UCL: Super Eagles legend hails Carlo Ancelotti and Vinicius Jr, calls them ‘Extraordinary’

On Wednesday night, Real Madrid overcame a late deficit to defeat Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League.

The win takes Madrid closer to their 15th UCL title and Ancelotti aiming to win his fifth European trophy. 

Oliseh gave a particular mention to Vinicius Junior, whom he believes should take home the Ballon d'Or for his part in guaranteeing Real Madrid eliminated Bayern Munich in the semifinal.

On his official X account, Oliseh responded to the tantalising match by praising Real Madrid's effort and highlighting Vinicius and Ancelotti in particular.

"Wow! Extraordinary Ballon D'or worthy Vinicius jr + extraordinary coach Carlo Ancelotti + an absolute top Real Madrid!

"Turned defeat to legendary victory in 3 Minutes !! I love Real's non-stop variety football philosophy. A tactical blast watching Real Beat Bayern Munich."

In the second leg at Santiago Bernabeu, the record European champions defeated the Bavarians 2-1 to secure a 4-3 aggregate victory and a spot in the final.

Bayern Munich appeared to be the team going to Wembley after Alphonso Davies' goal in the 68th minute, but two minutes before stoppage time, the game took a dramatic change.

Joselu scored the goal two minutes after VAR intervention, but first, the substitute gave the Los Blancos a point back in the 88th minute after taking advantage of a mistake from Manuel Neuer.

Next, on June 1 at the Wembley Stadium in England, the La Liga champions will play Borussia Dortmund in the championship match.
