Despite the defeat conceded at home in the first leg, Leipzig will have weapons to show off when they return to Madrid on Wednesday.
Real Madrid seem unstoppable. Quiet leader of La Liga, the Merengue club also won in Leipzig (0-1) in the first leg of its round of 16 of the Champions League. The Madrid giant is therefore in a strong position before returning to the German club.
However, Loïs Openda wants to believe in a turnaround in the Spanish capital. Particularly because of the spaces offered by Santiago Bernabeu. “There will definitely be situations. I have already played in Madrid with Bruges, I know that the pitch is very big. We know Real, we know that it’s a team that likes to dominate with the players they have. So I like this kind of match, when there is space, because I know how to use it very well”confided the former Lensois to the microphone of beIN Sports.
“It will be up to me to create the spaces and actions as I have been doing since the start of the season. It’s not going to be easy, I had spaces in the first leg but I didn’t use them very well. In the return match it will be different”he continued.
