Zapping Onze Mondial EXCLUDED: Randal Kolo Muani’s “Little Brother” interview!

Despite its big victory against Cadiz (3-0), Real Madrid had to wait a few hours on Saturday, and the defeat of Barça on the lawn of Girona (2-4), to be able to officially enjoy its 36th title of champion of Spain . An official coronation that the Merengue club decided to celebrate very quickly, in the corridors of the Bernabeu, postponing the real celebration until later due to the imminence of the semi-final second leg of the Champions League against Bayern Munich, Wednesday evening in their compound.

Atlético did not congratulate Real Madrid

Which did not prevent Real Madrid from receiving numerous congratulations. And in this context, the daily AS raises a controversy since only two La Liga clubs did not congratulate Real. Cádiz, who had just suffered a painful defeat at the Bernabeu, but especially Atlético Madrid. While even Barça sent out a message, radio silence on the side of the Colchoneros who did not congratulate the rival club. Atlético, justifying itself to AS, assured that this was not aimed at Real in particular, rather having a tradition of never congratulating other clubs for their results. A justification that is not really elegant, especially since Real Madrid, in 2021, had congratulated Simeone’s gang for their coronation.

Real Madrid were officially crowned in Spain this weekend and the Madrid press highlighted a not very classy choice from Atlético Madrid. Indeed, the Colchoneros were almost the only ones not to congratulate the White House.
