12 years, myriad coaches and hundreds of millions of £’s worth of Galactico talent later, the fans of #RealMadrid finally have their most sought after possession, #LaDecima or the 10th European Cup, making them the most successful team in Europe, by far. But for 93 minutes today, it looked like a plucky, smart, hardworking and well-knit bunch, brilliant #DiegoSimeone has put together this season, would deny them of their wet dream as they led 1-0 into added time. Once Real equalized thanks to a #Ramos header, the deflated look on the #Atleti men meant there would be just one winner from that point forward and goals from the £86 million man #GarethBale (how good a signing is he looking like now?) #Marcelo and a little gift to #CR7 (a simple penalty for him to finally score given that he had left his scoring boots at home it seemed) meant that post extra time, Real had won the #ChampionsLeague 4-1 against their cross-town rivals.
In his first season as coach, #CarloAncelotti has delivered the #CopaDelRey and the #Decima. He did what #Mourinho couldn’t do in 3 years at Real. There is a #SpecialOne indeed, he just happens to be Carlo!
