It is the statistical summary of a merengue shipwreck signed by a starting eleven with an average age of 30 years, the highest of Real Madrid at least between LaLiga 2019-20 and the current one. A worrying fact to add to the already terrible numbers signed by Zidane's, who used up all five changes for the first time this year, four at halftime, in search of a reaction that did not come.
