The Champions League quarter-final at the Santiago Bernabéu has turned into a major headache for Álvaro Arbeloa’s tactical plans.
Details: Real Madrid’s main midfielder, Aurélien Tchouaméni, picked up a yellow card that has maxed out his disciplinary limit. That means the Frenchman will be automatically suspended for the return leg in Munich.
Losing Tchouaméni is a painful blow for Real Madrid, given his status as an “untouchable” in the current campaign.
So not only are Real trailing the Munich side 0-2, but now they’re also facing serious squad problems.
