ANDhe Real Madrid has taken the measure of Italian teams. What was once an ordeal for whites, has become a placid journey because they have won 13 of their last 14 Champions League games.
In this streak it has taken a run lately, since the Spanish team have won each of their seven most recent meetings against Italian teams, with an overall result of 15 goals in favor and only three against.
In fact, Italy is no longer so fierce for Madrid, where it has scored at least one goal in their last 14 Champions League games (24 goals in total), his best historical streak in the competition.
Only Madrid has one defeat in this streak, and it was a sweet defeat, since it meant the pass to the semifinals of the competition. We talk about the meeting against Juventus April 2018. Zinedine Zidane’s team at that time won 0-3 in Turin, the famous match of Cristiano Ronaldo’s Chilean.
On the return leg, the Italians even managed to equalize the tie, but when it was heading to extra time, a penalty – not without controversy – from Benatia to Lucas Vázquez and that Cristiano transformed ended up putting the whites in the semis of an edition that they would end up winning .
Change history with Inter
Against him Inter de Milan, with which they historically had a bad statistic, has turned it around. The interista table have lost five of their last six games against Real Madrid in European competition, which is more than those suffered against the whites in their first 12 matches, in which they added six victories, two draws and four defeats.
