Without a goal there is no paradise for an offensive and improved Real (0-0)

La Real was unable to topple a difficult Valladolid, with a square defense, and still did not win or leave the bottom zone despite adding a point and leaving a clean sheet. The great qualitative leap in the game was not enough, especially in an attack full of opportunities and play, with a return to the diamond in 4-4-2. Imanol He found different ways to produce, outside, inside, with centers, in space, the image is better, but it did not help to win.

And Real have no goals. There is a fee for that. And even though Real invested 40 million in forwards and another 50-something between wingers and midfielders, they haven’t found it so far. Txuri Urdin has now gone 449 minutes without scoring a goal and just three in total in seven games played. A brutality that makes it absolutely impossible to win and compete to be on top. Time to sharpen your aim now, because football doesn’t wait. They were left five points out of 21 just days before the start of their trip to Europe.

Imanol is refreshing again

Imanol Alguacil decided to continue with the rotation policy, only in certain positions, from the beginning of the season, with the aim of refreshing the team, in his own words. He changed four players with respect to the defeat in Mallorca. He sat down Oyarzabal, Barrenetxea, Aritz and Aihenat least three of them are expected, to enter hut, Becker, Aramburu and Oskarsson. The Icelander enjoyed his first start at Real after three games off the bench. Oriotarra chose to give continuity to the couple Zubeldia–Aguerd and stayed with the team Sergio Gomezwhich is his wild card, but gives him a new function: being a left back. This is the position he has played in at City and the sixth in which he has played in the seven games he has played for Real. An impressive figure.

The rhombus forms but suffers in the back

Most surprisingly, when the match started, Real saw the famous 4-4-2 diamond regained, proving that Imanol He lied again in a press conference. “Why didn’t I do it? Because after so many changes and not having done a preseason, I don’t want to confuse the new players too much,” he said on Friday. If so, hut He acted as a playmaker behind a double striker with Oskarsson and Becker.

Not even a C was allowedUadra Fernandez at Royal. He advised Aguerd in the 20th second due to an aerial dispute with Latasa where he released his elbow. Yellow can be avoided, but conditioning. La Real suffered heavily on the diamond after losing balls, as Valladolid found free men who could easily break out in a hurry. However, Real are more productive in attacking runs of Beckerthe game behind Oskarssonthe internal movement of hut and Sergio’s additions Gómez and Aramburu. Real had enough chances to take the lead.

The double chance in the ninth minute was incredible. Becker filtered perfectly to hutcoming from behind, and he stood alone in the place, he passed the death that would send the goal Oskarssonbut Ozkacar He did a heroic thing by stretching his legs to the maximum to save the goal to the point that he broke down and demanded a change. The rebounder remained dead and shot Aramburu with his left foot but stopped hey. The Icelandic could also have scored with a left-footed volley but missed the ball after a superb long delivery. Zubeldia. It was hard then.

Not enough opportunities

It’s easier Beckerthe clearest in the fight. After Real left a corner, hut He went out of his way to get there and produced a brilliant threaded pass just over the touchline for Becker 60 meter race alone. He took too long to decide and his shot was blocked Amallahreaching a sprint on the horn. Suriname is one of the most active, if not the most active. It didn’t stop breaking and overflowing but those had to be put down. He also had a header on the stroke of half-time. He headed a great center down. Aramburu and hey He stuck his hand out to walk, leaving the game goalless at halftime. Valladolid hardly had any goals, except for an individual play by Moro that ended with a high and far shot. Real did not take advantage of the glove Sergio Gomez in different actions in the play or set piece.

The second half started brightly, with two errant actions by sucicone on each side of the field. He first hit the ball badly on a clear back pass from Sergio Gomez that he sent away, bitten. Then in a dangerous loss without returning to a sprint that caused a local counterattack that was solved with efficiency Aramburu with a defensive action that is inferior to those that should be placed in football academies. Wonderful. He also tried his luck Latase from the middle of the field and then Mooron the run, but Remiro He took a good leg to avoid the goal.

Domain and ‘Royal’ desert

La Real pushed relentlessly, especially after the double substitution on the clock. Becker he placed an impressive center Oyarzabal As soon as he entered he was angry and his head was high. Zubimendi He was close to the goal but the tangle of defenses prevented the goal. The referee has disallowed a goal Oyarzabal to pass Zubimendi for millimeter offside after a corner. I could have thrown the pivot. The most obvious in the second half is for Beckeragain. After receiving a pass inside the penalty area hutwell controlled and shot without regard or angle for the ball to hit the crossbar. After a while he got it again Oyarzabal after getting into the area to finish off a loose ball that came off a rebound, but instead of controlling or finishing acrobatically, he produced a strange and inefficient header while turning his back. Imanol also came out Sadiq for the last stretch and Aguerd He froze, demanding change. come in Pacheco. The Nigerian started the bike in a counterattack but was unable to dribble and in a good cross Sergio Gomez He holds his chest and is not quick to nail.

Latase He caused a scare with a towering header in added time, Becker They eventually played it from distance, but the scoreboard didn’t budge and two more points flew by.
