Real Madrid is defined as intangible as ambition and struggle, which are cousins ​​sisters of the intensity with which he turned the classic. Quality, like courage to the soldier, is assumed. The money, too. That is why the Madrid that started at Villamarín was not Madrid, disconnected, hypotensive, without continuity with the previous chapter in which the leadership had been taken from Barcelona , again in dispute over the table. That way he promises to be what remains of the League, because neither of the big two is for punches on the table, but for this it is necessary not to lose any hand, to stay in the game. The worst Madrid of the course, also with the worst version of pillars like Sergio Ramos, Kroos or Benzema, did not deserve it and observes, again, Barça ahead in the League of the convalescent. [2-1: Narration and statistics]

The entire first act was a parsimonious exercise that led to Betis where he did not expect. With more precautions than usual he started, grown to the extent that he felt little threatened. Barely a shot of Vinicius offered Madrid in the first half blunt. Zidane kept the Brazilian, but to optimize it his team has to move the ball quickly and look for his partner in space. If it moves like a car, it does not generate free space for a soccer player who likes to feel like an antelope in the Serengeti. The only time he found those meters was at the end of the first half, and from his career and center, precisely, the situation of the penalty came from Sidnei on Marcelo, which allowed Benzema to close the first half with a fictional but real marker. Fictitious because he did not respond to what had happened. Real because it meant the tie, an opportunity to start over. Group therapy at breaks is good for Zidane. This time, however, there was no immediate effect. Unlike.

Benzema's mistake

Betis spreads the work when he arrives where he has the best pieces. The smart thing is to play where you are better. The difficult thing is to achieve it, due to the work of the rival. Madrid allowed it in the first half in which he barely made that high pressure that has given him so many fruits, so Rubi's team felt better with the ball at the feet of Canales. Zidane left Valverde on the bench, a key player for the energy he brings to the team, although the shortage of good property of his could not be attributed solely to the absence of the Uruguayan youth. The Frenchman opted for Lucas Vázquez among the headlines, ahead Militao, in the side position. There the Brazilian suffers, as was already the case in Porto. Carvajal and Nacho flu forced changes on the right. It is possible that the coach thought about compensating the defensive work, but the truth is that the experiment did not come out French. In reality, nothing came to Madrid.

As soon as Canales, without any pressure, found Fekir, Loren or Joaquín , Betis realized that there was wheat to collect, and without the need to make an effort like the one he made against Barça. With little, Bartra headed in the area, high, Fekir provoked with a volley one of the best interventions of Courtois as Real Madrid and Sidnei scored in the middle of the confusion and the white pie with a whiplash. The play was a sainete. While Betis claimed a penalty, Sergio Ramos made a suicide mistake by losing the ball to Fekir in the area. The opening to the right caused the unexpected.

The lifeguard launched to Madrid in the form of a penalty did not change the crossing, despite the words of Zidane at rest. It was as if the week without playing had caused the effect of a holiday in the players of Zidane and Madrid were in preseason, except for Modric . Joaquin, in a counter launched by Fekir, a devil who made the differences, made a mistake that seemed one of his jokes and avoided a premature sentence that gave Madrid the minutes where he has so often killed from nowhere, already with Mariano on the grass. To do this, however, it lacks what it always had, a punch and merciless. In the exchange of blows, he fell for a mistake by Benzema and because even the substitute Tello was more impious than the French.
