A negative number and usually a bad sign in Real Madrid's superiority against Legianis

Real Madrid have continued their good results in La Liga recently after winning 3-1 at Legianis in the postponed match of the 16th week due to their participation in the Club World Cup.

Zinedine Zidane's team took third place, having risen to 48 points, beating Valencia, who fell to fourth on 46 points.

Many absences

Real Madrid entered the game today without more than one element of the team either because of injury or for the purpose of rest.

Zidane has chosen to exclude Cristiano Ronaldo and goalkeeper Kailor Navas from the match for many meetings in the past, despite the absence of Luka Modric, Tony Cross, Marcelo, and Jesus Vallejo because of injury.

Negative number

The Royal team has been on the defensive since the start of the season, and it is normal to have conceded a goal at least in each game in the last period.

With the goal of defender Vicenza in the net against Kiko Cassia, Real have failed to maintain a clean sheet for the eighth consecutive game in La Liga, the same number of matches in 2018, in addition to not receiving goals in only two of the last 13 games in all competitions in the same year .

Vácquez starred

Lucas Vazquez took advantage of Zinedine Zidane's confidence in the last games since the Paris St Germain match, where he managed to score the equalizer against Leganis in a difficult time, leading Real Madrid to return quickly after a delay.

The Spanish star continues his record for the new year. He is the second-most active player in the league, scoring 4 goals and 6 others behind Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored 10 and made 2.

Bad habit

Despite scoring for the second consecutive game in Allega, Sergio Ramos is still in the series of free yellow cards.

Gonzalez Gonzalez was handed the yellow card in the face of the Merseyside captain after signing with Nabil Al-Zahar, but the card came because of his objection to the decision, to miss Deportivo Alaves's upcoming match in Allega to accumulate the cards.

This is the third game of the season in La Liga, which Ramos is missing from the suspension, having previously missed the matches of Valencia and Sevilla in the first round because of being expelled.

A question mark

Real Madrid midfielder Gareth Bell has only played in the last 14 minutes, despite the many absences of the Royal team, which will open the door to speculation about his departure again after sitting on the reserves in the last two games.

As with Bill, Danny Sibayos and Marcos Yorenti failed to convince Zidane of their ability to get more minutes during the game. The former took the second minute of the game rather than lost, and the other took the lead in the 87th minute.
