What happened in the minutes following Real Madrid’s heavy defeat in London? How did the players react, and who took charge of lifting the team’s morale? On El Chiringuito, Josep Pedrerol shared details of the post-match atmosphere inside the locker room.
According to the show's host, there was a moment of unity behind closed doors. "There was a sort of conspiracy in the locker room," Pedrerol revealed. "Almost all the players were present, and several of them spoke up."
Four key figures stepped forward: Valverde, Vinicius, Mbappé, and Bellingham. In the face of a 3-0 loss, their words were filled with pride and defiance. "We have to show that we are Real Madrid, that we have 15 Champions League titles," they reportedly said, rallying the team around the club's identity.
The players also identified what needs to happen first if they're to spark a comeback: "We have to score in the first 15 minutes." Their confidence was so strong, according to Pedrerol, that when they declared, “We’ll come back,” the locker room responded with applause.
