Real Madrid: Sergio Ramos, the header that changed history

–

But on May 24, it will be remembered even more with the passage of time as it is the designated date on which the ‘Ricardo Corazón de León’ of the Madridistas, Sergio Ramos put his steel head in Lisbon six years ago to draw with his choppy and unstoppable hit the goal that changed history forever. That agonizing goal at 92:48 in the Da Luz stadium it avoided that the athletes could boast of a Champions League, the first, that they would have been worth ten (getting it against Madrid they already had the sky won). That last goal also prevented the club from experiencing moments of tension in the offices after Florentino’s return to the Presidency in 2009, misguiding with the sword in those seasons especially in Europe (three consecutive semifinals failed). That goal stopped the dismissal of Ancelotti, a coach who managed his human resources like no other and who won over the fans with his lordship and knowing how to be. That goal put the red carpet so that in the following years the ‘Orejonas’ fell like churros. Ramos’s header cleared the bad luck and opened the door of glory for a club that has managed to reinvent itself in the 21st century until accumulating more European Cups in color (7) than in black and white (6). Conclusion, Sergio Ramos forever changed the HISTORY of Real Madrid.

He himself confessed it to Realmadrid TV a few months ago: “Several years have passed, but it seems like yesterday. Despite the fact that football passes very quickly, one does not stop getting excited. The history of our club changed because it had been a long time since the Champions League had been won, in addition when practically everything was lost. After that moment I told my mother that I could die in peace no matter what happened. And yes, I think it is my best goal, the goal of my career, for everything it represents not only for me personally, but for the world of football and for our club. ”

It is curious because it was not the winning goal, simply the one that enabled the extension in which they would arrive the triumphal goals of Bale, Marcelo and Cristiano. But for white fans Sergio’s heroic goal will always be ‘The goal of the Tenth’. Tears spilled in the stands with that goal, not the next three. It was a saving goal, a dream goal, with that corner perfectly drawn by Luka Modric (another of Madrid’s icons) and topped with the fury, firmness, conviction, ambition and hierarchy of the true leader of this Madrid. Sergio, The Tarzan of Beds, the idol of several generations, the heart of a shield that represents with pride and courage. SR4 is the winning label of Real Madrid. Without a doubt, he will always be remembered for the header that changed history forever …
