Zapping Our Mondial EXCLUDED: Christopher Nkunku’s “Little Brother” interview!
Real Madrid are starting life without Karim Benzema. Injured in the last match of the Merengue against Celtic in the Champions League, the French international is not in the group to face Mallorca. If Eden Hazard took the opportunity to return to the starting lineup, Madrid is upset at the break (1-1). From the start of the game, the visitors stood out with a shot from Muriqi, well repelled by Thibault Courtois (1st). Shortly after, Toni Kroos – captain for a day – worried the Mallorcan defense twice. First with a long shot (14th) before coming up against a free kick (18th).

Rajkovic then distinguished himself with a fine save in front of Rodrygo (27th). At the end of the first period, Vedat Muriqi rose higher than everyone else to surprise the Bernabéu (35th) by opening the scoring. Ferland Mendy, marking, is not faultless on the action. At the very end of the first period, Real Madrid saved the day thanks to Federico Valverde (45+4). The Uruguayan equalized with a sublime shot. The Merengue will have to be more precise to leave with success and regain the lead in La Liga.
to summarize
Real Madrid host Mallorca at the Bernabéu for LaLiga Matchday 5. At the break, Carlo Ancelotti’s men managed to equalize thanks to a superb goal from Federico Valverde in stoppage time.
