Controlling the game and leading early, but Real Madrid was still held 1-1 by Atletico because of defensive limitations.

In the fourth derby night of the season, the second in La Liga, it seemed that Real Madrid would escape the fate foretold by the average height of 1.76 m of the defense, as well as the lack of experience in the combination. between the midfielders.

However, fate pulled down coach Carlo Ancelotti’s team like warnings before kickoff.

At the Bernabeu, Real Madrid entered the match with serious damage, forcing coach Ancelotti to patch up his defense.

Ancelotti’s firefighting solution is Dani Carvajal, who plays center back with Nacho. 

But the difficulty is not only that.

During the warm-up for the match, another problem arose, when Vinicius was injured and Brahim Diaz was added to the starting lineup.

After 3 top derbies with 18 goals in which Atletico was always the leading team, this time it was Real Madrid’s turn to open the score.

Stuntman Brahim Diaz participated in the situation, causing Atletico’s defense to stagger, then he himself approached the goal and shot past Jan Oblak.

Real Madrid dominated most of the match, both in terms of ball control, speed and the moments they created in front of goalkeeper Jan Oblak.

When the Bernabeu home team was aiming for 3 points, thereby widening the gap with Girona to 4 points, something unexpected happened.

Llorente equalized for AtleticoIn the situation of a long pass into the penalty area from Atletico players, Memphis Depay jumped high and accidentally headed back to create an assist for Marcos Llorente to close in to score the equalizer.In this phase, the limitations of the reluctant center-back pair Nacho and Carvajal created an opportunity for Llorente to run in and score like no one else.

Atletico, the team that always believes in itself and never gives up, ruined Real Madrid’s party.
