Real Madrid fell to Barcelona in a crushing defeat, opening the door to many details and analyses in the upcoming training sessions.<\/p>\n
Barcelona’s heavy defeat at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u left a bad impression on Carlo Ancelotti’s men, as the team struggled to find solutions in a match that was equal in the first half but collapsed due to defensive errors that have become very common.
\nAccording to information from the Spanish newspaper “Defensa Central,” the main player responsible for Barcelona’s first goal was Ferland Mendy.<\/p>\n
The French player, who realized he was involved in the first goal scored by Robert Lewandowski, admitted in front of his teammates, “It’s my fault.” In addition to this admission, the French player apologized for his mistake.<\/p>\n
Ferland Mendy set up the play that led to the Blaugrana’s first goal by failing to follow the offside line correctly. This lack of coordination with his teammates, by not pressing the Barcelona forward, caused complete defensive chaos in an area that was difficult to reorganize, resulting in a goal that unleashed disaster for Real Madrid.<\/p>\n
This is not the first time that Real Madrid has conceded a goal due to a significant defensive error, but most of the time, those errors were corrected during the match. The attacking teammates were also more inspired in those difficult moments, as happened against Borussia Dortmund, but Hansi Flick’s advanced defensive line did not allow it.<\/p>\n
Now comes the most important moment of the season: there are many opportunities to correct the mistakes made against a top-level opponent. The big matches are approaching to determine the future of the season, with direct qualification to the last 16 still at stake against teams like Liverpool and Milan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
