Mallorca is patenting the anti-Madrid formula

Real Madrid stumbled against all the laws on the first day of the League, succumbing to a draw at Soix (1-1) that leaves them in the slipstream of Barcelona for the first time and that lowers the soufflé created around the new galaxy of Florentino Perez. The 1-1 score against Mallorca was a serious warning to sailors for the constellation of stars led by Carlo Ancelotti.

Vinicius and Kylian Mbappé were always a threat but they only left a few glimpses of their quality and left the island empty; Jude Bellingham returned to the gray version he offered at the end of last season and only Rodrygo found the net against a sensational Mallorca. Even in the last rush Madrid gave them so much joy they found the goal they so desperately wanted to get the three points.

Carlo Ancelotti’s team thought too much after the 1-1, thinking that talent and imbalance were enough to win in Son Moix, but the whites did not expect to meet this version of Mallorca.

Arrasate collected the best virtues that had been a union and Aguirre’s granite team and also added more records with the ball to form a versatile and braver Mallorca than his predecessor.

The Balearic team offered a display of unity and cunning last night to reduce Real Madrid, thus patenting a formula that 80% of the teams in the championship will no doubt try to imitate. Mallorca based their defensive plan on order, concentration, non-negotiable work and well-joined lines and from there, once they got the ball back, they had the necessary patience not to rush and try to tickle Real.

The white team played with fire and easily left Mallorca defeated. Ancelotti’s men already know that nobody is giving anything away and their next opponents have noticed the work of a great Mallorca
