Real Madrid Faces Tough Times

Real Madrid is currently in a rough spot, struggling with recent heavy losses. They experienced a disappointing 4-0 defeat at home to Barcelona in El Clasico, followed by a 3-1 setback against AC Milan in the Champions League.

Additionally, the team has been dealing with off-field issues. Vinicius Jr. reacted negatively to losing the Ballon d’Or, Kylian Mbappe was surprisingly omitted from the French national team for the upcoming November matches, and veteran defender Dani Carvajal will miss the season due to a serious knee injury.

These difficulties have led some to label this period as a “crisis,” raising concerns about coach Carlo Ancelotti’s future with the club.

Meanwhile, Serbian club Red Star Belgrade saw this as a good opportunity for some light-hearted banter directed at Madrid.

Though Red Star recently lost 5-2 to Barcelona in the Champions League, they remain optimistic and took to social media to poke fun at Real Madrid’s predicament. They tweeted, “Hi @realmadrid, we may have lost, but we scored two goals,” alluding to Madrid’s recent defeat.

Hi @realmadrid, we may have lost, but we scored two goals.

The post also included a humorous video addressing Real Madrid’s frequent offsides during the recent match.

In response to these setbacks, Real Madrid will aim to reclaim some pride during their upcoming home game against Osasuna on Saturday, hoping their players return from the international break without injury.
