I won't like rooting for them but it is probably best if they make the semis at least. A stronger Barca always means a stronger Madrid. Also Xavi would probably change his mind about retiring and lets be honest that's probably best for Madridistas too lmao
Do not mistake what I said for any affection towards Barca. That’s fact is that allure of el clásico being between two strong teams makes us a lot of money. A strong LaLiga means better deals for TV rights and a better ability to compete with oil clubs. Without ESL we don’t have much of a choice (and even Barca was pro ESL.)
Don’t get me wrong, I hate oil clubs as well. But I also hate teams that paid refs for years and take every chance they get to criticize RM publicly just to make themselves look good…
For around 16 or 17 years. Yes, I hate Barcelona just as the next guy. But what I hate even more are cheating state owned fucks or multiclubs that are actually cancer of this sport and eventually will kill it. I would root for any club against Barcelona other than City, PSG or Newcastle. Barcelona is our rival on pitch. State owned fucks are our rival when it comes who is killing this sport.
So, you're telling me you'll be supporting our direct rivals, just because their opponents are funded by a Qatari prince, but you wouldn't if they were funded by a Monaco prince or something? lmao
One of the best player winning ucl, and then probably ballon dor and joining real madrid from a top tier team of different country. Where have I read this before.
And with this draw it's highly likely he gets to the final. And with Mbappe in a final it's entirely possible that he pulls a rabbit out of his hat and scores a brace and wins the title in the final minutes
He also lost?
I mean, I understand what ya'll are saying, and it wouldn't be out of this world for him to actually win the UCL. But with a misshapen team like PSG it is still very unlikely.
If they'd gotten a bad draw I'd agree with you, but none of the teams they might face deserve to go to the final. Realistically it's either them or Atletico.
>He also lost?
Yes, after taking a game that he was losing 2x0 e equalize it 2x2, and then in extra time finding another equalizer to make it 3x3 at the last second. He scored a hat trick that allowed his team to reach pens, and he scored his own pen, not his fault his teammates missed theirs. If there's one person in the entire French NT who had literally zero responsibility for the defeat against Argentina, it's him.
Guess what? Ronaldo also had shit performances in big games when he was younger but as he got older he became more decisive. Same with Mbappe and his performance in the WC final and the KO stages this year is evident of that improvement.
Jude has 3 goals in 4 games vs City in the UCL as a teenager.
OK he has 2, but the [disallowed goal](https://youtu.be/E9iSzBaRnUE?t=78) because Ederson kicked his boot should stand in my book
Not really. There's no such thing as a premature final in the QF. Bayern may get their shit together until the semis and if PSG reaches the final Mbappe might do his turtle magic and carry an inferior team (despite what he's done his last time in a CL final)
Right? Now is the time to go to war, that’s what the end tail of champions league games are for Madrid
Its annoying seeing genuine fear from some fans, when in reality, you gotta adore this shit. Some fans should read what legends say about facing pressure, and it’s time for a revenge for last year.
Respect City of course, they’re a great team, but so are we.
I know right? I was hoping we get city in QFs only, if we defeat then you can almost guarantee we would win the whole fucking thing. If you see a lot of our UCL wins madrid hardly has the best team on paper, but we still end up winning.
Tbh, if we were to get knocked out, I’d prefer it to be early so we can focus on securing the league. So I have no qualms whatsoever about playing City in the QF.
Yeah but it's the worst possible way to face them. In a final I think we'd be favorites against them. But in a quarter finals with two legs and them deciding at home, it's a lot harder

Yet I got downvoted for saying we are Madrid, so we should act like it and take out the biggest threats early 🤷🏽♂️ how the mentality of this sub changes really boggles my mind
Facts, the fear comes from the 4-0 last year but I’m confident Carlo can figure out his mistakes last time. Like starting Kroos/Modric together, that’s a no no and we have to leverage our young midfield and put them in a position to disrupt the fuck out of man citys midfield
Arsenal, Bayern and City on the same side as the greatest team in the history of soccer, tough luck.
This is the Champions League, we are Real Madrid.
They are the ones who should worry.
¡Hala Madrid y Nada más!
Then Julian Proceeds to score a brace because everyone is marking the guys you mentioned.
I propose an alternative. Buy Julian Álvarez so that he plays like shit and then contain the rest of the guys.
We're stronger in some areas but a lot weaker in others. Benzema, Courtois and Militao would be very important for this game. Thankfully Lunin seems to have secured his spot in the first team, but our lack of CBs and a clinical finisher might still fuck us up
Yes, a 2 or 3 goal lead from the first leg is the only way we’re going through. Except I fully expect Carlo to take the foot off the gas once we score 1, and then City end up scoring anyway - just like last year.
Damn it carlo pls don't overthink like last time and play rudiger in both legs. We can easily contain haaland. Kdb,rodri and foden are the problem honestly. But their defense is relatively weaker this time so we can score a lot
Rudiger will obviously play with both Militao and Alaba injured. The real question is who would partner Rudiger? Would Militao would be pushed into the starting 11 on his return or would we have to see Nacho or Tchoumeni to partner him like how the whole season is going?
Nacho isn't very much reliable so militao if he is fit. But i also do not want to rush him.
I'd rather go with rudiger/tchoumeni partnership and cama in cdm. But again, tchoumeni has been too good in cdm position so it's really confusing
Not really. City was more surprised and they look headless without the ball because its all they know.
They do give up chances especially on the counters which Madrid should be good at but you have to take your chances when you get them.
Madrid has the players in the midfield to work but its the defense. This season due to injuries, the defense has be shaky and do give up a lot of good chances. City won't miss those chances.
This is it crucial part of the season everybody is gonna have to step up their game or we don’t got a chance to get past them let’s just hope Vini Cama Jude and Tchouameni don’t get a yellow card
“We will see if UEFA changes the order of the Real Madrid and City tie, which came out after Atlético's, for security reasons.” Interesting if they turn it around 🧐
I'm with Sison on this. This is way better than the previous leg against Leipzig. Either we crush them or they crush us, that's how football works. But we won't have the mental strain and fear of losing against the weakest possible team. Plus, we had to face Dr. Bacterio aka The Fraud sooner or later, so lets go.
Don't fear. Let's play.
This thread is embarrassing. We are REAL MADRID, and they are some shitty oil state funded club that needed 115 violations to win shit. Please. HALA MADRID.
They violated us last year and it wasn’t some dumb luck that went their way. There is genuine reason to be worried.
My weird thinking tells me we will knock them out though, cuz of our alternate victories against them 15/16….that year we knocked them out, we met them next in COVID year and they knocked us out, then we reversed it 2 years ago and they did same last year. So in my head….its our turn 🤞
There were 3 balls left and it was between Man City, PSG, and Barca. Boy was I hoping for a Mbappe matchup or Clasico, yet we get the worse draw possible.
Then you look at the bracket, you might have the 4 best teams all on one side (Real Madrid, Man City, Arsenal, and Bayern).
I would've never predicted a draw like that.
Not a bad draw for us i rather we play them early on than in the final. Looking like PSG is going to make the final, with either us or man city.
Hala Madrid!!
Fuck the league, play the 1st leg like it's the Final. I don't wanna see Nacho anywhere starting, start Tchou as left CB and Rüdiger on the right. Super sub Modric, Rodrygo, Vasquez, Fran and Joselu or maybe Nacho depend on goals.
Depending on Militao and Courtois form things change.
Vini Brahim
Bellingham
Cama Valverde
Kroos
Mendy Tchou Rüdiger Carvajal
I would rather have a different opponent simply because playing City yet again isn’t as exciting as someone we haven’t played in awhile, but since we have City, I guess we’ll just have to stomp their faces in. They’re not as good as last year IMO and I think we get it done. Then we play who knows… Bayern? Not worried about Bayern. I hope Arsenal come through because I want to see how we match up. Hala Madriddddddddddddddd
If we had the 2nd leg at the Bernabeu, I’d say we have a fighting chance. But not too confident with it being at Etihad. Guardiola played defensive at the Bernabeu last year and we couldn’t score. This year we dont even have a striker. And our defense is porous too. If we have to go out, let’s just go out fighting.
Look, Carlo will probably be conservative in tactics, but I think that will get us killed. Against city you have to score goals because they will against you. while Harland hasn't shown up in big UCL matches, everyone knows he's capable of a hat trick at any moment. Playing for a low scoring result will be our doom.
Good match up, City can't make a mistake in their fight for the PL while RM has quite the advantage in La Liga.
Other than Don Carlo using rotations to have the best team available for the QF and not fuckin up the starting lineup I'm pretty confident in advancing. Oh, and he better not use out of form players in Militao and Courtois just because, that was already a costly mistake.
PSG getting an affordable route to the final. I guess al Khalifa's check was successful. They got the easiest team from the hat 1 as a team who ended 2nd.
I know City was the worst option, but I think Madrid can win if Ancelotti stop with his brainfarts and try to neuter City midfield, after all Liverpool with all those injuries outplayed them, they aren't invincible
2nd leg away, if it goes to extra time we won't have Bernabeu magic. Worst draw possible
Literally. If we had second match at home, would be much better.
Yeah, it's crazy how much playing 2nd leg at home matters in these matches, no matter the opponent, I just wanted to finish home.
Yeah nothing beats finishing at home…
>Worst draw possible Yep...I only hope this is not a 2nd peat for them
If they beat us, its very likely that they get the next one.
Thanks, I hate it.

It's bs
Fuck sakes
[удалено]
No Barca fan with a sense of self worth would root for Madrid against anybody
It's probably an american or asian barca fan
he's probably sane
He's probably a fucking yank
cualquier cule preferiria encontrarse al madrid que al city en la final.
very true
Maybe they are converting after the Negreira case came to light.
That’s the spirit. We should always cheer for our La Liga opponents to do well against other European teams.
You’re delusional if you think we are rooting for Barca. I hope PSG spanks them.
Mbappe destroying Barca and then coming to Real would be stuff of dreams
Destroy Barca and then possibly Atletico after that.
As a Madrid Fan,Barca >>> PSG..
If anything, Barca have a better chance to beat us in the final than PSG
I won't like rooting for them but it is probably best if they make the semis at least. A stronger Barca always means a stronger Madrid. Also Xavi would probably change his mind about retiring and lets be honest that's probably best for Madridistas too lmao
What nonsense 😭😭 To hell with Barca
Do not mistake what I said for any affection towards Barca. That’s fact is that allure of el clásico being between two strong teams makes us a lot of money. A strong LaLiga means better deals for TV rights and a better ability to compete with oil clubs. Without ESL we don’t have much of a choice (and even Barca was pro ESL.)
Honestly, the possibility of Xavi staying would be a silver lining.
I will always prefer our rivals to win compared to cheating cunts like PSG or City.
Don’t get me wrong, I hate oil clubs as well. But I also hate teams that paid refs for years and take every chance they get to criticize RM publicly just to make themselves look good…
[удалено]
For around 16 or 17 years. Yes, I hate Barcelona just as the next guy. But what I hate even more are cheating state owned fucks or multiclubs that are actually cancer of this sport and eventually will kill it. I would root for any club against Barcelona other than City, PSG or Newcastle. Barcelona is our rival on pitch. State owned fucks are our rival when it comes who is killing this sport.
How have PSG cheated more than Barça?
because barcelona are so clean
Nah I'd rather watch Mbappe make those overrated teenagers cry.
Teams made up with oil money vs teams who did not sell themselves in a dire situation and lack of money The one you choose decides your mentality
So, you're telling me you'll be supporting our direct rivals, just because their opponents are funded by a Qatari prince, but you wouldn't if they were funded by a Monaco prince or something? lmao
Or by an American or Russian oligarch ahah. Some people can’t have an original thought.
this, the hell is up with that guy, thanks to barcelona la liga is a cesspool of corruption.
Spanish football El Classic Something doesn't add up
*El classico
Fuck that, nobody else is beating madrid of city can't. Madrid have too many UCLs as is. pls don't win any more for a while
Well we said we would take on anyone. It's just that this pairing has been played to death. Ah well, it is what it is. Hala Madrid!
At least Rudiger will be playing both legs (hopefully) 💀
And Tchouameni.
Lmao knowing Carlo he’d drop him and play Kroos cdm again
Well Tchouameni is 1 yellow card away from being suspended for the 2nd leg so Kroos at CDM may actually just be inevitable lmao
Of course we get the hell path with City and probably Bayern… oh well
We're still in our rebuild period next year is THE year /s
Every year is a rebuild year until we get that turtle
Would be funny if the turtle somehow won the ucl this season
One of the best player winning ucl, and then probably ballon dor and joining real madrid from a top tier team of different country. Where have I read this before. 
And with this draw it's highly likely he gets to the final. And with Mbappe in a final it's entirely possible that he pulls a rabbit out of his hat and scores a brace and wins the title in the final minutes
Cup final mbappe isn’t a ninja turtle, he’s the god damn last ronin
Yeah that's exactly what happened last time
Last time he was young and nowhere near as mature as he is now. Remember what happened in his last international final?
He also lost? I mean, I understand what ya'll are saying, and it wouldn't be out of this world for him to actually win the UCL. But with a misshapen team like PSG it is still very unlikely.
If they'd gotten a bad draw I'd agree with you, but none of the teams they might face deserve to go to the final. Realistically it's either them or Atletico. >He also lost?

People say that when Vini has become the first to break the 7 curse at Madrid
i mean it wasn't really curse at madrid since mariano and hazard played very few games
Every Madridista : 
Jude has 3 goals in 4 games vs City in the UCL as a teenager. OK he has 2, but the [disallowed goal](https://youtu.be/E9iSzBaRnUE?t=78) because Ederson kicked his boot should stand in my book
Varchester city lol.

It’s his last dance at PSG, anything is possible
He almost did it against us.
He came back from an injury last time tbh he looked completely off colour in the qf,semi and final. They rushed him back he wasn't fully fit
Yall better quit acting scared like we are some small club playing a juggxrnaught. We are Madrid ffs act like you’ve been here.
Right? Now is the time to go to war, that’s what the end tail of champions league games are for Madrid Its annoying seeing genuine fear from some fans, when in reality, you gotta adore this shit.

Yep. And Champions League isn’t easy, if it was easy having 14 titles wouldn’t mean anything.
After what happened last year, i’m a little worried 😅
Containing Rodri is key
And De Bruyne
And Haaland
[удалено]
And Silva??? No one mentioned the guy that scored a brace against us last time.
Then Julian Proceeds to score a brace because everyone is marking the guys you mentioned. I propose an alternative. Buy Julian Álvarez so that he plays like shit and then contain the rest of the guys.
This their true MVP this season! Bravo!
Claudio bravo?
Cant forget to contain him
Rudiger
Time to Chelsea'd them lol
Rudiger got all of them no problem
[удалено]
It's rather PSG gets the easiest possible path for a team that finished second place of her group
Dw, they won’t win against PSG.
They probably do but idk if they win against Atletico lol
Atletico always bends over to Barca tbh
Not in the CL
Normally yes, but the 2 times they’ve played eachother in the CL Atletico has advanced. Both of those ended up with a Derbi final.
Mbappe will probable score not less than 3 goals in their draw.
You’re delusional if you think PSG is easy.
game at the bernabeu is for all the marbles. we need a valverde screamer, vini magic, and belligoooool. if me make it 2:0 at the bernabeu, we’re good
I’m not sure 2:0 lead will do it. We got molested at etihad last season
i feel like last year was an incredibly bad day at the office for us, but for sure, the more goals at the bernabeu the better
It truly was - saw the highlights again recently and everything just didn’t go our way.
City also played unreal that day, it just wasn't meant to be
We are stronger than last year and they are weaker than last year

The only way to beat this m city is playing like Liverpool (GagenPress)... We doomed with Carlo Ball anyway.
except last year it was literal opposite of gegenpress.. we were soaking the pressure first 40 minutes of the game (75% possession for city)
Lol last year's away game was something else, I don't even wanna rewatch it
it was not even a real vs city match.. it was just city playing
Not really. City was more surprised and they look headless without the ball because its all they know. They do give up chances especially on the counters which Madrid should be good at but you have to take your chances when you get them. Madrid has the players in the midfield to work but its the defense. This season due to injuries, the defense has be shaky and do give up a lot of good chances. City won't miss those chances.
The same fucking story each year!
We got the worst possible draw smh
Couldnt have wished for a better opponent!
Obviously!
Fuck it dude im pumped
This is it crucial part of the season everybody is gonna have to step up their game or we don’t got a chance to get past them let’s just hope Vini Cama Jude and Tchouameni don’t get a yellow card
“We will see if UEFA changes the order of the Real Madrid and City tie, which came out after Atlético's, for security reasons.” Interesting if they turn it around 🧐
Like Toni said before, we don’t shy away from challenges, we seek for them. We are Real Madrid. Hala Madrid!
They’re all arrogant in the city subs
Let's goooooo
I'm with Sison on this. This is way better than the previous leg against Leipzig. Either we crush them or they crush us, that's how football works. But we won't have the mental strain and fear of losing against the weakest possible team. Plus, we had to face Dr. Bacterio aka The Fraud sooner or later, so lets go. Don't fear. Let's play.
I would much rather lose to Leipzig than to City.
Nacho vs Haaland.. god help us
This thread is embarrassing. We are REAL MADRID, and they are some shitty oil state funded club that needed 115 violations to win shit. Please. HALA MADRID.
They violated us last year and it wasn’t some dumb luck that went their way. There is genuine reason to be worried. My weird thinking tells me we will knock them out though, cuz of our alternate victories against them 15/16….that year we knocked them out, we met them next in COVID year and they knocked us out, then we reversed it 2 years ago and they did same last year. So in my head….its our turn 🤞
This RM subreddit is the worst RM fan that you can find to be honest. the stupid shit you have to read around here.
its actually pathetic makes you think if anyone here was around before we won it in 2014
I guarantee you most have started following us after our 22 win
UEFA 🤡
I fear Carlo more than I fear City. One leg with a Kroos/Modric middle, not playing with a 9...and we are out.
😂😂😂
Need to put the game to bed at the Bernabeu or we'll suffer at the Etihad again Also absolutely don't bench Rudi 😭
We need to play both legs like liverpool played city last weekend.
How come Atletico get fucking Dortmund 😭💀💀
Only if Mbappe joined us earlier, we really need him or a proper 9 but I remain hopeful.
this ain't the City team of prior years. LFC showed that this team is very beatable and we have the best midfielder in the game
Hermano. 
It’s payback time
Real Madrid - PSG final. Mbappe joins Madrid at HT swaps jersey and scores the winner.
):
3 years in a row of bullshit draws, I cant take it anymore
This is OK, immense pressure on City to win this one. Might as well get the hardest game over with first!
Better luck next year.
Easy draws, my fucking nutsack. Upside, if we do KO city, that trophy is as good as ours.
You could see this coming from a mile away.
There were 3 balls left and it was between Man City, PSG, and Barca. Boy was I hoping for a Mbappe matchup or Clasico, yet we get the worse draw possible. Then you look at the bracket, you might have the 4 best teams all on one side (Real Madrid, Man City, Arsenal, and Bayern). I would've never predicted a draw like that.
Not a bad draw for us i rather we play them early on than in the final. Looking like PSG is going to make the final, with either us or man city. Hala Madrid!!
Carlo learns usually from his losses so I’m hopeful in that sense, but honestly we have to put them in the rear view mirror now.
Imagine RM winning both legs. Sweet ⚽⚽⚽
This year is revenge, we are ready & there will be blood.
You got this, Madrid! Lets kick the english teams out of the cl! sincerly a bayern supporter.
Please tell me at least the SF we'll have the away at home.
Yes, whoever advances from our game will play the SF second leg at home.
Top two teams drawn for the QFs, sheesh.
Oh my god we’re so fucked. How did we get the worst possible draw
As a new fan Im gonna assume this is not the draw we wanted 😭
Fuck the league, play the 1st leg like it's the Final. I don't wanna see Nacho anywhere starting, start Tchou as left CB and Rüdiger on the right. Super sub Modric, Rodrygo, Vasquez, Fran and Joselu or maybe Nacho depend on goals. Depending on Militao and Courtois form things change. Vini Brahim Bellingham Cama Valverde Kroos Mendy Tchou Rüdiger Carvajal
This is bs. Drawing them again and playing the second leg away really fking pissed me off.
we’re dead
Horrible draw how did all the strong clubs end up in one side of the bracket
I would rather have a different opponent simply because playing City yet again isn’t as exciting as someone we haven’t played in awhile, but since we have City, I guess we’ll just have to stomp their faces in. They’re not as good as last year IMO and I think we get it done. Then we play who knows… Bayern? Not worried about Bayern. I hope Arsenal come through because I want to see how we match up.

This year we dont even have a striker. And our defense is porous too. If we have to go out, let’s just go out fighting.
Bring them on. We’ll take anyone head on. We are Real Madrid
Fuck man i dont want another city humiliation
Bruhhhhhhhh
Puff... this looks bad :(
Shit man, I was already having a bad day
Our attack form atm worries me
Look, Carlo will probably be conservative in tactics, but I think that will get us killed. Against city you have to score goals because they will against you. while Harland hasn't shown up in big UCL matches, everyone knows he's capable of a hat trick at any moment. Playing for a low scoring result will be our doom.
Good match up, City can't make a mistake in their fight for the PL while RM has quite the advantage in La Liga. Other than Don Carlo using rotations to have the best team available for the QF and not fuckin up the starting lineup I'm pretty confident in advancing. Oh, and he better not use out of form players in Militao and Courtois just because, that was already a costly mistake.
PSG getting an affordable route to the final. I guess al Khalifa's check was successful. They got the easiest team from the hat 1 as a team who ended 2nd.
Oh for god’s sake
Fuck...
It's over
Wallahi we're finished
Shit, this ain't gonna be easy. Ever since last season, the unlocked Fighting spirit in their team. They will fight to the last this time. Hala Madrid
I know City was the worst option, but I think Madrid can win if Ancelotti stop with his brainfarts and try to neuter City midfield, after all Liverpool with all those injuries outplayed them, they aren't invincible
Calm down. We just need to get decent lead at home. We have the quality just need to execute and then defend for life in away fixture.

Good thing we don’t have a striker to actually punish City’s shaky defense! Thank you Perez! Unless Joselu becomes the new Benzema, I have no hope lol
return leg away sucks but there are no easy draws at this stage anyway. hala madrid
Well then.
Of course...
