Visiting the Bernabeau: why Madrid is such a great team
Many fans would see the Bernabeau as the beating heart of European football, and Madrid tickets represent a pilgrimage to a stadium immersed in history and glory. To say you’ve visited Real’s infamous home is a real conversation piece, and much more importantly an experience you will treasure for the rest of your life.
Madrid is the world’s richest club, raking in around 440million Euros revenue, and it’s the world’s richest club for good reason. Real are an iconic club, steeped in former glory and still in many people’s eyes, the most prestigious club in Spain.
For most players in Europe, the chance to play for Madrid is the dream. Ronaldo left Man United to fulfil just that ambition. Real were formed in 1902 and since then have enjoyed unprecedented success. Nine Champions League victories, five consecutively in the 50s is a feat not many clubs will ever match.
Madrid tickets let you feel the history of the Bernabeau stadium. When watching the new breed of Ronaldo and co, you may wish to cast your mind back to Di Stefano and Puskas – genuine legends, whose reputations practically cross into mythology. The former presence of these stars is practically tangible.
Jose Mourinho looks set to re-ignite Real as the footballing force they once were, on the backs of modern mega stars like Ronaldo, Ozil and Benzema. The power struggle between Real and their Catalan rivals has never been so fierce. President Perez has gathered a set of stars that are the envy of the football world.
Madrid tickets allow you to surpass the more mundane reality of everyday football and let you enter a theatre of sporting drama. The imposing Bernabeau seats up to 85,454 people and the atmosphere is electric. The sense of occasion for any Real match is truly that of a royal performance. The famous white shirts ooze charisma, and you really feel part of something historic.
