Bab 570: The Prepared Casillas

"It's Juventus one and Real Madrid one," Sandro Piccinini, the commentator, yelled at the top of his voice. "A well-executed counterattack ending with a Cristiano Ronaldo finish has allowed the Madrid-based side to bring proceedings back to square one. Now, this is the Real Madrid that I know. If they get a chance, they will make it count."

Carlo Zampa, the other commentator, chuckled. "We've been mentioning how Juventus has dominated the game and dictated the tempo since the first minute. Their teamwork has been brilliant, and they have created a few good chances against Real Madrid during the first 25 minutes. They clearly seemed like the favorites to win the UEFA Champions League quarter-final."

"But what do we have on our hands now? With one counter, with the first clear chance, everything has changed. Real Madrid have overturned the status quo, and gotten the crucial away goal that has clearly put them in a very advantageous position to win the quarter-final."
