Real Madrid Home 2015/2016

This Real Madrid Away shirt was on their shoulders during season 2015/2016. New manager Rafael Benítez, Real Madrid remained unbeaten in the league until a 3–2 loss at Sevilla on the matchday 11. His reign is remembered by multiple big wins achieved both in La Liga and the Champions League. They trashed some of their opponents like a 6–0 vs Espanyol, 8–0 vs Malmö, 10–2 vs Rayo Vallecano and others.

In the Copa del Rey round of 32, Real accidentally fielded an ineligible player, who was suspended from the previous season (when he was representing a different team), resulting in the team’s controversial disqualification from the tournament by the competition judge despite protests from President Pérez. In the meantime, Real comfortably topped their UCL group with 16 points and a +16 goal difference.

Benítez was not a populair figure with the fans and after displeasure amongst his players, Perez sacked him. Benítez’s departure ultimately led to the promotion of Zinedine Zidane to his first head coaching role. Under Zidane, Madrid managed to turn the odds in its favor, ultimately winning the Champions League, something no one expected. The notable results include a 2–1 away victory over reigning treble winners Barcelona.

Another fantastic comeback came against Wolfsburg in the Champions League quarter-finals. After losing the away game 0–2, Madrid erased the deficit and won 3–0 at home. Courtesy of a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick. As well as a 12-game winning streak to conclude the league campaign. Real finished second, with 90 points and just one point behind champions Barcelona, coming agonizingly close to clinching the title and overcoming a 12-point deficit in the process.

Finally, on 28 May, Madrid did it again. Topping their city rivals Atletico after a thrilling shoot-out. None other than CR7 decided the last penalty securing their eleventh Champions League title.
