Tuesday, September 23, 2025, 23:27

Xabi Alonso is an interventionist technician, he knows well what he wants and, in addition, everything goes well in this beginning of the course in which his Madrid achieved results before the game, but increasingly offers better sensations, as happened before the Levante in the Ciutat of Valencia. Unlike what happened in the last times of Ancelotti, it is a versatile, dynamic, living, unpredictable and an irreproachable attitude in pressure after loss. If that adds the individual quality of their figures and some fortune at specific times, normal the full of triumphs in six days. Vini talked about the grass and brought up the Levante with a goal, Mastantuono signed his first goal with Madrid and Mbappé appeared with another double when the granotas dreamed after shortening distances after the break.

Despite the risk of every intersemanal party with a derby just around the corner, the Tolosarra moved the tree, made four changes with respect to the lawsuit against Espanyol, gave rest to indisputable as Militao and Tchouaméni, and tried new things. Asencio served as a right side, although in attack Madrid acted with a three -back line, and races taught a master’s degree. Benfica’s ex is a quiet guy who makes everything simple and well, as if he leads a lifetime in the white team. Great signing, as well as the reappeared Houjsen and above that of Mastantuono.

It is true that at the beginning the leader showed mismatches that he could well take advantage of a levante who came out brave, as against Barça and Betis, rivals in front of those who came to wear 2-0. The team of Julián Calero, a Madrid Parla on the benches of endless teams, was able to repeat the deed against Madrid, but did not succeed on two very clear occasions. It happened that Iván Romero failed a shot almost at a empty door, after passing from the victor’s death, and from the diverted, at the exit of a corner, completely alone and almost in the small area. There began to dig the granotas. If the modest forgives him, he is dead. A football law.

GOLAZO DE VINI AND MASTANTUONO PREMIERE

GOLAZO DE VINI AND MASTANTUONO PREMIERE

Gradually, Madrid undergoing its rival and like it. He found Mastantuono on the sides, increasingly holder, and Vinicius, and was very easy in the local area. The whites began to generate occasions, almost one after another, and proof of this is that they finished the first half with 0-2 and 15 shots at the door. Ryan, remarkable, saved his team in two shots from Vini and Valverde, a right -hander who also has a cannon in his left -hander, and saw how the touch of Mastantuono after a rejection crashed into the crossbar.

The first goal was only a matter of time and came shortly before half an hour after a great pressure above Güler, a robbery and a genius of Vini, which surprised everyone with a hit of exterior to the reach only of the geniuses. They tried to react the Valencians, but immediately Madrid hit him with a lethal counterattack, of sprinters. He cut races, he gave it to Vini, he saw the uncheck on the right of Mastantuono and the Argentine scored his first goal with the right and by the squad, just when everyone waited for his blow with his right hand. That goal was for weeks ago by River.

Madrid made the mistake of seeing everything resolved and getting too relaxed after the break. He was clueless and in a strange play and Cameroonés Etta Eyong shortened distances after a rejection. New scenario, unthinkable after what had been seen. Peo emerged Mbappé, almost missing until then, to end the granota resistance in a Pispás. First, he forced a penalty as clear as Elgezabal and transformed it to Panenka. What confidence does. A couple of minutes later, he took advantage of a great pass from Güler and surpassed Ryan with enough. The Frenchman already adds nine goals. With another triumph in the Macuto, time to distribute minutes thinking about what is coming. And Vini, this time, ended the game. Xabi management.
