Can and will Real Madrid win the Champions League again at the end of the season?
Online sportsbook news sites in Spain would have think you lost your mind if you placed a bet on Real Madrid to win the Champions League again. Nobody ever won that trophy twice in a row – until 2017 when Zidane’s men did it. And obviously no team has ever won it in three consecutive years.
Real Madrid are hoping to make history once again at the end of this season. Which seemed to be quite horrible for them – by the end of January, they were out of the race for winning La Liga, in addition to being knocked out of the Copa del Rey by Leganés. The Champions League is all they have left.
EVERYONE expected PSG to beat Real Madrid
Everyone thought it will be an easy game for PSG, even the most experienced sites in the online sportsbook directory. PSG attacks with Neymar, Mbappé and Cavani, while Real Madrid keep conceding even against the weakest of teams. However, those who thought this was going to be easy-peasy for the French (Qatari?) side, forgot about the fact that the Champions League does not equal any national league.
The Champions League is a completely different tournament, and Real Madrid proved that this year. All betting sites wrote them off but they beat PSG on the first leg and can wait the second leg from a comfortable 3-1 advantage. Will Real Madrid qualify from this position? Will Real Madrid win the Champions League again?
Who could stop Zidane’s Real Madrid?
Zidane’s team is still looking forward to finally meet that one special team who will be able to knock them out of the Champions League. Online sportsbook sites in Spain were pretty much sure that PSG will put an end to the amazing record set by the Royal Club. However, the French manager and his players had different ideas in mind.
Of course, it’s still too early to be sure about Real Madrid winning the Champions League again. However, it’s kind of hard to find a team who could actually challenge them. Manchester City seem to be strong enough – but let’s wait till they meet a team that is actually organized and is at the top level.
Barcelona and Bayern Munich also come up among title favourites and they could obviously stand a chance against Zidane’s men. However, they are yet to face Chelsea and Besiktas respectively. Could any of the remaining teams beat Real Madrid if PSG fails to knock them out?
