Liverpool, Real Madrid and the greats of the modern game | football

It’s the big cup final, baby

After a season that has become more extraordinary with each passing week, it all comes down to this. Two teams fueled by a sense of destiny, compete for a huge prize in a glamorous modern football cathedral; It’s just a shame for someone to lose it. However, when The Fiver submitted his 3,000-word composition in the League Two Supplement Final to The Man, it was sent to us in a thousand pieces, and the scraps arranged on what passes on a desk to spell two words: BIG CUP.

And if that opening maneuver is more telegraphic than the Tevie Mbe Hollywood card, Saturday night’s showdown in Paris promises to be less predictable. Liverpool would start as favourites, but Real Madrid have shown they can destroy a carefully constructed Big Cup project in 90 seconds, let alone 90 minutes. After an increasingly dramatic comeback late against Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Manchester City, expect Karim Benzema to emerge with a late winner midway through Liverpool.

So, if you are a fan who loves to spread the number of “UCLs” for your chosen team across all available social media, as if you have contributed somehow in any useful way, here are some patented Fiver Analytics for you. Liverpool could go into seven big cups, take them to the same level with Milan – but more importantly, spoil the bleak flow of that ‘we won it’ [x] Times’ hymn. Madrid, of course, have won 13 wins – not that they like to talk about it. That’s right, The Fiver mocks teams for winning big cups. But what’s there?

Both teams earned their place, and both are coached by Deans who are beloved in the modern game. I’m Carlo AncelottiTactical disc for the game n It might amount to a conversation with Luka Modric and a theatrical eyebrow raise – but hey, it works. As for Jurgen Klopp, he remains the Big Cup winning coach and probably keeps morale up Weekend to build a team – He was closely followed by Roberto Di Matteo. To the naysayers who might point out that this is just a repeat of the 2018 final, and that six of the last nine Big Cup Finals have featured at least one of these clubs – a fair point. But again, one of these teams lost at home to Sheriff Tiraspol in the groups. The other qualified thanks to the last equalizer with a header against West Bromwich Albion. by the goalkeeper. Bad luck, Mansfield and Port Vale – that’s the true underdog story of the weekend.
