Rodrygo’s scepter classifies a gray Real Madrid for the last 16 of the Cup

Real Madrid did not get off the bus that took them to Extremadura.. El Cacereño was more intense in all aspects, writing the usual script in this type of match, but still surprising the humble. He faced a white team, where Odriozola spent the first minutes of the season by changing his foot. And despite the sharp turns Six World Cup players were created: Militao, Camavinga, Tchouaméni, Hazard, Asensio and Rodrygo.

The high pressure of the second RFEF team showed the solidarity that Ancelotti’s men lacked. They hoped that the fighter would wear out from successive blows, ignoring that each round resisted was a victory. real Madrid a deranged puzzle involving players not used to seeing each other’s faces they mixed things up with hasty touches on the field. Only Ceballos understood the special conditions of the match. Like the Militao, he served as a helmsman on a ship where the crew chewed gum. A reply from the Brazilian was answered with an input from local Luis Telles where he marked the area.

Cacereño gradually gave up the image of a friendly team to be exchanged for at the end of the game. He monopolized the ball and a few chances in the first half. It was interrupted by fouls that spawn bald spots on Prince Felipe’s green. Lunin reduced the suffocation the Extremaduran team was looking for with standing stones where the forces were equalized. His hands were not frozen and he had more to do than his counterpart, Iván Moreno. Real Madrid’s offensive contribution remained in shots from outside the field and some against isolated. Most of the shots were bad, such as the shot that resulted in an disallowed goal for Lucas Vázquez due to a very clear offside from Marco Asensio.

Ancelotti had to make a move. Despite having hungry domestic players on the bench, he returned to bet on first team players.. A short time later, Rüdiger and Valverde entered, joined by Vallejo, a mandatory replacement for an Odriozola that lasted 50 minutes. A trade-off between two inactive players that made the defender take an unnatural position for him.

“Yes, you can” began to spread into a field that turned its soul into its own and put aside a Real Madrid fascination that lived between the two teams. The only way to prevent the situation was an individuality. Rodrygo brought out the missing brilliance with his canchera game. He faced Clausí and Aguado, cleared the mud with a run and put the ball in the top corner with great resolution.. The Brazilian showed a path that Hazard had not followed in years and was eventually replaced by supporting actor Álvaro Rodríguez. Asa saved Ancelotti’s plan B, which is a list of players that need to be activated before the match marathon that awaits them.
