Yes, Real Madrid is the only team that has had the most impressive performances in the Champions League this season. The way they came back from losing the match in the last minute, no one imagined that Madrid would secure the win in this match. However, the forwards were more competitive towards the end of the game, and they attacked more and more against Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich were unable to overcome this last-gasp attack as Madrid went ahead with two goals in the space of three minutes to win the match and advance to the final. When Bayern Munich conceded the first goal in the last minute in the 88th minute, every Bayern player was very frustrated, and they could not stop Real Madrid's attack. However, Real Madrid have played well enough this season, and they have won La Liga, and they have a good chance of winning the Champions League as well. Congratulations to Real Madrid, they will face Dortmund in the next final match and Madrid team will beat them there to become champions.

In the match early this morning. Real Madrid almost gave up. Several opportunities they had were thwarted by the Munich defense and Manuel Neuer's brilliant performance. However, Carlo Ancelotti made changes by bringing on Joselu in the 81st minute. Evidently, the striker was the figure who changed the outcome of the match. Joselu immediately reacted quickly, he scored a goal in the 88th minute and in the 91+1 minute to give Real Madrid a 2-1 lead which was also the final result of the match. We can prove that Joselu's role was very important when Madrid's attack line was deadlocked.

A comeback like this is only possible for Real Madrid. Real Madrid came back in the second leg match against Bayern Munich, no other team could have come back like this in the last minute. First Bayan Munich went ahead and until the 88th minute it looked like the result of this game might go in Bayan Munich's favor and that's what we thought after watching the game. However, being a Real Madrid supporter never has to be disappointed, Real Madrid has once again proved it. 

Real Madrid scored a goal in the 88th minute and secured the team's victory by scoring in the first minute of the extra 5 minutes. When Real Madrid scored the second goal, all the players of Bayern Munich looked very disappointed as they knew immediately that this match was impossible for them to win. 
Congratulations to Real Madrid for becoming the first team to qualify for the Champions League final this season.

The exciting match in the second leg of the semi-final was an exciting match and a lucky break for Madrid because they managed to beat Bayern with a narrow score of 2-1 and will advance to the Champions League final and of course Dortmund has been waiting to get ready to face Real Madrid.

In the final match, of course it will be more exciting where a team will fight for the championship title. It seems like it will be difficult to predict the final result whether Dortmund or Real Madrid will be champions. On the one hand, Dortmund played very well against PSG, they had a tight and solid defense which of course made it difficult for the enemy to score goals.

However, when I saw today's match between Madrid and Bayern, I saw that the performance of Vinicius and his friends was very good, which of course will definitely result in an exciting match, but I personally predict that Real Madrid will win in the final match, what do you all think?

The final result was what I wanted, Real Madrid was able to get rid of Bayern Munich with a narrow score of 2-1. The final between Real Madrid vs Dortmund was more exciting than Bayern Munich vs Dortmund, which both came from Germany, even though this match was held in the final at the UCL, it still had the aroma of the Bundesliga in it.
Real Madrid is certainly more favored based on experience in the final and depth of the team, but Dortmund, which has always presented surprises since the start of the competition, must be watched out for because of its status as a dark horse team in this competition. Bayern Munich's failure to qualify for the final added to their suffering under Tuchel's management, after previously losing the Bundesliga Trophy, they now have to bury their dream of winning the UCL trophy.

The second leg match between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich was truly a very interesting spectacle and it is quite obvious that both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are very determined to win. Even though Bayern Munich played as guests, they performed quite well and were still able to keep up with the host. But still, if we look at the course of the match, it feels like this match will belong to Real Madrid because they can create lots of opportunities and it's just a matter of time until they can score a goal. Real Madrid's winning mentality is not just a figment of the imagination. It was proven that they could play without having to lose their composure even when they were 1 goal behind Bayern Munich.

 This is not the first time Madrid has won through difficult situations. Last week, at the Allianz Arena, Madrid equalized through Vinicius' goal in the 83rd minute. Madrid trailed 1-2 from the 57th minute in this match. Likewise, during El Clasico against Barcelona, ​​Madrid also fell behind 1-2 in the 69th minute as if Madrid were going to lose. However, who would have thought that Madrid would be able to emerge victorious with a score of 3-2. In the second leg, Real Madrid hosted Bayern Munich at the Bernabeu. After a 0-0 draw in the first half, Madrid conceded in the 68th minute through Alphonso Davies' goal. When everyone thought Madrid would lose. In fact, in the 88th minute, Madrid was able to equalize the score at 1-1 through a goal created by Joselu. And in the 90+1 minute Joselu then changed the score to 2-1. Madrid has qualified for the Champions League final for the 2023/2024 season.

 Real Madrid continues to prove they have a strong mentality when facing Bayern Munich in the second leg of the 2023/2024 Champions League semifinals.

Real Madrid got advantage on left winger side how easily Vinicius Jr break out the Bayern Munich's defender, I think not wrong when Vinicius Jr became man of the match for last night behind his contributing helped Madrid success qualifying to final round and reach 15 final matches in Champion League or most teams play in the final.
Since early minutes, Vinicius Jr made many attempt but impressive performance of Bayern Munich goals keeper Manuel  Neuer with several crucial saves make Madrid difficult for scoring goals. I think its brilliant Vinicius Jr initiative made shots out the box and the rebound success taking by Joselu scoring the goals.

---

The champion league final match will play at Wembley Stadium on 1st June, Madrid will face Dortmund with lead head to head and I think optimistic with Real Madrid winning the final match and will collect 15 of UEFA Champion League trophies.
Gracias Real Madrid

With much swinging excitements, Real Madrid managed to win scoring two goals in last 5 minutes coming out of one goal deficit. The game was intense from start from both teams. Later minutes of 1st half were a bit slow but the 2nd half again was full of actions. Manuel Neuer had some impressive saves in particular and Vinicius Junior was particularly fast for Real Madrid. Even with the twist and turns the game ended as predicted making the home crowd happy. This was the psuedo final for champions league and no team can now stop Real Madrid from raising the trophy once again.

Could it really be just luck? or favoritism?

If this is true, then the players will have their way because there is no reason for the Bayern current coach to remain in the club because this season has been one of the worst seasons in their history, no trophy from their local and European competition. The next coach will have a big job, he will need to reclaim the Bundesliga title or win the champions league next season to retain the job, if not Bayern management will sack them too until a coach does it.

It would be foolish to underestimate Dortmund in the final.
Remember, this is the final match and underestimating either club is definitely foolishness because being in the final has proven that they are worthy and in very good form.

But that was a long time ago and now Madrid are still in the euphoria of winning today's game where Joselu is the hero for them now.

The ambition of Dortmund especially Reus will be huge because apart from this is the first trophy in the Modern era because although Dortmund have won this competition but it happened in the 1197 season and the modern era they only managed to be runners up once in 2013 so now is a good momentum because this could be a good farewell gift for Reus.
But on the other hand of course this is not easy, Madrid want to continue their record as the club with the most Champions League trophies besides, some players such as Modric, Kroos and other players also currently want their record to increase by winning the Champions League trophy especially for Don Carlo who is preparing to show off his 6th Champions League trophy after his record was stopped last season by Manchester City in continuing the record for most Champions League trophies as a coach.

It will face Real Madrid in the final and dortmund must be fully prepared in order to get the trophy. i strongly believe a lot of dortmund's players are gonna be targeted by the big clubs as long as it can win UCL. The opportunity remains, but it is significantly reduced in comparison to the real Madrid which has been king of UCL for so many times. We may see Real Madrid win its 15th UCL trophy this season after it will beat dortmund. PSG did not have enough luck in all three legs against Dortmund and it helped dortmund to qualify for the final. None ever predicted that if dortmund can go this far this season. How many times did PSG's shots hit the crossbar? They did it numerous times.
It has also been worrying me since the end of the first leg about PSG's chances of qualifying for the final. As long as Dortmund plays carefully against Real Madrid. It is possible that they will be European champions soon.
I'm not even denying that Dortmund still has a chance to be European champions. Even though Real Madrid is heavily favored to win against Dortmund.

I can't say Ancelotti knows when to bring him (Joselu) and all that praises, I think he (Ancelotti) was luck in that game, he's suppose to give the player that opportunity as a Madrid player no matter how he got to Madrid, imagine the manager playing Rodrygo, Vinicius Jr and Bellingham up front and non of them are standing 9, why not bring Joselu into the mix? Well let's see how lucky they'll be against Dortmund and I tip the German side to win the title.

Real Madrid 2 - 1 Bayern

it was an excellent game, I'm a fan of both teams so I was rooting for both teams, although I saw that if Bayern won, they would lose in the final against Dortmund and that wouldn't be good, that's why I was hoping for it to be the real madrid to win and go to the final because that way they will easily beat dortmund. but I confess that when Bayern scored a goal and the game was stagnant without a goal for many minutes and I started to see that Real Madrid could lose, I confess that I was not pleased with that possibility and I was more shocked and worried when I saw that Valverde left to enter Joselu, I thought: "the Real Madrid coach is already admitting defeat. It's not possible that he's putting Joselu on"

I was more worried about the result of the game, but when Joselu scored a goal, I confess that I had a lot of hope that Real Madrid could still win the game because Bayern's defense is very weak this season. So the moment the game was tied, it was already clear that eventually Real Madrid would score the second goal and win the game, but I didn't imagine that it would be Joselu again who would score the winning goal. without a doubt he was the great savior in this game. But it was Bayern's goalkeeper's fault for the first goal and Real Madrid's second goal was questionable. Anyway, I feel that Real Madrid has been very lucky with the referees this season and that in Bayern's case, the players are sabotaging Tuchel on purpose so he can leave the team.

Honestly, there is joy in watching football because right now I feel so much happy even though the team I supported lost still I am impressed by their performance. I know they didn't play to lose, their intention is to qualify for the final is just that some errors occurred or let me say the pressure from their opponent make them give up.

With the energy of the Real Madrid players and supporters used, I have to admit that they are truly the Champions League real king. They were losing in the final minutes, but they never gave up and managed a fantastic comeback. I believe I should give them praise for their efforts, even though I don't want they should qualify.

The last time Borussia Dortmund played a Champions League final was in 2013, and Real Madrid had won four Champions Leagues since then. We can see that there is a great difference between them, and I don't think they can beat Real Madrid in the final.
It is always difficult to play against Real Madrid in the Champions League final, and to be honest, Madrid are in better form now, but we will see what Borussia Dortmund has to offer. I hope they will give a positive result because anything can happen in football, and I will be the happiest person on the planet if Dortmund made it to lift Champions League trophy.

After many attempts, Real Madrid managed to secure the final match, as both teams performed so aggressively in the first half of the game that neither team was able to score.  By the 68th minute, Bayern Munich was able to score. However, the Real Madrid team did not succeed in their attack, so far the result of the game was 0-1 goal difference until 88 minutes. And in the 88th minute, Real Madrid's Joselu leveled the game with a goal, and then it was more of a race to see who could score the last victory. The entire gallery erupted in joy, and in extra minutes, Real Madrid scored another goal to seal the victory. But Joselu single-handedly made Real Madrid's dream come true with a brace and was instrumental in securing the final match as well.

Real Madrid Vs Bayern Munich semi finals, review of Vinicius Junior

I don't have much to say, but my respect for Vinicius Junior has really in tonight's match. ThankGod he was rewarded as the Player of the Match. That guy got lots of energy and vibration, skillful and speedy, full of power and motivation. After the likes of Ronaldo, Ronadinho, Kaka and then Neymar, I have refused to acknowledge that Vinicius is another football god from Brazil, but tonight I have confirmed. Which people were tipping Jude Bellingham for Balon D'or? Lol...Vini is a joy to watch. Congratulations to Madrid and happy I have to watch him again in the finals.

I will not underestimate Dortmund completely in the finals, they defend so well, were able to get to the finals too against all predictions. Real Madrid are the favorites to win but if they under plan for Dortmund, seeing them as a weak opponent will be surprised because that Dortmund team can win the competition by just one goal. Vini Jr is fast, and a good player, but not as remarkable as Kylian Mbappe, Dortmund were able to silence Mbappe in the games, they can do it and will just need to do it against Vini Jr.

If Dortmund will win in the finals, it will be difficult game, they have some other Real Madrid players to worry about if they are successful with keeping Vini Jr busy and unfruitful all through the game.

Real Madrid did it very well, and as usual, they did it by surprising them in extra time. The final between Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid will definitely make a special impression, especially for Dortmund. Maybe they themselves didn't think they could reach this stage. And this is not just because of luck, but rather the big efforts they have made so far. To win their first trophy in UCL, they have to beat Real Madrid and this certainly won't be easy. Moreover, it is true, Real Madrid is very experienced in Champions League finals, of course, considering that they are already very strong and a solid team.

Not only that, we know very well how Ancelotti did it with Real Madrid. Yep, this is the 6th time Ancelotti has won the UCL final as a football manager. And this gives him sufficient experience. We'll see how the two of them will implement their best tactics for this best competitor. And of course, once again, both of them are here because they deserve this, not because of luck only.

With all this achievement and contributions to the team, I don’t think Real Madrid are going to keep him permanently. When his loan expires, he’ll be going back to his team Espanyol. By next season, the likes of Mbappe will be joining them and with the forward positions already filled up with great players and also some reserves, he won’t have enough playing time with them. He would rather go back to his club where he will have enough playing time and will more respected there after his wonderful performance and contribution to the club this season. I wish him the best but I don’t see him actualising a future with Real Madrid yet.


You don’t underrate a team or player in a top notch competition like this. For the team to have getting this far in the competition, you should already be aware that the team can’t be lenient with and you have to put all your strength and best players into the match to get a victory. PSG really messed up because I never saw this coming and never expected them to be out of the competition after getting this far and been paired with Dortmund. The winner of the tournament will most likely be Real Madrid but let’s see how things will turn out since no team can be underrated again.
