Real Madrid’s first defeat This year’s La Liga came in a loud way, as the Chabi Alonso team met 5-2 from Atletico to Metropolitan for the 7th match.
The Spanish technician appeared particularly disappointed At the press conference, stressing that the image of his team was not reminiscent of the previous appearances: “It was a bad game from us. We didn’t start well, nor did we play properly. We were not at the level required with or without the ball and so we were punished. It was a fair defeat“, Alonso emphasized.
Continuing, he stood at the low intensity of his team: ‘The most worrying thing is that the tension was missing. We didn’t compete as much as we should and we didn’t find ourselves at the level of these games and these opponents. We lost personal duels, we had no solutions to the ball, nor did we regain possession on the half -stadium of the opponent. In general, it was a very bad look”
Concerning the second half, he revealed: ‘In the locker room we said to start as if it were a new game, but we didn’t. There were phases that cost us, such as the penalty and the foul. We didn’t play in our level and we were punished”
Despite the bitter defeat, Alonso tried to see the positive side: ‘It is a painful lesson, but we have to use it for the future. We are still in the beginning, we know where we started and we build. It matters how we will react. We need to learn from this and continue”
