Real Madrid lost to Barcelona 4-0 in the first Clásico of the current season, falling 6 points behind the leaders Barcelona, who sit in first place.
Hansi Flick’s team took full advantage of the Madrid team’s defensive errors. One player who contributed significantly was Lamine Yamal, who managed to score and make the score 0-3.
The Spanish international was a real nightmare for the Madrid defense; he is a player who always makes people talk about what he does on the pitch, and he rose to the occasion last night.
According to the newspaper “Defensa Central,” the Barcelona player exchanged shirts with Real Madrid star Luka Modric, which shows that the legend of the Royal team’s midfield is appreciated not only by his teammates but also by his rivals.
The newspaper added that the young player did not hide his admiration for Modric, as he previously stated: “He is an amazing player and a reference for all footballers in the world.”
The Spanish player left his team’s celebrations and quickly went to ask for Modric’s shirt, in a moment that expresses the admiration young players have for what the Croatian international offers.
The newspaper pointed out that within the Merengue club, they believe that there is still a lot of season left, as Carlo Ancelotti said in the press room. However, there is a feeling that this defeat represents a turning point.
Obviously, there are reasons to reflect and try to change the current situation. The gap of six points with Barcelona is surmountable, but it is true that La Liga has become very complicated.
