Real Madrid On the Verge Of UCL Exit After 2-0 Loss To Shakhtar Donetsk

Posted by

Real Madrid have played in 25 Champions League campaigns and this could be a record breaking season, just not in a good way. Sitting 3rd in Group B below Borussia Monchengladbach and tonight’s victors Shakhtar Donetsk.

With just 7 points from 5 games, do you think Real will be able to bring it back and qualify for the knockout stages or will they be destined for Europa League.

Dentinho scored Shakhtar’s first goal tonight as Raphael Varane let the ball pass him and go freely to the feet of the Brazilian. Dentinho was then able to power it past the Belgian Thibaut Courtois in goal.

In the 82′ Manor Solomon then sealed the 3 point for Donetsk by smashing the ball into the back of the net after running from the halfway line with the ball and striking it at the edge of the box. Courtois was beat again as he was too slow to reach down to his right hand side.
What is going wrong for Real Madrid and how are they going to fix it as they currently sit 4th in La Liga, 7 points behind the leading team.
