Not Pretty, But It Counts: Real Madrid Rode The Luck Past Celta Vigo

Real Madrid snatched a 2-1 victory against Celta Vigo, but as a fan, it feels bittersweet. Just because we scored more doesn’t mean we played better. In today’s game, possession, chances created, and even advanced stats like XG tell a different story. We often hear that the team that scores the most deserves to win, but what about the quality of the performance? This match was a reminder that winning isn’t everything—especially when you’re not proud of how you got there. I’ve seen better performances from Real Madrid this season, and it’s hard to celebrate a win that feels more like a postponement of our fate in the title race. What do you think? Is it fair to say we deserved this win?
