Juventus (2005), Arsenal (2006), Bayern (2007), Rome (2008), Liverpool (2009) and Lyon (2010), successive elimination of Madrid in Champions

Olympique Lyon overcame the clash against Real Madrid, who got out of the Champions League knockout round, a barrier that, for the sixth consecutive time, continues insurmountable for all white.

Not even the incentive to host the final of Europe's most prestigious tournament and the fact address the and local leg ended with a curse that Real Madrid can not overcome.

The gigantic black legend for dominating the competition. The tenth is seen as a utopia for the king of the European Cup.

On a day like this, a March 10, 2004, Real Madrid began to dig his recent black legend. One after another, Juventus, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Rome and, last year, Liverpool, took out the Spanish team continental competition. Rivals entity but in any case faced the battle with overwhelming favorite. A relationship which has now been joined by Lyon, a team that resists his all white and that has shocked his own ghosts. For three consecutive editions without reaching the quarter. Now you have them.

The Madrid European drought is entrenched in 2002 when he won the title in Glasgow. Its decline then was gradual. The season Next he reached the semifinals. But he lost to Juventus. The next year, in 2003-2004, remained in the quarterfinals, where she was unexpectedly beaten by Monaco, then reinforced by the former Real Madrid player Fernando Morientes.

That was the last time that Real Madrid overcame the knockout. After the sentencing began. In 2005, Real Madrid led by Brazilian Wanderlei Luxemburgo was eliminated by Juventus, who won at Delle Alpi Stadium (2-0), when the target set had been imposed in the first leg (1-0).

The second blow in 2006, coincided with a tumultuous time in the state. Florentino Perez had left shortly before becoming president. And Juan Ramon Lopez Caro took the reins of the template that crashed against Arsenal as Thierry Henry and Jose Antonio Reyes. Arsene Wenger's team won the first leg at home (0-1) and tie (0-0) was insufficient for Real Madrid.

In 2007, Bayern Munich told a new chapter in the special battles along with the story has remained with the Spanish club. Table Madrid went to Germany supported by the pins of 3-2. It was profitable for Bayern, who won 2-1 to advance to the quarterfinals and leave out the competition to its rival.

The 2008 season was one of the most disappointing in this situation. It was the only one that faced Real Madrid in the return and local levels. But lost both games, on the Olympic and the Bernabeu, 2-1.

But the most sonrojante was the last, the last exercise in 2009, when Liverpool uncovered all the shortcomings of the team led by Juande Ramos. Madrid won with a late goal from Israeli and thrashed Jossi Benayoun at Anfield (4-0), one of the toughest European nights which has suffered from Real Madrid.

Now this sum. With all in favor. A smaller rival, and in their own stadium.

The Portuguese pressure is removed ahead of the first toss of the season, requests the support of the crowd and ensures that crash out "would be a disappointment," but is an option that the player does not contemplate.

Cristiano Ronaldo has been everyone's goal today focuses on the newsroom Valdebebas Sports City, where the Portuguese footballer has appeared before reporters to answer the many questions that have been raised, most of them associated with the second leg of the knockout stages of the Champions League on Wednesday measured at Real Madrid with Olympique Lyon at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium.

A duel key presented to the aspirations of the club and the new draft Florentino Perez in the light of the multibillion investment this season, with the added pressure of the dispute of the Champions League final at the Bernabeu.

Just Cristiano Ronaldo considered essential support of the crowd to go up 1-0 in Lyon and the Portuguese want to be revived on Wednesday on the steps of the great atmosphere against Sevilla last Saturday: "We have to go with the mentality to win, to go to score goals and if a more attacking midfield, the better, as requested by Guti, but it depends on Mister ".

What has made the Portuguese is claiming the support of the fans: "Against Sevilla was fantastic, I felt a very large impact to see the fans as well. I hope to repeat it on Wednesday will be crucial to give us confidence to play well and win. Together, we must demonstrate to Lyon at the Bernabeu to send us, "he said.

This final act of the second round of the Champions League is the best Madrid has in recent years, so that Christian does not arise crash out, although he admits it "would be a disappointment, because we want to win the Tenth at the Bernabeu. The team is in a great run of form, is the strongest in the championship, and now measure ourselves to a very strong physically, we are at home and we can do better than in Lyon, so I hope to give a good response and that will move to the next round. "

It takes pressure

What is beyond the Portuguese star is that all the pressure falls on him. "We played once, not just me, but that does not involve any extra pressure," sure, and also denies that its dependent on any football game (in relation to its connection with Guti): "My style of play depends on no one, depends on the entire team. Guti is a great quality, but Madrid depends on the collective , a large team is with everyone, with the 11 to jump into the field and the alternates, "said Christian, who is very comfortable with the position in Pellegrini's team:" In the end more than playing Manchester, but here is similar and the position is the most important thing in the Madrid game free and always ahead, which is what I like: I do not care for right or left, the important thing is to play ahead. "

The Madrid-Barça "not decisive"

Despite the imminent and crucial match against Olympique - "is the only game where you have to think," insisted the Luso-today were inevitable references to the league match against Barcelona on April 10. Cristiano has clear implications for the championship final resolution "is not a decisive match. Once we were within five points of them and now we're even. It is true that at the Bernabeu have more chance of winning, but we'll think about it when the time, "he said.

Kaka is "titularísimo"

The nievel good game and goals (20 in 21 games) that is offering Christian in Chamartin contrasts with that expected from the other major signing white of the season, Kaka, whose performance is perhaps the only shadow leader of the League. Now Ronaldo has made a vigorous defense of the Brazilian, "I'll confess one thing." Kaka is the quietest team player and a great professional football does not forget from one day to another, he works a lot and so I am sure that you are going to leave things, you look good and is essential in this team, it titularísimo "he said.

To conclude, Cristiano also referred to red cards he has seen in Liga (2), but the truth is that it has again been booked since last expulsion against Malaga: "One is always learning, inside and outside of football, I do not need experience and advice know how to cope. You always need improvement and what I do, always learning, "the Portuguese.
