Chronicle. Madrid comeback in the abyss
Group B. El Shakthar, leader after 0-0 against Inter
The Lawnmower: The Hanged Man's Goals
They
demanded self-criticism from
Zinedine Zidane
in the press room, when what he wanted was to celebrate that sharp tie of flavor for the agonizing way of achieving it and for the weight of the point achieved, in view of the situation of the group.
He preferred to stay with the final reaction and with the good first hour of football of his own, shaken by the effective German cons.
He did not seem concerned about the obvious scoring problems of his team, a mortgage that is usually paid very expensive in the
Champions League
.
Against
Shakhtar
and yesterday at
Borussia Park
, only Madrid saw the door when he began to beat the drum, pulling on the classic courage of the shirt.
"Playing like this, we will do great things and go to the second round," predicted the French coach, once again saving the mission in the bell.
He liked the football of
Marco Asensio
, the waste of
Fede Valverde
or the forward pressure ... Good script, but dismounted when the infallible Kroos lost the ball at the worst possible moment.
That is the risk, especially in the great continental tournament, when dominance does not translate into advantage.
Because in the Champions League anyone scratches you.
After drawing, Madrid continued looking for the third, to the tachycardia of their coach, when they saw the last arrival of
Borussia
.
When the referee whistled the end, the whites were devastated by the effort in search of that 2-2 that improves the group's prospects so much, always, of course, that from now on Zidane's men stop adding one by one.
The point is that the victories must begin to arrive already in the next two days, against Inter in
Valdebebas
and in
Milan
.
The Italians have not won yet either, surprised on the first day by Borussia and yesterday by Shakhtar in Kiev.
"Tastes like victory"
The league is backwards, with the Ukrainians leading.
These surprising results allow Madrid, despite only taking one point in two games, even aspire to first place.
"It's not three points but it tastes like victory," said
Eden Hazard,
back and starring in the final minutes.
The comeback came when he and
Luka Modric took
to the grass.
Even the Belgian had a clear chance to score.
"We have shown great character," applauded the star that Zidane longs for.
In his boots should be the offensive quality jump that whites need so much.
The expedition, at midnight, left the silent Borussia Park with the spirits fired by the last reaction and the calculations made on the calculator.
"A point of gold",
