Double Collision as Real Madrid vs Chelsea End in a Draw, and Paris Saint-Germain Set to Battle Manchester City
Football fans can look forward to semi-final, first-leg action from the 2020-21 UEFA Champions League on Tuesday 27 and Wednesday 28 April 2021.
The UEFA Champions League action for the week opened yesterday Tuesday, April 27, with Real Madrid hosting Chelsea in a 1-1 draw.
Wednesday 28 April sees Paris Saint-Germain host Manchester City at 8pm on SuperSport Premier League, with the latter team having finally progressed to their first semi-final under the guidance of Pep Guardiola after they saw off the challenge of Borussia Dortmund.
Algerian Riyad Mahrez scored in City’s 2-1 win in Germany in mid-April and is looking forward to facing the French champions: “It’s very special for me because I was born and grew up in Paris. I’m happy to play against them,” said the Citizens attacking midfielder.
Paris Saint-Germain, meanwhile, took down reigning champions Bayern Munich on away goals in the previous round, with the teams having played out a thrilling 3-3 draw over two legs. The result saw PSG avenge their narrow defeat to the German giants in last season’s Champions League final.
“I’m very happy. We played a great team and we’re a great team as well. We’ve eliminated the champions of Europe, we’re in the semifinals and we’ll have to work even more,” said PSG star Neymar, who will be a clear and present threat to Man City’s ambitions of a first-ever final appearance.
