Spanish and European glory could be just around the corner for Real Madrid's football and basketball teams, an unparalleled feat as both could achieve the double in the same season.
After securing a trip to the Champions League final, both titles could go their way after one final push, and it isn't since 1958 in the days of Alfredo Di Stefano, Paco Gento and Miguel Munoz that they have a shot at this particular double.
Two wins and a draw in their last three LaLiga matches would be enough for a much awaited trophy, even if Barcelona win their two remaining matches.Winning LaLiga would be a confidence boost ahead of the Juventus final, as Los Blancos look to become the first team to win back-to-back titles in what would be their 12th title, or Duodecima.If we trade the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu for the Barclaycard Centre, it is practically the same scenario.Although the Real Madrid basketball team are yet to reach the EuroLeague final, they made history by winning the extended groups before the knockout stage, placing them amongst Europe's best.A match in Turkey against Fenerbahce awaits, and after already lifting the Copa del Rey in February, Los Blancos are also favorites for the league title as well.Whehther it is football or basketball few are able to contest Real Madrid's hegemony.
