Real Madrid suffered a heavy defeat at Anfield last night, leaving the team in a very difficult position in the Champions League group stage.
Words cannot fully capture the team’s poor performance against Liverpool, especially in the second half, which saw the match go from some of their best moments to their worst.
However, there was a bright spot on that dark night for Real Madrid: the performance of Raul Asensio, who played exceptionally well in a very challenging stadium. Alongside him, Antonio Rudiger stood out, showing moments of defensive strength.
Based on this outstanding performance and according to reports from the Spanish newspaper “Defensa Central”, Real Madrid have begun to view Asensio as a potential successor to Nacho Fernandez in the future. This is promising news for the club’s fans.
Despite the defeat, Asensio demonstrated his great potential, proving that he is capable of securing a spot in Carlo Ancelotti’s starting lineup.
Given his impressive performances, Real Madrid are now seriously considering promoting him to a regular first-team role for the upcoming matches and are looking into improving his contract as a reward for this well-deserved “promotion.
