Illara did fine , this ratings dont justify his positional awareness and transition efforts. As ppl focus on attacking players you cant spot such contributions unless you understand total football
Bale the best. He is generous at giving ball to teammates in time, he is fast, he is good at shooting and scoring, he is not as egoist on the pitch as Cronaldo.
Looking down on Ronaldo.. well, last match he seemed the only one who was ready to do everything to win. Of course, considering how passionate he is, his cup was also filled in the end. But in last few games he hasn't missed too many clear cut chances, unlike Benzema. About Clasico, well, Messi indeed scored 3 goals. One of which was very lucky and 2 were fake penalties, like the one Ronaldo had. Saying that Messi devoured him.. I think it is exaggerated. Although he did perform better, no doubt. Blaming anyone won't fix our situation, men need to get over these 2 losses. (Lopez just improved his incredibly crap save ratio with a shot even I would have saved). Well, it seems like Carlo lacks character a little, I think after last game, Pepe, Xabi and Lopez should have been benched. He needs to make the decisions when it is utmost necessary. But in the end, everyone needs to finish the chances better. Anyway, I believe in my team and I believe they will bounce back.
Lopez is lucky to be in... better dont f4ck it up
Real Madrid XI: López; Carvajal, Pepe, Sergio Ramos, Coentrão; Alonso, Illarra, Di María; Bale, Cristiano, Benzema.
Rayo is exactly the boost we need before dortmund game. The rust in goal-machine needs to be rejuvenated will clean barrels again. A heavy scoreline shall rocket our confidence to take care of some business unfinished from last CL.
Rayo is a good team and they play with alot of intensity. This game has the potential to see lots of goals but in the end it all comes down to the chances actually being converted into goals. Posession will be more or less even, both teams will create chances but Real Madrid should be able to clinch a win here.
Real Madrid 2-5 vs Rayo 0-2
Benzema HAS to do better in front of goal. He's been scoring but honestly there's no reason why he shouldn't have scored 4-5 more goals tbh. He misses many shots and Real need him to do better because CR7 and Bale ALWAYS have a man marking them.
Diego López only made two saves in the two games, just a 22% success rate as the last nine shots on Real Madrid’s goal, taken by Barcelona and Sevilla, six ended up in the back of the net and one hit the post (taking the post as part of the goal).
In an internet survey run by AS.com 85% of the voters felt that Casillas should take over the goalkeeping duties for the league games from Diego López. Over 28,000 voted for Iker, compared to just 4,700 who went with the current choice for the league games.
Diego Lopez - the average keeper with burst of form was the reason for our mess up. I blame Carlo for not using his head and playing him again & again in danger situations. Iker without much regular game has done remarkable and far better than him , the clout and influence changes things when he is there.
Xabi was absent in both the crucial matches and led to our defeats..
Pepe was owned n sold in sevilla...
Cr7 is failing when it mattters and messi delivers when it matters . And now there is news that he has been carrying injury since schalke game.
Seriously he should have been not pushing himself then , we dont want to play injured player , we have enough quality to deal with his absense. Cr7 wastes like 15 shots out of 21 . After he fails to score from majority of attempts he tries , he will look for other teammates then. Its ridiculous how selfish he is for personal glory to win his 3rd , than sleflessly care about team glory.
He should quit moaning n perform . He was invisible in clasico(xcept easy penlty) where messi devoured him
Isco
"It is a tough blow to take, because the situation in the league has changed. But we are Madrid, we are obliged to get back up and we have total confidence in our ability to reverse the situation. We have done so before, when we were six points back".
He said the club are looking forward to the next game as they're keen to get back to winning ways: "The sooner the next game, the better. We want to get back into a winning pattern, because right now is the most important moment of the season"
Isco asked the fans to keep the faith
"Yes, it was a big blow for them to take and for us. They should stay calm, we are alive and will give absolutely everything we have. For them to stick by us is very important".

illara played well , open ur eyes
Illarramendi is the weak link. Very poor player!
Bale is a lad can't wait to see Bale vs Reus
Bale needs to start putting up this kind of performances in important games as well, of course he will have enough chances to do it but still.
Varane should play instead of Pepe. Last 2 games quite surely proved that, at least for me. Other than that, good result, considering what we showed.
Bale. What a monster. Future Ballon d'Or winner.
Bale <3 Trully amazing.
That was one hell of a fumble.
Don't know what happened, maybe went under a lawnmower but that shot was top class. Maybe it's because of new haircut xD
morataaaaaaa!!!
MORATA GOOOLASOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Damn Morata WTF happened to your hair bro?
MORATAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Bale the lung buster, what a lad.
Wow Ronaldo has an assist. Quick, call the paper.
Now that's the Gareth Bale I know. Rip em up lad!
WTF BAAAAAAAAAAAAALE!
@Exti his reflexes actually are not good..
What a run by Bale! Great goal :D
Unless Ronaldo scores some own goals and gets red carded, can't see him NOT being MotM. Today his effort has been immense, in defense as well.
Anyway, is it just me or Lopez just showed quite slow reflexes.
Nice to see Ronaldo being unselfish again :)
Great pass by Ronaldo.
I would say Real is now playing much much worse than before Barcelona match. Getting afraid of CL matches now..
yup the roof will be great soon
Even the rainy surface affects gameplay
nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn/nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn/
Great goal by Ronaldo! Too bad I missed first half.. My meeting ran way over :(
The retractable roof that is going to be installed is going to do wonders for wet games like these.
Suarez to madrid. lol
is suarez coming 2 madrid?
Bring iscoooo
final third passing is poor
What lung busting run by Bale, shame he couldn't finish the 1v1
Anyway, look at what Barca got penalty for against Espanyol. Same as usual
I am surprised that Real isn't pressing. Probably because of the heavy rain.
That's a goal with style.
Gooolazoooo
haha! here to those thinking barca n athletico r letting Madrid back in da title- fat chance of dat happening

Fuck off Juve fan , go and support your rigged club, Chameleon.
Jesé: Let's go team for the three points to keep fighting for the lead. You are big #HalaMadrid [@JeseRodriguez10]

There is still hope to win the league, hopefully Atletico loses to Bilbao and Barca lose to Atleti. HALA MADRID
WHy the match is so late? :/ Paco Jemez is cunning coach , he almost won in last fixture. I wonder what he dream yesterday night.

I bet Liga Adelante keeper has better stats
Diego López: six goals conceded from last nine shots on goal
