Real Madrid is a team in the semi-finals, dreaming of everything and now there is a celebration. Florentino Pérez was seen letting loose, and was even asked about a Manchester City player

Florentino Pérez and his board of directors are amazed by the Belgian’s performance in a stadium and stage of the Champions League that is not suitable for everyone. Bayern Munich is coming
