With the joy of reaching the top of the season for the first time, Manchester United boarded a flight to the Spanish capital Madrid.

April is an extremely difficult time for Manchester United.

According to the schedule, Manchester United will participate in 7 games this month, not only will the number of games be large, but the opponents are also not weak.

The match against Liverpool was Manchester United's debut in April. They will also face Real Madrid in the Champions League, encountering Newcastle, Arsenal, Blackburn and Tottenham in the Premier League.

Especially the beginning of the month to the middle of the month, to be precise, from April 5 to April 16, Manchester United will face Liverpool, Real Madrid, Newcastle and Arsenal in a row.

Among them, Liverpool is the top five teams in the Premier League, Real Madrid is the top of La Liga, Newcastle and Arsenal are the third and second teams in the Premier League, each of which is very strong.

This is undoubtedly a real death schedule for Manchester United. Whether it is a mistake in the Champions League or a mistake in the league, it may cause Manchester United to miss a championship. The worst result is a double-line defeat.

……………………

British media are paying great attention to the match between Manchester United and Real Madrid.

The Premier League team that performed well in the Champions League at the beginning of the season, Liverpool failed in the first stage of the group stage, and Arsenal and Newcastle failed to make it through the second stage of the group stage. Currently, Manchester United is the only one who is fighting for the honor of the Premier League.

The quarter-finals, La Liga and Serie A are undoubtedly the big winners, each with three teams. In La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​this pair of superstars plus the Bat Legion Valencia, while in Serie A, it is Milan's double champions plus the class dominant Juventus, and the other team is Manchester United from the Eredivisie.

The eight teams, except Valencia, are all teams with quite outstanding results in the Champions League. Real Madrid is the top nine-time Champions League, which can be called the first team in the European competition. Real Madrid has permanently saved a Saint-Berle Cup, and Manchester United won 4 Big Ear Cups. Inter Milan, Juventus, like Manchester United, have won twice, and Barcelona, ​​the worst, has also tasted the taste of winning the championship.

The last team Valencia, also the team that has performed extremely well in the Champions League in recent years, once achieved a record of reaching the finals for two consecutive years at the beginning of the new century (1999-2000 and 2000-2001 seasons). Now, under the leadership of La Liga champion coach Benitez, they have once again entered the Champions League quarter-finals, with the goal of winning the Big Ear Cup for the first time in the team's history.

Manchester United and Real Madrid meet in the Champions League quarterfinals, which is definitely the focus of this series of knockout matches.

The ninth Champions League victory in last season allowed Real Madrid to attract countless fans around the world, and Manchester United is also famous for its triple-champion four years ago. These two teams are definitely one of the most popular teams in world football today. At the same level, there may be only Real Madrid in Serie A, and the rest of the teams are slightly inferior, even the Bundesliga overlord Bayern and Serie A top Juventus.

Now, one of the two most successful teams in the world today is destined to be the winner to continue in the Champions League, which is undoubtedly an extremely cruel showdown.

It is precisely this peak showdown that attracted the attention of the whole world. When Manchester United flew to Madrid, sports media from all over the world gathered in this famous European city.

It is not only media reporters who gathered to Madrid, but also fans. The two clubs with fans all over the world are still in the Champions League quarterfinals, or in the Bernabeu Stadium, one of the largest stadiums in Europe, which naturally attracted fans from both sides.

According to relevant institutions, during the match between Manchester United and Real Madrid, more than 100,000 fans from both sides will come to Madrid from all over the world.

Although most of these fans cannot enter the Bernabeu Stadium to watch the game, many fans come with the idea of ​​a pilgrimage.

……………………

The attendance rate of the Bernabeu Stadium has not been too high, and it is almost 100% terrifying per game occupancy rate that is completely incomparable to Manchester United. However, that is because the number of attendances in games with some ordinary teams is low. At the same time, the capacity of more than 80,000 people in the Bernabeu has also lowered the attendance rate of one of the world's top stadiums.

However, when this stadium encountered a strong opponent in Real Madrid, its attendance rate was very terrifying. Manchester United is undoubtedly the strong opponent in the minds of "Mei Lingge".

According to the news obtained before the game, this game will be full, with more than 81,000 fans coming to the stands to watch the game, only a very small number of whom are fans of the away team Manchester United, and they are also assigned to the most corner area.

When Manchester United arrived at the Bernabeu Stadium, Real Madrid fans at the scene gave them a warning. The players were deafening booed when they got off the bus, but this was already accustomed to Manchester United.

After arriving in the locker room, everyone packed up their things and, led by captain Roy Keane, went directly to the Bernabeu Stadium for the final pre-match training.

At this time, the huge stands were already crowded with people. The scene and the momentum were extremely spectacular.

This is a bigger super stadium than Old Trafford!

"Yin, welcome to the Bernabeu!" Real Madrid left-back Robert Carlos walked quickly towards Yin Jun and stretched out his hand from a distance.

Because he played in the same game during the World Cup, Carlos had a good impression of Yin Jun. He even recommended Yin Jun to Florentino at the beginning, but in the end, Yin Jun joined Manchester United instead of Real Madrid for various reasons.

"Thank you." Yin Jun also smiled and shook hands with him. Yin Jun always respected the Brazilian who gave him a free kick skill.

"You've performed great this season, but it's not easy to score another goal here tonight." Carlos smiled.

According to the starting list announced by Manchester United before the game, Yin Jun will be Manchester United's starting right forward in this game, and just faces Carlos, who is Real Madrid's left back.

Yin Jun smiled and said, "I know your strength, but I am full of confidence in myself."

Carlos was a little surprised at Yin Jun's answer, but then said, "Very good, let's compete well later!"

Yin Jun nodded and said, "Okay."

After the two shook hands again, Carlos ran back to the team's training area.

Yin Jun saw Ronaldo from afar, and the Brazilian waved at him, saying hello.
