congrats man, enjoy
mallorca staying up and real getting the cl B)
btw, what a gesture from benzema
guy had every single box checked to take the trophy and run for carrying the team and he lets marcelo lift the cup
what a guy
Well, Marcelo is our captain, so he was going to lift it regardless. He confirmed today what was expected: he's leaving the club
He's an absolute legend. He has become the player with the most titles in Real Madrid's history, with 25, leaving Gento's previous record of 23 behind. And not only that, he is such a fantastic person with a very likeable character... he will definitely be missed. Honestly, when he arrived at the club, nobody expected he would become a worthy successor of Roberto Carlos, and yet there he is, 15.5 years later, leaving the fans debating on who is our greatest all time LB.
And yes, Benzema has been amazing this season, and without a doubt the overall hero of this CL run
Regarding Mallorca, YES, another great reason for me to enjoy this football season. I moved back to Mallorca last year, so I was ale to get a season ticket for this season and attend most of the home games. I've not mentioned anything about them this season because the Smaller Club thread is locked due to inactivity, but we've had quite a rollercoaster season. Staying up was a struggle, and the board controversially fired the manager that got us promoted while we were still out of the relegation zone, but it was probably for the best.

Very well said my friend, I couldn't be happier. I was shaking around minute 80, those damn minutes went by so slow!
HUGE performance by Courtois, Carvajal and Valverde had the games of their lives and even Toni was playing better than he had all season.
It's simple. CL = Real's competition B) <3
Indeed
