Today, the first semi-finals of the Champions League tournament in Lisbon will take place – even with German participation: RB Leipzig will meet fellow favourites Paris Saint-Germain. Watch the game live on TV and stream.
CL Semifinals: Paris is a clear favourite for a victory
In the quarter-finals, the Leipzig team won a 2-1 victory over Atletico Madrid in the 88th minute thanks to a late goal by American Tyler Adams. Before the tournament in Lisbon, the red cops alongside Bergamo and Lyon were considered the outrageous outsiders.
But now Leipzig could even go into the final. After the victory, Nagelsmann also immediately drew attention to the upcoming semi-finals in an interview with Sky: “A top team with a top coach.” Paris is a team full of stars. It’s only logical that you need another top performance to get to the final.
Paris struggled against Bergamo On
the other hand, the Tuchel group struggled in their quarter-final game against the surprise team from Italy: Atalanta Bergamo. Although PSG largely dominated the game, they were still 0-1 behind by the 90th minute. Thanks to a double blow by Brazilian Marquinhos (90th) and ex-Bundesliga pro Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (90+3rd), the French still made the game.
