The victories have disappeared from the map of the Real. The worsening of his football has led to a streak of results unknown in more recent times. Specifically, since Imanol
Sheriff has taken over his post. In his three different periods as head of the bench, never have so many games been linked without winning. With the defeat against Atlético de Madrid, there are six in the league. And with three more from the Europa League, nine.
Within this mangrove of setbacks is the tie in Naples that resulted in qualification in Europe. The Real of Imanol, aside from the continental joy, chain half a dozen league games drawing or losing. It is the first time that happens to Orio's coach in the first team. So far, his winless streak has spanned five games. No more.
The negative dynamic is reminiscent of the one that Real starred in when football resumed after confinement. In fact, the six adverse results that the Real de Imanol they outperform the team's five winless games in June. So the scoring rate was even lower. The draw against Osasuna (1-1) in the first match after the outbreak of the pandemic was joined by four consecutive defeats against Alavés (2-0), Real Madrid (1-2), Celta (0-1) and Getafe (2 -1). Since the victory at Cádiz, Real did tie three points in a list of draws against Villarreal (1-1), Alavés (0-0) and Eibar (1-1). The last three blows with Barcelona, Levante and Atlético de Madrid stain the record.
