The poor performance of the defense caused Real Madrid to almost hang their shirt against Club Brugge right at home at the Bernabeu.
Main content Hide / ShowCompeting lineup
Welcoming the small team Club Brugge at home, Real Madrid did not hesitate to attack right from the opening whistle.
Right in the 9th minute, from a methodical attack arrangement by Brugge, combined with an erroneous offside trap by Real Madrid’s defense, Dennis was placed in a very easy range to score to break the deadlock.
As if his pride was touched, the White Vulture put all his strength into attacking right after the goal.
Attacking a lot but not scoring goals, the cruel rule once again comes to Real.
Entering the second half, coach Zidane shocked him by replacing Courtois with Areola, and that immediately took effect in the 54th minute, when the French goalkeeper made a brilliant save.
1 minute after that ball, joy finally came to the home team.
In the minutes that followed, the pressure Real exerted on the opponent’s goal was suffocating.
In the final minutes, Real Madrid tried every way to score more goals, but facing the opponent’s tight defense, Ramos and his teammates could not achieve their goal and accepted to leave with 1 point.
