The height of El Clásico, Ronaldo v Messi and arguably the two most dominant teams of the last decade or so. However which team was more successful during this time period.

I think I lean towards Madrid barely

That seems like an oversimplification though.

It’s not just that they won 1 more UCL, they won it 3 times in a row. That’s absolutely a far more impressive feat than winning the series a few extra times.

The mental fortitude required to win it the 3rd time alone is astonishing. UCL is the WC of club football. Imagine how easy it would be to choke that last final. Christ, I’m getting nervous just thinking about taking to the pitch under those conditions.

3x UCL you just have to worry about not losing the yearly tournament. it’s not that hard on a player whatsoever

winning trebles and sextuples in a single season is incredibly hard. You have to perform in every competition you see in There’s a reason only pep guardiola has won multiple in his career.

and Madrid a supposed “powerhouse” has never registered a single sextuple or treble win in 125 years of existence.

That's why man city is simply the best team now. Outclassed la liga by a mile

Man city won a treble in less than 10 years

something fans of clubs who have been alive for 125 years wish they had!
