Isco Can't Walk His Dog In Madrid...Because He Named Him Messi

Isco's dog is named Messi. The Spanish international confessed that before he joined Real Madrid in 2013 he named his dog after Barcelona star Lionel Messi, stating that "Messi is the best in the world and so is my dog." Isco's dog is pretty cute, we'll give him that.

The Politics At Real Madrid Can Prevent Managers From Fielding The Best Team

It’s an open secret that managing Real Madrid isn’t exactly the best job in the world. Aside from the ludicrously high expectations, the massive egos of the players, and the fickleness of the fans, managers sometimes can’t even field what they see as the best team because of political pressure. 

Ronaldo Becomes First Player To Score 50 Goals In 6 Straight Seasons

Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 50 goals for the sixth consecutive season. He’s the first to ever do so.

It’s getting harder and harder to address Ronaldo as anything other than one of the greatest players of all time. Every time we think he is past it, or overrated, he goes and scores goals, lots and lots of goals. It’s like we’re calling an investment banker washed up and he goes and makes a million in a day.

Looking back, Gareth Bale’s first year at Real Madrid was a resounding success. He scored 22 goals and provided 19 assists in 44 matches in 2013/14, won the Copa del Rey, and the Champions League. He lived up to his billing as the most expensive footballer on the planet, but it didn’t always look like he would.

Yaya Toure Says Goodbye To Man City With A Stroll Around The Bernabeu

Yaya Toure’s UEFA Champions League testimonial match went off without a hitch on Wednesday, the Manchester City midfielder ponderously strolling around the Bernabéu pitch and gently reminding his teammates not to forget his going away cake.

Like Ernest Hemingway’s aging Cuban fisherman Santiago, it almost certainly would've taken 85 days of play before Toure could've netted a goal against Real Madrid.    

Gareth Bale Mercifully Scores A Goal, Sets Up Madrid Derby Champions League Final

After a largely drama-free edition of the Champions League semi-finals, we get an already drama-filled Madrid Derby Champions League final. This will be fun.

It almost didn't happen, though, as the second leg of Manchester City vs. Real Madrid was nearly as much of a snoozer as the first leg. Gareth Bale supplied one piece of entertainment when his shot/cross/thing hit Fernando's leg and then went past Joe Hart and into the net.
