Real Madrid: The Coronavirus League 2.0

As soon as the game ended with Villarreal in Valdebebas (Zidane’s men won 2-1 on July 16), Sergio Ramos euphorically attended the journalists explaining that “it has been a very special title for all that our country has suffered these months. I call it the ‘Coronavirus League’, which will always be a special title for what has happened and what our people have gone through “. Own Zidane He influenced the same idea: “All titles are special in this club, but because of what has happened and because of how important the League is, I feel happier than ever as a coach.”

That has allowed the Frenchman to have a motivating reference to make his squad believe that reissue title League is within reach, although there is a six-point disadvantage with Atlético (63 to 57) and two with Koeman’s Barcelona (59 to 57).

30 of 30. Curiously, when last season’s League was suspended due to the pandemic, there were 11 games left to play. Just what remains now to be played. On that occasion, Zizou convinced his people to return to the competition, even if it was with the stands empty and in the Alfredo Di Stéfano, that you had to play 11 finals and that it was only worth winning in all of them to reach and surpass Barcelona, ​​as it finally was.

That allowed the team to add ten consecutive wins (30 out of 30 possible points), which achieved that on matchday 37 the league alirón was sung after beating Villarreal in Valdebebas (2-1). The message of these days in the locker room by the coaching staff has been that, despite the Champions League challenge motivating a lot to be already in quarter finals, the League is possible if no more mistakes are made. In fact, the accounts go to win today in Balaídos to Celta and on April 3 al Eibar at Di Stéfano, to face the Clásico on April 10. Winning that day is certain that Barça would be left behind and the pressure for Atleti would be total.

The players are very motivated After the brilliant qualification with Atalanta and, after Sergio Ramos, Marcelo, Valverde and Rodrygo recovered from their injuries, the group looks hard to try the ambitious assault on that double (League and Champions) that has not been achieved since 2017. Zidane’s leadership and the wardrobe unit allow us to believe that again it is possible. The ‘Coronavirus League 2.0’ is underway.
