Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad: This setback is Zidane’s fault

V.inicius Jr. saved the day Real Madrid They were tied 1-1 with Real Sociedad Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano Monday night.

Zinedine ZidaneIt would be disappointing to drop points before Sunday’s trip around the city to Wanda Metropolitano to face the leaders Atletico Madrid.

After the first 45 minutes in the eyes of the hosts, the dominant Zidane wanted to switch to a creation with three central backs. Ferland Mendy’s most advanced position was a reaction to his team as he leaked a goal to Christian Board. The formation was changed 15 minutes after the second half.

In the last eight appearances on the Lalica Santander, the board’s starting goal was in third place. Spaniard gave Mendy a tough evening at Valdebas and the injury didn’t stop him running until he was pushed into the second half.

After clean sheets against Getafe, Valencia, Real Valladolid and Adalanda, Thibaut Courtois conceded his first goal in five games when the Portuguese title found a way. The hosts have not yet offered many clear opportunities.

Zidane gave a start against Real Sociedad to Mariano Diaz, who came off the bench against Atlanta. Not because of the former Lyon’s forward attempt to hit the crossbar with a header from close range, but because he lasted 60 minutes before being replaced by Hugo Duro. Did the Real Madrid boss rely too much on the alternative to hitting a draw?
