In the Champions League semi-final return fixture against Bayern Munich on Tuesday evening, Real Madrid is poised for a crucial showdown. Despite their 1-0 lead from the first leg, the White House understands the formidable challenge posed by Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena.
Gareth Bale emphasizes that Real Madrid’s strategy isn’t to sit back and defend their lead but to press forward aggressively from the outset. “We want to attack, although we also need to defend well. We’re not yet in the final. We achieved victory in the Copa del Rey, and we aim to replicate that success in the Champions League,” stated the Welshman, as reported by Het Laatste Nieuws.
Manager Carlo Ancelotti may opt to field his potent offensive trio, the “BBC” comprising Bale, Karim Benzema, and Cristiano Ronaldo, simultaneously for the first time since early April. With their blistering pace and lethal finishing, Real Madrid’s attackers pose a significant threat on the counter-attack, a prospect that may unsettle the home supporters once again, as witnessed in the first leg.
