The 2011–12 season was the 108th season in Real Madrid Club de Fútbol's history and their 81st consecutive season in La Liga, the top division of Spanish football. It covered a period from 1 July 2011 to 30 June 2012.

Real Madrid began the season finishing runners-up in the Supercopa de España to Barcelona, losing 5–4 on aggregate. The team then went on to produce a magnificent season, winning a record 32nd La Liga title and setting a number of league records, including 100 points amassed in a single season, a total of 121 goals scored, a goal difference of +89, 16 away games won, and 32 wins overall.[1] They also competed in the UEFA Champions League for the 15th successive season,[2] losing in the semi-finals to Bayern Munich on penalties (after a 3–3 aggregate tie) in heartbreaking fashion. Madrid entered the Copa del Rey as the defending champions, but lost 3–4 on aggregate in the quarter-finals to Barcelona. In the same season, Cristiano Ronaldo became the fastest player to reach 100 goals scored in Spanish league history. In reaching 101 goals in 92 games, Ronaldo surpassed Real Madrid legend Ferenc Puskás, who scored 100 goals in 105 matches. Ronaldo set a new club mark for individual goals scored in one year (60) and became the first player ever to score against all 19 opposition teams in a single season.[3]

The season has been often termed by some newspapers as "La Liga de los Récords" (Spanish for "The League of the Records") as Real Madrid broke several long-standing La Liga records, the most prominent being the highest number of points in a single La Liga season. Their total of 100 was one point better than the previous record set by Barcelona in the 2009–10 season. Real Madrid also recorded the most goals in a league season with 121, surpassing the previous record held by the Real Madrid side that scored 107 goals during the 1989–90 season.

Season overview

[edit]

Pre-season

[edit]

Real Madrid commenced their summer transfer activity on 9 May, signing Turkish central midfielder Nuri Şahin for six seasons from Borussia Dortmund on a transfer reported to be worth €10 million.[4] Versatile Turkish midfielder Hamit Altıntop was signed for four seasons on a free transfer from Bayern Munich on 19 May,[5] but was discovered to have a prolapsed disc on 23 June,[6] undergoing a successful operation four days later.[7] The club announced on 21 May that veteran Polish goalkeeper Jerzy Dudek's contract would not be renewed;[8] he subsequently retired.[9] Former Castilla winger José Callejón was brought back after three seasons at Espanyol for a reported fee of €5 million on 23 May.[10]

Real Madrid fired Director General Jorge Valdano on 25 May after a strained relationship over sporting decisions between him and manager José Mourinho.[11] President Florentino Pérez supported Mourinho's request to "be able to manage the team with autonomy"[12] in response to tensions during the previous season's winter transfer window and a public feud regarding Karim Benzema following a 1–1 draw against Almería.[13] Valdano was reported to be paid €3.5 million to release him from the remaining two years on his contract[13] and was replaced by José Ángel Sánchez.[14] Mourinho subsequently became head of football operations in addition to his role as head coach[15] with former player and special adviser to Pérez Zinedine Zidane as the new director of football for the first team.[16]

Real Madrid continued their transfer activity on 27 June, signing teenage French central defender Raphaël Varane from Lens for six seasons on a reported €10 million transfer.[17] On 1 July, Royston Drenthe and David Mateos returned from their loan spells at Hércules[18] and AEK Athens,[19] respectively, while Emmanuel Adebayor returned to Manchester City following a six-month loan.[20] Mateos was loaned out ten days later to Real Zaragoza with Zaragoza having an option to purchase the player permanently at the end of the season,[21] and Drenthe was loaned to Everton late on the final day of the transfer window.[22] Portuguese wingback Fábio Coentrão transferred from Benfica for €30 million[23] on 5 July and signed a six-year contract.[24]

Real Madrid started the European leg of their pre-season world tour with a triumph over newly promoted Bundesliga team Hertha BSC on 27 July in front of a sold out Olympiastadion.[41] Patrick Ebert opened the scoring for Hertha, but Ronaldo equalized from a long-range free kick and Benzema added two goals for a 3–1 victory.[42] Three days later Real Madrid defeated Championship side Leicester City 2–1 to win the npower Challenge Cup.[43] Callejón scored the opening goal and Benzema converted a rebound following a shot off the goalpost by Marcelo before Lloyd Dyer added a late consolation goal.[44]

José Mourinho's five-game touchline ban in the UEFA Champions League due to accusatory statements following the first leg of the previous season's Champions League semi-final was partially upheld following an appeal to UEFA on 29 July.[45] He was originally suspended for five matches, with the final game suspended for a probational period of three years, and fined €50,000[46] for accusing Barcelona of receiving favorable treatment from UEFA and for severely criticizing German referee Wolfgang Stark.[47] After serving the first game of his suspension in the second leg, Mourinho had the remaining four matches of his ban reduced to a two-game suspension with a potential two further games over a three-year probationary period.[48] The original fine to Mourinho was upheld along with a €20,000 fine assessed to Real Madrid for crowd trouble.[45]

The club traveled to Guangzhou, China, directly from Leicester on 1 August,[49] and signed a letter of intent the following day with Guangzhou Evergrande involving club cooperation, potential player exchanges, and the opening of the largest football academy in China.[50] On 3 August, Real Madrid defeated Chinese Super League leaders Guangzhou Evergrande 7–1,[51][52] with goals from Sami Khedira, Özil, Benzema twice, Ronaldo, Jesé, and Ángel Di María.[53] The following day, attacking midfielder Sergio Canales joined Valencia on loan for two seasons with Valencia retaining a purchase option of €12 million at the end of each season.[54] Real Madrid concluded their pre-season world tour with all victories on 6 August,[55] defeating Tianjin Teda 6–0[56] with goals from Kaká, Di María, Gonzalo Higuaín, Ronaldo and a double by Benzema.[57]

August

[edit]

Real Madrid opened their competitive season with a 2–2 draw at home in the first leg of the 2011 Supercopa de España against Barcelona on 14 August.[58] Özil scored after 13 minutes following an assist from Benzema, but goals from David Villa and Lionel Messi against the run of play gave Barcelona the lead at halftime.[59] Xabi Alonso shot through traffic during a corner sequence for the equalizer nine minutes into the second half.[60][61] Three days later in the return leg at Camp Nou, Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 3–2 to win 5–4 on aggregate.[62][63] Andrés Iniesta beat the offside trap and scored first for Barcelona, but Ronaldo redirected a cross to equalize five minutes later.[64] Messi scored just before halftime following a failed clearance of a corner kick by Real Madrid and a subsequent backheel assist from Gerard Piqué to give Barcelona a 2–1 lead at halftime.[65] Benzema leveled the score late in the second half following a scramble from a corner kick, but an Adriano cross allowed Messi to score the winning goal in the 88th minute.[66] Marcelo received a straight red card in stoppage time for a tackle on Cesc Fàbregas, creating an ensuing scuffle between the two sides that led to Mourinho confronting Barcelona assistant coach Tito Vilanova with a poke in the eye[67] and expulsions of Villa and Özil.[68] Six days later, the Royal Spanish Football Federation opened disciplinary investigations against both Mourinho and Vilanova[69][70] that could have potentially resulted in a 12-game suspension for Mourinho[71] but instead suspended him for two future Supercopa de España matches and fined €600.[72] Real Madrid was additionally fined €180.[72]

Real Madrid players sporting their brand new black kits in an away match against Zaragoza

Real Madrid's La Liga campaign was scheduled to begin on 21 August at home against Athletic Bilbao,[73] but the Spanish Footballers' Association, with representation from all 42 teams in the top two divisions,[74] unanimously elected to strike[75] after failing to reach a collective bargaining agreement with the Liga de Fútbol Profesional,[76] causing the postponement of the first weekend of fixtures.[77] The team won their seventh consecutive Santiago Bernabéu Trophy, defeating Turkish Süper Lig side Galatasaray on 24 August.[78] Before the match, Real Madrid officially presented their five new summer signings[79] and honored their three youth team players on the Spanish under-19 squad that won the 2011 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship.[80] Selçuk İnan scored early for Galatasaray from close range, but a pair of assists from man of the match Xabi Alonso[81] to Sergio Ramos and Benzema led Real Madrid to a 2–1 victory in the annual friendly.[82] Real Madrid's La Liga season began with a 0–6 win at Real Zaragoza on 28 August,[83] with goals from Marcelo, Alonso, Kaká and a hat-trick by Ronaldo,[84] including his 100th goal as a Real Madrid player.[85] The win was the most lopsided away victory on opening day in Spanish top flight history.[86]

On 31 August, the final day of the summer transfer window, Real Madrid loaned out midfielders Pedro León, Fernando Gago and Royston Drenthe.[87] Pedro León joined Getafe,[88] the team he was purchased from a year ago,[89] and Gago joined Roma,[90] with both Getafe and Roma retaining the option to acquire their respective player for €6 million at the end of the season.[91][92] Drenthe joined Everton for a season-long loan in a deal that was finalized late on deadline day.[22]

Real Madrid's first La Liga home match resulted in a 4–2 victory over local rivals Getafe on 10 September.[93] Benzema scored his first two goals in La Liga while Ronaldo converted a penalty and Higuaín added a late goal.[94][95] The victory boosted Real Madrid to a two-point advantage over Barcelona,[96] as Barcelona drew 2–2 earlier in the day at Real Sociedad.[97] Four days later, Real Madrid defeated Dinamo Zagreb 1–0 in on Matchday 1 of the UEFA Champions League despite Mourinho serving his second of three touchline bans in the competition and a second yellow card to Marcelo for diving in the penalty area.[98] Di María scored the lone goal early in the second half,[99] while Ronaldo received stitches to his right ankle after the match.[100] The injury forced Ronaldo out of the starting lineup against Levante on 18 September,[101] a match Real Madrid lost 1–0 on a second half counterattack goal from Arouna Koné.[102] Real Madrid played with a man down when Khedira received his second yellow card in the 40th minute for defending Di María from Sergio Ballesteros during a fracas;[103] Mourinho later commented Khedira "fell for the trap."[104] Three days later Real Madrid again failed to score,[105] drawing 0–0 at Racing Santander in a match in which Varane made his official debut.[106] On 24 September, the team defeated Rayo Vallecano 6–2 at home.[107] Michu scored for the visitors 17 seconds into the match following an intercepted backpass from Lassana Diarra,[108] but goals from Ronaldo and Higuaín lifted Real Madrid to a 2–1 halftime lead.[109] Ronaldo and Michu scored again early in the second half[110] shortly before a second yellow card to Di María for an intentional handball.[111] Despite the numerical disadvantage, Ronaldo completed his hat-trick and Varane and Benzema added goals in the victory.[112] Varane, at 18 years and 152 days, became the youngest foreign player to score in a competitive match for Real Madrid.[113] Hamit Altıntop made his official debut[114] in a 3–0 victory[115] over Ajax on Matchday 2 of the Champions League on 27 September.[116] Ronaldo,[117] Kaká, and Benzema each scored a goal and provided an assist.[118]

In the second half, Real Madrid leveled Barcelona with the goals from Ronaldo and Benzema.[257] On 28 January, Real Madrid extended their lead in La Liga to seven points after beating Real Zaragoza home 3–1 while Barcelona could only conjure up a goalless draw away to Villarreal.[258] Zaragoza took the lead in the 11th minute when Ángel Lafita scored for the visitors. Real Madrid, however, once again came from behind to finish with a comfortable win with goals from Kaká, Ronaldo and Özil.[259]

February

[edit]

On 4 February, Real Madrid started the month with a 0–1 away win over Getafe. The lone goal, a header, was scored by Sergio Ramos in the first half.[260] On 12 February, Madrid extended their lead in La Liga to ten points after winning 4–2 at home to Levante, while Barcelona had lost the day before to Osasuna in Pamplona.[261] Levante opened the scoring with a header from Gustavo Cabral. The turning point came after a red card to Vicente Iborra, giving away a penalty which was scored by Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo then added two more goals, including a sumptuous third, before Levante pulled another back through Arouna Koné. Karim Benzema then curled home a fourth for Real to finish the scoring.[262] On 18 February, Real Madrid continued their good form in La Liga by beating Racing de Santander at the Bernabéu 4–0. Benzema netted a brace and Ronaldo and Ángel Di María each scored one goal in the comfortable win.

The game, played in snowy conditions in Moscow, was led by Madrid for the majority of the match with a goal from Ronaldo, but a last-minute equalizer by Pontus Wernbloom denied the victory for the visitors.[264] On 26 February, Real Madrid defeated city rival Rayo Vallecano at the Campo de Fútbol de Vallecas by a score of 0–1. The only goal of the game, a back-heel effort by Cristiano Ronaldo, was eventually enough for the visitors to go home with the three points in their pocket.[265]

March

[edit]

On 4 March, Real Madrid extended their streak of wins in La Liga to ten games by beating Espanyol at home 5–0. Cristiano Ronaldo, Sami Khedira and Kaká all scored in the impressive win, as did Gonzalo Higuaín, who scored twice.[266] On 10 March, Real Madrid became the first team in the history of La Liga to win ten consecutive away games after beating Real Betis 2–3 at the Estadio Benito Villamarín. The home team started well after Jorge Molina scored early, but Higuaín equalized just over ten minutes later. In the second half, Madrid took the lead with a Ronaldo goal, but Betis equalized only a few minutes later with a strike from Jefferson Montero. Ronaldo, however, scored his second of the night later on which turned out to be the winning goal and guaranteed the full three points for the whites.[267] Real Madrid qualified for the quarter-finals of the Champions League on 14 March by beating CSKA Moscow at home by a score of 4–1, progressing 5–2 on aggregate.

After back-to-back draws, Real Madrid was on an advantage of just six points ahead of rivals Barcelona. In the controversial game, Mourinho was expelled from the match as was fitness trainer Rui Faria for the third time in his season. The referee gave Sergio Ramos a second yellow card for a tough challenge on Nilmar and gave direct red to Özil for sarcastically applauding his decision.[270] Pepe was also booked after the game for insulting the referee, which led to a two-game suspension for him. On 24 March, Real Madrid beat Real Sociedad 5–1, with two goals each from Ronaldo and Benzema and a single goal for Higuaín.[271] Ronaldo averaged 1.01 goals per game by having 100 goals scored in La Liga that day. On the following week, on 27 March, Real Madrid continued their good form in the Champions League quarter-finals first leg by defeating opponent APOEL in Cyprus 0–3.[272] Benzema scored a header from a pass from Kaká, who then scored the second one; Benzema closed the game by scoring the third goal from an Özil assist.[272] On the last day of the month, Real Madrid beat Osasuna away, 1–5. Benzema scored a stupendous volley goal and Ronaldo equally great 36-yard long range shot at goal.[273] It was overall Ronaldo's night, since he also scored another goal, a free kick that was deflected, and assisted two other goals. Higuaín was the third player who got his name on the scoresheet, scoring twice. His last goal was the 100th goal for Madrid in La Liga this season.[273]

Atlético's only goal was netted by Radamel Falcao.[275] On 14 April, Real Madrid beat Sporting de Gijón home 3–1 with goals from Higuaín, Ronaldo and Benzema. Sporting's only goal was a penalty given to them after a handball from Sergio Ramos in the box, which was scored by Miguel de las Cuevas.[276] On 17 April, Real Madrid lost to Bayern Munich away at the Allianz Arena 2–1 in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals. Franck Ribéry and Mario Gómez scored for Bayern (the latter in the closing moments of the game), while Mesut Özil netted Madrid's lone goal.[277] On 21 April, Real Madrid defeated Barcelona in El Clásico at Camp Nou 1–2, extending their lead in La Liga to seven points with only four matches left, which all but decided the league title. Sami Khedira opened the scoring from a corner kick in the 17th minute which broke the world record for the most goals scored in a single domestic league season, with 107. Alexis Sánchez equalized in the second half in the 70th minute, but only a few minutes later, Özil assisted and Ronaldo scored the winning goal of the game by shooting the ball over Víctor Valdés into the net. Madrid completely outplayed Barça's "unbeatable" dream team, neutralizing their tiki-taka style, and put out a statement victory which was widely viewed as a sign of changes in the existing football hierarchy, with Los Blancos overtaking Barcelona as a pre-eminent power both in Spain and Europe.[278][279] On 25 April, in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals against Bayern Munich, Cristiano Ronaldo initially put Madrid up 2–0, but former Madrid player Arjen Robben netted an away goal back for Bayern with a penalty. The match ended 2–1 after extra time and as both sides were tied 3–3, it went to a shootout. During penalties, Iker Casillas made two saves but Ronaldo, Kaká and Ramos failed to convert their spot kicks and Madrid lost 3–1, bowing out of the Champions League in a heartbreaking fashion.[277] The Champions League setback did not break Madrid's spirit, however, as the team went on to crush Sevilla 3–0 just four days after the UCL semi-finals heartbreak. Ronaldo opened the scoring and Benzema then added a brace.[280]

Madrid players celebrate their record-breaking league title after a final day victory over Mallorca

On 2 May 2012, Los Blancos defeated Athletic Bilbao 3–0 in an away game to be crowned champions of Spain after a four-year wait. Higuaín, Özil, and Ronaldo scored as Madrid won La Liga with two games to spare.[281] That wasn't it however, as the team clearly targeted to achieve a record 100 points in a season. Madrid went on to beat Granada away three days later in a dramatic game that saw the home team score early, with Ronaldo equalizing in the 81st minute through a penalty, and Real clinching the victory in injury time, courtesy of an own goal. Two Granada players were sent off after the final whistle after a brawl involving the teams.[282] The final game of the season was against Mallorca at the Bernabéu. Prior to that game, Madridistas had 97 points, meaning that they had to win to become the Centurions. Real did just that by triumphing 4–1 with goals coming from Ronaldo, Benzema, and Özil (2). The team reached the 100-point mark and set numerous records in the process.[283] Overall, La Liga title was a sufficient consolation for a heartbreak in the Champions League semi-finals against Bayern and earlier defeats to Barça in the Supercopa and Copa del Rey.
