In the 11th round of La Liga, the long-suffering Real Madrid, led by the new coach Santiago Solari, took Valladolid, who was above the “creamy” in the standings. The temporary entrenadore of the hosts was forced to do without the entire main line of defense, in good health only the captain of the team Ramos. Madrid actively started the meeting, occupying the other half of the field in the hope of scoring a quick goal, in the 4th minute Benzema was very close to the goal, the ball whistled from the penalty area after the penalty kick near the goalpost.
After that, in the game Real Madrid, there was some lull, despite the impressive advantage in possession of the ball, Solari's wards almost did not break through on goal, and if there were any, the ball either became easy prey for Masip or fell past the alignment. Toward the end of the second 45-minute “creamy” they gave the ball to the opponent at all, who almost opened the scoring when Suarez led Antonito on a date with Courtois, but he threw the ball not only through the goalkeeper, but also through the gate. A short time later, Unal could open an account after Michel’s targeted submission, but his header from the vantage point lacked accuracy.. The teams went to the break without having to print each other’s gates..
After the game was resumed, the hosts took over the game and territorial advantage, setting the game at a high pace, which the players of Valladolid did not always cope with.. Kazemiro had a good opportunity to score, having delivered an aimed blow to the bottom corner, but Masip was on the alert and turned the ball over to the corner.. Solari decided to make an early substitution in order to strengthen the attack, removing Kazmero from the field and launching Isco instead.. True, immediately after his appearance, dangerous moments began to appear not at the gates of Masip, but Courtois. First, the crossbar saved the Real Madrid after hitting Alcaras and ricocheting from Kroos, and then the Real goalkeeper saved his team by beating Vilyu in melee.
Wards Solari owned a lot of the ball, controlling it on another side of the field, but closer to the goal scored was his opponent, the same Villa shot at goal from long range, after which the crossbar again saved the hosts. After that, Real Madrid completely took the ball to himself and tried not to give it to the wards of Gonzalez in order to avoid repetition of dangerous moments at their gates. Madrid from time to time struck at goal, but they did not conceal any threat to Masip. To some time, even fresh Vazquez and Vinicius did not help, but then the second still contributed to the team success - in the 83rd minute the Brazilian received a pass from Isco, shifted to the center and shot through the goal, the ball flew past the target, but got into Olivas and flew into the net - 1: 0.
Having taken the lead, the hosts did not stop there and continued to attack, and managed to double the lead - in the 87th minute, Calero knocked Benzema in the penalty area, for which a penalty was awarded, which Ramos then confidently converted - 2: 0.
After that, the “creamy” calmly brought the match to a logical conclusion and celebrated the long-awaited victory, the first in 6 matches, which will slightly improve the team's mood after such a long series of setbacks.
