The more I think about it....the more I realise that letting Mario Marin go was a mistake. Now we got Modric playing 90 minutes at 39. No good.
We didn't pay millions to VP of ref committee so no. This ref was controversial last season for ignoring racist chants against Vini at Osasuna.
Very important win that can bring new energy to the team. Yet, RS could won this. We scored two goals by penalties and not in open play game.

3 points and GTFO just like I was hoping for. Carlo needs his midfielders back asap. That being said our positioning and passing from the back should be much better. Vini....get your mind back to the pitch please. Kylian is getting fitter. More Arda please. Hala Madrid
3 points and move on.Did we deserved to win....no but we will take it i guess. The football is horrific,there is no midfield,no tactics,no style,Vinicius,Mbappe and Rodrygo play like they hate each other....i mean it is the same as every game this season we look awful Carlo.....i dont think he is doing a good job right now,he cant make these players work together ,he is doing the same thing and expect different results .....this cant continue like this we look awful God damn it
I'm very happy for the 3 pts. Idgaf about the softness of the pens or the controversy. Let the haters deal with that. I'll sleep well tonight.
Horrible team. Just horrible. Nothing works here. Admittedly missing players but there isn’t any improvement. Easily pressed, bad press ourselves, no chemistry and link-up play between the attackers, no midfield etc etc. Lucked out with the pens today, no way were we scoring otherwise.
We are no getting the ball to the attackers fast enough. This is where I think Arda has to take the initiative and announce himself on the big stage. I have given up hoping Valverde develops some verticality to his passing. Modric at 39 can not and should not be our most creative midfielder.
Jude might be the glue between Vini and Mbappe. Need him asap. This Rodrygo can't be talking. Not enough football. Looking like a great option off the bench still. Jude+Arda behind Vini and Mbappe is the way.
I think we need Jude's aerial threat more than anything else. It's so easy for teams to just pack the lower half and dare us to create. We are not a Pep coached team to be able to do that and rely more on our wingers but without aerial threat we become far too predictable
Poor Luka legit aging on the field Tried a simple long ball to Vini in the first half and overhit it. Mfer so old his depth perception is fading.
Worst player on the pitch didnt do too bad eh Spoiler (Move your mouse to the spoiler area to reveal the content) Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler People with an agenda should put a Spoiler alert before everyone of their posts. Anyhow, back to the more important topic of being unable to create anything against compact teams and how to solve that.
Wonder what those who always moan that teams can't finish for shit against Barca think of this game.....
Thibaut Courtois has now kept 9 clean sheets in 11 games since returning from his injuries.Best in the world. 🌟 pic.twitter.com/ydLhRZJc7s— Madrid Zone (@theMadridZone) September 14, 2024
This season going to be long.. just saying Ramos is available while nobody knows when Alaba return and Militao do tend to injured each season
There’s something super sweet about these types of wins where it could have easily gone the other way!
