Ancelotti said on Monday that he wanted more energy at the start of games because Madrid had only scored one goal in the first half of a La Liga or Champions League game this season. His request was quickly met. Los Blancos had the upper hand, and Alaves’ shots barely reached Thibaut Courtois’ penalty area.
Still, Madrid’s second goal didn’t come until five minutes before halftime, when Mbappe and Jude Bellingham worked together beautifully. Mbappe, the captain of France, flicked a pass to the England player, who then finished a one-two by setting up his teammate for a goal.
It took Mbappe two quick touches to get past his defender and get a clear shot on goal. He then scored his fifth league goal with ease. Soon after the break, Rodrygo made it 2-0 for Madrid by dribbling in from the right side and shooting through the legs of Alaves goalie Antonio Sivera.
Teenage Brazilian scorer Endrick’s shot hit the post after deflecting off the post, and Abde Rebbach also hit the post when Alaves made a rare. When Madrid replacement Endrick, 18, kicked out at Alaves defender Santiago Mourino, he was lucky not to be sent off.
The away team tied the game again in the 85th minute when Protesoni curled in a beautiful shot from the edge of the box. Then Protesoni played a nice pass over the top, and Garcia scored a good goal with it. Madrid held on to win, making it their 39th straight league game without a loss. This is Ancelotti’s 300th game in charge of the club over two stints, and it comes before Sunday’s derby match at the Metropolitano with Atletico Madrid.
The last time they lost in the top league was at the Rojiblancos’ home, exactly one year ago. At the end of the game, Ancelotti yelled at the referee because he didn’t like that some of his players were getting yellow cards while some of Alaves’ players got away with hard tackles. “Fair or unfair, we have to learn the new rules,” Ancelotti said later, when he was calmer. Several of his players were getting yellow cards for protesting calls.
The Alaves boss, Luis Garcia Plaza, was also at the end of the game because Endrick got away with the. The boss said, “Endrick should have been given a red card, and we should have played the last 10 minutes with an extra player.” “It’s red, that’s all there is to it. I won’t say anything else about it.”
Kylian Mbappe, a striker for Real Madrid, hurt his thigh before this weekend’s La Liga with Atletico, his club said on Wednesday. The French great was taken off during Tuesday’s 3-2 win over Alaves because he looked like he was hurt. According to Spanish sources, Mbappe will be out for about three weeks with an injury.
After tests today by Real Madrid’s medical staff on our player Kylian Mbappe, they found that he has an injury to the biceps femoris in his left leg. This was stated in a statement by the Spanish champions.
Mbappe scored a great goal in the exciting game at the Santiago Bernabeu against Alaves. He has scored five goals in seven league games this season. When asked about Mbappe’s health after the game, Carlo Ancelotti, the coach of Real Madrid, said, “He’s fine, he’s fine. A little overloaded, he asked me for the change to avoid problems.”
After Barcelona’s game against Getafe, Madrid is a point behind in the league. On Sunday, they will travel to the Metropolitano stadium to play foes Atletico. Since their loss at Atletico a year ago, Real Madrid has not lost in La Liga for 39 games.
The striker will also miss next week’s Champions League game at Lille, as well as France’s Nations League games against Israel and Belgium in October. A long-held dream came true for Mbappe this summer when his deal with Paris Saint-Germain expired. He joined Real Madrid.
After taking a few games to get used to life in Madrid, the 25-year-old has been playing his best lately. Mbappe has scored seven goals in nine games for Real in all competitions. He scored in August’s UEFA Super Cup win over Atalanta and on his debut in the Champions League.
In Tuesday night’s 3-2 win over Alaves, Mbappe scored for the fourth game in a row, and Madrid came back from a late to win. Alaves was beaten by Madrid thanks to goals from Lucas Vazquez, Mbappe, and Rodrygo. However, the guests scored a late goal that shook Carlo Ancelotti’s team.
Last-minute goals from Carlos Protesoni and Garcia put the game out of reach, but Madrid hung on. “That’s football. Just when you think the game is over, they score the first goal, boost their confidence, and you lose,” Ancelotti said. “We don’t want this to happen, but it could.” We need to that the team played well for an hour, which gives us hope.
Even though Alaves had a good start to the season, Real Madrid dominated the game from the start. It was a very uneven match for most of it. Ancelotti put Vinicius Junior back in the starting lineup and gave Vazquez a rare start. In the first minute, the two crossed the ball to each other. The Brazilian winger came in from the left side and cut the ball back so Vazquez could easily score.
