Ireland, England, Spain. It doesn’t matter where you are… Fans will always give a rival manager a hard time.
And that’s no different with Rafa Benitez who hasn’t been exactly having the easiest time of it in the Bernabeu dugout.
Benitez’s time as Real Madrid manager, his dream job, reached a nadir as Barcelona ran out 4-0 victors in the latest edition of El Clasico on Saturday evening.

And Atletico Madrid fans found the perfect time to celebrate Rafa’s misfortune this midweek as Atletico beat Galatasaray 2-0 at the Vicente Calderon.
Scores from around the other groups appeared on the Calderon big screen and Atletico supporters got a great kick out of learning that, having been 4-0 up after 70 minutes, Real Madrid conceded three goals in the final 20 minutes.
So thrilled were they that the home crowd broke into a chorus of “Benitez, quedate!” which translates to “Benitez, stay!”
