That was a pinball play but Bellingham came from the top of the box and sifted through the trash with nobody noticing him.
The rate at which this kid is downloading 'Madridismo' is astonishing... It's like I'm watching Sergio Ramos level clutch in Zidane's body mixed with Cristiano's determination.
We needed bit of luck today. I mean so many chances, just that day... but this is Madrid! fight till the end!
The performance ? Team did everything right today. Completely dominated, it was just one of those days where the ball just doesn’t want to go in. 71% possession, 30 shots, 16 corners. It’s a miracle this didn’t end 4 or 5-0. I’m good with the performance today, Jude is such a baller.
Joselu actually had a good game. It has been awhile since we have a target man. he would have scored twice today.
Damn, I don’t even know what to say. Kinda feel for Union, but only kinda. Props to Fede for taking the shot, really need more of his mentality from our mids. Jude as always being smart and following things up in case of the rebound. Salute to him for getting us another win. Big time player, even if he was kept pretty quiet in this match. Pretty disappointed in our play throughout though, really sloppy and lacking aggression.
Again, literally the only player on his toes and anticipating the ball when the Valverde shot comes in. Everyone else like damn statues.
What so many people fail to realize is that being in tap-in positions is often an indication of knowing exactly where you need to be when a ball comes in. Those aren't easy positions to get into, and not easy positions to find open space in. That's an art all to itself. Jude may not score Fede or Asensio-type screamers but who the hell cares, they all count the same.
What a finish to the game. Modric really looks slow. I don't know if it's father time or he's the kind that needs to play consistently to be sharp.
Lol Bellignham was gassed and we all knew it still had to be him. Brahim was there as well but it just had to be him.
