jamescross:
yes 4 4 2, but instead of a diamond four zidane chose, he should go with RM CM CM LM, carvajal, varane, ramos, marcelo; lucas, kross/kovacic, modric, asensio; bale and ronaldo

is it just me but i once felt the 1st leg was coming too early for us now i can't wait for the 2nd

Spot on.. I just hope Zidane sees this.

you sound scared. Psg will score at home but that doesn't mean we won't score. The main thing is to make sure we are good and above them in aggregate.

Who were Real Madrid's six heroes of the victory over PSG?

Real Madrid needed a result against Paris Saint-Germain to save their season and they got it, thanks to some of the usual suspects and thanks to some unlikely heroes too.


From Cristiano Ronaldo to Nacho, these are the six main stars of the 3-1 victory.

Cristiano Ronaldo: He was decisive

When everything is at stake, Cristiano Ronaldo delivers.

With his brace, he was the main star of the evening and he now has 11 goals in this season's Champions League, proving he is the man for the big occasions.

Marcelo: Unstoppable

It looked like Marcelo might have to stop, when he suffered an early injury, but he was able to continue and every time he advanced down the left flank he caused havoc in the PSG defence.

He capped his performance off with a goal, one which puts Real Madrid firmly in the driving seat.

Marco Asensio: The game changer

The youngster was brought on with just over 10 minutes left and he helped to change the match with his speed, his ability to evade defenders and his link-up play.

Zinedine Zidane: Magisterial

He took some brave decisions, most notable leaving out Gareth Bale in place of Isco, but they paid off.

When the team then started struggling in the second half, he made some astute substitutions and helped push Los Blancos towards glory.

Keylor Navas: The saviour

It should not be forgotten that Keylor Navas made a vitally important save when the scores were level at 1-1.

Had Kylian Mbappe scored with that attempt then the outcome could have been so different, but the Costa Rican saved the day.

Nacho: Effective

He had to play at right-back against Neymar due to Dani Carvajal's suspension, but Nacho delivered, as he always does.

It was a tough test, but he passed it.

Great midfield combo of Modric and Kroos they were hot hot... And besides I think Isco should learn from vasqez simplicity.. The guy is just too good and play with a total maturity.

isco showed he wasn't a team player. I hope we go with 4-4-2 again in the second leg. Bale in place of benzema, asensio in place of isco and Vazquez also starting. We need to out class psg in that midfield.

Very true..... Casemiro is becoming too slow this days.

He would have done more for that rabiot goal.


Modric is a blessing. What a great player he is.

casemiro f**ked up real good. Kovacic might get the nod in the second leg.

Modric at his age will still command a high fee in this current market. Dude is not only a blessing but a joy to watch.

Kroos is injured

you want to hear something funny? Pogba might be one his way to Madrid next season.

Madrid not interested in Pogba


Despite reports that Real Madrid are monitoring Paul Pogba, the Manchester United star is not a target for the Blancos, according to Sky Sports.

The French midfielder has seen his form dip over recent weeks, leading to speculation that he could be eyeing a move away from Old Trafford in the summer.

if he comes cheap and would stay on the bench then no problem. i doubt if zidane wants him, is it isco that is already on the bench that pogba wants to bench when he can't even play 8. allegri show this and pushed him to number 10 and pls perez should know we have kovacic

o punctuation mark. hazard is 'messi' overrated even dybala atimes I wonder why they rate him with messi but trust journalists.but hazard is still top ten best footballers in the world.

as for pogba he has already made the big mistake of his career moving back to united atleast he has got his revenge making united pay £90m for their mistake.

Miremoses1:

nobody will pay that kind of money for Pogba highest will be £70m and that is because of inflation and his involvement in France national team.

Real Madrid face four games in ten days


Now that Paris Saint-Germain have been beaten in the first leg of their Champions League tie, Real Madrid can cast the return leg out of their minds for a busy period of LaLiga fixtures.


A top-four finish is far from secured for Zinedine Zidane's side and they have four games in just ten days to look forward to as they try and guarantee domestic qualification for next year's European competition.

First up is a trip to Real Betis, who caused the first crisis of the season when winning 1-0 at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu in September, after which Los Blancos travel to Leganes.

February 24 sees Alaves come to Madrid for a Saturday afternoon kick-off with another midweek game shortly after, away to Espanyol.

It is true that three of these sides currently reside in the bottom half but Espanyol and Alaves are both fighting to stay out of a relegation battle, with Betis and Leganes both on good form and ready for what could be called the biggest game of what is left of their season.

After this spell, Real can enjoy a week's break before welcoming neighbours Getafe to the Bernabeu just three days before they are due in Paris for the return of their Champions League clash.

Sniper in training today

This place don turn to an extension of marcasite. No creativity at all. Copy and paste thread. Smh

Looks like we are playing against a team that gave us badluck in the start of the season. We need a win away from home and then dismantle leganes in weekday.

that match could have ended in malaga's favor, or better still a draw. That red card(against malaga) was uncalled for

the old man is full of jealousy. He didn't say pim when barka robbed psg last season.
I don't blame him, his not making headline since he moved out. Maybe trying to bash Madrid will bring him to the limelight again.
