Real Madrid players have been tired in Cadiz for a long time. Cádiz’s defense was broken only in the 71st minute, when Nacho scored. In the end, the Royals won 2-0.
Real Madrid’s chances of winning the Spanish championship are slim. The Royals must focus on defending second place, champions Atlético chasing throughout. Cadiz, on the other hand, is fighting for survival.
The visitors had the upper hand from the start. However, the royals on Saturday night lacked efficacy. And in the fifth minute, Karim Benzema hit, after which the ball bounced off the opponent and went to a corner kick next to the post.
The Cádiz players were able to respond with a royal salvo seven minutes later. Finding himself in the penalty area, Alfonso Espino shot with his left foot and the ball stopped at the post.
In the 16th minute, Marco Asensio appeared, whose shot was saved by David Gil. Cadizou’s goalkeeper was his team’s hero. In the 18th minute, the goalkeeper saved Benzema’s shot. On the 25th, Rodrigo attempted it and the bouncer almost re-enforced himself. Gill was alert and swept the ball into the corner. Ten minutes later, Benzema hit the crossbar from five metres. In the forty generation Rodrigo stopped again.
