“(Cristiano Ronaldo) Was Devastated” – Jose Mourinho Recalls Rare Tearful Night With Real Madrid

In 2014, Real Madrid won their 10th UEFA Champions League title, which they refer to as La Decima. This was a significant achievement for the team, as it ended a decade of UCL title drought following their ninth title in 2002. The team had struggled to maintain their dominance in European football and had not reached another UCL final since then.

The journey to La Decima was not an easy one for Real Madrid. They faced several challenges, including a difficult group stage and a tough knockout phase. However, they persevered and eventually made it to the final against Atletico Madrid. The match was highly anticipated and closely watched by fans around the world.

On the night of the final, Cristiano Ronaldo, one of Real Madrid's star players, was devastated. Despite being a key player in the team's success, Ronaldo had been struggling with injuries and form throughout the season. He was not at his best during the match and was unable to contribute much to the team's attack.

After the final whistle blew, Real Madrid emerged victorious, winning their 10th UCL title. However, Ronaldo was left feeling downcast and disappointed in himself. Jose Mourinho, who was the manager of Real Madrid at the time, recalled a rare tearful night with the team after the match.

Mourinho spoke about how he had never seen Ronaldo so emotional before. He said that Ronaldo was visibly upset and that he could tell how much the loss meant to him. Mourinho tried to console Ronaldo, but he was unable to lift his spirits.

Despite the disappointment of not winning the UCL title, Real Madrid went on to have a successful season. They finished second in La Liga and reached the semifinals of the Copa del Rey. However, Ronaldo's struggles continued throughout the season, and he was eventually sold to Juventus in the summer of 2018.
