MARCH 14 — It was an embarrassing sight last Wednesday night as we saw most of Real Madrid’s Galacticos “Part 2” walking off the pitch dejected immediately after the final whistle in their Champions League Last 16 second leg draw with Lyon (Lyon won 2-1 on aggregate). Truly, the image of a sulking Cristiano Ronaldo walking down the tunnel was a joy to behold.
He has been quite widely despised by most non-Manchester United fans since he put on the red shirt many years ago. But from what I have heard, many MU fans also took great joy in Real Madrid’s exit, particularly because Ronaldo’s move to the Spanish club seems to have failed where European fortunes are concerned.
After all, the Portuguese winker did play in two successive Champions League finals for the Red Devils — winning one (despite his penalty miss) and losing the other.
