The night of this Saturday will be something that the Real Madrid and Zinedine Zidane will want to forget quickly. The errors of the past that the French had attained to correct have gone back to punish to a picture merengue that lives a very delicate situation in the domestic competition, where have not won the last three days. First in Mestalla, in front of Valencia (4-1), afterwards in front of the Villarreal in The Ceramics (1-1) and last night in the visit of the Alavés to the Gave Stefano (1-2). The Madrilenian continue without being regular and, if they follow losing points, could move away even more of the leadership.
In front of the vitorianos, to the merengues earned him a penal against before the five minutes of party. A hand of Nacho Fernández inside the area, the one who substituted to Sergio Bouquets, to the exit of a corner, conditioned the rest of the party. Lucas Pérez defined in front of Thibaut Courtois without problems and the Alavés won more confidence in the field. The defeat of the madridistas could have been worse, but the fault of tarpaulin of face to the arch of the ones of Pablo Machín left to the Real Madrid with life, although they could not equalise the marker after the goal of Casemiro to the 86 minutes of the party.
However, the history could have been distinct. In the time added of the first part, Víctor Laguardia, defender of the Alavés, took of the peel inside the area to the left side of the Madrid, Marcelo, committing a fault that to simple sight was very obvious but that it was desestimada by the referee, Lamb Vega, and the VAR did not review it to signal the maximum penalty that had supposed the tie of the madridistas.
Moment complicated for the Madrid
The ones of Zinedine Zidane, definitely, live a very complicated situation in the actuality. They have not achieved to reflect the tarpaulins that had during the past season, like the defensive solidity, that carried them to raise his trigésimocuarta Spanish League. In the middle of a very tightened calendar, that also has affected to teams like the FC Barcelona and Athletic of Madrid, the image that has left the picture merengue, especially in the last days of the national competition, has been very worrisome.
The permanence of 'Zizou' in the bench, after the irregular beginning of campaign, is engaged. The French reached the ten defeats to the control of the Real Madrid from his return in 2019 and each action is being observed with a lupa. For now, they depend on yes same to classify to the eighth of final of the Champions League, but in LaLiga need to show a version more regulate to approach to the leadership.
