Tony Adams’ Granada suffered a 4-0 loss at home to Real Madrid last Saturday.
Madrid seemed to take pity on the already relegated La Liga during the game, after racing into a four-nil lead after 35 minutes, they eased up in the second half.
Adams boldly predicted victory for Granada before the game. The 50-year-old said his side would win if Madrid didn’t pick Cristiano Ronaldo for the game.
“I can see it in the stars, 1-0, but only if Ronaldo plays,” the former Portsmouth manager said.
Ronaldo didn’t play, and Granada lost. So, at least Tony got that right.
Real Madrid 4 Granada 0.

Adams is only in charge at the Spanish side until the end of the season, and while it hasn’t exactly gone to plan, his stint has at least been memorable.
The former Arsenal captain’s unorthodox training sessions and his choice of attire have caught people’s attention, including the players on Madrid’s bench.

Luka Modric, Isco, Karim Benzema and Toni Kroos were among the Madrid substitutes who found Adams’ waistcoat for Saturday’s game very funny.
The players were caught on camera laughing at Adams as the Granada manager stood on the sideline shouting instructions to his beleaguered team.
According to Spanish media outlet Marca, Isco shouted: “Waiter! A Coca Cola!”

They weren’t the only ones mocking poor Tony.
