Raúl González Blanco's coaching career at La Fábrica is off to a flying start. The former Madrid striker took over Los Blancos' youth team Cadete B on 25 August in a friendly against the Japanese side Gamba Osaka which ended 1-1, and on Sunday he picked up his first trophy with a victory over arch rivals Barcelona, winning El Clásico 2-0 via second-half goals from Abraham and Yeray Lancha.

Real Madrid's current plan shares similarities with Zidane's trajectory a few years previously: gaining experience with the youth teams before hopefully taking over the first team at a suitable time.
