Hansi Flick gets everyone in agreement
“Real Madrid destroyed by Hansi Flick” placard Marca on its front page. It’s pretty crazy to read that, especially from a pro-Madrilenian newspaper. But the daily newspaper is not mistaken and recognizes that the arrival of Hansi Flick has restored Barça to greatness. Mundo Deportivo salutes this triumph which arouses no debate and congratulates this team which exposed the shortcomings of the White House. Sport praises Flick’s courage. Despite the threat from Mbappé and Vinicus JR at the back, the Barça coach decided to stay true to his convictions and positioned his defensive line 50 meters from his goals. A profitable choice, which stifled Real and was trapped 12 times offside. The entire press applauds the coach who, in the space of just two months, has remade FC Barcelona into a very great team, and without making excuses despite the injuries and the youth of his squad.
The culprits of the sinking of Real
It was the evening of Barça which signed a festival as summarized A.S.. On the other hand, on the Real Madrid side, the evening was much more complex. The Iberian press has already named the two culprits of this shipwreck; Carlo Ancelotti and Kylian Mbappé. Like the start of the season, Real has no idea and Ancelotti did not make the right choices to turn things around. Bellingham’s positioning on the right has not worked and he does not seem to be making the most of Mbappé. For the captain of the Blues, the press did not mince words about him. For A.S.Mbappé signed in Madrid to prove his greatness in big matches. And for its first big meeting, KM7 disappointed. “A 36-year-old Lewandowski showed him what it is to be decisive for his team”. Tomas Roncero of the Cadena SER insulted him: “ Fuck off, man. He had 2 or 3 chances and he didn’t score. He keeps missing goals. Joselu was more efficient than him. » Marca is frustrated that, despite the huge spaces behind the Catalan defense, Mbappé failed to exploit them, being trapped eight times offside. Mundo Deportivo speaks of a cataclysmic performance, with many missed face-offs. After his poor performance, Mbappé was whistled by his own supporters. A first warning. We saw Mbappé offside in every sense of the word as explained the Team.
The Classic could be suspended
Tonight, we should be treated to a not-so-ordinary classic for the Team. Not trivial since after years of unbalanced shocks, the gap no longer seems as important as before when we compare the two teams line by line. On the side of Provencewe motivate ourselves and we believe in the feat. Ending 13 years without a victory at the Vélodrome in the championship against PSG. A meeting full of promise but classified under close surveillance. On the OM side, we fear that the implementation of recent severe sanctions from the LFP could fall on them this evening. As a reminder, in the event of homophobic chants in the stadiums, the receiving team may lose the match on the green carpet. OM appealed for appeasement among its supporters in a press release, but nothing guaranteed. Answer this evening.
