Real and Atletico representatives got in an argument today about how many times the grass will be watered. RM wanted the grass to be watered 3 times ( 2 before the game and 1 at half-time ) and Atletico wanted the grass to be watered only once before the game. UEFA, of course, rulled in Atletico's favor. I can see why RM wanted the grass watered more, when the grass is wet the ball moves faster.
I came home from work yesterday, and my 1.5 year old nephew was wearing his Ronaldo jersey with a cup of milk in hand. That's when you know it's on.
Cheering from Vegas. Memorial weekend has been great so far...... they better not ruin it. There isn't one difference maker.... IMO there are many. From Navas to Cristiano to Casemiro to Modric to Bale to Kroos to Benzema to..... basically everyone player. It may be my hangover, but I feel good about this game. They will get it done.
I need to know whether I wear my Ronaldo jersey I've been wearing in the most important games (Wolfsburg remontada, Barcelona, City...) or my La Décima jersey I bought after winning the CL!!
Being a Madridista is a Feeling! Yeah, every Madrid fan can feel the pride of those words. The Club of the Century award winners are the most successful club in the world and everyone related with the club expresses that Pride whenever they given a chance. In the social media sites, the general feeling among most of the other club fans is Real Madrid fans are the most ruthless fans and the reason is the grand successes the club had in the past.
Everyone is making it out to be a Simeone vs Zidane or Greizmann vs Ronaldo story. I believe this will be a Oblak vs. Navas story.
This is historical chance to shut those eternal arguers that say that we only won at the start of the competition We have won 4 titles since 1998 and if we win this we are gonna be undisputed kings of the old and the new format Hala madrid Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Would love it if we could score a header or two, nothing pisses them off like conceding headers. We did just that 2 years ago, but eternal arguers gonna do that anyway, and make a campaign or two, who gives a shit.
I've been super busy lately and I'm ditching a semi important meeting for the game. Finally at home. Can barely keep my eyes open I'm so tired but I'm gonna caffeine up and take out my Zizou jersey and then ride this roller coaster to where ever it may end. I love this team and I love Real Madrid. We'll be fine today.
2:15 hours to go.... Can't wait.... Do you guys think atletico will attack for the first 20 mins trying to steal a goal and then sit back to protect it??? I have a feeling we will be more pumped and attacking from the word go..
Nerves are kicking in. I'm so excited for this! Let's do it...I'm a bit pessimistic however. Something about the two-week long wait for this final did that to me.
Since the 2014 final, we've only managed to win agianst Atletico once in ten encounters. But we've always gotten the best of them in the CL. The last time thanks to a late Chicharito goal.
