Football. ua presents the first match of the main stage of the Champions League, which will take place on the 22nd evening, at 22:00 Kyiv time.

As part of the third round of the main stage of the UEFA Champions League 2024/25, we are faced with a repeat of the Champions League final of the last season, Real Madrid - Borussia Dortmund.

Real Madrid - Borussia Dortmund Tuesday, 22 June, 22:00. Santiago Bernabeu, Madrid, Spain. Referee: Istvan Kovac (Romania). .

Just recently we played back-to-back with Real and Borussia D. And we didn’t just play, but fought for victory in the final match of the Champions League for the 2023/24 season. Anyone who remembers the two can say with eloquence that the “Dzhmeli” did not compromise with the “Vershkov” in any way, and in the first half they looked much better for Carlo Ancelotti’s team. What do you expect about the release of Dortmund striker Karima Adejemi for the evening with Thibaut Courtois. Ale closer to the end of the main hour, the class of the “royal” club took its. Real "

Since then, in Borussia there have been a lot of changes and it is not a fact that in the very near future. . Behind him, Dortmund look extremely unstable. Unprecedented victories over the outsiders of the German Bundesliga and the defeat of Stuttgart (1:5), which resulted in the loss of the match in the tournament table of the German championship, do not give any further relief to the Dzhmeli players in advance. and good luck with the match against Real Madrid. We also need to respect what Borussia was deprived of by the leaders of last season, which was a small contribution to the successful campaign of Lisa champions: Mats Hummels and Niklas Fullkrug.

Borussia is still going to have a great time in the Champions League, as strange as it sounds. Here the team of Nuri Shahin achieved two hard victories. So, their opponents were far from being of the top level, but still two teams from the outer world 10:1 are enemies. First, the team fought with the international representative of the Belgian League Jupile Brugge (3:0), after which they defeated the respected champion of Scotland Celtic (7:1).

Due to injuries, Borussia D will not be able to help: Karim Adejemi, Ian Coutu, Julien Duranville and Giovanni Reyna, and Niklas Sule will also have to play a part in the pits.

It’s impossible to say that real this season has started, so that it’s even more impressive. Thus, the team ahead of Barcelona is ahead of the Spanish La Lisa by three points, and the game of the “verticals” deprives them of plenty of nutrition. In each of the matches of the current campaign, in addition to the clashes with Valladolid (3:0) and Espanyol (4:1), Ancelotti’s team did not look better than their rivals, but still got a positive result, as from the end new match of the Spanish championship with.

In Liza, the “royal” club also does not oppose the champions. In the first round, Madrid achieved an extremely important victory over another representative of the German championship - Stuttgart (3:1). Meanwhile, in another round of the Champions League, Real Madrid suffered from a first setback in the tournament. Carlo Ancelotti's team sensationally lost to the French Lille on the road (0:1).

We won’t be able to predict the ongoing scandals surrounding one of the main stars of the Blancos, Kylian Mbappe.. The Frenchman has not yet brought as much violence to the football field as there is noise beyond its borders. Here there are a few bits about alcoholism, a lot of accusations, and thoughts about how, with so many stars, the team has become a much smaller head coach..

In the infirmary of Real Madrid, David Alaba and Dani Carvajal are no longer in the hospital, and Braim Diaz is also missing from the hospital..

Zagalom, Real Madrid's rank is significantly higher than Borussia D's. The magic of the Champions League is always with the “tops”. Victory Ancelotti's team is ready to win in recent matches, as it seems in class. However, we need to respect that the Madrid “sports car” has been running wild on the track for a long time, which can speed up the team of Nuri Shahin. Still, Dortmund has more football than the smart Celta and Alaves. Can Borussia Zdivuvat Santiago Bernabeu and take away one great ball from Madrid At this meal you will be able to receive confirmation later in the evening on Tuesday.

Coaches say Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti: “This season we have more difficulties with football and ball control, because we do not have enough strength due to the characteristics of the game in the enclosed space. The vertical line is suitable for us, but we focus on the shortest zakhisti, as we have been doing since last season. We are trying to give the team more value.

Borussia has been improving over the past season through a change of coach and the departure of some players. But they have the same idea, they work well at the same time and simmer collectively. Dortmund is a powerful rival, they recently played in the finals of the Champions League." This is very important for my boys. All this will happen in one day again at the final, I am sure, with Borussia Dortmund, and then we will have to turn it into positive energy..

I thought that now our drawings would be overrun, then after the match I was simply devastated. It was unacceptable, so it would happen another time, if we were so close. The first time I was a driver, and the second time I was a coach. Everyone who entrusts me to know that winning the Champions League was and will be forfeited, my greatest joy as a footballer, and now as a coach. I hope that one day such a chance will appear in me again."
