The season has entered its natural phase, with matches every three days, and the rhythm forces the great candidates also to lane victories, without flourishing, because yes. Much of that did Madrid against Espanyol, (already adds seven goals in six games). An afternoon with a protocol air for whites, without the need for display or agonistic efforts, resolved by pure law of gravity. The Espanyol appeared in the Bernabéu without Pere Milla and with the mood of almost all rivals: make the clash long, not skate and refine up. A minimum plan demolished by the two fulminant zurriagazos. By the time Espabilar wanted, he was already 2-0 and added his first defeat of the course. In Chamartín, his last victory in the league is from the last century (1996).

The rotation on the local side touched Arda Güler, headline in the first five games. A movement that meant the novelty of seeing Franco Mastantuono in more organizing functions, ahead of the double Dchouameni and Valverde dike. Up, Gonzalo García (on the right) was released, Vinicius returned from his particular day of reflection and behind the needy Asencio replaced the sanctioned to Huijsen.
Far from the electric starts of Madrid in the preceding duels, the whites presented themselves to the Tran tranwith a slow circulation and a certain appeloting of players in the front, which barely had focus. Espanyol was protected with order, without the need for displays and launched some against another. The evening session traveled in a bitm when the ball reached Militão more than 20 meters from the Perica goal. No one pressed the central because everything seemed to indicate that this was part of an unimportant dispense. Even the Brazilian released a Zapatazo with the right that sneaked like a ray under the Dmitrovic arch, which came to touch her. A right with the Matasellos de Valverde that, finally, took the afternoon out of the nap.
A few minutes before, Militão had beat Roberto Fernández a clear shot in the small area. Rüdiger and Trent Alexander-Arnold’s important injury, plus the low sanction of Huijsen, pushes the Brazilian to play more at this start of the season when their serious knee recent injuries invite the dosing of efforts to protect it and take rhythm. He, for the moment,.
The advantage encouraged Madrid, which, without great displays, raised the rhythm and threatened a Espanyol more seriously than, until that moment, he had lived without shocks. Then, the white offensive battery appeared. Mastantuono left a great break for which there was later no auctioneer, Vinicius sent her out, Gonzalo gave her a racing pass (again very active in attack) and, given the general disbelief, Mbappé wasted the second. Vini was able to run for the first time, he took away from half to Calero, who two minutes before had stayed at a centimeter to finish off a Franco ball, and his pass to the Frenchman seemed the previous step to somewhat sung, but the shot of the Gallic left out.
The passage through the booth did not alter the inertia and the Militão missile followed Mbappé. He received it near the front, nobody counted him and the killer He released a lethal shot to the short stick. With your personal seal. Another target for a collection that grows week by week.
The 2-0 had all the air at the end of the discussion, of the little that had been so far. He felt so, that he released in a great play with Mbappé, which ended with a high petroleum jelly against Dmitrovic. The energy of the Argentine and races, and the production of Mbappé contrasted, again, with the little fruit of Vinicius, which stayed with the desire after sending one to the stick. And since there is no way for the extreme to complete a game, in the absence of a quarter of an hour their attempts were stopped. He was relieved by his competitor Rodrygo. It happened in the midst of a hydration pause, so the replacement passed between the silence of the cobblestone. In the afternoon he only had to attend at the last minute when he returned from his injuries to Bellingham and Camavinga.
