Ajax was planted at the Santiago Bernabeu uninhibited, fearless. Just a few days ago did Rayo Vallecano. A commendable approach, but as they say, to brave the cemetery full. Some of what themselves were conscious Racing and the Levant, as demonstrated by waiting back and ordered, without giving the Madrid spaces becomes stabbing. And one of those stab wounds were wards of the Frank de Boer in the 1-0 when the white set savored his favorite dish, backlash, and Kaka, Cristiano, Benzema Özil and smiled for having known. dizzying combination of first touch, with each part knowing what position to occupy on the board, and putting in check behind Dutch.
But the overwhelming capacity for counter does not exculpate the mother of his scores. And most of them remains the most often: the game combined, overcoming the defenses when the attack is static with no roads by which plunge. The Ajax came true to its principles of treating the ball well and have possession , pressed up to Madrid and put him into trouble at times. Both Casillas and for all who draw the ball. Last night, without Marcelo, this work was always in the hands of Xabi Alonso, who used his best weapon: the long ball and crossed into the end position. And one of them found a Christian, who put it to Kaka for a cross shot put dry 2-0. A Madrid without effort, presented his credentials: "Look, I am not the better he plays, but I can destroy you three hits."
But even still enough qualities to sow panic among his opponents and winning games, they can not comply. Mainly because they themselves know they are capable of more. They showed in the Super Cup against Barca, where they practiced their best football in recent years. Surely now they are victims of physical slump. You can also stumbling Levante and Racing they have undermined confidence in themselves. Or maybe the mind does not encourage an opponent as anyone against a Barca shirt.
However, Madrid should go further. When coupled with players like Alonso, Christian, Benzema, Kaka Özil and obviously you can. Not to mention that an Sahin, without having debuted yet, looking forward the Bernabeu because he knows what it can contribute by Xabi. Perhaps the best midfielders in the world are those of Barça but Real Madrid are not lame enough to be dominated by any rival.
And Kaka wants to join the cause, the recovery seems so close and exciting. Much less has become the Golden Ball a few years ago, but gradually is entering the Brazilian on the team and their actions do not go in vain. Because although last night was the most striking, is now a series of parties leading the meeting. Which is pretty noteworthy given its track record to date white. His was the second, and third party assistance to Karim Benzema who left the pitch injured, but ultimately does not seem very serious.
By the way, which debuted Hamit Altintop, the player who for the past four months since his signing was announced, has only been appointed to make jokes and be despised for free. Although their destination in Madrid will be linked to its versatility, serve as data that Mourinho has started using it in the right wing.
