Real Madrid can tremble! Dortmund reveals plan for final

The numbers and statuses say a lot about the odds of this final of Champions League pitting Real Madrid against Borussia Dortmund. In the recent era of the prestigious competition, the White House has never lost in the final. And it is with the ambition of lifting the big-eared cup for the 15th time in its history that Carlo Ancelotti’s team will arrive at Wembley on Saturday.

But if Real Madrid is the overwhelming favorite in this final, Borussia Dortmund intends to defy all predictions. In the quarter-finals against Atlético de Madrid, then even more in the semi-final against Paris Saint-Germain, the German club was able to trap its opponents with a very precise strategy. The BvB players intend to apply this plan against the premier team of the competition.

Dortmund wants to “defend as a team”

Called upon to plan for this final, versatile midfielder Emre Can did not beat around the bush. Dortmund will bravely play their luck by closing the spaces as much as possible.

“We have to try to play like we did against PSG, announced the German international. We may suffer in the match, having to defend as a team. But we know it and we can do it. We have to try to play as normally as possible. I know it’s not easy. I know it may not be possible but you have to try, be relaxed and give everything to win. Real Madrid is a team that knows how to win and also how to win titles. We only have a few players in the team who have played in a Champions League final. Perhaps the biggest difference is the experience… “. A difference that the Yellow and Black will try to fill with great intensity, with and without the ball. The people of Madrid have been warned.
