A goal conceded after a rude defensive error, added to a sterile dominance, they open 2022 with a defeat in a game in which the leader did not deserve much more, despite dominating ball and territoriality. The meeting was decided in the areas and there Getafe was more forceful than those of Ancelotti, who give respite to their pursuers on this opening day of the year.

Cantada de Militao

Quique Sánchez Flores has returned to Getafe the character. The azulones are once again a rough team, with a hard leg and a twisted fang. To the spirit of Bordalás the technician has added his good combinative taste. Before him Real Madrid, the coach did his homework, ordering fierce pressure from the start for the whites. Not by chance Sandro Y Unal they bit particularly aggressively Militao, so exalted in the spaces as deficient in the handling of the ball. Something that was revealed after nine minutes, when the Brazilian tried to cut Unal, but the Turk stole the ball and beat Courteous.

The leader was still on vacation when Alaba, a player whose sufficiency has already created problems behind, once again embarrassed Courteous and gave a clamorous occasion to Maksimovic. The azulón failed before the monumental anger of Ancelotti with his defenders. The Italian had surprised leaving on the bench to Hazard, with whom he does not empathize, and placing on foot changing to Rodrygo Y Asensio beside Benzema.

After a quarter of an hour, Modric raised the flow of white game and the party noticed it. The Croatian crashed a left-footed shot into the post and Karim He disguised himself as a pivot, which his teammates thanked him for. When Madrid managed to filter passes into the local spider web, problems came. But Quique readjusted the bolt and the game landed at halftime with a feeling of sterile dominance from a disconnected Real Madrid and with no news from Asensio or Rodrygo.

Hazard as a solution

Ancelotti sharpened his team, which decisively noted the absence of Vinicius. It’s funny how the Brazilian has gone from being a chaotic player to becoming the benchmark of the team in attack. Carletto opted to make the left lane longer with Marcelo instead of Mendy, while replacing an indolent Asensio by Hazard.

Far from offering solutions, soccer Real Madrid was diluted allowing the Getafe settle further to despair of Ancelotti. For the first time in many minutes those of Quique they even appeared in the Madrid area. But the local coach held back the ambition of his team, because spaces appeared in the middle, something that the azulones could not afford. Getafe wanted to keep the game in chloroform to maintain its advantage and a defensive reliability that has kept a clean sheet for five days.

Grab Marcelo

Reacted Carletto putting to Mariano 9 and taking Benzema off the hook to team up with Hazard, Modric and a Marcelo who was starting to produce in his lane. The sense of danger grew, but it did not translate into clear occasions. The crash showed more haste than speed when in a play Damien was clearly grasping the shirt of Marcelo in the local area, but the referee did not understand that it was enough to whistle a penalty. If Ancelotti’s first two changes did not reactivate Madrid, Mariano’s did accelerate the performance of the whites.
