Radical Turnaround after 4-0; Florentino's Reversal Plus Incoming Bomb: Never Again

Florentino has had enough of Barça's humiliations in women's soccer

The 4-0 in the women's classic has stung Real Madrid. It's been 15 classics since Real Madrid started competing in this diviosn. Out of those, 15 wins for Barça, 53 goals in favor of Barça and 6 in favor of Real Madrid.

One thrashing after another and no titles in the fifth year of the project, with coach Toril now being questioned. Di Stéfano again asked for his resignation after the latest failure.

Is Women's Soccer Entering a New Dimension?

The front page of Marca five years ago hasn't been fulfillled. Back then, after confirming the purchase of Tacón, it announced: "Women's soccer is entering another dimension."

The dimension remains the same and Florentino Pérez has had enough. The president of Real Madrid can't stand losing, not even playing checkers. That's why he's decided to find solutions to turn the situation around in his favor.

He tried to sign Alexia Putellas to weaken Barça, but the blaugrana captain rejected the offer. He also tried other key Barça players, such as Mariona Caldentey, but the Mallorcan preferred to go to Arsenal.

The club has been signing more and more players over the last five years. Even so, it hasn't been able to make its coach's predictions come true: "The distance between Barça and Real Madrid is getting smaller."

The Bomb that Florentino Pérez is Preparing

The cries of "Toril, resign" heard in the stands at the Di Stéfano have made Florentino Pérez react. The president of Real Madrid is willing to reset and start from scratch in a different way.

Real Madrid's main objective now is to find a coach who can make the team competitive, something that hasn't happened in the last five years.

The chosen one is Jonathan Giráldez. He is the current coach of the Washington Spirit who left Barça last summer after taking it to the top.

Giráldez signed a three-year deal with Washington Spirit this summer. However, Florentino Pérez is confident of convincing him to repeat his successful experiences at Barça at Real Madrid.

This is the bomb that Florentino Pérez has prepared to end Barça's insulting dominance in women's soccer. The president of Real Madrid has had enough of signing so many checks just to finish second in Spain and far from the top places in Europe.

If Real Madrid has a women's team, that's to compete for all titles, which isn't the case right now. In addition, the fact that Barça is the dominant team further aggravates the feeling of failure that exists at Real Madrid.
