For a long time, The Las Palmas Sports Union knows that going to the Santiago Bernabéu is synonymous with making a visit to the dentist. Situation experienced by most of the rivals who face Real Madrid far from home. No matter how much the stage strikes a chord with any opponent, especially after the remodeling that the capital’s stadium has undergone, The Canarian team, every time it places both feet in Chamartín, usually ends up giving up.
The newspaper archive leaves no room for doubt. And it is that, Las Palmas, in its 75 years of life, has still not tasted the sweetness of victory in the white coliseum. Despite having played 40 games at the Bernabéu against Madrid, the ‘pio-pio’ have had 35 defeats and five draws. Among the most newsworthy setbacks, a 7-0 in the 2001/02 campaign and a heartbreaking 10-1 in the 1958/1959 season stand out. That day, both Di Stéfano and Puskas went home with a hat-trick under the sleeve.
To find the last score in the Real Madrid – UD Las Palmas draw, you have to rewind to the 2016/17 season, when The team from the Canary Islands obtained a bitter 3-3 in league competition. The foreign team did not have everything with them, since Cristiano Ronaldo -in the final stages- scored a masterful double to save the furniture. So much so that the match went from parading 1-3 to ending with the tie in the light.
