Reactions, controversy, analysis and comments of Granada – Real Madrid

“IF MADRID WINS TODAY, IT WILL BE A MIRACLE”

If Madrid win today, it will be a miracle. And I say it from the respect. But the barrage of casualties and the eleven with which he comes out … We must not forget it. Five kids come out. Comes out Marvin from the right back it must be that Odriozola still had discomfort. Comes out Miguel Gutierrez of left back, which for me is of maximum guarantees but it is his first title. Comes out Valverde. It must be that Kroos still carries the annoyances of the last games. And it comes out Rodrygo and comes out Militao, 20 year old kids.

It is a talented team, but very young. Of course, supported by a spine that is admirable and to which a monument will have to be made at door 0 of the New Bernabéu. In the end there are five footballers who hold the fort as best they can.

If Madrid take this game forward, it is a sign that it has a quarry, and secondly, that young people are knocking at the door. But Granada is a great team and although the door to Europe has been closed … uf! I see it … very complicated game. I insist, if Madrid win the team deserves a global tribute.
