While players may change at the Santiago Bernabeu, one constant: the conviction that the European Cup rightfully belongs to Madrid, and regardless of the situation, they will always find a way to succeed.

Time and again, Madrid has faced potential defeat but has managed to turn the tide, drawing on a tenacious spirit that, while bordering on arrogance, commands respect.
