Real Madrid
Real's trip to Vallecano was supposed to take place in the early hours of yesterday morning. However, due to a power outage, the match was postponed for a day. And in the replay in the early hours of this morning, there was no incident on the pitch. The lights were back on throughout the match, and Real did not cause any further shocks.
In fact, the match at Vallecano brought the light back to Real. This was Real's first away win in La Liga 12/13, after 2 consecutive losses against Getafe (1-2) and Sevilla (0-1). It was also the second consecutive win for coach Mourinho and his team. In the middle of last week, they also temporarily dispelled the ghost of crisis when they defeated Man City 3-2 in the Champions League.
Real Madrid's victory was not as easy as the 2-0 scoreline suggested. They overcame the difficulties at Vallecas thanks to individual brilliance and luck, not team spirit and play.
Real took the lead in the 13th minute, after Karim Benzema finished close range from Di Maria's delicate cross from the left. They only created one more chance of note between then and the end of the first half, but Modric missed a one-on-one with goalkeeper Ruben in the 24th minute.
By the 33rd minute, the White Vultures were almost facing disaster, again from a high ball. Fortunately, goalkeeper Casillas made a miraculous save after Delibasic's header, before Alonso saved again when clearing the ball right on the goal line after Casado's rebound.
In the second half, Real played more sluggishly, thereby losing control of the game, Casillas' goal encountered many difficulties. However, the White Vultures were lucky to score a goal to increase the score to 2-0. Ronaldo successfully kicked the 11m penalty in the 70th minute after a Vallecano defender used his hand to play the ball in the penalty area. Ronaldo scored, but played very disappointingly in this match. He played very selfishly and missed many opportunities, especially the shot that hit the post when the opponent left it empty.
However, Real still got all 3 points and continued to dispel the suffocating atmosphere in the team when jumping from 13th to 7th on the rankings.
In the remaining late match, Sevilla continued their good form when they defeated Deportivo 2-0 away. The goals were scored by Alvaro Negredo and Ivan Rakitic in the 75th and 83rd minutes. With 11 points after 5 rounds, Sevilla is ranked in fourth place.
