Aletico Madrid-Real Madrid 3-4 d.c.r.

Real Madrid beats Atletico Madrid on penalty kicks and flies to the Champions League quarterfinals. The Madrid Euroderby once again goes to the Blancos, who did not shine at the ‘Metropolitano’ and went down after just a minute. In the second half, Ancelotti’s men have a chance to equalize but Vinicius sends in the stars from the penalty spot. By virtue of the 2-1 in the first leg in favor of the Merengues, it thus goes to extra time and then to penalties, once again fatal to the Colchoneros after those in the 2016 San Siro final.

Atletico got off to a strong start and after only 27 seconds è already took the lead: De Paul’s low cross from the right and Gallagher’s winning kick on a slide. On 20’ Alvarez tried from the distance but his right foot è out of reach. Five minutes later è again the former City to make himself dangerous but Courtois is ready.The duel between the Argentine striker and the Belgian goalkeeper continues between the end of the first half and the beginning of the second half but to come out the winner è again Courtois.

At 60’ Lenglet tries a header but his attempt ends just wide. At 68’ the episode that can change the game: Mbappé goes away in slalom and is landed in the box by Lenglet, earning a penalty kick. on the penalty spot Vinicius comes up and clumsily kicks high. On 71’ Simeone tries but Courtois è careful. In the final Correa also tried but he kicked high and so it went to extra themes

.

In the first overtime the first to try è Brahim Diaz but his shot è easy prey to Oblak. In 98’ Sorloth missed the appointment with the ball on a nice invitation from Barrios. In the second half it was the Blancos who pushed but without ever really making themselves dangerous: so it went to penalty kicks.

After goals from the penalty spot by Mbappé, Sorloth and Bellingham, the fourth penalty kicked and converted by Alvarez, but it was annulled by Var for a double touch. Lucas Vazquez gets hypnotized by Oblak putting the Colchoneros back in the game but Llorente kicks over the crossbar and Rudiger does not forgive, sending the Merengues to the quarterfinals where they will take on Arsenal.

Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea also advanced without too much trouble, as they s’d narrowly beat Copenhagen in the return leg, ending the doubleheader with an overall result of 3-1.

Great show of strength by Djurgarden, which after losing 0-1 in the first act, è managed to overturn, at home, Pafos with a clear 3-0. On target for the Swedes were Fallenius, Stensson and Nguen.

Cercle Brugge, on the other hand, failed to make a comeback, and after the 0-3 loss in Poland, did not go beyond a 2-0 success against Jagiellonia in Belgium.

Rapid Vienna needed the extra time to file away Borac Banja Luka. Ending 2-2, the double-header in the 180-minute aggregate, è a goal by Schaub in 96′ to open wide the doors of the quarterfinals to the Austrian team.

In addition to Lazio and Athletic Bilbao, Manchester United, Lyon, Tottenham, Eintracht Frankfurt, Bodo Glimt and Glasgow Rangers will also break out the pass for the Europa League quarterfinals.

At Old Trafford, the Red Devils overwhelmed Real Sociedad thanks to Bruno Fernandes’ hat-trick (including two on penalties) and Dalot’s goal sealed in the midst of recovery. It was of little use, the goal scored from the penalty spot by Oyarzabal.

A clear success also for Lyon, which after the 3-1 win in the first leg, rifled a peremptory 4-0 win over Steaua Bucharest, for an overall result of 7-1. Absolute stars of the evening were Mikautadze and Nuamah with two goals apiece.

Eintracht Frankfurt also made the field factor count, crushing Francesco Farioli’s Ajax with a heavy 4-1 win. The German outfit brought it close already in the first half thanks to goals from Bahoya and Gotze. In the resumption, then, Ekitike and once again the former Dortmund make the deficit even more important for the Lancers, to whom the goal of the flag signed by Taylor is not enough.

virtus-bologna-koos-with-real-madrid:-dusko-ivanovic-recites-mea-culpa

The words of Dusko Ivanovic

Everything was easy for Real Madrid against Virtus Bologna. At the Segafredo Arena, in fact, the blancos made a vacuum since the first partial closed 30-17, dominating far and wide the match beating the felsinei with a peremptory 80-67. Speaking at a press conference, Black Vu head coach Dusko Ivanovic wanted to take full responsibility for the heavy knockout suffered by his boys.

“Tonight we had several problems in the first half, especially in the first ten minutes in which Real Madrid played well. We were not aggressive, the defense was not at the right level and that è my fault. In the second half we did better, but the gap was too wide to think of winning the game” began the coach of Virtus Bologna.

“Justin is doing his best. He’s a good player, but as with so many good players who have played in the NBA coming to Europe for the first time there are many differences. It takes time to adjust to a different basketball. For our part, we are trying to put him in the right conditions so that he can find the right confidence and play better” added the Montenegrin coach.

“Belinelli and Pajola had physical problems. Their status è to be evaluated day by day, but it should not be anything serious. We hope to be able to count on them already from the next game” commented Dusko Ivanovic.
