Chronicle Asensio's left foot vents Madrid and the Bernabéu recovers its joy
Direct Narration and Statistics
Two lashes from
Marco Asensio
, six points for
Real Madrid
.
The Balearic striker, constantly questioned by the fans, is accumulating the best numbers of his sports career: seven goals in the League, nine in all competitions.
The last two,
vital for Madrid's leadership
, have caused two very different celebrations.
Against
Granada
, the Spanish international celebrated the goal by
taking off his shirt and shouting in anger towards the stands
.
Against
Alavés
, he put his
finger to his mouth and told the fans to 'shut up
' before grabbing his shield and raising his arms asking for support.
Before both missiles that slipped into the rival goals, Asensio's performances against Andalusians and Basques
were not being entirely transcendent
.
The public, who goes into ecstasy with his great goals, also criticizes the apathy that he gives off at times.
But if he scores, everyone is happy.
"The public evaluates the game they see and they didn't like what they saw.
We agree with what they think
. None of us agreed with what was being seen in the first half", admitted Carlo Ancelotti, always tolerant.
Just as aware of the demands of the Bernabéu was
Dani Carvajal
, who has also experienced some of those criticisms.
"The whistles are nothing new, in this stadium the demand is maximum, they ask us all to win, we are used to it and in the second half they gave us the plus to win".
The Spanish side confessed the mistakes in Paris: "The team was not good, the coach has given me the opportunity again and I am very calm, one has better or worse days but the important thing is to be here,
to know what one is worth, come back here and eat the rival
."
"We needed this game"
That madridista 'force awakening' ended in a
repairing 3-0
, especially for an Ancelotti questioned in recent days.
"We needed this game. We were missing some quality, especially up front, but in the end the three strikers appeared," said the Italian coach, who insisted on "intensity" as the key to the negative feelings his squad has suffered: "
We still need to enter the games with the necessary intensity
. In Bilbao, in December, we opened the scoring twice, but since then we have had more difficulties. The rivals push hard in the first and usually go down in the second".
The final stretch of the match allowed
Vinicius and Benzema
, the team's top scorers, to recover their relationship with the rival goal.
"
This game is going to help Vinicius
. Him and the whole team," added Ancelotti, who asked his coaching staff to "calm down" after the 1-0 and was sympathetic to the crowd: "
I perceive that the fans are with We
see them hooked, wanting us to win the league. On Tuesday we played poorly, but today I think they
've seen a reaction
."
