The impact of the harsh loss that Real Madrid suffered yesterday, Tuesday, against Milan, was not only limited to the great embarrassment to which the team was subjected, but also to its position in the unified group standings of the Champions League, with its arrival in the fourth round.
The “Royal Club” fell at home and among its fans at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium to the “Rossoneri” with a score of 1-3, dropping to a very late position in the main continental championship.
Real occupies 17th place in the current standings – before the end of the fourth round – with 6 points, which does not qualify its owner directly to the round of 16, but rather needs to play elimination matches to qualify.
The loss to Milan was a painful blow for Real Madrid, especially since it came immediately after its resounding loss to its rival Barcelona on the same field, 4-0, in the Spanish League.
In the fifth round, Real Madrid is waiting for a difficult confrontation against Liverpool at Anfield, in which Real Madrid needs to win to remedy the situation before it is too late.
