It happened again. After Chelsea (2012) and Real Madrid (2017) Liverpool also eliminates Napoli and flies to the Champions League final. But in this crazy European season there are even two teams that will play for the title after having taken out the Azzurri. In the Champions League the Reds broke the pass for the round of 16 by overcoming Napoli in the last round of the group and qualifying thanks to a better goal difference, while in the Europa League Arsenal had the better of Ancelotti’s team in the double comparison of quarter finals. The Gunners, then, will play the goblet in Baku on May 29th, against Sarri’s Chelsea, one who has a very strong bond with Napoli and Napoli.
This is the third time that those who beat the Azzurri arrive in the final. In 2012 Chelsea Di Matteo managed to overturn the result of the first leg (3-1, when Villas Boas was on the bench) with the 4-1 in London and from there he flew directly to victory against Bayern Monaco penalties. In 2017, instead, Zidane’s Real Madrid had an easy life against Napoli (who was also seeded), still in the second round. First step towards the victory of the Champions who arrived in the final against Juventus in Cardiff.
