Initially, it was suggested by Uefa that the rest of the season will be played in Portugal only. But later they confirmed that Germany will also host some matches of the knockout stages. We all know that the champions league was suspended four months ago in March and is scheduled to be restarted in the second week of August. There is still four round of 16 matches left to be played between Barca vs Napoli, Man City vs Real Madrid, Chelsea vs Bayern Munich, and Juventus vs Lyon.  We will be watching some mouth-watering games in the quarter-finals of the champions league as Barca, Bayern, Man City, Real Madrid, and Juventus are all drawn in one group.

Real Madrid has been in superb form since the return of football to Europe. They have played seven games in La Liga so far and have won all of them scoring 13 goals to secure all 21 points.

Ramos says, "We won't win the league with the help of Referees"

Image
Since football has restarted in Spain there have been a lot of questions about the refereeing in the league. A lot of accusations have been made on the referees and they have been alleged of supporting Real Madrid since the resumption of La Liga. All this drama started after a comment from the Barca defender Gerard Pique when he said that Madrid is being favored by the referees in the league. This was denied first by Zinedine Zidane in a press conference before Real Sociedad game and he replied by saying that I don't care about anyone's comment. He added that everyone has his own distinctive point of view about a certain thing and has his own right to present in his own way. But as far I think no one is supporting Real Madrid except the players. He didn't say anything that would create a controversy between the two. This thing was again heated up by some players and Barca's president Josep Bartomeu. He like Pique pointed out that referees and even the technology ...
