• Chronicle: Madrid delivers the lead in Mallorca

Zinedine Zidane defined with a very punitive expression the ineffectiveness of his team in Son Moix. «We have dominated but without creating occasions. And so it is impossible, ”he said about the impotent game of Real Madrid , without nails all night. Only a white goal shot can be found in the 94 minutes of the crash: a lazy Benzema , at the hands of the goalkeeper.

Neither the previous lessons served, before a humble but determined, energetic rival since the ball was rolled. Not like Madrid. "There are several games and where it is difficult for us to enter," summed up the French coach, with the same face as any fan of his team that yesterday supported the function of his team. Defeat, vanished leadership, downpour of doubts again and very bad body for the commitment that appears: the house of the Galatasaray , with the European Cup at stake.

Saturday began for Zidane losing a cash without even stepping on Mallorca. It was Eden Hazard , in the hospital for the birth of her fourth child. One more casualty, although neither the Belgian had the title guaranteed by the shadow of the exam in Turkey.

Tomorrow the whites are already traveling to Istanbul, where on Tuesday a very important meeting awaits them because of their bad start to the Champions League, with a point only in two days. Another who was not in Palma was Carvajal , by decision of his coach. In his place appeared Odriozola, busy in the previous hours and fatal in the game. As reported by the agency Efe, the Madrid side, a great lover of horses and owner of a stable in San Sebastián, took a copy yesterday for 50,000 euros by telephone auction. This is a foal with a pedigree: the son of the winner of the Epsom Derby (Australia). It is the third horse he buys in the last two weeks. On Monday he acquired one of 52,000 euros, and days before another for 30,000.

A LACK OF IMPRUDENT

Worse was Odriozola on the grass. He started seeing the local goal in the foreground and ended up worse, ejected for entering too strong when he was already dragging a yellow one. Desolate, he spent a while at the door of the locker room turning the clumsy action. «The second yellow is fair. I think that at that moment with a card there is no need, ” Courtois said at the end. The lane was also the protagonist in the first minutes, unable to stop the arrival of Lago Junior, author of 0-0. He defended the defense without the help of his teammates, until he saw how the Mallorcanist adjusted the ball to the opposite post.

Again Madrid was left scratched in the first attempt of his rival, a dangerous mania. It was one of the risks of Zidane's lineup, with many players looking at the opposite area. In the medulla he left Casemiro alone, with two very offensive flyers, such as Isco and James. Valverde, on the starting bench, had to leave soon in the second half for his people to try to fix things. In the last minutes, Madrid asked for a penalty for a grab on Brahim. Also before for a foul on Casemiro , without the VAR going into those actions. With one less, the whites tried desperately. Nor did they manage to avoid the first defeat in the League.
