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.
Multiple teams won trebles, even sextuples. Nobody repeated an UCL (since all the best teams play it), let alone get 3 in a row.
it’s not that hard for a player to focus on a knockout tournament for 3 consecutive years.
You know how hard it is to be focused in EVERY competition and still maintain fitness and health?
If a treble was so easy why hasn’t the best team in europe ever won one? Madrid is somehow the best, but they’ve never won? That’s kind of sad
