Technical and practical angiosis
Planning of the Real Valladolid
The Real Valladolid, led by Paulo Pezzolano, opted for a 4-4-2 scheme, seeking defensive solidarity and taking advantage of the quick transitions to the attack. The defensive line was composed of Luis Pérez and Lucas Olaza as lateral, with Javi Sánchez and Joaquén Ferndez as central. In the midfield, Kike Pérez and Monchu acted as pivots, while Gonzalo Plata and Udscar Plano occupied the bands. In the front, Sergio LeÃ3n and Shon Weissman were responsible for seeking offensive opportunities.
From the beginning, the Valladolid sought to close the spaces to Real Madrid, maintaining a compact defense and lines together to make it difficult to create the game of the rival. However, the high presiding of Madrid and the mobility of its attackers complicated the exit of the Pucelano group, obliging them to resort to long balls that were neutralized by the madridista defense.
Planning of Real Madrid
Carlo Ancelotti disposed of a 4-3 offensive, with Thibaut Courtois in the porter; a defensive line formed by Dani Carvajal, îder Militão, David Alaba and Ferland Mendy; in the midfield, Aurélien Tchouaméni as a defensive pivot, accompanied by Lude
Madrid sought from the beginning to impose its rhythm, controlling the possession and using the speed of its ends to destabilize the rival defense. The mobility of Mbappé, alternating between positions of ‘9’ and falling to the bands, generated constant problems to the vallisolete zaga. Bellingham and ModriÄ. were key in creation, distributing the balloon with appreciation and breaking lines with leaked passes.
Party Development
Real Madrid dominated the position from the beginning, but the Valladolid managed to keep the tie for the first 30 minutes thanks to an orderly defense and the interventions of the goalkeeper Jordi Masip. However, the Madrid insistence paid off in the 30th minute.
goals and assistance
- Minute 30 – Gol de Kylian Mbappé (0-1): Jude Bellingham received the balloon in three quarters of a court and, after a short drive, he leaked a precise pass between the central Vallisoletans. Mbappé, demonstrating its speed and anticipation, disarmed and defined with a scratch shot at the second stick, exceeding Masip.
- Minute 56 – Gol de Kylian Mbappé (0-2): In a fast transition, Luka ModriÄ. recovered the balloon in the midfield and launched a long pass to the right band, where Rodrygo controlled and advanced to the edge of the area. The Brazilian centered in the area and Mbappé, anticipating the defenders, he returned from the bottom of the network.
- Minuto 90+2 – Gol de Kylian Mbappé (0-3): In the past, Jude Bellingham was shot down inside the area by Mario MartÃn, who received the direct red card for lack. Mbappé was in charge of executing the penalti, deceiving Masip and sealing his ‘hat-trick’.
Best Player
No doubt, Kylian Mbappé was the most outstanding player of the meeting. His ‘hat-trick’ not only assured the victory for Real Madrid, but also demonstrated his ability to define in key moments. In addition to the goals, Mbappé actively participated in the construction of the game, performing intelligent disarms and associating himself effectively with his companions. His speed and technique were a constant threat to the defense of the Valladolid.
Arbitrary Poles
The party was relatively free of arbitral disputes until the 80th minute, when an unusual situation occurred. A Valladolid player who was warming hit a ball that had not yet left the field, interfering in the game. The only one left in favor of Real Madrid, but he did not bring the player involved. According to the former Iturralde González, in these cases the offender must be punished with direct free shot and admonition.
Another political action occurred at the 90+2 minute, when Mario MartÃn was expelled for a lack on Jude Bellingham which resulted in a criminality for Real Madrid. Some considered the red card as a severe sanction, arguing that a yellow card would have been more appropriate. However, the rabbi interpreted that lack prevented a manifest opportunity of goal, thus justifying the expulsion.
Conclusion
Real Madrid showed a dominant performance, controlling the game and taking advantage of created opportunities. The society between Bellingham and Mbappé was particularly effective, evidenced by a growing academic in the Madrid attack.
