"Team News" criticized Real Madrid s defense: Asensio and Rudiger only scored 2 points

July 10 In the Real Madrid Club World Cup journey, the starting central defender's performance as a disaster, asensio and Rudiger performed like a disaster. After the game, The Team News showed no mercy and gave the two a super low score of 2 points.

Let's talk about Asensio first. In the game against Pachuca, just 6 minutes into the game, he made an incredible pass mistake in the backcourt and directly handed over the ball to his opponent, causing the opponent to score the first record, which put Real Madrid in a passive position early. Since then, Asensio seems to be affected by this mistake, and he has not been able to recover his form throughout the game. He frequently loses position during defense and has many loopholes in handling the ball. In the 64th minute, the coach had no choice but to replace him with Edel Militon, trying to reverse the situation on the court.

Rudiger performed equally poorly. In the 9th minute of the game, his pass mistake in the backcourt was "unique", directly assisting his opponent to score the second goal. As an experienced player, he should have been the defensive defensive player, but he was not in a good position during the game and his reaction was always half a beat slow. When his opponent attacked, he often was unable to make effective defensive actions in time and had no inspiration to handle the ball. He easily broke through the defense line by his opponent many times, posing a great threat to Real Madrid goal.

From the match against Pachuca to the match against Paris Saint-Germain, Asensio and Rudiger's sluggish performances throughout the entire tournament, becoming a time bomb on Real Madrid's defense line, seriously affecting the team's performance. Nowadays, Real Madrid urgently needs to solve the problem of defense, and Asensio and Rudiger also need to adjust their state as soon as possible. Otherwise, not only will the team's subsequent matches be worrying, but their own position in the team may also be in danger.
