Real Madrid are in the record books for the wrong reasons this week.

On Saturday, their time without scoring extended to 481 minutes, or eight hours and one minute, before the drought was finally ended by Marcelo.

We look at what you could do in the time between their last two goals, and in some cases what you could almost do.
