Real Madrid's superstitions ahead of the Champions League finals

"Los Blancos" are willing to win another final, this time against Liverpool in Paris. Let's take a look at the club's traditions before the finals, writes MARCA, forwarded Periscope.

Very Secret Festivals

First rule not to talk about celebrations. Real Madrid has prepared everything in case she wins the trophy, but remains a secret well kept.

Press conference superstitions

Karim Benzema was the player chosen by Real Madrid to represent the club at the press conference before the 1-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain on February 14th. The fact that Los Blankos lost that game prevented him from attending his next press conferences.

So Marcello and Thibaut Courtois were Real Madrid players who spoke to the press.

VIP aircraft

Real Madrid always rents a plane to relatives, agents, former players, honorary members, journalists and celebrities. Journalists Jorge Bustos and Manuel Jabois are considered regular, while Richard Gere was present at the League Champions final since 2016 in Milan.

Nacho Pena: Real Madrid's lucky host

Direc reporter TV debuted in the Lisbon final, and since then it has always been in charge of encouraging Real Madrid fans and announcing team formations and goals.

Banderella

Real Madrid will once again discover the huge banner that says "The Final History, the vamos Real," which means, by the end, let's go Real Madrid.

Cross: Last one off the bus

This ritual is performed in all season matches, especially in important duels. The last one coming off the bus is Tony Croos. It always does.

Aircraft crew

Real Madrid arranged for the aircraft crew for finals in Lisbon, Milan and Cardiff to be the same. Tradition began on the road to Lisbon, after Los Blankos defeated 4-0 Bayern Munich in Allianz Arena in the semifinals. Tradition broke down in Kiev because of the distance and change of the aircraft.

Special photo:

There's only one tradition not followed, because Cristiano Ronaldo left the club. The Portuguese star Marcelo and Casemiro always took the same picture on their way to the town where he hosted the Champions League final.
