Bernd Schuster is one of the few players that has worn the shirt of Spain's three big sides - Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico. However he thinks none of them will get to the Champions League final on May 30 in Istanbul.

The German said: "In general, they're having a bad season. Quite poor, so I don't think any Spanish team will win the Champions League." On his favourites, he added: "We didn't believe in Bayern Munich until recently and now you see them and they're doing very well."

Schuster thinks Madrid "lack a No 9 for two years, since Cristiano left."

 

On their clash with City, he added: "The first half was very tactical, very respectful, nobody wanted to concede and with the 1-0 we thought Madrid would win but they were facing a team with a lot of options who were favoured by the substitutions."
