There are football matches that will never be forgotten. Tirelessly, they return, over the years and memories, to interfere in the heart of the discussions of counters of the supporters. Sometimes they think back to the emotions of the first time: discovering a stadium, then a team and its star players. Most often, the supporter remembers a mythical match of his club… A Liverpool supporter, for example, will never forget the night of Istanbul in 2005, when the Reds overthrew AC Milan after being trailing 3- 0 in the Champions League final. Each supporter, whatever the level, has his legendary match. In this game, it must be admitted, the Real Madrid supporter is rather lucky. Each year, his team offers him a torrent of unforgettable emotions through matches all more dantesque each other. The 75-year-old Madridista, for example, still remembers with nostalgia the first C1 won in 1956 against Stade de Reims, after a spectacular match. Already at the time, Real had been down 2-0 before reversing the course of a match that was promised to their opponent. Like the sign of a story destined to perpetuate itself. Last season, Real made “remontadas” his signature, during this journey leading him to lift his fourteenth Champions League. In this epic, there was something unreal… It was finally Irreal Madrid!
And Anfield fell silent…
A week ago, the people of Madrid did it again. In what must have been Anfield hell, they once again sent the message that they hadn’t changed that much. You can lead, score, exult and believe in victory… there will always be a moment when reality catches up with you… Europe’s worst night at your own stadium. Noisy at first, Anfield fell into silence afterwards. Ten years from now, the Real Madrid fan will still fondly remember that winter evening not far from the Liverpool docks. A legendary evening.
