My people! E don happen! Na the day wey Real Madrid go clash with their Madrid babes, Atletico Madrid, for the Spanish Super Cup. Na the winner go meet Barcelona wey don already clear Athletic Club for the first semi-final. The whole thing dey hot, you no go wan miss am!
Xabi Alonso, di coach wey plenty people dey hail, dey think about him starting XI. You sabi say after dem bulldoze Real Betis with 5-1, e no wan scatter wetin dey work! But wahala dey ground, as Antonio Rudiger fit no show face because of injury! E no show for the last training, and dat one fit give Xabi headach, make hin waka solo in last minute decision.
As e be, Rudiger dey complain say him knee dey touch am small-small. No be small matter o! If e no fit play, na big blow for Madrid because e dey solid for back. Huijsen don come back from injury, but if Rudiger no gree, na him go match Asencio for center-back position. David Alaba dey bench, but e don gather dust since October, so make we no sabi wetin go happen!
One good gist wey dey follow be say Tchouaméni don dey shine for midfield, and e fit play for back too! If dem no throw Huijsen in, e fit fit shift Alvaro Carreras to left center-back, wey e don try small-small dis season. But we know say for Xabi, e go wan keep changes to the minimum; so Huijsen as Rudiger replacement go dey make sense.
Fans dey wait for dis match with full eyes! Remember say last week Madrid scatter Betis like say dem dey do under 10 training! Gonzalo Garcia dey hot like fire! Di guy don collect hat-trick plus goals from Raul Asencio. This semis fit bring am more glory. If not for injuries, e for don shine pass!
Meanwhile, if Rudiger no fit play, wetin go happen? Real Madrid fit need to bring junior players wan no sabi yet; dem fit dey decent as wey their time don reach. With Kylian Mbappé dey injured and this Gonzalo baby dey find chances well-well, he no go wan waste am. Di games dey close like pepper soup wey hot well.
Make we keep our fingers crossed, as Xabi dey meet with di team talk. Everybody dey expect plenty fireworks as dem jostle for Super Cup title. This game go hot! No go miss am, na your squad dey! Today na the day, stay tuned! We go get more gist after di match. Naija to di world!
