YOU NEVER WALK ALONE .

As Liverpool faced Real Madrid the reigning champions of Europe, many thought that the Red Army led by Mo Salah , Bobby Firmini and Sadio Mane will be enough to take down Sergio Ramos and co. But little did they knew what was waiting for them at Kiev for the final showdown.

Liverpool were the most dominant force in this edition of UCL bagging a record of 41 goals Salah (11), Mane (10), Firmino(11) and the only team behind them were none other than Real Madrid scoring 33 goals with Ronaldo topping the charts (15), Karim Benzema(5) goals.

Hosted at NSC Olimpiyskiy, Kiev the game started with a mishap when Liverpool lost their most in-form player Mohammed Salah because of a tackle by Ramos and failed to continue the match with a pain in shoulder and was replace by Adam Lallana at the 39th minute of the game. Maybe this was the moment when the tables turned and the lady luck blessed Madrid again.

His absence left the attack in-complete and Real Madrid kept on pressing Liverpool, with the rising pressure Liverpool’s goalkeeper started loosing nerves under pressure, that’s when Karius made a clumsy mistake gifting Madrid the first goal of the match and Benzema putting the ball back of the net 1-0 for Real Madrid.

Liverpool were not ready to go unanswered and Sadio Mane took the charge of the game and equalized in just 4 minutes from the restart of the game. Meanwhile Ronaldo was no where to be found and Real Madrid were been pushed back just when Gareth Bale was introduced in place of Isco. And boy oh boy the Welshman man ripped Liverpool apart scoring a brace.

Overhead kick from a cross by Marcelo.

Giving Real Madrid a healthy 2-1 lead and then a screamer by Bale which took Karius by surprise and faltered to deny the ball from going in the back of the net making the game 3-1.

Real Madrid showed the world why they are called the “KING OF EUROPE” winning the title for 13th time and also 3 times in a row after Ajax and Bayern Munich. They displayed their Brilliance and Experience in the champions league after suffering a humiliating campaign in Copa Del Ray and La Liga.

Real Madrid are up against their city rivals Athletico Madrid in Uefa Super Cup. While Mohammed Salah is set to miss the world cup with a shoulder injury a huge blow for Egypt, but he (Salah)has vowed to return to take on Russia, Saudi Arabia and Uruguay for the world cup group stage matches.

Best Performer of  the night:

Undoubtedly Gareth Bale who scored a brace leading Real Madrid to claim the title for 3rd consecutive season also was crowned the man of the match.

.

Worst performer of the night:

Well it’s a harsh to blame Karius, but he will like to forget the night and what happened in Kiev. Making two grave mistake or the game would have took a different turn. But the captain of Liverpool Henderson, Lovren and Van Dijk defended their team-mate and backed him by putting the blame on the complete team, Well that’s how you define “You Never Walk Alone”.

Also Liverpool fans displayed the most beautiful a part of the game supporting the team till the 90th min plus 3 mins of extra time. What a brilliant display of sportsman ship also gave a standing ovation to Dani Carvajal when he was stretched off the field because of an injury.

Well some Fans needs to learn from them surely!

In the End.

What Went Wrong For Barcelona Against Levante!

What could have went wrong for a team who had already claimed the league and with the season about to wrap up with just two games remaining to fight for the unbeaten streak? well the answer lied at Ciutat de València where Barcelona met Levante for the very last time of this season. Levante UD’s coach “Francisco José López Fernández” was blessed with Valverde resting the all time greatest Lionel Messi and also the absence of Samuel Umtiti and Gerard Pique at the backline, leaving valverde with  just the option of playing Yerry Mina and Thomas Varmaelen.  Now looking forward to the front line of Levante with Emmanuel Boateng and Roger Marti upfront, combintion of young blood , pace and passion against relatively unsettled and slow Mina and Varmaelen. Levante opened the game at just 9 minutes when Luis Morales produced an individual spark and passed the ball to Boateng, who did’t fail to find the net against the german keeper who did manage to get a hand on the ball but failed to keep it out of reach of the Ghana forward.

Now coming to the match facts!

With the traditional 4-3-3 and barcelona playing full backs higher up the pitch the backline was left with just Mina and Varmaelen, even Busi who plays as the pivot between the two center-backs was not present until the second goal was scored. After the 2nd goal Busi was put into much deep midfield role to help out the backline, until then Coutinho found the net with a brilliant curler from out-side the box. Varmaelen was substituted with Gerard Pique with a hamstring injury and the half time ended with 2-1.

The start of second half was even more disastrous when again Bracelona were caught in the lighting fast counter attack and very soon Enis Bardhi and Boateng found the net at 46′ and 49′ minutes of the game.

Look at the images above, Marti passing the ball to Enis Bardhi with Busi not marking bardhi who was in the danger zone of barcelona and as a result boom! a goal by Bradhi.

A miss pass by alba resulting in a counter-attack by morales with no one marking Bardhi who was making a run and scored with perfection.

Semedo out of position resulting Luna absolutely free to make a run, while alba again failing to keep up with boateng, mina too slow and gaveup later boateng scored a textboo

Nelseniho the name given by ‘cules’ to the Portuguese full back Nelson Semedo, had a below par game and often strayed out of position. With the 5th goal scored the game was done and dusted then when Phileppe Coutinho decided to take the game on and score his first ever hattrick in the balugrana colours. Later in the game Suarez scored from the penalty to make the scoreline 5-4 with Barcelona still trailing.

With errors all-over the season costing the UCL campaign and now the unbeaten streak, what changes do you guys think Barcelona needs to overcome the European crisis? Comment down below.
