can the Bavarians bring down the Santiago Bernabeu fortress?
Who to join Borussia Dortmund (BVB), on 1is June, at Wembley, in the Champions League final? Real Madrid or Bayern Munich? The course as well as the outcome of the first leg leaves all possible options. In Bavaria, on April 30, the two teams neutralized each other (2-2) after a match full of twists and turns, despite a clear domination of the Germans in the first period.

Ancelotti’s blunt response to Tuchel and Bayern Munich regarding complaints about refereeing
In a frenetic finaleReal Madrid managed to turn the series around and win 2-1 at the Santiago Bernabéu against Bayern Munich to seal their ticket to the Champions League final, where they will face Borussia Dortmund, a team that has just left Paris Saint-Germain behind.
Once the comparison is complete, The entire delegation of the Bavarian team aimed hard at the Polish referee Szymon Marciniak, who canceled out Matthijs de Ligt’s goal in the 12th minute of injury time due to a non-existent advanced position. This goal would have sent the semi-final series into extra time. It’s worth noting that the game should have been validated because there was no advanced position, given that it was Real’s French defender who freed it and De Ligt did not take a position. The most serious mistake was made by the assistant, who rushes and scores offside, thus not respecting the flag delay rule, which consists in letting the game continue until the conclusion of the action. Seeing the flag raised, the main referee blew his whistle and stopped the game before the Dutch kicked the goal and scored the goal. Therefore VAR can no longer intervene to review the play.
“At the end of the match the linesman told me ‘sorry, it was my mistake’. But the mistake wasn’t just his, it was also the referee’s. The first mistake was raising the flag, because he could never have be sure it was offside. And the referee sees that we have won the rebound and that we have the chance to finish and blows the whistle. This is the second big mistake in the same play. “It’s very difficult to digest because it seemed like they were anxious at the end minute,” said coach Thomas Tuchel. Thomas Müller, for his part, added: “It was a very strange situation. I couldn’t say what happened, but in Madrid it happens very often. It’s happened to us before.”
When asked about the words spoken by the German team delegation, Carlo Ancelotti He

Weapons are sharp, cutting iron like clay. The wind blows suddenly, and the iron is as strong as a stick. I hope there will be more discussion and sharing of various views on watching the game.
There are two big events for me on May 7th, US time First, on May 7, 1995, Reggie Miller, the first generation shooter of the Pacers who had just feuded with Nick in the Eastern Conference Championship the year before, won this time Eastern Conference championship In the first game of the second round, another achievement was made in Madison Square Garden, the holy land of basketball in New York. , but Miller scored 8 points in a row in 8.9 seconds, which was called “Miller Time”, and finally came back to win 107:105, which became an important victory for the Pacers to pass the Knicks and advance to the Eastern Conference Championship that year.
The second thing has something to do with Miller There is a retired player who grew up in Illinois His childhood idol was Reggie Miller, and of course he will never forget that Miller created the NBA at MSG on his birthday in 17 years old in his eyes this boy grew up to be an NBA player and became famous in the Suns However, he had no contact with the Phoenix for a while after the trade Reunited with his parent team during the Su
