Real Madrid Broke the Worst Attendance Since Ronaldo Exit
By news-admin
DBasia.news – Real Madrid slowly felt the impact of Cristiano Ronaldo’s exit. Besides the situation on the pitch, Los Blancos also felt it outside the pitch.
Real Madrid started the journey of 2018-2019 LaLiga well. Gareth Bale and friends defeated Getafe 2-0 at Santiago Bernabeu.
Though gaining a positive result, Madrid’s victory wasn’t witnessed by their supporters at the stadium. In that match, Santiago Bernabeu with 81,000 capacity just filled 48,466 seats.
This number was the worst since the last 9 years. Some media mentioned the worst attendance at Santiago Bernabeu was related closely to the decision to release Cristiano Ronaldo.
It’s right, though. Los Galacticos scored the worst attendance back at 2008-2009 when they got 3-1 defeat.
In fact, the match was the last before El Real recruited Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United with £80M.
However, it wasn’t only due to Cristiano Ronaldo exit. The other reason is the match who just started at 10.15 pm. It was unusual for Europe matches.
Moreover, Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos also highlighted the schedule in his social media. “I am happier then it seems, but usually I am asleep at this time,” Kroos wrote in his Twitter.
