The Real society stopped the winning streak of Real Madrid in the last month with his tie this Monday at the Alfredo Di Stefano. Those of Zinedine Zidane, who came from adding five consecutive wins (four in LaLiga against Huesca, Getafe, Valencia and Valladolid, and one in the Champions League against Atalanta), were surviving at the cost of not conceding goals and living more than the success of their defenders or midfielders that of his forwards.
Of the last eight meringues targets in all competitions, four had been shared by two defenders (Varane and Mendy), a pair had been signed by two midfielders (Casemiro and Kroos) and the remaining two were the work of Karim Benzema, whose injury has left the white attack in the ‘bones’.
This Monday, Zidane gave ownership to Mariano Diaz. The Spanish-Dominican had a great chance with a shot to the crossbar in the first half, but he again made it clear that it is not by far the '9' required by a team with the potential of Real Madrid. Another wasted opportunity of a Mariano who the French coach removed at game time to give entry to the squad Hugo Duro.
Zizou finished ‘renovating’ his avant-garde line with the Brazilians Vinicius Junior Y Rodrygo, who reappeared after a long time in the dry dock, to try to overcome the goal of For your at the start of the second part.
Vinicius' goal in his 100th game with Madrid
‘Vini’ was able to celebrate with a goal that avoided ‘in extremis’ the merengue defeat in his 100th match with the Real Madrid jersey. The former Flamengo, who did not score since last October 21 against the Shakhtar In the Champions League, he has achieved a dozen goals with this Monday since he wears merengue: seven in LaLiga, two in the Champions League and three in the Copa del Rey. A balance that is not exactly to shoot rockets.
Black panorama hangs over a Real Madrid what remains five points behind the leader, Atlético, which he will visit this Sunday (4.15pm) at the Metropolitan Wanda with one more game. If those of Simeone win the derby and their postponed match against him Athletic (Wednesday, March 10) would leave the meringues at 11 points, with 12 days remaining, and would practically certify the final goodbye to The league of a white set that will return to hold on to the Champions if those of Zidane they don't screw it up in the lap against him Atalanta after the 0-1 in Bergamo that left the Italians 'alive'.
