In the last two games at the Bernabéu, Real Madrid have conceded six goals. Four made him the Royal Society to eliminate him from the Cup and two this Sunday the Celtic to steal two points from the advantage of three he had with Barcelona. Less than two weeks of playing against Manchester City, in the Champions League, and against Barcelona in LaLiga, whites flock on the line that was showing off this season. They are not the team of Pep Guardiola and that of Leo Messi the most suitable to offer defensive fissures.

The first goal Vigués caught Madrid still with boots to buckle, in a gas-free exit that always irritate Zinedine Zidane. And the second, a few minutes from the end, broke the rear through the middle, without Bouquets, Casemiro Y Varane succeed to intercept the magnificent pass of Denis Suarez. It was a chain failure: the captain floated out of place to the former Barca, the Brazilian became impatient and left to cover without achieving it and the French central was late to uncheck Santi Mina.

“These draws can cost a League. When the teams play at the Bernabéu they lock themselves up, in their fields they go further forward,” he lamented. Thibaut Courtois, Salvador before the break to avoid the 0-2. He did not receive the Belgian goal two goals since the match against PSG, in the Champions League, and in the League, from Granada (October 5).

“I am not worried”

Zidane arrived in the press room with a bad face and a wound on his lip, because of a clash in the band with a Celtic player. The Frenchman is confident in his team, despite the slowdown. “We expect much more complicated games, we have to be more attentive. I'm not worried. But if in the first goal it can be said that it is a mistake, in the second, we must say that Suarez gave a spectacular pass. We must have a lot concentration, all the time. We also have good opponents in front, “he summarized.

The Madrid coach believes that “physically” his team can improve, on the way to the most important appointments on the calendar. On the list of good things of the night, he highlighted the return of Eden Hazard. “I am very happy with the 70 minutes he has given us.”
