Another Madrid blank The christmas gift for Messi
There is a move of the recent focus of the time counter that runs through Barcelona. The 1st December at the Metropolitan was reached the minute 85 with 0-0 on the scoreboard. Then Messi grabbed the ball on the right touchline, a few yards ahead of the center of the field and activated one of the plays most simple manual for barca: he started to run towards the goal. As they neared the area, the face of Simeone reflected the anguish of the inevitable. The pictures even show how the Cholo misses a kick so reflected, as if wanting to interrupt the 10 in the distance. Messi moved forward, gave in briefly to the ball to Suarez, who was left almost at the same point, and beat Oblak where everyone knew it would. Simeone applauded.
The 50 goals a year Messi, who once topped the polyphony with the barca colonizing the center of the field, now take the computer out of the quagmire in which it has been falling with the retirements of Xavi and Iniesta and the wear and tear of Busquets. In addition, the 13 leading in this League you add up the 10 of Suarez, and the 7 of Griezmann. A deck that already is not a child’s game. Did not work André Gomes, Coutinho or still Arthur. Valverde has had to resort to the almost hopeless Rakitic and dissonance style of Arturo Vidal.
In the otro corner, Benzema holds the pulse with 12 goals, but the following list is Ramos with three, two from the penalty spot. Bale has only marked two and Hazard, one. The trident white hunting half barca.
The known difference is Cristiano Ronaldo, who left the club in the summer of 2018. Florentino Perez had planned to alleviate, in part, that flight with the addition of Eden Hazard after the World cup in Russia, but according to sources familiar with the negotiations, Marina Granovskaia, director-general of Chelsea, determined to keep the belgian a season even at the cost of lowering substantially the price of an operation cooked for months.
Without such incorporation, or any other weight, the Madrid penó especially in the course 2018-2019. Hazard came to the Bernabeu this summer, but was injured against PSG when he began to take flight, after 13 games and a single goal in 984 minutes.
The other solutions for the goal are also pending to germinate. Given the impossibility of hiring footballers such as Harry Kane or Kylian Mbappé, at the offices of the white club insisted on the path of a young promising slope of the last point of cooking. After investing 90 million euros in Vinicius and Rodrygo, spent $ 60 on Luka Jovic —turned 22 years old this Monday, which last year scored 27 goals in 48 matches for Eintracht Frankfurt. The white dome awaits between impatience and intrigue the outcome of a risky bet. Jovic has scored once in 423 minutes spread over 14 meetings, has met twice in the sticks and in three other hits, the VAR will catch on outside of the game. Round the goal. Those who see train ensures that boasts an accuracy remarkable.
While it comes, has started to run something more unexpected, a center of the field that summer left bare of troops. The emergence of Fede Valverde and the resuscitation of Kroos have greased a piece of machinery that helps to protect the rear —only 12 goals conceded— and to work profusely to the attackers, though with little coda. The back of the boat, a cross of dashes.
