Madara is not unbeatable Nerfed is a more accurate term rather than cornered, Madara's not an idiot he knows when he's in trouble and not once since absorbing the tree did he display anything other than confidence. When you have a character that the author literally says he doesn't know how to beat and has to write him out of a story you're not going to convince me Naruto and Sasuke would have won in any way that wasn't Plot no Jutsu.

That only shows how little he cares about a fight, not once did Madara use even a slither of the full extent of his abilities like his EMS and Rinnegan powers. Only because they got BS six path upgrades and oh yeah Madara thought that they were dead before they ganged up on him. Being nerfed is not the same as genuinely being under pressure.
