Liverpool vs Real Madrid: The final match of the champions league for the year 2022 is being held on May 29 at 12:45 am Nepali time.
We expected it, but Manchester City was vanquished after Real Madrid scored twice in stoppage time and then a penalty in extra time, sending Madrid to face Liverpool in Paris in a few weeks.
A rematch of the fateful 2018 final is now scheduled, with Liverpool serving as the home team, though some significant changes have occurred since then. Virgil Van Dijk is fit, Alisson Becker is a proven goalkeeper, and Mohamed Salah? He’s out for retaliation.
All of the images from the previous final have been burnt into the memories of all the supporters – Salah walking off in tears, Karius’ failed saves due to being fully concussed – so the potential to replace them with happy ones is the most thrilling thing. Especially in Paris, where Liverpool last overcame Real Madrid in a final. It was 1981.
Liverpool, despite their blunders against Villarreal yesterday, are practically in their finest form and now have the opportunity to make up for the loss that sent them on this path. With more matches than ever between now and the final, they’ll have plenty of time to stay in shape, especially since Madrid will have a little more break. Madrid will be expecting us to exhaust ourselves before May 28th.
The teams will meet at the Stade de France in Paris, and maybe this time will be much better than the last.
