He himself demonstrated that Vinícius did not deserve the Ballon d’Or by reacting the way he did as soon as he found out that he had not won it. The list of merits for being voted includes fair play, and nothing is more contrary to that precept than rejecting defeat and sullying the respect that is owed to the winner when it is not you. Sport is not only about winning, and the current Real Madrid, accustomed to victory, seems to have forgotten that. It is not acceptable to go to galas only when you are entertained and to get off the private plane when you find out that you will not be the main actor. The conspiracy theories about a hypothetical persecution by UEFA ring hollow considering that the white club has won six Champions Leagues in the last ten editions. What harassment. “The teacher has a thing for me.” Lie down, kid. I don’t believe it. Real Madrid’s tantrum, together with the 0-4 in the classic on Saturday, devalues the international image of a club that, except for the co-religionists who live in the same bubble, has been determined to fall badly for some time. Surely with Vinícius as a banner. “When he loses he shakes hands,” it is said in his anthem. They dropped the phrase from the suitcase.
It is possible that, blind with arrogance, they do not see it. In fact, the indignation at not seeing winners of the Ballon d’Or explains everything: the problem has been that Real Madrid (and by extension media Real Madrid) had given the award to itself weeks ago with the arrogance of those who deny even the existence of the other. And the other exists. And his name is Rodri. And they voted for him. Bad luck.
Carlo Ancelotti has been chosen ‘best coach’ but has not collected the award in Paris

It’s time to open another melon, because it turns out that Rodri is Spanish. From Madrid, for details.
The connection between Real Madrid and Spanishness is sold as unbreakable, but perhaps the time has come to examine it. The ugly Rodri of Madrid is also ugly for Aitana Bonmatí, who won the World Cup for Spain, and Lamine Yamal, who did the same, along with Carvajal, for example, with the Euro Cup. This poor sensitivity to the homeland It was already demonstrated in the 2018 World Cup, when Florentino Pérez decided that his coach would be the national team coach, Julen Lopetegui, torpedoing any hint of Spanish success. Do you remember? Years later, the Madrid of today, which is cheered on with white and Spanish flags, was not represented in the last call for the men’s team of the red one. Maybe that’s why they behave as if they were Brazilians?
Madrid is not liked, but in Madrid they believe that it is the others who are going in the opposite direction.
