The Real Madrid coach, Zinedine Zidane, demonstrated great confidence after the withdrawal of the draw for the semi-finals in the Champions League. 'White' pulled Manchester City on the penultimate stage in the race and the legendary Frenchman set his team the favorite.
'It is very clear that Real Madrid is always a favorite. And this is for the game against Manchester City in the semi-finals of the Champions League. And yet, City is a great team and I don't want anyone to hear that I have an easy opponent. Many said Wolfsburg's cure to overcome, but you saw what happened.'
'I see City as a very strong opponent as strong as the other two that already have removed, Roma and Wolfsburg. The best thing is that we're going to play the second leg at home and this battle is going to be very balanced.', said Zidane at a press conference on Friday afternoon.
The last time these two teams met in the group stage of the Champions League in the season of 2012/2013. Then in the first round of the tournament, 'Whites' won with 2:0 at the Bernabeu Stadium and the other match in Manchester ended with 1:1.
