The 4 most ‘strange’ decisions of Zidane in the last week

The Real Madrid could not pass the tie this Sunday against Celtic (2-2) and Barcelona already ‘threatens’ his leadership ready before March 1 Classic. The Santiago Bernabeu He ended up bothering some of his players (Marcelo and Gareth Bale they took the palm), but also pointed to the bench.

Since the victory in the derby before him Atlético de Madrid on February 1, the French coach has made certain decisions in the ‘11s’ headlines before the Real Sociedad, the Osasuna and own Celtic that have cost, among other reasons, the elimination in the Copa del Rey against the ‘txuri-urdin’ and two points against the vigueses in LaLiga.

Mendy. The French, life insurance defensively and increasingly daring offensively, is winning the ‘battle’ to Marcelo on the left side. It has not taken long to adapt to the team and its presence is increasingly key. The Madrid he pays dearly when he is not: four goals against the Real and two this Sunday before the Celtic, which was a substitute after having a week off without games and only with training. Do not forget that you have four yellow and should be measured with an eye before the I raised or even if Zidane So he sees it, not playing to stand before him Barcelona. (The numbers dictate sentence: the data of Madrid with and without Marcelo)

Isco. The Malaga arrived at the weekend after being the best player of the Madrid in the always complicated visit to The Sadar. The Osasuna He got ahead and the Spanish international was the only one who punched the table to ask for the ball and lead the Madrid attack in search of the comeback, which began precisely with the 1-1. Nevertheless, Zidane He didn't give any minute to him Celtic.

Vinicius. The young crack was one of the few, perhaps the only one, who got rid of the ‘burning’ for the team’s bad game for 80 minutes against the Real in the Cup. He asked for the ball, went down to receive it, faced, bargained for speed and technique, scored on a millimetric offside and attended Rodrygo. He did almost everything and at an excellent level, but disappeared from the ‘11’ headline before the Osasuna and the Celtic.

Jovic. The Serbian has not begun his journey in the best possible way. There is no doubt that it has not yet adapted to Madrid and his demand, although he has not had great opportunities to do so, playing most of his minutes at the end of games already practically decided as before the Osasuna. Whites won by 1-3 and the ‘9’ Serbian came out to play little more than the discount, but on the first ball he almost touched he put him in the squad to score his second goal with the Madrid. Before him Celtic He didn't pass the bench.
