“I’m sorry to say, but he can no longer work under me at Madrid”- Ancellotti breaks £43M forgotten Madrid star’s heart and tells him to look for a new club by January after causing the first and Second Goal vs Rayo Vallecano- It’s the End
Real Madrid’s latest match against Rayo Vallecano was a mixed bag for the team, with some players impressing while others struggled. Here’s a breakdown of how each player performed:
In goal, Thibaut Courtois had a decent game, but might have been able to prevent the third goal. He was given a rating of 5/10.
The defense was a major concern, with Lucas Vazquez being beaten at the back post for the Rayo opener. He was given a rating of 5/10. Aurelien Tchouameni had a poor game, failing to track the late runner on one goal and losing sight of another on the equalizer. He was given a rating of 5/10.
Antonio Rudiger was a bright spot in the defense, winning almost everything in the air. However, he wasn’t exactly the assured presence needed when Rayo hit on the break. He was given a rating of 6/10. Fran Garcia had a mixed game, showing some real attacking intent at times but also being caught out of position on Rayo’s first goal. He was given a rating of 6/10.
In midfield, Federico Valverde had a strong game, smashing one home from 30 yards out to cue the comeback. He was more assured on the ball than in recent weeks and was solid at right-back when needed. He was given a rating of 7/10.
Luka Modric had a mixed game, with some lovely passages of play but also being outrun at times. He was given a rating of 5/10. Arda Guler ended the game with two assists, despite not being heavily involved. He was given a rating of 7/10.
Jude Bellingham had a fine midfield performance, being useful at both ends and scoring for his fifth straight game with a lovely glancing header. He was given a rating of 8/10.
Overall, Real Madrid’s performance was inconsistent, with some players impressing while others struggled. The team will need to regroup and refocus if they hope to achieve success this season.
