Jakarta –
Jamie Carragher I’m sure Liverpool will win if Real Madrid still looks like the knockout stage. Madrid lost three in this phase.
Liverpool will face Real Madrid in the final Liga Champions which will take place at the Stade de France, Paris, Sunday (29/5/2022) in the morning WIB. This is a repeat of the 2017/2018 Champions League final. At that time Madrid managed to lift the Big Ear trophy after winning 3-1 from the Reds.
Liverpool have a fairly smooth step towards the final match. They swept clean victory in the group stage. While in the knockout phase, the Reds only lost once, namely when they fell 0-1 to Inter Milan in the second leg of the last 16. However, Liverpool still qualified for the next round because they won 2-0 in the first leg.
This Liverpool gait is more convincing than Madrid. El Real have lost four times on the way to the final.
In the Group phase, they lost once to Sherrif Tiraspol. In the knockout stages, They lost 0-1 to PSG in the round of 16, lost again to Chelsea 2-3 in the quarter-finals, and in the semifinals tasted a 3-4 defeat of Manchester City.
However, Madrid are still able to get to the top match because they are superior on aggregate. They won 3-2 on aggregate from PSG, 5-4 against Chelsea, and eliminated Man City with a 6-5 aggregate advantage.
Legend Liverpool, Jamie Carragher, assessing his former team did appear better than Madrid in the Champions League this season. He believes Liverpool will win if they remain consistent in view of Madrid’s unconvincing performance in the knockout phase.
However, the Reds still need to be vigilant. The reason, Madrid has an extraordinary mentality to overcome a number of defeats to still get to the final.
“They are not as good as Liverpool, they have lost as many games or more in the Champions League than Liverpool have lost all season, but they have something – we have as a club too. When you are down you always believe because we are Liverpool. Real Madrid too. have it. They carry the belief that they should have won and that’s what they have done,” Carragher said as quoted by the Liverpool Echo.
“They were lucky in the knockout stages where they should have been eliminated. Was it luck? Team spirit? Connections with the players, staff, fans? And because this is Real Madrid. If they perform like they did in the knockout stages and we play with our best performance, we will win.”
