‘El Chiringuito’ opens with three silent minutes of sad Guti

This is pure TV gold

Real Madrid was eliminated from the Champions League on Wednesday in devastating fashion, and club legend Guti was extremely sad.

He was so sad, in fact, that the infamous Spanish TV show “El Chiringuito” decided to lead its show with three silent minutes of Guti being sad.

After Man City hammered Madrid, many Blancos fans likely didn’t have the words to describe how their all-powerful side could have been made to look so ordinary.

Guti didn’t know what to say either. But he didn’t need to say anything. He just needed to stare off into space and look sad. Thankfully, “El Chiringuito” was there with a bold and masterful editorial decision to kick off its Wednesday night show.

The camera angles. The fades in and out. The suspenseful yet downtrodden soundtrack. The backdrop of sad Madrid players. And Guti — the saddest and quietest man on earth. This is TV gold.
