The irregularity of Real Madrid

Date:

Real Madrid suffered their fifth defeat of the season in 22 games against Athletic Club (2-1) in San Mamés. Furthermore, the three draws highlight the white team’s irregular start. In the last ten seasons, he has won less than this point in only one season: in 2018-2019, the first after the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo.

During that time he went nine games without scoring three points. Currently one, eight, as in 2019-2020 and in 2020-2021.

In 2020, they managed to win the League, in the edition interrupted by the coronavirus pandemic, and were eliminated in the second round of the Champions League. In 2021, they were runners-up in the League and lost in the ‘Champions’ semi-finals against Chelsea, the eventual champions.

A continental competition where the current season has recorded its worst start since it was known as champions league, in 1992. Three defeats in five games to start a new league format with all participants and this included two more days.

In addition, it includes a change in the qualification format for the playoffs. The first eight classified, directly in the round of 16, and the next 16 in the extra round of sixteen to get a place in the next stage; and of these, the Real Madridd, with three games remaining, Real Madrid is 24th. Up to the limit.

A limit that does not reach the prescribed dand Carlo Ancelotti in the League, as they recovered from the 0-4 defeat suffered against Barcelona, ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Overcome andReal Madrid against an Athletic that played with great intensity in front of its spectators. Although, yes, Ancelotti’s team left empty-handed due to two mistakes: the missed penalty – the second in a row after the one at Anfield – by Kylian Mbappé and an error in releasing the ball by Fede Valverde with a tie at one on the scoreboard and which meant the final 2-1.

Defeat representing the second of the season in the League, after the classic. And added three in the Champions League, five in total in the last 11 games. More than the previous 73 games.

Furthermore, the real Madrid He lost more than twice as many games as last season (2), in a campaign that Ancelotti himself recently recognized as the easiest to manage in his long career as a coach and ended with a League and Champions League double .

Lille, Barça, Milan, Liverpool and Athletic, the executioners of a real Madrid which does not find regularity. In 2018, after Cristiano left. In 2024, after Kroos’ injury, the injuries -24 to 14 players- and the failures ofand Kylian Mbappé.

After getting back on track in the League, cutting the points from a Barcelona now down to four, yes, with Ancelotti’s team still to play, in the Mestalla against Valencia, doubtful to return to a Real Madrid who visited in Girona this Saturday and next Tuesday they have a transcendental match in the Champions League.

Still in December, but unable to afford a setback that would take them out of the qualifying positions, the white team will visit a team on Tuesday in Bergamo Atalanta on a streak: second in Serie A and fifth in the ‘Champions’. Third important visit for an irregular Real Madrid.
