Craig Bellamy reveals why Real Madrid would struggle to beat Liverpool
Former Liverpool star Craig Bellamy has revealed that he thinks Real Madrid would struggle to deal with Jurgen Klopp’s side if they met in the final.
The Reds have been the most impressive side in the top European competition without a doubt and are looking to secure their place in the final.
They take a 5-2 aggregate lead to Italy next week as they look to progress past Roma into the final. With Real Madrid taking a 2-1 lead over Bayern Munich back to the Bernabeu, they look the most likely to make it to the final too. That could well set up a dramatic final in Kyiv and Bellamy thinks that Liverpool could exploit weaknesses in Madrid’s game.
Weakness
While many have suggested this week that Keylor Navas is the weakness, Bellamy has taken another route. He has actually suggested that their defence is not what it once was. ‘I’m sure Liverpool supporters would want Bayern due to the fact Real Madrid have won it the last two occasions,’ he explained on Sky Sports.
‘Their [Real’s] experience in this competition is incredible and that does help. ‘I’ve seen enough of watching Real Madrid over this year that they’re vulnerable. They’re not the team they were the last couple of years.
‘Watching them at the Bernabeu against Juventus, I got to see that defensively, they can be left wanting. ‘The way Liverpool play not just the front three, but the midfielders getting forward breaking lines, this [Real] midfield will struggle to stay with you.
