It’s a terrible season that Real Madrid fans are going through. In addition to having already given up on the Champions League with this elimination in the quarter-finals of their favorite competition against Bayern, the Merengues will see FC Barcelona lift, once again, the Spanish champion trophy. With eleven points difference between Blaugranas and Merengues five days from the end, and even if there is still a Clasico to play, the mass is said.
Throughout the season, Hansi Flick’s team was much more consistent, still displaying an offensive power unrivaled in Spain, which helped to overlook certain shortcomings in the defensive sector. On the Madrid side, it was particularly mediocre, whether under the orders of Xabi Alonso or Alvaro Arbeloa, with a biting offensive animation and a rearguard not really more reassuring than that of the Catalans. Not to mention all the extra-sporting concerns linked, in large part, to the management of the team’s stars.
Two terrible scenarios
But above all, this coincidence of the calendar means that the Merengues will take the Barcelona title in the face. Indeed, two rather complicated scenarios stand before the gang of Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius Jr. The first scenario: FC Barcelona presents itself at the Clasico on May 10, in 2 days, as champion. Which would “force” Real Madrid players to make this famous pasillo – a guard of honor – to Barcelona players, which is always considered humiliating. A scenario that would occur in the event that Barça wins next weekend against Osasuna and Real Madrid does not beat Espanyol.
Even if, according to El Chiringuito de JugonesReal Madrid would at the moment have no intention of making this pasillo, refusing to pay tribute to a team according to them favored by the arbitration and this Negreira affair. Which already augurs a possible week full of controversies in Spain… Second option: in the event that Hansi Flick’s team is not crowned next weekend, it could be in two weeks, during this famous Clasico therefore, and celebrate its title against Real Madrid. A pasillo or title match; here are the two options available to the Merengues for this Clasico. The plague or cholera…
