The miracle that Real Madrid needs to reach the knockout stages of the Champions League

Real Madrid is involved in serious trouble in the Champions League. The Spanish side, that won more times the international competition, could be eliminated in the first round. Zinedine Zidane is set to leave the Galacticos after such a bad star of season, as Florentino Pérez has lost his patience.

When visiting Shakhtar Donetsk, Real Madrid lost 2-0 and suffered their second defeat in a row, after losing against Deportivo Alavés as well. With such a result, the team from the capital of Spain went down to the third position on Group B after earning seven points on five matches played.

In the last game they will face Inter, that stands last with just two points. The leader of the zone is Borussia M’Gladbach and the second one is Shaktar, with eight and seven points respectively. Real Madrid will have to defeat Gladbach on their last game to qualify and wait to see the result of the game that the Germans will play against Inter.

Zidane could not be the coach for that last game, as it is rumored that he will be leaving immediately. His side won just one game out of the last five played across all competitions. If such a thing happens, it is said that Real Madrid will go to look for Mauricio Pochettino or Raúl.
