Real Madrid embarrasses himself in front of the derby: Alaba and Rüdiger under fire!

In another disappointing week, Real Madrid had to give up in the fight for the championship title with a bitter 1-2 defeat against Betis Sevilla. The team, which longs for Atletico on Tuesday (9 p.m.) after the victory in the Champions League derby, could not win the game for themselves, even though they took the lead by Brahim Díaz in the first half. The "royal" failed to say the lead and finally had to give up after Isco - once himself player from Real - converted the decisive penalty that was caused by Antonio Rüdiger. According to the website Sport1 , Rüdiger made an underground performance, but also severe criticism.

Significant criticism of Alaba and Rüdiger

The Spanish media did not let good hair on the top of the top Madrids, especially to Rüdiger and his partner David Alaba, who performed anything but convincing during the game. As the krone reported, critics made it clear that Rüdiger in particular caused the important penalty and was also not up to the equalizer of Betis. "Absent like Alaba", judged the "Marca" about Rüdiger, whose current form is considered inadequate.

The situation continues to worsen, since Real in league operations can only have a win from the last five games. Carlo Ancelotti's team is therefore falling back to third place in the table, while FC Barcelona and Atletico Madrid keep being off. The pressure on Rüdiger and Alaba is even greater before the decisive derby on Tuesday, if there is a threat of further failure, the championship may be even further.
