After thrashing Barca in the Super Copa many Madridistas thought that this season would be another Madrid dominant season. However things did not turn out as expected and Barca learned from its mistakes and signed Paulinho and Dembele immediately, and Paulinho who was much criticised in the beginning turned into a blessing in disguise. Madrid hopes of winning a domestic title this season was shattered when Laganes knocked them out in the Copa Del Rey tie and went through to semi finals. At this stage Real are 19 points behind leaders Barca and have a game extra against Leganes.
Getting knocked out in the Champions League could prove to be the last nail in the Coffin for Zidane who has been facing a lot criticism from all around Europe.
On Valentine's Day some people will be spending time with their partner but for football fans it's a day to celebrate even more. The 81000 tickets were sold within an hour which shows how much this match means for the football fans.
It's make or break for Madrid as the only realistic chance thy have to win a title this season is by beating the elite of europe and their first victim has to be PSG.
