Madrid’s adventure in Miami ended, although if he eliminates Borussia on Saturday, he would return to Palm Beach to have a final training there before the semifinal. But the white team already enters the outcome of the tournament, and that means playing beans in New York. To start, this Saturday he disputes the first of the three games he hopes to play in the MetLife Stadium In New Jersey, some rooms against Borussia: «They are a Top team in Europe. With the Bayer we play against them and we expect the same as then. Intense and high level. Kovac is doing it well, ”said Alonso.
The Madrid coach, who sent condolences in his name and in the players of the woman and children of Diogo Jota and her brother’s family, did not confirm the presence of Mbappé In the eleven. Doubt that keeps until tomorrow. Before Juventus, this newspaper already reported that it would not start at the beginning, but against Borussia it is not ruled out, despite not yet being 100%: «We will decide tomorrow. Players have to know eleven before you. This will be the whole season. I will disappoint you with these answers, ”said Alonso, while praising Gonzalo’s role:” He is doing very well and of course he can be complementary to Mbappé. “
Xabi was asked several times about its impact every time there is a ‘cooling break‘. He preferred to take me out of merit and questioned that the ‘dead times’ in football must be fixed: “We must give the most effective instructions, but in normal conditions of weather I am not sure that it is the best.”
As is the best that, although he comments failures, he insists Collar in that double position ‘6’. Xabi accepts the toll of balls and duels lost due to his lack of habit and his physical ‘fragility’: “Arda has to anticipate before reacting. If the position is better, you get to the duel before. It will make failures, but also succeed. It is time to invest so that there is a development of it. He is doing well, and we continue to push him to mature and make mistakes ».
Mistakes, for now, do not commit Rodrygowhich is barely counting in the tournament. Xabi revealed that he spoke yesterday with him and sees him animated and eager. “I see him with a positive mentality,” says Alonso, who praises the role of Al-Hilal and Brazilian teams in this World Cup: “What is happening in the tournament is very good because in Europe we are ‘mushrooms'”.
