MADRID: In the week that Real Madrid inked a marketing deal with Disney, it was appropriate that the talk was of the reigning Spanish champions avoiding another Mickey Mouse display against Albacete tomorrow.
Real’s last outing two weeks ago saw them crash 4-1 at Sevilla, with jokes after Real went three down in 15 minutes that Donald Duck and Goofy could have done better than David Beckham, Zinedine Zidane and Ronaldo, and they need an emphatic win to restore morale and keep up their championship challenge.
