Real Madrid won Huesca on Saturday and did so comfortably, but there are even more new features.
Eden Hazard and Karim Benzema scored a quick double at the end of the first half, then Fede Valverde joined after the break.
Then comes Inter in the Champions League, where Real Madrid play for their lives after adding a point in their first two matches of the competition.
But if the Hazard-Benzema hitch works as it did on Saturday, both will be easier . . . The Belgian and the French are perceived very well on the pitch, and both once and twice get hooked near the opposite surface, things happen.
Things go wrong when Vinicius Junior is also in the field, with the Brazilian coming in as a replacement and causing Benzema’s comments to be overlooked.
Vinicius’ first involvement in the attack saw him get on his bike, get into the area and set up a smart center for BenzemaArray. . . that failed. The two smiled and it became clear that any tension between the two had passed.
Hazard is not yet in full power, but what a footballer he is, against Huesca did what is expected of him: the game.
Real Madrid struggled to make a breakthrough against the newly promoted team, but the Belgian sorcerer won the ball and turned around with a move before firing a long-range shot that flew to the bottom of the net.
Hazard chose not to celebrate the goal, because he knows he still has a lot to do at Madrid, but this strike is helping to justify himself, gain confidence and send a message that no one is burying me.
Regardless of the purpose, the striker showed a smart pairing game with Benzema, made big rear wheels, Array, wants a series of games, but if he scores a goal like that against Inter, he will soon be in the heart of Real Madrid. Amateurs.
“The new one happens,” Benzema wrote on social media after the controversy with Vinicius. And that turns out to be the case, because on the ground we saw Karim exalted.
No. 9 obtained two purposes and gave a hand. Array. There are those who seem to think that Benzema has never achieved a purpose in its life, however, it is moving from wonderful functionality to wonderful functionality.
The one you use just before your first purpose is something only a few other people in the world can do, and you also discover the background of the network. He’s already scored four this season.
Has Zidane replaced his philosophy after the defeats to Cadiz and Shakhtar Donetsk?Against Huesca he replaced the positions he thought was essential and gave breaks to the rest of the players once the result of the adjustment was secured.
Fede Valverde appears to be frozen in his starting line-up, while Zidane also sought to give the start to Marco Asensio, having played the Spaniard for the last three games. There is a feeling that the French technician needs to take out a normal eleven and give the players inside it some confidence.
We saw the return of Valverde’s most productive edition in the victory over Huesca, as the Uruguayan proved to be a whirlwind full of life in a box-to-box role, offering a hand and even marking the adjustment sheet himself.
If the Whites had a few more with Valverde’s power and working speed, they’d be in much calmer waters.
Luka Jovic does not seem to be able to earn Zidane’s trust, he has had three home runs so far this season, however, after poor performance in all those matches, the Serbian side found himself off the coach’s radar.
He did not play a single minute against Barcelona, Borussia Munchengladbach and Huesca, and would be a brave user to bet money on this replenishment against Inter. Zidane has already shown that he even prefers Sergio Ramos as number nine to Jovic.
Eder Militao played badly against Shakhtar Donetsk and was heavily criticized, but had the chance to play on Saturday afternoon.
He proved that life is another next to the experienced figure of Ramos, and he of being a totally different footballer from the crisis we saw him struggling to return to position in front of Ukrainian champions. The Huesca, of course, didn’t ask too many questions.
