Seven Crowns

In addition to Lu Wenbin, the other three teams that have advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League this season are Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund.

Only La Liga and Bundesliga have two seats in the Champions League semi-finals, and there may be two national derbies in the semi-finals.

However, no such thing happened in the final draw.

On April 12th, the 2012/2013 UEFA Champions League semi-final draw, Barcelona drew Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid drew their opponent Dortmund in the group stage.

Real Madrid double-killed Dortmund in the group stage, and there should be no surprises in the semifinals.

Only Barcelona and Bayern Munich look evenly matched, with a point of contention.

After the draw, on April 14 and April 20, Real Madrid played the 31st and 32nd rounds of La Liga. Real Madrid won all of them and continued to lead La Liga.

On April 24, in the first round of the UEFA Champions League semi-final, Real Madrid traveled to Germany to challenge Dortmund away.

Although Dortmund exploded amid the cheers of the home fans at the Westfalenstadion and scored 4 goals frantically, they still failed to win the game in the end.

Relying on Lu Wenbin's hat-trick and Ronaldo's goal, Real Madrid drew 4-4 with Dortmund at the Westfalenstadion and retreated.

In the other semi-final, Bayern Munich also scored four goals at home.

The difference is that Barcelona failed to score a goal and was slaughtered by Bayern Munich 4-0. The second round was already more ominous.

Because the UEFA Champions League semi-finals did not win away, after returning to the domestic league, in the 33rd round of La Liga on April 27, the Madrid derby, Mourinho carried out a certain rotation.

Even so, Real Madrid relied on Lu Wenbin's two goals to beat Atletico Madrid 2-1 in the away game and continued to lead the standings.

It is gratifying that Barcelona finally encountered a sniper attack in this round, was tied by Athletic Bilbao, and fell behind Real Madrid in points.

Subsequently, Real Madrid ushered in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final.

The score of 4-4 in the first round was not without a chance for Dortmund.

Although the Bernabéu stadium is difficult to play,

But as long as Dortmund can beat Real Madrid by one goal, they will advance to the final and have the opportunity to compete for the Champions League this season.

For Real Madrid, an away tie and 4 away goals is the biggest advantage.

Even if they don't score and keep the 0-0 score until the end of the game, Real Madrid will advance to the final with the advantage of away goals.

Therefore, after the start of the second round of the semi-finals on April 30, Real Madrid resolutely shrank their defense at their home court and played Dortmund's defensive counterattack.

Dortmund had to press heavily on offense because they had to score and win to have a chance.

In the Bernabeu, after losing Westfalen's home court advantage, Dortmund's state is not as good as the first round, and Real Madrid is in better state than the first round.

After playing for more than ten minutes, Dortmund has not been able to break through Real Madrid's goal, but Real Madrid took advantage of a counterattack opportunity to open the scoring first.

In the 17th minute, Khedira cut off Gotze's ball and stabbed it to Alonso.

Alonso made a long pass and accurately found Ronaldo who was advancing from the wing.

Ronaldo cut inside after dribbling the ball from the wing, drawing the attention of two Dortmund defenders. But Ronaldo didn't shoot, but crossed the middle.

Lu Wenbin rushed up, grabbed the ball before defender Subotic volleyed the ball non-stop, and kicked the ball into the goal.

Goalkeeper Weidenfeller fought hard to save, but still failed to touch the ball, and finally could only watch the ball hit the net.

Real Madrid led Dortmund 1-0 at home and 5-4 on aggregate. Dortmund was forced to a dead end and could only continue to press the crazy attack.

In the 26th minute, Dortmund got a pretty good chance.

Lewandowski ran out of space in the penalty area, and Royce also passed the ball in a timely manner. As a result, Lewandowski actually flew the ball under the interference of Ramos.

At that moment, the sighs of the few Dortmund fans at the Bernabeu could be heard on the TV.

I didn't grasp my chance, and Dortmund was hit hard again.

In the 32nd minute, Özil broke through from the side and shot inward. The ball was saved by Weidenfeller.

But it just landed in front of Benzema. Benzema didn't stop the ball, and directly volleyed the ball back to the goal.

Weidenfeller, who fell to the ground because of the ball thrown by Ozil, was unable to get up to prevent the goal.

Real Madrid led Dortmund 2-0 at home and 6-4 on aggregate.

Dortmund needs to score three goals and not let Real Madrid continue to score in order to eliminate Real Madrid and advance to the final.

The difficulty is getting higher and higher.

However, no matter how difficult it is, you still have to keep fighting.

Before the end of the first half, Dortmund finally pulled back a point.

This time it was Gotze who dribbled the ball into the penalty area and was tackled by Pepe to get a penalty. Although Pepe tried his best to argue that he was shoveling on the line of the penalty area, it should not be considered a foul in the penalty area, but The referee insisted on giving Dortmund a penalty.

The penalty kick was taken by Lewandowski. He kicked the ball into the dead corner. Casillas really couldn't do anything about this high-quality penalty.

Dortmund finally regained a point and saw the hope of life again.

Not long after that, the first half was over.

After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Dortmund continued to attack and Real Madrid continued to defend.

Dortmund's aggressive attack inevitably exposed large gaps in the backcourt.

Although they had already paid great attention to the defense against Lu Wenbin, loopholes continued to appear.

This is the flaw of using offensive tactics, and it cannot be solved by relying on a few backcourt players to concentrate on marking Lu Wenbin.

In the 59th minute, Real Madrid got the chance to counterattack by stealing the ball. Lu Wenbin dribbled the ball forward in the midfield. Defender Subotic and midfielder Kyle appeared in front of Lu Wenbin, trying to block Lu Wenbin's way together.

But Lu Wenbin didn't get entangled with them, and after running away from an angle, he directly kicked a long pass to transfer.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who advanced from the wing, received a pass from Lu Wenbin, faced a full-back's defense, easily broke through and cut inside, and then succeeded in a low shot from the corner of the penalty area.

Real Madrid lead Dortmund 3-1 at home and 7-5 on aggregate.

At this time, it was only a little over 30 minutes before the end of the game.

In the 74th minute, Lu Wenbin extended the total score to 8-5 with another free kick, completely killing the game.

Subsequently, Lu Wenbin was replaced, and Dortmund scored another goal in the 87th minute, but it was already difficult to save the defeat.

In the end, Real Madrid advanced to the Champions League final by beating Dortmund with a total score of 4-4 in the first leg, 4-2 and 8-6 in the second leg.

In the other semi-final, Barcelona, ​​who returned to their home court, still seemed to have not recovered from the 0-4 away defeat in the first leg, and was beaten by Bayern Munich in a bloody 3-0 at the Nou Camp. The total score of -7 was disastrously out.

Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have met in the Champions League final for two consecutive seasons, and moved the stage of the European derby to the Champions League final, staged the most peak matchup in Europe.
