La Real fell at the Santiago Bernabéu in a poor match that saw them suffering a crushing defeat against Real Madrid. In less than a minute, the Whites took the lead and the txuri-urdin team were overwhelmed by the Real Madrid attack.
It is not easy to stand in front of the merengues during 90 minutes at the Bernabéu and this time, the txuri-urdin players could not stop them not even for a minute. Lucas Vázquez scored with a header and put Real Madrid one up. The game was decided. Kroos scored the second of the night and Cristiano scored his second and the fourth for the hosts. La Real were toothless up front and were losing 4-0 before the half-time.
In the second, the match was lacking in intensity and was already determined. La Real didn’t take advantages of their clear chances in goal, Juanmi’s header went over the bar but the goal finally came. Jon Bautista pulled one back for la Real with his left-footed effort and thanks to Oyarzábal’s assist. From then on, Real Madrid scored the fifth of the night with Cristiano completing his hat-trick. Before the final whistle, Illarra stabbed home.
We must get a change of attitude. We have no choice. Now, la Real must focus on Europe and show a different face. Aúpa Real!
