Few things generate as much expectation as the Champions League. This year, the focus is on Manchester City, whose current form puts them ahead in the betting. Furthermore, they are the current champions. However, the beauty of this competition lies in its unpredictability, as the best teams in Europe compete against each other to win the Orejona.
It is not known what will happen until the matches are played, but a little dog has decided to act as fortune teller – as Paul the octopus successfully did with Spain – and advance not only the results of the quarterfinals, which is the next tie, but the team that will win the Champions League. To do so he has played basketball.
The procedure is simple. The dog has been placed at the top of some stairs, while a pair of baskets have been installed on the steps below, representing the teams involved. In this way, someone throws a ball and in the basket that goes in, that is the team that advances.
According to this friendly dog, Bayern Munich will pass Arsenal. On the other hand, the tie between Real Madrid and City will be much closer. After shooting for the basket there was no luck, so on the second try he opted for the white team. This would be one of the big surprises of the tournament.
Atleti would not be as lucky as their neighbors. The Colchonero team, with many suspense, would be eliminated in the quarterfinals against Borussia Dortmund. For its part, FC Barcelona would have no option against Kylian Mbappé’s PSG.
In the semifinals, Real Madrid would be the team that beat Bayern. On the other side of the table, PSG would be classified. Therefore, the grand final would be a match between two great teams that, in the end, Madrid would end up winning. Thus, the whites would win the fifteenth and Mbappé would close his time in the Parisian team without having been able to lift the Champions League.
