The Unexpected Hero of Real Madrid's Champions League Triumph
Real Madrid once again advanced to the UEFA Champions League Semifinals after eliminating Manchester City on penalties (1-1, 4-4 aggregate). However, this time, Madrid had an unlikely hero.
Andriy Lunin, the goalkeeper for the Merengues who stepped up in the absence of Thibaut Courtois, has become the team's starting goalkeeper, even outshining Kepa.
During the clash against the Cityzens, the goalkeeper had an unforgettable night, saving two penalties and playing a crucial role in Madrid's progression to the Semifinals for the fourth consecutive time in the prestigious continental tournament.
