In the sixth minute, Betis midfielder Fabian Ruiz was successful in a confrontation with Danilo, heading back to the penalty spot and playing the ball to Cejudo outside the box. Seyudo volleyed in and hit a very impressive world wave.

Navas is beyond the reach of the whip.

The soccer ball is straight into the corner.

1：0。

Betis took the lead at home.

This is the first time since Zidane took charge that he has fallen behind in a game.

The opening goal injected another shot in the arm for Betis, who were already in full swing, and the lead in the score led to an improvement in their game form and defensive toughness.

Defensively, Betis showed a very tough game, with generally big movements, and the ball that can be tackled with its feet will not be let go easily.

Real Madrid did not have much difficulty in the previous two games, and Betis' gambling defense made Real Madrid's players a little uncomfortable in this game.

On the offensive end, whether it is James or Danilo, Rowe and Benzema are forced to complete the work of three by two, coupled with Betis' tough defense, which makes Real Madrid's offensive organization in this game fragmented.

Chu Ge sat on the bench and watched the game carefully.

The accumulation of football game experience, the ability to read the game, sometimes do not need to play. Off the field, carefully analyze the changes in the situation, and then go on the field to confirm it, which is also a learning process.

Chu Ge's main observation is on the right side where James and Danilo are located.

It's also where he might appear.

Danilo's performance in this game was a bit of a pit.

He's got a good offensive input, and he can go up almost every time the team attacks, but he has two problems when he rushes up.

The first is that his crosses are unreliable.

Because the Betis defenders pay great attention to the protection of the middle of the penalty area, coupled with the fact that Danilo's crosses are basically on the line, his cross is very inefficient.

I hadn't seen him deliver a reliable cross in the first half.

Of course, Marcelo's cross was also unreliable in this game, which somewhat covered up Danilo's cross flaws.

But Marcelo can come back after the assist, and Danilo is basically undefended after the assist, which is a bit of a big problem.

That's the second problem with Danilo's game.

Of course, Danilo isn't entirely to blame for this.

When Marcelo stepped forward to assist, Isco and Kroos would consciously approach him and protect him from behind.

When Danilo assists, except for Modric, who will pay more attention to the defensive position, James basically runs into the penalty area and uses himself as a forward or striker. And once Danilo conceded the goal, James would not have accelerated the recovery like Isco, so the team's defensive system would be leaky.

Almost all of Betis' threatening attacks in this game came from their left flank, which was Danilo's wing.

Under the impact of Betis players, Danilo looked a little stumbling and embarrassed. Even with the full-backs on his side, Varane is constantly fighting fires and is very busy.

There was a lot of pressure on the right flank, which meant that Modric had to spend most of his energy on the return.

His position too far back, combined with Kroos' habit of playing in a central midfield position, has left Real Madrid's midfield almost disjointed.

Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo, two strikers, rarely get the ball in the front court.

In order to improve the situation, Zidane asked both Ronaldo and Benzema to increase the intensity of the retreat.

The advantage of this is that the forward line and the midfield increase the connection, but the disadvantage is that the retreat of the two forwards, coupled with the adduction of Isco and Hames, leads to the inability to open the space of the field, which in a sense is more conducive to Betis to complete the defense in a smaller space.

Some things are really clear to the bystanders.

When Chu Ge jumped out of this game and looked at the game from a third-party perspective, the situation of the game that he could analyze was very different from the situation when he was playing on the field.

Chu Ge could see that James did not play very well in this game.

James' characteristics are very different from Bale's.

He couldn't provide Bale's impact on the right flank, speed and explosiveness were not Hames' strengths, and when Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema were forced to retreat, Hames couldn't help the team open up the game, which was not conducive to the team's attack and kept him trapped in the back.

Needless to say, defense.

James is a player who doesn't like to get involved defensively.

Each player has their own style of play and the characteristics of the game, James is used to playing in the middle and needs his team-mates to open up space for him, and his recent form has really not been good. In other words, since Benitez took office, the subsequent style of play has been somewhat outside of Real Madrid as a whole.

Chu Ge didn't know whose problem it was, but he knew that this was his chance.

The first half was over quickly.

The score is still 0:1.

Real Madrid is behind.

At half-time, Zinedine Zidane encouraged James and hoped he could do better.

After the resumption of the game, Real Madrid made no substitutions.

However, Zidane has fine-tuned his tactics.

He asked Marcelo to increase the assist, while allowing Benzema to drop back moderately and Ronaldo to press forward to keep the pressure on Betis.

This kind of adjustment will help the game to a certain extent.

Compared to the first half, Real Madrid's offensive has changed slightly.

Cristiano Ronaldo even had a shot from a defender in the box.

However, it was a pity that his shot was not on target, and with a push of his left foot, the football was kicked off the line.

The score is still behind.

Betis continued their ferocious defense in the first half, with a score of 1:0, giving them plenty of money to give up the attack and concentrate on defending and counterattacking.

The Real Madrid game is still difficult.

In the 60th minute, Zidane finally made his first adjustment.

He replaced Danilo with Carvajal.

Carvajal's arrival helped the team stabilize the right side of the defense, but in attack, he struggled to provide enough support like Marcelo alone.

On the offensive end, Real Madrid still can't open the situation.

The score is down, the time is dwindling, and the attacking threat is not very threatening, which is certainly what Real Madrid does not want to see.

If they lose this game, there is a good chance that the gap between them and Barcelona and Atletico Madrid will widen further. Moreover, the team's previous two consecutive wins will also suffer a lot of setbacks.

This will not only hurt the morale of the team, but also undermine the confidence of the players and fans in the manager Zinedine Zidane.

A defeat in one game will certainly not affect Zidane's position.

However, winning is the only way to solve the problem, while losing is a hidden danger.

Zinedine Zidane is in charge and he needs to win game after game to establish his authority and boost the team's confidence.

Chu Ge looked at Zidane.

He felt he could help change the situation at hand.
