'We are the guilty ones' - Marcelo calls on Real Madrid players to take blame for miserable season

Long-serving defender Marcelo concedes he and his team-mates must shoulder the blame for Real Madrid's "tough" campaign.

Madrid concluded their 2018-19 season with a 2-0 loss at home to Real Betis on Sunday , leaving them with a final points tally of 68 in La Liga - their lowest return since 2001-02.

The Spanish giants also exited the Champions League at the last 16 stage with defeat to Ajax and were beaten by bitter rivals Barcelona in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey.
