Real Madrid buried the debate over the lack of a goal by the white attackers against Huesca. At least it silenced him for a few days. Hazard saw the goal again 392 days later, Benzema scored his first double of the season and Valverde completed the list of scorers with his third goal of the season. Four goals in total, a collection of so many that Madrid had not achieved for almost nine months. He had achieved it for the last time on February 9, during his visit to Osasuna. 25 games later, Madrid thrashed again.
Zidane's team has become in recent months a more solid than sharp team. The key to success in the post-lockdown stretch of Liga 34 was the security of the white rear. Madrid scored in all the games after the break (so far this current season they have already failed against Real Sociedad and Cádiz), but their goalscoring ceiling in the same match remained in the three goals they scored in the first two commitments , against Eibar and Valencia at Di Stéfano. In the seven months before the coronavirus raged, Madrid scored four or more goals in 6 of 39 games: 4 against Granada, 5 against Leganés, 6 against Galatasaray, 4 against Eibar, 4 against Zaragoza and the 4 mentioned against Osasuna.
Madrid closed last season with less than 100 goals in favor in all competitions for the first time in 12 years, although it improved the average of the previous one (1.94 goals per game, compared to 1.89 in the first exercise are Cristiano ). Before hosting Huesca, the 13 goals in 8 games yielded an average of 1.63 goals per game for Real Madrid. With the defeat of the Huesca, the index has rebounded to 1.89, like two years ago.
