I said I was gonna buy the shirt of the ACN champions. I'm a man of his words, and here it is. I was wondering about the streets of Madrid when I found a little sports shop with many rare football shirts (such as Mexico, Nigeria or Spain of the 2006 World Cup). Nigeria was the only one that fitted me, so I took that one for just 15€. But it wasn't until I arrived home when I realised I had kept my promise.
The shirt is no big deal, just a normal template, as Adidas has been doing with Nigeria during the past few years.

Team of big contrasts between the players' quality

REAL MADRID CLUB DE FÚTBOL 
-Founded: 6 March 1902
-9 European Cups (Last one: 2002); 32 Spanish Leagues (Last one: 2012)
-Biggest rival: FC Barcelona

-The club is the richest football club in terms of annual revenue, generating €479.5million in 2011 and the second most valuable, worth €1.8billion.

One of the first shirts I had. You can notice this collar is the one of the kid's shirt, because it has a different shape from the original one. I've been remembering the good old days when I've seen the team photo with Van Nistelrooy, Beckham, Míchel Salgado, Raúl and Roberto Carlos. That team was very different than the one these days.

I do think Mourinho is between the three best coaches in the world. However, he isn't doing anything but harming Real Madrid, and in my opinion this season should be his last opportunity to show he can win something important.
