    The Downfall of Real Madrid Side-lining Keylor Navas Because of his sharp reflexes he was key player on their more triumphant campaigns. The unjustifiable reason behind him being on the bench is that they are persistent on giving Thibaut Courtois more and more second chances, despite his failure to replicate Keylor Navas' key saves and lead Real Madrid to the silverware that is needed to bring the team back to what it once was. 1. The Constant Search For a Striker That Fits Despite buying who was arguably the Premier League’s best striker, Eden Hazard, they cannot find a striker that fits or replaces, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner, Ronaldo. The replacement, Hazard, has been dubbed the second worst Galactico by Marca, after the biggest flop in history, Michael Owen. 2. Confidence With the departure of Ronaldo and Zidane prior to last season the team’s morale has gone down and the once great team has started to look fragile. Then the moment that all Real Madrid fans were waiting for happened. Zidane came back but now with the lack of budget to go into depth after the signing of the flop Eden Hazard means that the deluded men behind Los Blanco’s think that Zidane, one of the most successful mangers in the history of football should leave the club as they have nothing else to blame it on So, what does everybody have to say about it? • 'Success made us lose our intensity': Real Madrid president Florentino Perez claims their own triumphs is the reason behind the current downfall • And without any European success this season and the last have been.

  • Análise De Centralidade Da Equipe Do Real Madrid Nos Jogos Decisivos Da Uefa Champions League 2015-2016
    Simpósio de Engenharia de Produção Universidade Federal de Goiás – Regional Catalão 09 a 11 de agosto, Catalão, Goiás, Brasil ANÁLISE DE CENTRALIDADE DA EQUIPE DO REAL MADRID NOS JOGOS DECISIVOS DA UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE 2015-2016 Fernando Paes Barreto Machado, UFF, [email protected] Eduardo Uchoa Barboza, UFF, [email protected] Resumo: O futebol se tornou muito mais que um esporte e, hoje, figura como um dos maiores mercados em termos de movimentação financeira em todo mundo. A Europa continua sendo o principal palco das competições que mais atraem investimentos e público. Neste universo, indicadores e estatísticas são cada vez mais utilizados para nortear a tomada de decisões. Apesar do volume de informações existentes, pouco se discute a respeito da centralidade dos jogadores para a equipe. Dessa forma, este artigo visa compreender melhor, por meio de análises, a centralidade da equipe do Real Madrid nos jogos decisivos da UEFA Champions League 2015- 2016. Para isso, foram coletadas, no site da UEFA, as Redes de Passes dos sete jogos que são escopo deste estudo, ou seja, das oitavas até a final. Por meio do software UCINET, essas matrizes foram simetrizadas e, posteriormente, analisadas segundo três medidas de centralidade: grau, autovetor e intermediação de fluxo. Palavras-chave: Teoria dos Grafos, Centralidade, Futebol 1. INTRODUÇÃO O mercado do futebol vem consolidando ao longo dos últimos anos sua capacidade de movimentar um grande volume de recursos financeiros, principalmente no que se refere à propaganda e transferências de jogadores (PLUMLEY e FLINT, 2015). Apesar do crescimento do mercado americano, chinês e do Oriente Médio, a Europa continua sendo o destino dos principais jogadores e palco dos campeonatos mais valiosos.
