Kroos on Real Madrid “Two seasons without winning is unacceptable at Madrid, period.
The results on the pitch are due to the poor relationships within the club,” Kroos stated. Speaking specifically about Real Madrid’s performance in the Clasico , Kroos admitted that the team never truly believed they could win. “They were probably motivated to win the Clasico , but it wasn’t enough.
The defeat was already accepted before it even started,” the club legend remarked. “I think they were happy with this result before the game began. The second half was more balanced, but I didn’t score.
Simply put, congratulations to Barça,” he added. Marcus Rashford gave Barcelona the lead with a direct free-kick, although Kroos defended Thibaut Courtois from criticism over the goal. Toni Kroos was critical of Real Madrid.
