Big win for Real Madrid, look much better under Solari. Benzema rejuvenated
Yep a great win for Real Madrid to comeback for the title fight. Great goals scored by Benzema and Ceballos. Ramos has balls of steel for scoring penalties in Panenka style. The sad news for Real is about injuries Nacho, Regullon, Casemiro 😔
Impressive first touch by Benzema and goal assisted by Luka Modric
Thought Valencia would equalise but Madrid did Well to kill it off. Another win under Solari and they’re just 2 pts off Barca who have Villarreal tomorrow. Safe to say real are back in the title race
The 1st half for Real Madrid was very good especially on defense. The pressure from the players on every Valencia goal kick or the new posession cost a lot of mistakes from them and this helped Real to pressure them on the attack also. The 2nd half started very awful with a lot of silly mistakes and bad touches but still Real Madrid was decent in the defense which this season are always struggling. Overall a hard but good game for Los Blancos but could be much better on the attack. But the important thing is 3 points. Now we need to recover the injured players and try to improve our game before the most important 2nd half of the season.
Real Madrid squad for tonight's game against Rayo Vallecano
Goalkeepers: Navas, Casilla and Courtois.
Defenders: Carvajal, Vallejo, Ramos, Varane, Marcelo and Odriozola.
Midfielders: Kroos, Modric, Valverde, M. Llorente, Asensio, Isco and Ceballos.
Forwards: Benzema, Lucas Vázquez and Vinicius Jr.
Finally Kroos is back and he expected to be in the starting lineup. I really want to see Vinicius in the starting lineup as well. Real Madrid should win this game easily and it would be great to see youngsters involved. Really expecting more from Benzema because in the last game he played really poor as a forward besides his plays on the creating chance for others.
