In the derby, an irrepressible Real Madrid delivers the opening blow.

A great cup by Real Madrid to start the derby rally. In less than a month, there were three competitions, the first of which has already gone to the white side. The first match was the Spanish Super Cup, where Ancelotti’s team made an early impression and advanced to the championship game for the first time this year.

After losing to Atlético in the league, Real Madrid needed to make amends, and they did it with the first chance they got: they will play in Sunday’s final and deprive their rivals of a championship. Definitely a jolt of optimism for the future.

Madrid players celebrating after the win

Since they lost to Atlético on September 24, which was their lone loss of the season, Real Madrid has developed into a machine that wins games. They have now won 17 of their last 20 games and drawn three, with victories coming from Rayo, Sevilla, and Betis.

The Whites have won 85 percent of their games across all competitions since the distant defeat at the Metropolitano. a winning run that has them atop La Liga, leading their group in the Champions League round of 16, and one win away from their first championship of the year.
