We will never know if Real Madrid has really believed it or only wanted to believe it. But in both cases, the sentence is final: the Merengues logically took the door of the Champions League on Wednesday evening. Shipped to the first leg (3-0) to the Emirates Stadium, the men of Carlo Ancelotti will not have existed on return (1-2) in a Santiago Bernabeu who had nevertheless started to believe in a new magical night. There will have been no miracle or magic. None of that. Arsenal, unlike Bayern Munich last year, in Manchester City, Chelsea, or Paris Saint-Germain in 2022, knew how to keep the heart warm and the cold head to come out unscathed from the Madrid mysticism. They will find for the third time in their history the last square in the Champions League, which had fled them since 2009. Reigning champion, Real abandons its crown.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If the Madrid press had tried, as always, to raise the pressure to make believe in the miracle, it too had to resolve the inability of its team to achieve it. “”Without playing, there is no miracle (…) it's a fiasco “<\/i>thus launches the daily Mark<\/i> In one of the day, well aware of the poverty displayed by the Merengues on Wednesday evening, to the point of being whistled by a good part of the Bernabeu. “”It was only a dream<\/i>“, can we say on the side of AS<\/i>who talks about a team “not up to<\/i>“The affection of his supporters.”Arsenal was superior<\/i>“, Writes the Madrilene media.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

And Carlo Ancelotti in all of this? His future is now more than compromised, and his departure at the end of the season would be almost acted. For the Madrid press, the case of technician is therefore on the way to being settled. For good. The moment to turn the page and close this glorious chapter has certainly happened. “”He aligns all his tenors and flows with them. The King of the C1 said goodbye to him, certainly for the last time<\/i>“, It is said in his country, in Italy, in particular in the columns of La Gazzetta dello Sport.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“With the Club World Cup in June, it is preferable that Encelotti leaves the club trying to win a last title or that a new coach takes over in June<\/i> ?“<\/i>wonders Mark<\/i> On the timing of this possible separation. “”The day I go from here, I can only thank the club. It could be tomorrow, in 10 days, in a month or in a year, but all I can do is thank the club, whether my contract ends or not, I don't care<\/i>“said the 65 -year -old coach on Wednesday, who notably won two Spanish championships and three Champions Leagues with the” White House “. The story will still have been beautiful, regardless of his epilogue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
