Ancelotti trembles as Darwin Nunez threatens Real Madrid

The key moment of the season is approaching. Two tough tests lie ahead for the Reds, who are coming off the back of yet another humiliation for their sons, the Red Devils, who had to beat a weak Real Betis side in the Europa League on Thursday to drown their sorrows and overcome the frustration of being Liverpool's shadow.

While United are thinking about Europe's second most important tournament, The Pool are focused on the club-level tournament of tournaments, the UEFA Champions League, an event where they have a rematch with Real Madrid, who have all but bowed out of contention for La Liga in Spain following their recent poor results.

One of the weapons in attack for Jürgen Klopp is Darwin Núnez, who after a difficult adaptation in the Premier League, today looks spectacular and even, according to local media, if the Uruguayan maintains this pace, he could surpass what he showed at SL Benfica, club to which Liverpool paid more than 70 million euros.

"I think I've adapted very well now. I think that whenever you give 100 per cent in training, you give the same 100 per cent in the games as well," said the 23-year-old, who has eight Premier League goals to his name. The second leg of the last-16 tie will be played at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday 15 March.
