72 hours after the Royal resumes the League in Anoeta, all the fundamental pieces of its squad are in perfect condition for the exciting 11-game final sprint in which, in little more than a month, the League will be decided 19/20. It is the best guarantee for the txuri urdin team to resume the competition at the exact point where it left off, which would be synonymous with qualifying for the Champions League, a position that it will defend when the championship resumes as a result of the merits accumulated in the first 27 tournament days.
Yes Imanol If he so arranged, in the first of the 11 final matches against Osasuna he will be able to line up his 'eleven' gala. The one that is recited from memory based on the distribution of minutes that the Orio coach has made. Remiro; Zaldua, Llorente, You
Normand, Monreal; Zubeldia, Merino, Odegaard; For your, Willian
José and Oyarzabal They make up a lineup based on the eleven footballers who have played the most. It seems unlikely that no less than seven or eight of them will resume again in 'eleven' the League. Aritz
Elustondo, Januzaj or Isak they could choose to unseat Llorente or You
Normand, For your or Willian
José, but what is most on the rise is that the coach leans on his 'eleven' header to try to achieve the first of the six or seven wins that will be necessary to finish in the top four.
Choose the players you choose, the greatest peace of mind for the coach lies in the fact that, on the one hand, he has at his disposal all the tools that have led Real to rub shoulders, from you to you, with the best teams in the tournament and, on the other, it has the guarantee that when it has had to resort to any footballer of the second unit, it has not been far from the performance of the footballers with the greatest brilliance.
Real's chances of success in the final stretch of the championship will happen, in any case, because the txuri urdin cracks keep their mechanisms as greased as in 70% of the championship played so far. Willian
José, with 9 goals, is the team's top scorer and For your, with 8 goal passes, the best assistant, but in those categories soccer players like Oyarzabal, For your, Isak or OdegaardThey are the ones who are going to have to carry out with their decisive maneuvers all the good work of the team. La Real has four players among the tournament's top 25 scorers and three among the top 15 attendees. Maintaining that level of offensive productivity will be decisive to continue in the fight for fourth position.
Odegaard, rojillo executioner
The match against Osasuna, in addition to being reunited with the League, will serve as a thermometer for the vital signs of Real. For the memory, as an excellent sample button of what the team has been this season, there is the spectacular game of the first round in which Odegaard signed, by default, a work of art. The Norwegian, in the Cup, repeated on set pieces at Anoeta. A third goal on Sunday would be the best way to say that Real has returned.
