Real went crazy at the Bernabau against UEFA rookies SPURS very much helped by sending of their main man Peter Crouch in first 20 minutes with 2 needless tackles leading to subsequent yellow cards. Adebayor brace helped Real Madrid in touching distance of their first semi-final in last 8 years.
Adebayor opened the scoring in 5th minute when left unmarked in the box. He added his second in the 57th minute with well guided header past helpless Gomes. And then third was added by
Angel Di Maria,a Screamer, which surely he deserved and Ronaldo back in the starting 11 added 4th with help from Goalie Gomes in 87th minute.
It surely looks like the fairytale of Harry's man is over and "The Special One" has worked his magic again.
10 man Inter were hammered at Sansiro 5-2 by Schalke lead by Manuel Neuer. Inter went ahead through wonder strike from Dejan Stankovic in first 25 seconds. Joel Matip equalized in the 17th minute pouncing on a loose ball in 6 yard box.Milito,back in Europe after long time, restored Inter's lead in 34th minute.But once again Schalke equalized,this time through Edu in 43th minute, going in half time 2-2.Inter had great chances early in the 2nd half but were denied by best Goalie in the world at the moment,Manuel Neuer.Legendary Raul netted 3rd for Schalke in 53rd minute, taking him past Fillipo Inzaghi as top scorer in European history.Jurado burst forward from the midfield before his cross was directed into the net by Ranocchia making it 4-2.From bad,it became worst, When Chivu was sent off in the 61st minute. Edu completed his brace with stunning strike from 18 yard box in the 75th minute,making it 5-2 in favour of Schalke.
Previously 3 goal deficit has been overturned in UEFA, most famously by Deportivo over AC Milan,when they lost 1st tie 3-0 at Sansiro and won the home tie at Riazor 4-0.
