Real "Ruins" Madrid's First Match, the Spanish Super Cup!

Just how strong was Real "Ruins" Madrid... really?

The curtain rose today.

Forward Enriquez, 92!

Backup forward Gonzalo Herain, 89!

Luxurious, wasn't it?!

Enriquez had only been a key rotation player last season, not a regular starter.

Which meant Herain was a backup's backup.

What did an 89 even mean?

Back then, Talista had been called a Serie A elite striker at 86 just because of that ruthless edge.

With an 89, he could compete for a starting striker position at any top club.

But at Real Madrid...

Goalkeeper Louis, 95!

A superstar!

Far above Barcelona goalkeeper Kahn's 89 from last season!

Real Madrid's left back, Robert Junior, 95!

Another superstar!

Real Madrid center back Ravellan, 91!

Real Madrid center back Rubio, 91!

Their average level really was a notch higher than that of their bitter rivals Barcelona's Mebarak and Clement.

Yet this center-back pairing was known by countless professional football commentators as "Real Madrid's Achilles' heel."

Thinking back to when Lu Yang had led Nagy, rated 79, against Real Madrid, one could see just how absurd that victory had been.

Real Madrid right back Sanchis, 86!

That was a rather unexpected rating.

Too low!

Sanchis might have been good enough to start for most teams, including top clubs, but at Real Madrid, he truly wasn't qualified.

It also showed just how "weak" Real Madrid was in that position.

No wonder Real Madrid had so often been torn apart through Sanchis's side.

That was the tragedy of an ordinary player.

Sanchis was absolutely hardworking and had an excellent attitude. Whether on the pitch or off it, he never complained about any task.

Yet during the team's breaks, players like him were always the ones fans petitioned to have replaced.

It was already impossible this season, but next season, the fans
