If you are wondering if Real Madrid fear they may have run out of lives in this Champions League, too many epic comebacks already used up, you'd be wrong.
They get to the semi-finals and the smell of the final is too strong to be thinking about anything other than winning it.
Confidence is high and the main talking point has been the odds that make Manchester City such clear favourites – they can't understand why this isn't being seen as, at the very least, a 50-50 duel.
City are top of the Premier League but Madrid are a point from winning La Liga with five games left, and this is a competition they have won 12 times more than their rivals tonight.
