Madrid thrashes Granada and maintains its pursuit of Atlético

The Real Madrid did his homework by forcefully defeating Granada and continues with his persecution of the Athletic in his career to revalidate the league title. The most effective version of the Zidane it was enough to reap the three points in a game that he knew how to solve in time before it got too complicated.

The bet of Zidane to revolutionize the eleven he went out to ask for the mouth for Madrid, revitalized thanks to the impetus of Valverde, Rodrygo Y Miguel Gutierrez. The youth squad significantly improved the performance of Marcelo, the Uruguayan gave air to the spinal cord and the Brazilian put the spice and clairvoyance in attack.

The distribution of roles was defined from the start of the game. The Madrid, forced to win so as not to say goodbye to his options to revalidate the title, he came out with the knife between his teeth. The energy of Valverde and the intelligence of Rodrygo to move between the lines, they allowed Madrid to start commanding. Starting from the left but with freedom to move through various areas, the Brazilian winger capitalized on the whites' clearer chances. In the 10th minute he tried his luck from afar and shortly after put a measured cross at the head of Benzema that did not mean 0-1 because Rui Silva He avoided it with a big save.

Faced with this scenario, Granada did not have any complex to protect itself behind and trust its chances of getting something positive out of its great defensive retreat. But the conservative approach was blown up by a genius of Miguel Gutierrez. The youth squad unlocked the Nasrid defense with a “spoon” pass into space to uncheck Modric. The Croatian, with hardly any angle, beat with his left foot to Rui Silva below the legs (17 ').

The team of Diego Martinez she took off her corset when she was behind on the scoreboard and the game turned into a chaotic runner-up. The Nasrids fired blank bullets in attack and also neglected the rear, but the Madrid he did not know how to penalize him on the backlash because Vinicius He almost always screwed up in decision-making. At the edge of the break, the ex of the Flamengo had a very frank counter in which he chose to define instead of looking for Benzema, totally only on your left.

Who did not forgive was Rodrygo, that fixed the mess of his compatriot marking the 0-2 in the discount of the first time. The Brazilian recovered a ball divided on the right, advanced unopposed to the rival area and shot Silva with a dry and tight shot to score his first goal in the league (46 ').

In the second part it was noted that grenade the season is becoming eternal. Without several props and without a spark, the Nasrid people could not change the course of the fight. The MadridFor his part, he tried to lower the heart rate of the duel by thinking about the Athletic without giving up looking for the opposite goal. There emerged the figure of Modric, who disguised himself as Kroos to temper the game and rule the possessions of Madrid from the left profile.

The triple change of Zidane giving entrance to Hazard, Isco Y Asensio for Vinicius, Valverde Y Rodrygo He sent a counterproductive message to his team, denatured thereafter. Madrid gave the initiative, split and allowed Granada to get into the game. Luis Suárez had the 1-2 in his boots but inexplicably missed a shot at empty goal.

The team of Diego Martinez smelled blood and Molina scored the 1-2 after taking advantage of a bad rejection of Courtois. When they found themselves with the water around their necks, the whites snapped up and regained control of the duel to bury the local reaction. In just one minute, Madrid sentenced the clash with two goals. First Odriozola culminated a low center of Hazard (75 ') and seconds later Benzema took advantage of a bad exit from Rui Silva to score an empty goal from 30 meters.

There was no time for more and the MadridAfter overcoming the suffocation, he dedicated himself to saving strength for the two remaining battles: Athletic Y Villarreal.
