People are talking about that 'institutional muscle memory' so appropriately associated with Real Madrid. La Decimocuarta (the 14th) awaits, but Liverpool, with six triumphs, are no historical upstarts themselves.
In the European domain, the Reds have recently been proclaimed the 'comeback kings' but we all know, this season, Karim Benzema & Co have been conjuring miraculous recoveries. Perhaps, Pep Guardiola's cathartic tears after holding his Premier League cup of joy was a release from those soul-wrenching blurry moments of late destruction by Madrid’s daydream believers.
