DBasia.news – Real Madrid managed to reap positive results when playing the 23rd jornada of the Spanish League 2019-2020 season. Facing Osasuna, Los Blancos squad – Madrid’s nicknames – managed to end the match with a 4-1 victory over his opponent.
Real Madrid was unable to play Eden Hazard because of an injury. Meanwhile, Gareth Bale is back in the squad.
El Real coach, Zinedine Zidane, hopes his team will forget the defeat of Real Sociedad in the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey. Zidane has analyzed the defeat to be a lesson.
“We analyzed the match, but the good thing is to compete three days ago. We will not throw away what has been done so far for one match,” explained Zidane as reported by Marca.
“We have to fight until the end, and it all starts with me. Nothing will change. We have to fight to the end,” the coach said.
“We are unhappy with what happened. We played 21 games without losing. We want to do it again,” explained Zidane.
Seeing the match against Osasuna at El Sadar on Sunday night, Zidane realized it would be challenging for his team. “We know what will be faced up front. That is a difficult opponent, like their stadium,” Zidane said.
Zinedine Zidane’s view of the difficulty of winning at El Sadar is not excessive. According to statistics, Osasuna have only lost twice in eight home games in LaLiga against clubs from the city of Madrid. Los Rojillos won five wins and one draw.
The two defeats occurred against Atletico Madrid in 2016 (0-3) and Real Madrid one year ago (1-3).
Real Madrid needs a victory to keep their
distance from their nearest competitor, Barcelona. Judging by the standings,
currently the two teams are three points adrift.
