The top 5 moments of 2020 for Real Madrid
5) Trashing Spanish heavyweights
In 2020, Real Madrid both struggled a lot and won a lot. However, playing against La Liga heavyweights wasn’t a problem for Real at all. They unsurprisingly perform very well in all the huge games. Heavyweights like Barcelona, Valencia, Atleti, Sevilla, and the Basque clubs Atheltic Bilbao and Real Sociedad – all these teams have tasted defeat from Real in 2020.
Real Madrid in 2020 against La Liga heavyweights in all competitions.
- FC Barcelona- Played 2, Won 2
- Atletico Madrid- Played 3, Won 3
- Sevilla- Played 2, Won 2
- Real Sociedad- Played 2, Won 2
- Valencia- Played 3 Won 2 Lost 1
- Athletic Bilbao- Played 2, Won 2
In total, Real played 14 games against the bigger sides, losing just one against Valencia at Mestalla in November.
In a nutshell, 2020 was an amazing year domestically. We hope that Real does much better in 2021, both on the domestic front and in Europe. Zidane will aim to win all the competitions but I still think that this squad needs a few reinforcements to win everything. Let’s hope we have a 2009-esque transfer window in the upcoming summer transfer window.
