Real Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund Champions League Semis

Real Madrid needs to win by three goals to advance to the UEFA Champions League final for the first time in 11 years, and Borussia Dortmund only needs to hold on to the result they got in the first leg.  The second semifinal leg will be this Tuesday at 14:45 PM ET at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

Madrid suffered from Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski, who scored four times in the first leg to give his team a 4-1 win. “I felt confident, but there were even better matches. My efficiency was almost 100 percent, but there were matches when I did more for the game,” he mentioned.

Real Madrid urges a Champion league win, but it seems as it won’t happen this season. “We have one chance left next Tuesday, and we have to make the most of it. If there’s one team that can, then that’s Real Madrid. We need to give our lives for the cause”, said Pepe, a Madrid defender.

Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t play in the 2-1 victory over Atletico Madrid on Saturday, and he’s doubtful for the meeting against Dortmund.

Despite Real Madrid is listed as -190 favorite in the moneyline to win the second leg, keep in mind the game will be wide open for the Germans as the Spanish will desperately look for the three goals they need.

A win by Borussia Dortmund pays +400 and a draw +325.  I’ll take the draw in this one; they tied last year 2-2 at the Bernabeu at the group stage.
