanji completing the saga. Without Éder Militao, Carlo Ancelotti appealed to the logic with Antonio Rüdiger and David Praises in the centre and the already usual by the bands, Carvajal and Camavinga. The Italian put to Toni Kroos of '5' and to the whites cost them recover the balloon and suffered the initial stretch of the party.
