Champions League

Barca's path in 14/15 wasn't even a particularly tough one. There's no comparison between that and what Madrid have faced this year.

17-18 was a tougher path for Madrid but still not as much as this year's.

We've had pretty much the toughest draw in CL-history mate

And biggest luck Chelsea club got destabilized because owner is Russian?

Can't get a break but gifted two penalties by City and Walker injuries in both legs(you never managed to score a goal with him on pitch) and Donnarumma disasterclass?

Not saying you are lucky overall, things have evened out. Tough draw with some things gone in your favour.

Time to face a team at full strength now.

 

[Rassvet]

City > Bayern imo but PSG was better that year than this one, true.

Chelsea 21-22 is a much better cup team than 17-18 Juve as well imo. Barca beat that Juve team pretty easily in the group stage and Spurs battered them over both legs in the first knockout round but somehow still lost.

"Time to face a team at full strength now", what is that even supposed to mean?

We played PSG and Chelsea at full strength, the only noticeable miss was for City in the return leg(Walker).

You are basing your whole "theory" about one injury.

We have been facing the best sides at full strength or close to it the entire way.

Chelsea didn't drop off in cup competitions despite the off-field issues imo, they were tough the entire way.

Chelsea dropped form in league as news broke out club had to find new owner. And walker got the injury in the first leg and was missing there as well.

Cool, City missed one player so i guess we faced PSG, Chelsea and City-reserves now.

No, we played full strength sides almost the entire way.

 

[Morten]

City have basically unlimited money anyway, so their fault they don't have a good backup at right back.

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

Bayern 17/18 > City 21/22
PSG 17/18 >>> PSG 21/22
Juventus 17/18 = Chelsea 17/18

You mean Chelsea 21/22? They are way better than Juve 17/18, they became a lot weaker after the ucl loss.

You guys deservedly in final. Just don't understand why you find yourself unlucky key midfielder did not get seriously injured in last minutes of the season as to not be eligible to play CL final.

Mbappe also scored two offside goals which were very close i think, Paris could have already ended Madrid's cl path in February

Chelsea leading 3-0, out of nothing Modric plays the pass of the season + Rodrygo with a perfect volley.

City at home had chances to score 6-7 goals while Real scored 3 with 5 chances or something.

Real at home was class though, especially in second half.

Let's see what Kloppo does.

Also Alonso goal super close.

Also Alonso goal super close.

yeah a lot of luck but also terrific mentality to come back all the time.

Or Chelsea. Where is the freaking logic in that they completely trashed Madrid away almost whole regular 90 minutes but played the way they did at freaking Stamford bridge?
Real definitely benefited from the upset within the club caused by the russian ban in UK.

"Deserve" is meaningless in football anyway, either you win or don't.

Though, speaking of "luck", you may take a look at Liverpools draw to the final, the entire football-world would be crying if we got that draw to the final, but since its Liverpool nobody cares.

What a surprise that the Barca hater tries to convince us that beating a:

Juve 14/15, Italian Champions, one game from treble (only team to beat RM in a CL KO tie in 5 years between 2014 and 2018)
Pep's Bayern
PSG (one of the stronger PSG sides of the last 10 years after 17/18 and 16/17)
City (league champions)

is "not a particularly tough one".

Shameless.
