Real Madrid have played in 25 Champions League campaigns and this could be a record breaking season, just not in a good way. Sitting 3rd in Group B below Borussia Monchengladbach and tonight’s victors Shakhtar Donetsk.
With just 7 points from 5 games, do you think Real will be able to bring it back and qualify for the knockout stages or will they be destined for Europa League.
This is Real Madrid's 25th group stage campaign in the Champions League. They have qualified in all 24 previous group stage campaigns.
The last time they weren't in the playoffs was 1996/97, when they missed out on European qualification (refused to play in the Intertoto Cup).

Dentinho scored Shakhtar’s first goal tonight as Raphael Varane let the ball pass him and go freely to the feet of the Brazilian. Dentinho was then able to power it past the Belgian Thibaut Courtois in goal.
