I used to dislike Real Madrid quite much and didn’t want them to win in 2014 against Atletico, them not getting La Decima would be nice.

But after 2017 and 18 I just came to the conclusion that the CL is meant for them and there’s no reason to hate them for being good in this tournament. Instead I came to admire their resilience and ability to get the needed result even when being outplayed.

Many clubs outplayed them during the last decade, but they still found a way time and time again. And this is in the CL, the biggest and most prestigious cup of them all.

It says a lot about their character and mental strength. If they win it for a 15th time it would be insane, but we seen it so many times now that we shouldn’t be surprised.

What I also like about them is their ability to build good teams, especially after they went away with the Galactico rubbish. After they focused more on building a balanced team they started to win and become a much more consistent club, thats no coincidence.

Then on top of that you have players like Modric, Kroos and Benzema still playing at a wc level in their mid/late 30’s.

Those fucking reaction videos are always cringe as fuck though.

Lemmi sit there acting extra stupid cause I know I'm recording that shit.
I tried watching reaction videos to a few movies I like, some of them got me pissed because some of them have zero clue about basic stuff and they also happen to talk too much during the movie.

But I should’ve known probably.

Nobody will, not in our lifetime. They’re the ultimate club every player aspire to play for. I don’t get the hate. Most clubs will have its ups and downs, Madrid has been a contender for whatever competition they participate since the 50’s.

14 titles, 32 semi finals. That says it all.
Can't help but feel that a single goal back in 1998 and then one in 2014 decided EVERYTHING.

Think about how football was before 1998. It was not a glorified Bundesliga.

Two lost 2 CL finals, one of them literally changing the course of football history in Real's favor (1998)?
One stollen Ballon d'Or (Cannavaro),
being the winningest and luckiest club ever,
refs' favorite,
what's NOT to hate?

City have never hurt me lol
How is Cannavaro stolen? 2018 I'd consider it since it should have gone to Ronaldo

You realize Real was a punching bag for a decade before winning again in 2014?

That shit is on you.

You decided it was a good idea to watch reaction videos. You have only yourself to blame.

I know they're popular, but I never got the point of reaction videos.

We're so empty inside that instead of watching football matches, we'll watch other people watching football matches. (or movies or video games or whatever) And then we'll turn random punters of no importance into emotional influencers over the pleasure. :wot: :hustini:

I personally would rather see that 'waxed viking' Haaland tear into and humiliate that baby-faced wet wipe called De Ligt
I hope De Shits takes a giant windmill sized turd on the ugly inbred fisherman.

the sixers will win this year

what do you have against Haaland tho? Dude is a monster and fun to watch
He can dominate when he moves to a more likable team.

I mean, he's already dominating. What more do you want?

And no, you won't win this year. Stop it.
