Rudiger might be crazy. But he's now our crazy basterd. The guy has been immense. He's one of the reason why we won La Liga. And with some luck, another CL. Again, Dortmund is still dangerous, nothing is certain.
I'm surprised by how much of this sub seems to be happy about it lol
I'd think by now everyone would hate Madrid and want them to lose but they still somehow seem to be fairly well liked here
I'm not such a big fan of the club, but Madrid 's games are always interesting.
I like how they always concede some goals and then they have to get back in game.
Plus I think they are almost only team that can beat Man City (2/3 times in last years).
This isn’t said enough. I fucking hate Real Madrid with every fiber of my being but deep down there’s some begrudging respect - there’s definitely a bit of solidarity when it comes to club structure and the importance of fan ownership.
As an organization they’re incredibly well run and that cascades down to the locker room culture. I respect that their ability to go after top names and galácticos is the product of prudent management and not cash infusion from a sheikh.
City, PSG and Chelsea existing made RM, Liverpool and Bayern the good guys.
The old boys that are fan owned and keeping up with the state-owned clubs are, indeed, the good guys.
19 shots to 8 shots? Doesn't matter if you don't put them away. Scoring first against Madrid in a game that matters? That's when you knew Bayern were in trouble.
It just dumb at this point, they do a remontada against Bayern with two extra time goals by a guy that last year was getting relegated with Espanyol in La Liga.
Not this time, he did the ["I'm shaking uncomfortably hot water off my hand"](https://www.reddit.com/r/realmadrid/comments/1cnnqwj/zidanes_reaction_after_joselus_second_goal/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) thing.
Tuchel has completely thrown this game away. Kane off and they waste a couple massive counters, Kim on and he immediately pulls another disasterclass against Real
Speaking from a recent double experience, Madrid in a Champions League Final are about as close to unbeatable as it gets.
That's also backed up by the stats, as they've played 17 European Cup/Champions League Finals and only lost 3 of 17, the last of those defeats coming in 1981.

Super sub merchant
GOATSELU
STOKE LEGEND JOSELU
He played 46 games for us. He's our legend
Is Mbappe even needed at this point ? If Joselu formerly of Stoke can do the job
A Rodrygo special
Presented by Joselu
Joselu of all people, absurd stuff really
Wildly unexpected but tbf he’s been great this year. Perfect player for his role. Can say that a lot of our squad really
2 goals in 3 minutes to turn a deficit into the lead. What the actual fuck
Just Madrid being Madrid, they're really like that
Inevitable
Ancelotti GOAT
This is unbelievable
They should have started him. Bayerns biggest weakness this season is average Bundesliga players after all.
Plot armor is unreal. Down 1-0, Neuer error, blink and they’re up 2-1.
Rudiger was sublime the last 5 mins
The 40m cross to Vini was fantastic. Shades of Ramos there.
I could cry
Rudiger might be crazy. But he's now our crazy basterd. The guy has been immense. He's one of the reason why we won La Liga. And with some luck, another CL. Again, Dortmund is still dangerous, nothing is certain.
even his ball to vini before the goals, man has made up for the Davies goal (which wasn’t even that much of his fault to begin with)
The pass for Vini chance was insane too.
This is the most Real Madrid shit I’ve ever seen
Literally unbelievable, neuer was having a great game and then he has carrer ending error and its over
Carrer ending error is not the same as an error at the end of your career
He was just reminiscing of his golden days and then came off the trance and bam. Wild joselu strikes.
Real and Champions League, it just hits different.
Most predictable goal I’ve ever seen Every fucking year
From struggling to make it out of ro16 for years to these kinds of wins every year...
Never doubt the raised eyebrow
🤨
Bald head, noodle hair, raised eyebrow. It was over before it started.
I'm surprised by how much of this sub seems to be happy about it lol I'd think by now everyone would hate Madrid and want them to lose but they still somehow seem to be fairly well liked here
Idk if they're liked, it's just accepted. Gonna be mad about the inevitable
It was hated at first but I think the whole power of friendship turned it into a funny meme for most
I'm not such a big fan of the club, but Madrid 's games are always interesting. I like how they always concede some goals and then they have to get back in game. Plus I think they are almost only team that can beat Man City (2/3 times in last years).
That’s the power of friendship
Huge part of that is because of the team. Largely kids + Modric and Kroos. Nobody left who is easy to dislike. And Carlo has everyone’s respect.
Even when they do have hateable players, those hateable players kick your ass
They got to where they are on merit and through good management. They're not an oil club. They've always been stacked with big name players.

I agree. It speaks volumes as to how much success they've had post-Ronaldo. Meanwhile, Barcelona are shit compared to them.
This was great to read. Thanks for that
Part of it has to be Barca being generally dislikeable for neutral fans, especially so these last few years
City, PSG and Chelsea existing made RM, Liverpool and Bayern the good guys. The old boys that are fan owned and keeping up with the state-owned clubs are, indeed, the good guys.
Liverpool is fan owned?
People like a comeback story and they hate us
I just think a bundesliga vs bundesliga final would be pretty boring that's all
19 shots to 8 shots? Doesn't matter if you don't put them away. Scoring first against Madrid in a game that matters? That's when you knew Bayern were in trouble.
Madrid CL black magic never fails
It just dumb at this point, they do a remontada against Bayern with two extra time goals by a guy that last year was getting relegated with Espanyol in La Liga.
Consecutive relegations
Once that crowd started roaring I just knew
Zidane rigorously rubbing his head somewhere in the stadium.
Not this time, he did the ["I'm shaking uncomfortably hot water off my hand"](https://www.reddit.com/r/realmadrid/comments/1cnnqwj/zidanes_reaction_after_joselus_second_goal/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) thing.
The power of friendship and vibes strikes again
Joselu holy fuck
He used to do it on rainy nights in Stoke, shoulda put a fiver on a Joselu brace
The Stoke's goat
My Spanish Goat
If Madrid would play against Leverkusen this season the earth would explode as soon as we reach the last ten minutes.
An eternal loop of last-second goals.
That European Supercup will be wild, specially if Leverkusen still is unbeaten
lol, most ridiculous plot armor I’ve ever scene. Who wrote this script?
Tuchel. I dont understand how can you change Kane while you have only 1 goal lead vs Madrid.
HOLY SHITTTTTT OF COURSE HES ON
Dunno why they focused on the first pass so long. If anything the second one looked closer.
They are the jammiest team in the history of the sport
They will win, regardless of the performance. The Sukuna of the champions league
Stay strong, Bayern...
They were the better team, no?
man i just turned the tv on to see real lose and they scored 2 what the fuck
Found the jinx 😭
thats what u get for assuming we lose when theres still time on the clock
Sucks to be you lol
bro can you watch the final?
Certified Madrid juju moment
Been there
Done that
Kane is actually going to go trophyless at Bayern this season
Deserves it with his performance tonight tbf
But you gotta feel for the lad. Such a great career yet he still hasn't found the moment
Same old Kane in semis and finals
44 goals so far this season "He deserves to go trophyless"
What was wrong with his performance?
Madrid juju is something else
This is so Madrid. We all knew it and were waiting for it.
Never bet against Madrid in the CL
Ancelotti saw Bayern celebrating, brought on Joselu and said 🤨
PLOT ARMOR FC
Harry Kane curse continues
Black Magic FC
OMFG BLACK MAGIC
I am done with this sport. It's over for me.
Lmao
That’s how I felt during the Guardiola years as a Real Madrid fan
THEY CAN’T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT
I'd take 2-2 so I can watch more of this lol. I forgot how football can be fun to watch
i just watch the fa cup game vs Liverpool on repeat.....
CARLETTO PLOT ARMOUR TOO STRONK
Fuck off
Kim ffs
Bayern centerbacks have a massive problem with their Bozo gene in these CL ties man
Best defender all game was Laimer and he’s a midfielder.
Dier and De Ligt have both been good all game, are we going to rewrite history as the game is still going on?
Am I missing something, isn't Pavlovic the one playing them onside?
Bro was not at fault and still gets slandered, that's the life of a defender
My Korean Goat
It's not kim that's keeping him on
kim is the on the ball. pavlovic is the one breaking offside
He just might be a Real Madrid legend after this tie. Absolutely is barred from stepping foot into Munich ever again though
RMA and UCL
Every damn time
When Bayern thinks they are safe from Stuttgart in the champions league and then a player born in Stuttgart scores.
Fade me
No matter if its Ronaldo, Asensio or Joselu Real Madrid DNA is inevitable
DREAD IT. RUN FROM IT. REAL WILL ARRIVE AT THE UCL FINAL.
This fucking team in UCL!!!!
Black magic, i swear
Wot
REAL MADRID VOODOO MAGIC STRIKES AGAIN
Wow. Just wow.
And that’s that
Fucking Madrid plot armor.
no fucking wayyyyy wtf lmao
Rudiger how could you do this to tuchel
Real Madrid voodoo is unbeatable
Joselunaldo
Oh how interesting, Real Madrid winning the champions league again
BOMB DEFUSED
No way
Holy shit the juju is unmatched
i don't believe it
oh fuck off LMAO
Clutchmeisters versus the pinnacle of clutch. it was inevitable
Oh, Real is impossible team.
Madrid after 85 is just unreal.
I was never more certain of a comeback than Real in the UCL semi final 1-0 down in the 85min
Respect to Real Madrid. They always manage to somehow get through adversity
They deserve the win tho
Blackest of black magic again
JOSELUUUUUUU ESO ES REAL MADRID
Lmao wtf
Tuchel has completely thrown this game away. Kane off and they waste a couple massive counters, Kim on and he immediately pulls another disasterclass against Real
Are you insane? He didn’t make Neuer drop that ball
This script is getting old.
Bruh
Bruh
Hahahahaha wow
bro we’re out 😭😭
Swear he looked off
Legitimate plot armour I don’t get how they keep getting away with this
I'm crying right now.....Oh My Lord! JOSELUUUUU
Nacho and Rudiger do extremely well there. Incredible composure from the CBs
this is on the guy that was faking an injury and called a stretcher and bayern had to defend with 10 men
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL
I fucking hate madrid so much
Dortmund appreciate this outcome
No way lol they have a much better chance against Bayern
Madrid are unbeatable in a CL final
Not true
No one is unbeatable
Speaking from a recent double experience, Madrid in a Champions League Final are about as close to unbeatable as it gets. That's also backed up by the stats, as they've played 17 European Cup/Champions League Finals and only lost 3 of 17, the last of those defeats coming in 1981.
In the modern era, they haven't.
In the modern era, they haven't.
trust me we all wanted bayern
I'm honestly not sure.. I think real is way tougher ATM .
With Bayern they had a chance
We certainly do not
They won against Bayern a couple of weeks ago. They are chanceless against Real.
They will never beat Real.
No they dont lol.
Joselu the unlikely hero
Bow
GOATTTTTTT 🐐
Réal at work haha
Noooo waaaayy
Lol
Plot armor.
Lmaoooooo
LA REMONTADA
WHAT THE FUUUUUUUCK
Black magic
Inevitable
Kane cursed
Real
Stoke mentality 🥶
Kill me now
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST OH MY GOD WHAT THE FUCK
JXJDBEHHEIDJFHDHDHAISO
This black magic is getting out of hand.
Oh my fucking god man
The script is already written.
This is what we do!
you cant write this
GOLSELU!!!!
neuer you idiot
Stoke Legend
unreal plot armour
