  Málaga CF yesterday endorsed a resounding victory to another friend of Football Impact, UD Alcorcón. Malaga CF won by 1-4 at home and recovers the path of victory after a single point in the last three games.

  The team from Malaga continues in the fight for promotion to first division.

Although Albacete and Granada are the best positioned, they are followed by Málaga at three points and Cádiz and Mallorca at 5 and 6 respectively.

  There are still many games and we already know how this works in football, so we do not miss any detail of what happens to our “boquerones” friends and we will be encouraging them to get back to the Liga Santander.

  Liverpool will face FC Barcelona on May 1st and 7th in the two Champions League semifinal matches. The English are the current runners-up and go first in the Premier League, while Barça has Messi. The tie is at 50%.

  In addition to the English, our Czech SK Slavia Praha friends also tried to reach the semifinals, performing a great game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, playing the Sarri’s team face to face. But the London team ended up imposing its highest individual quality.

  Klopp’s men are entering the final phase of the season. They only have four games left in the Premier League (in which they rank first) and three Champions League matches (both against Barça and a hypothetical final).

  On May 7th we will know if the team from Anfield will participate again in a new Champions final and on the 12th we will know if it is also proclaimed champion of the Premier League.

• Slavia will try a big feat at Stamford Bridge

  Sk Slavia Praha try tomorrow to reverse the adverse result of the first leg against Chelsea. The Czech team lost the first leg of the round of 8 by 0-1 and now it’s time to come back.

  

  Jindrich Trpisovsky and his men know the complexity of this feat, since Chelsea is one of the best teams in the world, with players like Hazard, Kepa, Willian or Kanté.

  But our Czech friends do not daunt and are aware of having done a first class preparation. The attendants to the Londonese stadium will see some players jumping to give their best to get this difficult feat.

  

  In the national championship, 1.Liga, the team has almost assured the first place of the regular season. The team has a five-point lead over another friend of Football Impact, Viktoria Plzen, with two games to go.

• Liverpool FC will try to get the pass to the semifinals of Champions

  16 April, 2019
  
  

  

  Liverpool FC will visit Porto tomorrow to face FC Porto at Estadio do Dragao. These two award-winning teams will meet in the second leg of the Champions League round of 8 for a place among the four best in European football.

  

  The English team arrives with an advantage that will allow it to face the game with tranquility, while the Portuguese will have to go all out. The goals of Naby Keita and Firmino and the fact of not having conceded a goal at home, give the team from Anfield a wide margin of confidence. Also, if the “reds” are able to score to the Portuguese team only one goal, they would force the Sergio Conceicao’s team to score 4 goals.

  

  The final phase of the season arrives, those matches that all the teams want to reach in the best conditions. But our friends have worked very hard to be there, both in the Champions League and in the Premier League, in which they rank first in an intense fight with Manchester City.

  The next few weeks will be crucial, but remember that Liverpool will never walk alone, from Marbella we do not miss a detail of our friends from Anfield.
