Real Madrid’s league season has been a real disaster. The Madrid team overcame ten defeats for the first time since 1999, that is, for the first time in the 21st century, Madrid has overcome ten defeats in the league championship.
coach stats
Lopetegui in 10 games: 4 W 2 E 4 D
Solari in 17 matches: 12 V 1 E 4 D
Zidane in 11 matches: 5 V 2 E 4 D
This speaks very badly of everyone involved: management, coaches and players. Y It also allows the comparison of technicians, the only part of that trio of culprits that has split during the year.
With Lopetegui the start was good despite the defeat in the European Super Cup, however, the bulky defeat at Sánchez Pizjuán opened a deep wound on the team from which they did not recover. Unbeaten in their first five league games, Julen’s Madrid did not win again in the remaining five, ending their career with a painful 5-1 defeat at the Camp Nou.
Then Santiago Hernán Solari arrived and the Madrid team achieved solidity and regained their composure. Between January and February, Real Madrid reached its highest levell but in the moment of truth the team fell apart. Three finals and the three lost, all of them at the Santiago Bernabéu. New fiasco that gave way to the third coach of the season.
Zinedine Zidane was returning and with him the Madridistas recovered their smile, although they knew that the immediate future was going to be very complicated. The Madrid boat, captained by the French, had a glimpse of dry land for May 20, the date on which the season was over and the new year began, the one for which the Madridistas had been yearning since the beginning of March. The problem was that there was no set course. There were no targets. There were no expectations. And that is why the journey has been stumbling in such a way that the end of the team has been as bad as its beginning.
In the white club comes the time to reflect. To see which players serve and which ones are not. A long and intense summer begins in which Real Madrid must hit the mark in its arrivals and departures if it does not want to be another blank year.
