Real Madrid is perhaps 3-0 to Arsenal in their quarter-final-equal game from Champions League, but there is still a conviction that they can go to the last four and thus continue their defense of the crown they won last season.
The Gunners achieved a memorable victory on Tuesday, and although they are fixed favorites to reach the semi -final, Real Madrid did not give up De Hoop. And there are also experts and supporters who give them a chance to continue, because they have referred to countless unlikely comebacks in the Champions League in recent years.
And it is that intimidation factor that could help Real Madrid next Wednesday. Dani Carvajal believes that this could be the case, where journalist Manuel Jabois (via Cadena SER) comments about the vice captain about the ability of Los Blancos to do so many occasions on so many occasions.
“He said this at Joselu's wedding. A manager asked him, in a closed circle, when the team really believed in the magic of comebacks. And Carvajal told him that they did not believe that the comebacks was more, but that the most important thing was that the rivals did.”
Real Madrid may have to play on that psychological impact when they are organizing Arsenal next Wednesday. The side of Mikel Arteta does not have much experience playing large European competitions, so there is a chance that they can crumble more easily than other opponents.
It is still to be seen whether Real Madrid can overcome the shortage of three goals, but there is a conviction from the club that they can do it. If they do that, it could be their best comeback in the Champions League in recent seasons, especially if they would win the competition for the 16th time.
