The Real youth team needs a little boost this Tuesday (12:00 pm) to overcome the group stage of the Youth League. The group of Mikel Llorente and Lander Garcia They are bottom with 4 points, and two behind second, Benfica. But they will face the third, Inter, who also have 4 points. With Salzburg already classified as first after winning at Zubieta, Real has only one realistic formula to advance in the tournament: win in Milan and for Salzburg to beat Benfica. Unless the royalists win by five goals or more, in which case a Benfica draw would work, but this is unlikely.
Being second, which is what Real wants the most, means going to an intermediate round, before the round of 16, against the survivors of the national champion stage (the best youth teams from each country that the senior teams are not in the Champions), which are the following eight: AZ Alkmaar (current Youth League champion), Basel, Mainz, Midtjylland, Nantes, Olympiacos, Partizan and Žilina.
