Hazard is still blank in the finals

The season officially started on Helsinki (Finland) for real Madridwith the European Super Cup of football winning against eintracht frankfurt (2-0), is definitive for the revival or not of a Belgian Eden Hazard who got a good start in the preseason, although for now he will have to wait to show his progress in live fire because not he participated. in a final with the team’s white shirt.

And on June 13, 2019 where the Madrid player presented the ‘7’ to his new fans and assured him that he was fulfilling “a dream” came to naught due to constant injuries and the poor level of the player who came from Chelsea is established as one of the best soccer players in the world.

As a madridista his balance in three seasons is six goals and ten assists in 66 games. The explanation lies in the 14 injuries he suffered, with special importance to the ankle injury on November 26, 2019 where, after an osteosynthesis plate was implanted in his right leg, he was not comfortable.

The Belgian could not catch up. The discomfort was constant no matter what he did, something that had never happened to him in his career. For this reason, on March 29, he said enough was enough and decided to undergo surgery to remove this plate and try to start a new life in sports; desire that he himself did not want to hide in the celebration Cybele after attaining 14th Champions League.

“Madridistas, I have been here for three years with many injuries, many things… But next year I will give everything for you”, Hazard assured before the delirium of the Madrid fans, which was visible in every word or a sign to believe in him again.

The first to do this was his coach, the Italian Carlo Ancelotti, and because of this, knowing that the Brazilian Vinicius is unquestionable on the left side, a position where Hazard has historically performed better, a new role was ‘invented’ for the Belgian: false ‘9’.

for ‘Carletto‘, in the absence of a guaranteed replacement center forward -Mariano is still in the squad, but Real Madrid is looking for a way for him- Hazard is the alternative to Benzema when he is not there due to rest or injury, although this may cause injury against Eintracht Frankfurt since the Frenchman played the entire match and Hazard is out of options to replace another footballer.

Since his arrival, the white team has played four finals. The first is the Spanish Supercup of 2020 which he won against Atletico Madridduring which danger still recovering at the entrance of Meunier. In the following two, last season in the Spanish Super Cup and in the Champions League, Ancelotti did not choose him to come from the bench, so he was also left without participation.

Of course, Ancelotti advanced after winning the Super Cup that on Sunday against Almería (22:00 CEST, -2 GMT) in Real Madrid’s first game in LaLiga Santander there will be rounds, and there will be a chance for Belgian.
