The city of Cardiff in Wales will witness the finals of this year's champions league final between Real Madrid of spain the defending champions and their italian counterparts Juventus . The match will be played in a retractable stadium to forestall saddists from sending a drone to cause the kind of mayhem that happened in Manchester recently
It will be best quality of football on display if you consider the pedigree of the teams the 2 sides beat to get to the finals.
Real Madrid will be looking to make history as no team has ever retained the champions league and nothing will please the current world footballer of the year Christiano Ronaldo more than setting that record. He has won the European cup, the spanish league title and this will not only be the icing on the cake but a record setting and breaking season if they are able to pull it off . Its on record that Ronaldo earns $470,000 dollars about 195.7 bitcoins in a week
Juventus on the other hand has got Gigi Buffon probably the best keeper in the world. at 39 years of age he is the captain of both Juventus and the Azzuri's the national team of Italy . They also have Giorgio Chiellini who recently bagged his MBA and a dangerous striker who is regarded as heir apparent to Maradona in Dybala
You cant take away anything from the Galacticos as the big stars of real madrid are called. in Sergio Ramos, Marcello, Gareth Bale, Toni Kroos , Isco and Benzema, they should beat any team on paper but history does not favour them in the sense that no team has ever retained the trophy . Will Real Madrid break the jinx?
Let me know your thoughts
I think the most annoying and boring quote on football wins also tomorrow:
The offens wins games, the defense wins titles. Juve has the strength to defend a CR7 and Co. I see them a bit nearber by the cup.
Hopefully it will be an interesting game. Normally I stay away at the CL because there will be every game even. Same clubs against each other with few fans - without football tourism.
