Santiago Bernabéu ya fi filin wasa, kuma shi ne wurin bautar kwallon kafa. A duk lokacin da wadannan manyan kungiyoyi biyu suka fafata a wurarensu masu tsarki, wani abu na tarihi yana rubuta kansa. A karo na karshe da Juventus ta buga wasa mai tsanani a nan, shi ne wasan kwata fainal na 2017-18 da suka yi mamaki ga Madrid da ci 3-1 a daren amma suka fice da ci 4-3 a jimilla. Ci gaba zuwa 2025, inda matsayi ya yi daidai. Real Madrid tana saman matakin farko na Champions League, tana neman cin nasara ta uku a jere a Turai, yayin da Juventus ke son fara kakar wasa ta kuma yi wa masu sukar su shiru a gida. 

Kadangaba ne suka yi tunanin Xabi Alonso zai koma Bernabéu kuma ya samar da kansa da sauri haka. Amma godiya ga dabara ta dabaru, kulob din na Spain ya dawo da martabarsa a Turai. Sun riga sun yi nasara akan Marseille (2-1) da Kairat Almaty (5-0) a wasanninsu na farko na rukuni, kuma sun yi haka ne da hadakar hare-hare masu karfin gaske da kuma kwanciyar hankali da kulob din ke da shi. Idan wannan bai isa ba, dukkan kungiyar tana saman La Liga, kuma wasannin kwanan nan, gami da nasara mai wahala da ci 1-0 akan Getafe, sun nuna cewa kulob din ya san yadda ake cin nasara kuma yana cin nasara ta hanyoyi daban-daban. Madrid na Alonso tana da tattali, mai hankali, kuma mai kashewa a hanzari.

A tsakiyar dukkan wannan akwai Kylian Mbappé, wanda ba shi da iyaka, yana samun kansa a raga a wasanni 11 a jere na kulob da kasa. Gaban Madrid, wanda Mbappé ke jagoranta kuma yana wasa tare da Vinícius Júnior da Jude Bellingham, shine hadin gwiwa mai karfi na sauri, karfi, da fasaha.

Madrid har yanzu ba ta da Antonio Rüdiger, kuma Ferland Mendy, Dani Carvajal, da Trent Alexander-Arnold na da ciwon tsoka. Wannan ya ce, Alonso har yanzu yana iya kiran Aurelien Tchouaméni da Arda Güler, manyan 'yan wasa wadanda za su iya bin ka'idojin kungiyar farko.

A fagen wasa, Igor Tudor's Juventus na tattakin nasa rashin kwanciyar hankali zuwa Madrid. Juve ta fara kakar wasa da nasara 3 a Serie A, amma gaskiya ne a ce sun koma baya tun lokacin, tare da rikodin wasanni 6 ba tare da nasara ba (D5, L1). Tattakin gasar cin kofin zakarun nahiyar Turai ya fara ne da kunnen dama 2. Sun yi kunnen dama 4-4 da Borussia Dortmund da 2-2 da Villarreal— suna nuna alamar kwallon kafa amma suna fuskantar hadarin kare kai.

Mutanen Tudor suna nuna kokari amma ba sa kammala wasannin. Kasa da ci 2-0 a hannun Como ta haifar da karin jin tsoro a Turin. Lokacin da kake fama, sakamako mai kyau a Bernabéu na iya zama kayan yaji da ake bukata don sake farfado da wani aiki.

Wadanda ke motsa su don matsawa suna da inganci, kuma canjin wasa yana da kashewa.

A gefe guda kuma, Juventus na kasancewa ba a iya faɗi. Tudor's 3-4-2-1 yana samar da faɗi da yawa a tsakiya, amma a tsaro, suna fafitikar magance sauri da kai tsaye. Wannan na iya zama matsala ga saurin gaba na Madrid. Madrid za ta yi kokarin mallakar kwallon, ta samar da wurare masu yawa tare da Bellingham da ke hade a wuraren da ke waje, sannan kuma ta yi kokarin shimfida Juve. Mafi kyawun damar Juventus ita ce ta hanyar kai hari, ta amfani da karfin Vlahović da saurin Yildiz don canza hanya don kai hari. 

Ba 'yan wasan Turai da yawa ba ne ke alfahari da tarihi kamar Real Madrid da Juventus. 

Daga bugun kai da Zidane ya yi a 2002 zuwa bugun kai tsaye na Cristiano Ronaldo a 2018, wadannan biyu sun samar da abubuwa masu ban mamaki.

Kwallaye sukan zo da yawa, yawanci ana samun kwallaye uku a kowane wasa, wanda hakan ya sa wannan wasan ya zama mai ban sha'awa. 

Madrid ta yi nasara a wasan karshe da ci 1-0, wanda ya ba Los Blancos wani fa'ida ta tunani a kan hanyarsu ta zuwa ranar wasa.

Akwai damuwa ga Madrid, kuma sun zura kwallaye 2.6 a kowane wasa kuma sun ci 1 a kowane wasa a duk gasa. Juventus ta zura kwallaye 1.8 a kowane wasa amma ta ci kamar yadda ta samar da su a 1.4.

Daga hangen nesa na yin fare, duk alamun sun nuna cewa Madrid za ta ci gaba da rikodin ta na Champions League. Fom din gida, zurfin kai hari, da sarrafa wasannin da ke da kyau sun sanya su a matsayin wadanda aka fi so.
