MADRID, 27 Sep. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Real Madrid will try this Wednesday (8:00 p.m.) to assert the resounding result of the first leg and play at the Alfredo Di Stéfano Stadium to seal their final ticket to the group stage of the Women’s Champions League without fright against the Norwegian Rosenborg.
A week ago, at the Lerkendal Stadium in Trondheim, the Madrid team showed their theoretical highest level and scored a 0-3 win, with a brace from Scotland’s Caroline Weir and another goal from Athena del Castillo, to make the return of this ‘playoff’.
However, Alberto Toril will not want any kind of relaxation to prevent his rival from believing in a miraculous comeback at some point and will seek to continue growing in a start to the season that is being very positive and very hopeful for the future.
At the moment, Real Madrid is proving to be very firm defensively and has yet to concede a goal in preseason or in its four official games. In addition, at the Alfredo Di Stéfano they already passed the previous round with a great rout (6-0) against the Austrian Sturm Graz and a 1-0 victory against a potential rival such as the English Manchester City.
The madridista team will also have in their favor that they will arrive fresh for this continental duel after their weekend match in the F League against UDG Tenerife had to be postponed due to the weather situation on the islands. It will be necessary to see if Alberto Toril decides to share minutes based on the result and facing the tough visit to Athletic Club on Sunday.
