These have been the 10 most difficult moments of the Real Madrid in the last 10 years:
Although since the return of Zidane the trend of the Classics has changed, in the last decade the whites have been scalded many times. His main executioner has been Luis Suárez, with a double in the win at the Bernabéu against Benítez’s Real Madrid (0-4) or a hat-trick in the hand of Lopetegui (5-1). In the Cup three years ago he scored another double (0-3). Nor is the 0-3 at the Bernabéu forgotten before Christmas, with Zidane on the bench.
As with Cristiano Ronaldo, we cannot avoid the march of two legends the ‘size’ of Sergio Ramos and Casillas. Especially painful was that of the goalkeeper, who in his last years was much discussed and had very difficult times. Sergo has gone through a dramatic 2021 due to injuries, although he has not suffered the disagreements of the public as happened to Iker. In any case, they were two tough times.
It was the most difficult year of all that Zidane has completed as a white coach. In February, Real Madrid only had the Champions League left, although they would end up winning it against Liverpool (3-1). All because in the league they were fatal and in the Cup they had a real hit. After having beaten Leganés in the first leg (0-1), the pepineros came back at the Bernabéu and left them out of the semifinals.
When the best player in your history leaves, the normal thing is that the team misses him. It is happening to Barcelona with Messi as it happened to Real Madrid 3 years ago with Cristiano Ronaldo. Since then they have only won one league and one Super Cup, but above all they have lost a lot of offensive potential. The void left by the Portuguese when he headed to Juventus will not be covered by anyone in the club’s history.
In this 2021 there has also been a critical moment in the history of Real Madrid. The Copa del Rey is the only tournament that Zidane has choked on as a coach and player. In January, the team made a fool of themselves and the less common were in evidence, when the initial goal was traced back by a team like Alcoyano, from Primera RFEF (2-1)
It is curious that in the league, Atlético de Madrid have only won 1 home derby of the last 20 they have played. The data is devastating. But that single victory was also devastating. Simeone’s men endorsed him 4-0 at a time when they linked 6 derbies without losing, the best streak in their history. Many players were singled out and more after Cristiano celebrated his birthday that same night.
Rafa Benítez was barely 6 months as Real Madrid coach. The truth is that his results were not so bad, but he never had the confidence of the club or the players. One of the biggest grotesques in the history of the white club was lived in Cádiz, with the Extremadura on the bench. The match was sentenced (1-3), but Cheryshev was playing despite having to serve a previous penalty. Improper alignment, the eliminated team and the ridiculous that will remain in history.
Yes, another tough moment that also took place at the Bernabéu. Simeone’s Atlético de Madrid was a completely different one, a much stronger team. He hadn’t won a derby for 14 years, but that night everything changed. Cristiano put the Whites ahead and Diego Costa took the game into extra time. There, a goal from Miranda buried the white options on a night in the history of the eternal rival (2-19. It was the last match of Mourinho of Real Madrid as coach and on top of that he ended up expelled
It was also at the Bernabéu. Mourinho’s Real Madrid had the best squad in Europe that year and faced its black beast. Bayern had won in the first leg (2-1), withstood the whites’ initial gale at the Bernabéu and took the game to penalties (2-1). There Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka and Sergio Ramos (1-3) missed their shots. The Champions flew for the tenth year in a row
The 2018/19 season was an absolute disaster. Three coaches, loss of stars, no galactic signings … and all three titles to hell in a week. From February 28 to March 7, Barcelona eliminated them from the Cup (1-1 and 0-3) and sentenced them in the league (0-1). The hardest thing was Ajax’s win (1-4) that ended the streak of 3 Champions in a row. Above, everything at the Bernabéu.
