About this episode

This episode dissects Real Madrid’s iconic anthem, "Hala Madrid… y Nada Más," the seismic battle cry that has defined the club's modern era of conquest. We uncover the masterstroke behind its creation, exploring how hitmaker RedOne and wordsmith Manuel Jabois turned a sacred phrase from Alfredo Di Stéfano into a global warrior’s mantra. We look at the chilling pre-match ritual at the Santiago Bernabéu, where 80,000 voices merge to become the soundtrack to history. Crucially, we trace the song's inseparable link to the club's dominance, from the emotional final of La Décima to their astonishing five Champions League titles, cementing the anthem as a timeless symbol of absolute Madridismo.
