Three days later, the penultimate round of La Liga began as scheduled, with Real Madrid away to Real Sociedad.

With only the last three rounds left in the league, Real Sociedad is currently ranked 11th, with a gap of 7 points from the relegation zone and a 10-point threshold from the European zone.

In a few days' time, Real Madrid will face the second leg of the Champions League semi-final with Manchester City, and all things considered, Zidane has decided to let some of the main team rest and send substitutes to Real Sociedad's away game.

The striker is paired by a combination of Bale, Mayoral and Vazquez, with Ramos and Pepe at the back.

The game was played in light rain, and at the beginning of the game, Real Sociedad fought extremely fiercely, Real Madrid's players fell frequently, and the essence of the underworld was fully revealed.

After the first half of the game, neither side had a good chance to score, and the yellow card was 3 per team.

The second half continued the hot scene of the first half, and it was not until the 81st minute that Vazquez assisted Bale to score a goal.

The 1-0 score was also maintained until the end, and Real Madrid narrowly won an important 1-0 away win over Real Sociedad.

Real Madrid, who have three points, have reached 92 points, the first game and 11 points ahead of second-placed Atletico Madrid, and have successfully defended their title.

Back in Madrid, Real Madrid was welcomed by fans, who held up models of the La Liga trophy and fans held pictures of Jiang Ge and Zidane.

In the next two matches

, Atletico won 1-0 at home to Rayo Vallecano on the edge of the relegation zone, scoring by Griezmann, and this victory also secured their place as runners-up in the league.

Barca away to the desperate Real Betis and eventually won 2-0, and are likely to be third this season.

Four days later, the first match of the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals began, with

Atletico Madrid visiting the Allianz Arena to challenge Bundesliga overlords Bayern Munich.

The 70,000-capacity Allianz Arena was packed, and fans opened the game with red and white cardboard spelled out Bayern's motifs, putting psychological pressure on the visiting Atletico.

However, Simeone's team has never been stage frightened, not to mention this home atmosphere, even if the fight is not flinching, their leading big brother is a famous bandit.

Trailing by one goal away, Carlo Ancelotti pressed aggressively from the start of the game before the deadlock was finally broken in the 32nd minute by former Real Madrid player Xavi Alonso.

A few minutes later, striker Muller broke through Atletico's defence with the ball, past the last defender and scored the ball.

However, the referee quickly cancelled the goal because he knocked down central defender Jimenez with the ball before the shot, fouled first, and the goal was invalidated.

In the 10th minute of the second half, Torres headed back to Griezmann on the heel, who pushed the ball into the far corner.

Atletico pulled one back and scored a fatal away goal! The aggregate score was pulled to 1:2!

At the moment of Griezmann's goal, Ancelotti on the sidelines jumped to his feet in anger.

Next, Bayern's attack rose wave after wave, and the tenacious Atletico tried every means to defuse them one by one.

In the 75th minute, Bundesliga striker Lewandowski received

an inverted triangle pass from Vidal, and Lewandowski jumped high in the big box and forced Godin to score the ball!

2:1！ Bayern once again led Atletico at home, tied 2-2 on aggregate, but Atletico had an away goal and according to the away goals rule, Bayern had to score another goal to qualify.

Lewandowski rushed into the goal to pick up the ball, and Bayern's attack did not want to stop for a moment.

In the 85th minute, taking advantage of a counter-attack, Saul assisted center forward Torres to score a goal that was the killer of the game.

However, the referee quickly cancelled the goal, citing Torres as offside.

A goal on each side was cancelled and Bayern had a glimmer of hope.

Five minutes into stoppage time, the final score was still 2-1, and Atletico often succeeded in situations they wanted to hold.

With a 2:2 draw on aggregate, Atletico had an away goal, and according to the rules of away goals, Atletico narrowly beat Bayern Munich to advance and reach the Champions League final again after a year!

A day later, the second leg of the other Champions League semi-final kicked off, with Real Madrid hosting Manchester City.

In the first leg at the Etihad Stadium, thanks to goals from Sergio Aguero and Raheem Sterling, Manchester City beat Real Madrid 2-1 at home to grab the lead.

The only good thing for Real Madrid is to have an away goal, and theoretically, a 1-0 home win over Manchester City can advance by virtue of the advantage of more away goals.

However, Zidane did not disdain to count such small points, and he made it clear in his pre-match tactical meeting that he must win, score as many goals as possible, and not let the opponent score.

To this end, Zidane adjusted his formation for the first time, Real Madrid's starting formation is 4-2-3-1

: goalkeeper: Keylor Keylor Navas;

Defenders: Marcelo, Ramos, Pepe, Carvajal;

Back: Modric, Kroos;

Midfielders: Isco, Bale, Di Maria;

Forward: Jiang Ge.

Zidane changed his lineup on the spot, putting Jiang Ge alone in the front, setting up two backs to protect the backline, especially the two wings, and he obviously carefully studied the gains and losses of the last game.

Visiting Real Madrid away and Pellegrini returns to his hometown, he says this is where he dreams of setting sail and he wants to take Manchester City to greater heights.

City's starting 11 are

: goalkeeper: Joe Hart;

Defenders: Sania, Kompany, Otamendi, Krish;

Back: Fernando, Fernandinho;

Midfielders: Jesús Navas, Yaya Toure, David Silva;

Forward: Sergio Aguero.

Yaya Toure's timely return is obviously good news for Manchester City compared to the last game, with him, Manchester City's midfield intensity can be improved a lot, and he can also drag back and play.

In the JG Sports live broadcast room, Zhan Jun still invited his old partner Zhang Lu Zhang tonight.

"Is Manchester City going further or is the Champions League playing the Madrid derby again? This Champions League semi-final is full of highlights!

"Hehe, that's right, if this year's Champions League final is still a Madrid derby, Madrid is a notch higher than other cities in football!

The well-known city derby are Milan, Manchester City and London, and

since the Champions League was restructured, no city other than Madrid has had two teams in the Champions League final.

Zhang Lu snatched Zhan Jun's lines, and it was clear that Zhang Lu was more optimistic about Real Madrid's promotion.

"Yes, since the fall of Serie A, the Milan derby has not had much influence, and the same city derby that can still be seen now is the Madrid derby and the Manchester City derby, the latter wants to improve its influence, you have to see the performance of Manchester City."
