Real Madrid's women drew 2-2 with Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Wednesday, courtesy of strikes from Athenea del Castillo and Lineth Beerensteyn. A decent result on paper - but coach Pau Quesada wasn't in the mood for celebrating.
The Spaniard insisted his squad doesn't get the recognition it deserves, pointing the finger squarely at Barcelona's overwhelming dominance as the reason why.
The result leaves Real Madrid 10th in the UWCL standings with just three points from three matches. Every single game - against Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester City, and now Bayern - has ended level. Consistent? Sure. Thrilling? Debatable.
Since launching their women's programme in 2020, Real Madrid have yet to lift a single major honour. They've finished runners-up in Liga F on five occasions and lost the 2023 Copa de la Reina final. Close, but never quite close enough.
It's hard to argue with Quesada's frustration when Barcelona keep hoovering up silverware. Four Champions League titles. Seven consecutive Liga F crowns. And across 26 Clásico encounters, the Catalans have made it look worryingly one-sided, ESPN reports.
Being good isn't enough when your rivals are historically great.
