LUCKY MERENGUE?
From Alisson to Mendy: The list of 'sung' that have favored Madrid in Europe
A great Real Madrid defeated Liverpool 2-5 at Anfield and put a foot and a half in the quarterfinals. However, the meringues were once again benefited by a specific error by the rival goalkeeper
The errors of the guardametas rival begin to be usual in the European commitments of the Real Madrid. It is time was Alisson Becker the protagonist of the film, when it gave badly a pass inside the area that finished hitting in the body of Vinicius Júnior and colándose inside the arch, 'giving' the so much of the equality to the group merengue. Although this error practically sentenced the eliminatory, is not the first time that occurs against the ones of Chamartín.
Although Thibaut Courtois also did of his in the first minutes of the meeting, the true is that this type of errors always occur in profit of the madridistas, being four of them crucial in the last 'orejonas' that lucen in the vitrinas of Santiago Bernabéu.
The most remembered is the one of Loris Karius in the final precisely between these two teams. The put did two 'sung' monumental in key moments of the meeting, facilitating to the whites his thirteenth League of Champions in 2018. First it left him the balloon served to Karim Benzema with his own hands for 'open the tin' of the party and afterwards, when the commitment found 1-2, could not contain a very far shot of Gareth Bleat that it finished colándose between his hands. Since it has not gone back to be the same and goes of team in team in Europe without attaining stability.
To this adds him the one of Sven Ulreich, the exportero of the Bayern Munich with that began everything. The German, that substituted to a lesionado Manuel Neuer, topó with the Madrid in the turn of an eliminatory key in Santiago Bernabéu. When the meeting found equalised 2-2, slipped of odd form when receiving a pass backwards and finished leaving the balloon to empty door for a Benzema that, as always, took advantage of the opportunity to send the balloon at the end of the network.
The fourteenth
Finally they are the simultaneous errors of Gianluigi Donnarumma and Edouard Mendy in 2022. In the eighth of final, a very upper Paris Saint-Germain had the eliminatory controlled with a 0-2 in favour and 30 remaining minutes in the commitment of turn. However, the Italian 'slept' with the balloon in his feet and left that Benzema him presionara, forcing the error and putting to the whites in the marker (1-2) that would give start to a traced back epic that would classify them to the following round (3-2).
Already in the chambers would measure in front of Chelsea in Stamford Bridge. The for then valid champion had everything to surpass the round but the put French played a terrible pass for Antonio Rüdiger that took advantage of the omnipresente Benzema to beat the goal and like this put one lose more on the coffin 'blue'. Nevertheless, the whites had to row slope up in the Bernabéu to achieve his classification. One that had not been possible without the 'sung' in English territory.
