POST MATCH ANALYSIS

REAL MADRID vs Celta vigo

So, first home game. Lots of things were expected. But a tough match at home was not one of them.

Credit goes to 3 Celta Vigo players. Sergio Alvarez, their hitmen Orellano and Guidetti. They weren't easy to play at all. Harworking players. Respect for them to come to the Bernabeu and do this.

About our performance, not 100%. It wasn't the players that were missing. It was team chemistry. Which will in time get better, provided Zidane continues his ways.

First up we have Zidane's formations and tactics ( as requested by fans):

14 wins in a row streak under him. Young, talented and out of control. ONLY ZIZOU. He deployed a 4-3-3 with Toni Kroos, Luka Modrić andCasemiro making up the mid. He stuck with Morata today, and it paid off! He brought on Lucas Vasquez, James Rodriguez and Mariano Díaz at the right. It wasn't his best tactical performance but on the touchline, he sent the right message and it paid off.

More on the players below.

DEFENCE:

Kiko Casilla made some top saves, commanded the box well and honestly, i was just thinking how you can tell him to be second keeper after a string of good performances but as much as i support him, He's error prone. No doubt, it was a brilliant goal and everyone lost concentration but he was yards off. The no cleansheet blame goes to him and Marcelo.
As much as i love Marcelo, tonight, as much as he helped us recover the ball, because of the attacking, he was caught out many times. Carvajal was quiet by his standards. Not at his best but with time, it shall all change.Raphaël Varane is a gem. We're lucky to have him and even when he didnt look himself for about 40 minutes of the game, he made up for it in the end. Last ditch tackles, clearances, you name it. Sergio Ramos, capitano, was honestly an attacker today. Kept a cleansheet for long, only to be outdone by a wonderful strike. Not too shabby from him.

MIDFIELD:
It was 4 years today for Modric. He was as determined as ever. Could have had two stunning goals, but luck was not on his side. Kroos scored his trademark goal. one word. UNSTOPPABLE. How does one stop that.. Casemiro, the rock, was as usual SOLID lol. I feel bad for the teams that face him. He's the next big thing. Keep watching him. Vasquez came on to be a menace and he made the difference with a cool mind and composure for spotting Kroos and laying the perfect ball. James Jani also came on and there are rumours that that was his last game for us. But look at his workrate. Who will make up his absence. He played his heart out today and i shed a tear for him in respect. I just hope he gives himself another chance. He was the reason Kroos scored. He fell down and got back up, recovered the ball for Vasquez and then nudged the defender to make sure Vasquez had time. Not many players show that type of determination. He is still the same JAMES who shook the world with his wonders for Colombia. He deserves to call the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu home.

Attack:

We had Morata with Asensio and Bale on either side. Everyone played their part. I mentioned how i would explain Morata right now. I wanted to explain that he wasn't a bad player. He isn't an inexperienced man. He's just waiting for his first. Today he got it. And minutes later almost got another but for the post. HARSH but thats why we love football. Did you see his workrate from minute 0 in the match till he went off? I did. His luck changed because he kept trying and trying and trying. Good things come to those who wait. Patience is key. He showed it. The boy breathes MADRID, theres no other way to put it. Asensio has the class already, with the skills, passes and what not and he was smart with the finish, just got tired and he was replaced shortly. Bale is good at heading, shots, passes, runs, and freekicks. Basically EVERYTHING. We saw that with his second freekick when Alvarez was busy being SUPERMAN... He is one goal away from his 50th in the shirt. Its just a start for the Welsh Prince. Mariano had a little cameo. Hes staying. Hes sharp. Hes determined and he's fast. Its good he's staying for us.

Summary:

We all expected GOALS GALORE. We got the opposite but its the start of the season and a win is important overall. Celta was a big challenge at home and we had to go into Madrid mode and it worked thanks to James, Vasquez and Kroos! WHAT A WINNER and a worthy celebration.

14wins in the league. Zidane's happy, i'm happy and i hope you all are happy. Hard fought wins feel the best. Hala Madrid! [Credit to: RMPS]
 
Zidane presser after 2 - 1 win against Ceta De Vigo:

- "James improved the team; he's staying here".

- "Both Lucas & James did improve the game a little for us. That's what substitutes are there for, to improve the team."

- "The players grew towards the end and that is what is important”.

- "James looked good to me and that wasn't easy in a game like this. He had a chance to score. He's staying”.

- "We didn't shine, that's true and there is always a chance that in some games we won't play like we want."

- "That's a part of the work we have been doing. We can improve but I'm happy with how we have performed at this start of the season."

- "We've won both of our games and the Supercopa. Now we are going to rest, even though there's the international fixtures”.

- “The heat affected both sides."

- "We had a difficult game against a side who were much more complicated than we expected - especially in attack."

- "We can't always win easily. Easy games don't exist. I'm happy with the three points and the attitude the players showed”.

- "Morata played very well, a very complete performance. He scored one goal and could have grabbed another. I'm happy with him."

- "I brought Mariano on to give the team some fresh legs, because he could help us defend more & take advantage of his acceleration”.

- "Celta? A lot of the time they know how you play, they knew how to block Marcelo and Carvajal”.

- "Modric exerted a lot physically and we need some freshness."

- "Modric looked good, he created chances for us but he was a little off the pace compared to the others”.
