In August, Madrid won the 2014 UEFA Super Cup against Sevilla, the club’s 79th official trophy. In reaching 101 goals in 92 games, Ronaldo surpassed Real Madrid legend Ferenc Puskás, who scored 100 goals in 105 matches. Madrid entered the Copa del Rey as the defending champions, but lost 3–4 on aggregate in the quarter-finals to Barcelona. They also competed in the UEFA Champions League for the 15th successive season, losing in the semi-finals to Bayern Munich in a penalty shoot-out after a 3–3 aggregate tie. A brief return to form came to an abrupt halt after Madrid lost the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals 6–1 to Real Zaragoza, a defeat that was nearly reversed with a 4–0 home victory. Off the pitch, the Zidanes y Pavones policy resulted in increased financial success based on the exploitation of the club’s high marketing potential around the world, particularly in Asia.
In the 2014–15 UEFA Champions League semi-finals, former Real Madrid player Álvaro Morata scored one goal in each leg to take Juventus to the final, winning 3–2 on aggregate, while Cristiano Ronaldo scored both goals for Madrid. They met again in the 2002–03 UEFA Champions League semi-finals, when both clubs were in their respective ‘golden eras’; Juventus won 4–3 on aggregate. Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are two of the most successful clubs in the UEFA Champions League/European Cup competition, with Real winning 15 times and Bayern winning six times. Until 10 December 2011, this fixture was the most played in the history of Spanish football, when it was surpassed by El Clásico. This is known as El Viejo Clásico (the old classic), so named as the two clubs were dominant in the first half of the 20th century, meeting in nine Copa del Rey finals including the first in 1903.
Following these setbacks, Real Madrid announced that Carlo Ancelotti would depart as manager at the end of the season. The season also saw a humbling Champions League quarter-final exit, as Real Madrid were eliminated by Arsenal 5–1 on aggregate. The first match was a 2–2 draw, while the second match in the Bernabéu was marked by a double by Joselu in the last few minutes of the game, with Bayern Munich suffering a historic comeback after leading 1–0.
In late 2011, Real Madrid released a digital music album, entitled Legends, and a remix of the club’s anthem, “Himno del Real Madrid”, was released as the first single from the album. Along with the fictional portion of the film, it also contains real footage of the squad, during training at Ciudad Real Madrid, matches, and interviews. In the film, both Florentino Pérez and Alfredo Di Stéfano presented the fictional player Muñez to the club after his signing.citation needed
