With a brace from Vinicius, Real Madrid completed a thrashing that began in Madrid with the 3-0 win. The early sending off of Bernardo Silva for a handball inside the area also dashed hopes of a historic comeback in front of their own fans and once again City were left on the road to nowhere. And once again, Real Madrid has been the executioner. The Merengue team has become a real headache for Pep Guardiola, being the team that has eliminated him the most times from the European Cup. https://twitter.com/USER_ID/status/2034024604436509012 How many times has Real Madrid knocked Pep Guardiola out of the Champions League?

Real Madrid is the team that has eliminated Pep Guardiola the most times from the Champions League and also the only one that has done so on more than one occasion. Teams such as Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea, Inter Milan, among others, have managed to beat him, but only Los Blancos have done so on more than one occasion, five in total. Atletico Madrid: 1 time Barcelona: 1 time Chelsea: 1 time Inter Milan: 1 time Liverpool: 1 time Lyon: 1 time Monaco: 1 time Tottenham Hotspur: 1 time These numbers reflect that, at least in the European Cup, there is only one team that seems to have measured Guardiola and that is Real Madrid. This defeat is even more unexpected considering the diametrical disparity in experience between the two coaches: on the one hand, Pep Guardiola, one of the most successful strategists in history, while on the other hand, Arbeloa is beginning his career as a first division coach, and he is doing so with none other than Europe's top champion.
