Jacobo Ramon was always the standout CB in Castilla: captain, highly rated, seen as the future. Raul Asencio was in his shadow. But when their moments came, everything flipped.
Jacobo got his chance in a low pressure Copa del Rey game and looked way out of depth.
Asencio? He wasn't even supposed to play. He was thrown in mid-game at the Bernabéu against Osasuna unprepared (after Militão's first half ACL) yet he delivered a masterclass and hasn't put a foot wrong since. Now he's starter for Real Madrid.
To succeed at the biggest club in the world, with all the pressure that comes with it, talent/quality alone isn't enough. Character is just as important.
"Down for Rodrygo... Éder Militao. Carvajal. It's Carvajal's cross... RODRYGOOO, oooh it's extraordinary!!! They prayed for miracles and miracles arrived! REAL MADRID, THE TEAM OF DREAMS. Where has that come from? How did that happen?!"
