In tonight’s highly anticipated Champions League semi-final second leg, either Bayern Munich or Real Madrid will secure a spot in the final. The first leg saw Real Madrid take a slight advantage with a solitary goal, courtesy of Karim Benzema.
Karim Benzema, the former Lyon player, leads the Real Madrid attack alongside the formidable duo of Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale. Real Madrid has been striving for their 10th Champions League title since 2002.
On the other side, Bayern Munich is also determined to claim victory. The Bavarian team is banking on finding last year’s form of Franck Ribéry, who has faced mixed fortunes since missing out on the Ballon d’Or. Ribéry, along with Robben and Müller, is set to start the match.
The line-ups for the match are as follows:
Bayern Munich: Neuer – Dante, Ribéry, Mandzukić, Robben, Boateng, Lahm (C), Müller, Alaba, Schweinsteiger, Kroos
Real Madrid: Casillas (C) – Carvajal, Pepe, Ramos, Coentrão – Di Maria, Xabi Alonso, Modric – Bale, Benzema, Cristiano Ronaldo
It promises to be a thrilling encounter as these two football giants battle it out for a spot in the final.
