Fury Against Lamine: Real Madrid Celebrate Clásico Win Following Heated Exchange

“Whenever I win they are unable to say anything,” the young star once stated, however this time he didn’t win and opponents were coming for him. Comments were made he was overly vocal; they replied that, indeed, they would meet him outside; the message was talk is cheap. And that was only the players: there was more from commentators in media platforms, men who always have opinions.

Just before the clásico, the teenager who says he abandoned nervousness back in Mataró suggested that the Madrid side rob and moan, according to reports. He also provided a recollection that on his previous visit he stepped onto the Santiago Bernabéu – a kid with blaugrana braces, a glint in his eye and a right foot they didn’t know he possessed – he beat them 4-0. But that was then and the present differed. Moreover, more mature currently, precisely twelve months later, his side fell short. It was clear, as opponents made sure.

Bellingham scores derby winner as the Madrid club open a gap of Barcelona

As the final whistle sounded on a wild, heated 262nd clásico that was somewhat like old times, Lamine Yamal approached towards Dani Carvajal, offering a handshake. Rather than taking it, Carvajal made the classic jibber-jabber gesture. It had been challenging following with everything that happened in the 105 minutes that preceded it, a match of 38 shots, three goals recorded and additional efforts ruled out; at that moment it became too much.

All at once appeared players everywhere, running in and out of view and piling in, police pulling individuals apart. Amidst the melee, Thibaut Courtois was accepting the offer to resume the dispute in the dressing room area. The Brazilian forward was being held back, him telling someone else they are too vocal. Barcelona’s winger was running to stop his compatriot, the defender there too. “The scene resembled when we youth,” the midfielder commented.

Shift in Momentum

In April, Tchouaméni posted: “They celebrate our defeats as if we will never win again. We’ll be back.” Madrid were defeated in the derby Copa del Rey final 3-2 in extra time, a collective breakdown following the end, ice cubes being thrown. A fortnight later, they suffered another loss. Over four encounters, the team had lost four times, league, Copa del Rey and Super Cup won by their rivals. Their defense allowed four, five, three and 4. However there is always tomorrow and it turned out Tchouaméni proved correct.

Only once have the Catalan side ever won 5 clásicos consecutively, under Guardiola historic run concluding with the famous 5-0 against Mourinho’s team, and it was not repeated. This past weekend, Real Madrid brought to a close the coach’s unbeaten start in charge, defeating their arch-rivals 2-1 to move a significant margin clear in first place in La Liga.

Significance

The Madrid squad had needed this. Their post-match joy reflected this, team members dancing in circles. So did the crowd’s roar, the Bernabéu louder and more edgy than for such matches for years: “incredible,” Jude Bellingham called it. The coach echoed this. When questioned if the win represented a relief, if existed a psychosis around big games, a fixation, Xabi Alonso shot back: “That’s you lot’s thing.” Yet he did admit that this was “not just a win, but where we come from and what it means to us; the players required that feeling of winning a big game.”

Last season Madrid had not won in such matches. Fourteen times they lost: French side, Milan, English team, Bilbao, city rivals, Betis, city foes, eastern side and London club all beat them. They did not achieve one victory against a truly big side. The previous manager departed and succeeded by Alonso but it continued. The team won several victories in the global tournament, signs of tactical organization developing, a game plan, but then came Paris Saint Germain.

Current Campaign

That belongs to last season, Alonso stated. Yet the next season, under his guidance term, began with a winning streak consecutively before city rivals visited and put 5 against them. It was all well and good beating Oviedo, Mallorca and Osasuna but what about the big teams? Now at last they had beaten one of them as well. And not only that Madrid triumphed, it was the way they won.

The opposition had players out: backup keeper, Gavi, Dani Olmo, Robert Lewandowski and Andreas Christensen were all missing. So too the winger, an important player might now be appreciated by his absence. Others weren’t fully fit, Jules Koundé and Lamine Yamal among them. On the bench they had five players who hadn’t started in La Liga, others who featured just one time; teenagers, four 18-year-olds and a couple who are 19. And defender, Uruguayan star, who finished the match in attack again. Even head coach was missing, Flick banned and located in a radio cabin. His assistant, his assistant, has been in the dugout on three occasions: he has lost all of them.

Game Breakdown

Much is made of Barcelona’s vulnerable high line, yet their offense struggled well on Sunday. Of all the things directed at the young player on Sunday, perhaps the most telling came from the Brazilian mid-match, taunting the teenager by telling him: “Your play is backwards passes.” Regarding that backline, leakier compared to past with Iñigo Martínez departing, the pressure on passers decreasing and the timing off, Levante created multiple opportunities versus Barcelona, another team 5, Sevilla 5, Girona three. Previously they caught the French forward offside eight times in an open clásico; however, lost amid losses, was that in their most recent match he got a hat-trick, Real Madrid consistently likely to get opportunities now.

Key Moments

With this approach, especially. This was a beginning as well as a significant result. “Going forward we will require a lot of what we did today,” the manager commented. They put the ball in the net five times – three efforts disallowed for offside – missed {a penalty|a spot-kick
