This kind of performance from Real Madrid is never desirable. Everyone knows that Real Madrid team is very strong. But expressing some discomfort for them with tomorrow's performance. They were able to defeat teams like Villarreal. This moment is very important for every team. I hope that Real Madrid will win the next matches with qualified ability.

It's only natural that Real Madrid lost, right?
Real Madrid are not playing better than Villarreal and that's the problem. Then from what I've seen, the Real Madrid defense has too much space on the Villarreal players so that has made it easy for them to concede. Real Madrid shouldn't have just lost 2-1 to Villarreal, it might have been 3-1 had the last chance been used well.

So now Barcelona needs to take advantage of Real Madrid's failure to get full points against Atletico Madrid. It's difficult, of course it's difficult but I think Barcelona will manage to make it 3 points gap from Real Madrid tomorrow.

Real Madrid got their second defeat of the season. Villereal had won last week. They had won the World Cup first in the away match of espanyol. Villereal made three to three ends and they continue to rise. It was a very good match, it was one of the best matches of la liga. The Mac was a fast paced and exciting game from start to finish. Too many goals were scored in the match, even more goals could have been scored from such a tempo. There is a Barcelona-Madrid match tomorrow, this match will be a complete breakdown.

The Villarreal - Real Madrid game was pretty interesting and delightful at the same time.

Villarreal were much better than I expected above all else. I was expecting them to make difficulties for their competitor of course but this was more than that. They found so many goal opportunities in the first half and wasted all of them. There was a classy touch by Coquelin but it hit the goal post. It would have been one of the impressive goals. Villarreal's first goal came thanks to a big space in Real Madrid defense. Benzema didn't have a good day today. He actually wasted an unbelievable goal chance but he was lucky that there was a penalty after that. He made up for it by a penalty goal. But in only a few minutes Villarreal got a penalty because of Alaba and scored the winning goal. Danjuma could have scored the 3rd goal also but he couldn't score against an empty goal.

Villarreal put in a great performance, surprising everyone with their great performance against Real Madrid. But football fans never expected such a performance from Real Madrid.

And again Real Madrid blew their chance to go top of the Spanish la liga by only playing out a draw against Villarreal today. Barcelona left the league top spot open for them by drawing yesterday and the couldn’t capitalize on it.

I think the Spanish football has really dropped down and since both Messi and Ronaldo left the league they haven’t been able to come close to that level of football.

What does the departure of Messi and Ronaldo have for Spanish football? Real Madrid after that won La Liga and also won the Champions League, but neither Messi nor Ronaldo could help their clubs do it. La Liga is a very strong championship, in many ways it is unpredictable due to the fact that there are many strong teams in the championship, like unyielding Villarreal, when even Real Madrid cannot beat them.

The Champions League is indeed a competitive league. Every team has built themselves strong here. All teams play only for victory, which is why Champions League games are so intense.

btw in this match they lost not a draw.
This is very regrettable because they should have been able to get points in this match, but on the other hand Villarreal's performance was also very good and I saw several times that Madrid players had difficulty in Villarreal's measurable passes.
Now with conditions like this of course there is a chance for Barcelona but we still have to see how they perform in tomorrow's big match.

However at least they still have matches for another half a season and anything can still happen, after all Villarreal is not a weak team. So it's natural for Real Madrid to have a difficult match in this match, but even though in this match Real Madrid didn't get any points I think it's not a problem.
Unless Real Madrid gets consecutive defeats by mediocre teams, then of course it will be a big problem.

Even though Real Madrid didn't get any points at this moment, the fact is that the points gap with Barcelona is still close so catching up is still possible.
So yes, there is no big problem with Real Madrid for their defeat by Villarreal, because after all there are still many other matches that Real Madrid will certainly be able to maximize to consistently gain points.

A serious test for real madrid today, they will face villareal in an away game, i think villareal team improved quite a lot in this break so i expect them to cause a lot of trouble for real madrid and a win today for madrid will be hard to achieve.

well, the match against Villareal will indeed be a tough test for Real Madrid. But if you look at the last 5 meetings between Real Madrid vs Villarreal. then we can see that Villareal has never been able to beat Real Madrid. so the chances in that match I think will be bigger to draw. and another opportunity is a win for Real madrid. I myself seem more interested in betting on Real Madrid's victory.

Not that I would expect Real to lose, I am sure they will win again, but that doesn't change the fact that last matchups mean much. In a fantasy world imagine that Real Madrid suddenly started to be terrible this year, after such an awesome year last year, they lost all their good players and became 7th in the league this year, and also Villareal ended up so great that they are first in the league with 10+ point difference to closest team, won all their games.

Would last 5 games matter? Of course not, because it shows Villareal became better and Real became worse. However, that is not the case this year, Real is still better, and they will win again of course, because they are better.

Right from the first half, Real Madrid's performance did show that they were not prepared to win the match against Villareal. After the equalizing goal by Karim Benzema, it was too fast to concede the second goal, and this was a defensive error. Villareal started the game with a powerful attack and a coordinated marking force, with Foyth, Raul Albiol, Dani Parejo, and Gerard Moreno's exceedingly great performances. Even with a complete Squad, Madrid's attack wasn't good enough to break Villareal's defensive bond, they only displayed little sense of dominance in the last 15 minutes. It was a sad result for Benzema.

This kind of performance from Real Madrid is never desirable. Everyone knows that Real Madrid team is very strong. But expressing some discomfort for them with tomorrow's performance.

But my focus is still on Sevilla and I think their drop which you think is a bit natural is not too natural for me. For 3 consecutive seasons they have always been in 4th place but now they are really struggling in the relegation zone and this is not normal for a club that was actually strong in the previous 3 seasons.

You are right, bro.
Sevilla performance dropped too far, it looks very unnatural. I am very surprised with the current Sevilla performance, they looked very awful. Considering their squad quality, ideally their position is in the top 10 of La Liga standings. But in reality, they are in the relegation zone now, I really can't believe it! I mean Sevilla is a team that has a lot of experience both in the local league and international competition, why they played like a new team in La Liga? Do they experience an internal conflict with club management? There should be big trouble happening on this team.

This is what happened and of course it reminds me of Galasataray last season if you follow the Turkish Super League maybe you will know what they have in common.
Sevilla are really bad in this regard and right now they are still in a stagnant state. It would be very funny if they were here until the end because this makes their electability as a club that is a subscriber to the Champions League a clown.
But even so now there is still enough time for them to change their fate even though in this case it is impossible to return to the top 4 positions but at least they have to secure their condition in the standings.

The game completely exceeded many people's expectations, but I think Real Madrid's problems were completely ignored by them. I've said before that Villarreal are by no means weak, but people's sense of optimism about Real Madrid seems to keep them from finding out why.

Real Madrid failed to take advantage many goal chance that existed, and they also failed to keep their defense tight, which made Villarreal really threaten Thibaut Courtois and his goal. Obviously I would say it's a loss for Real Madrid because now Barcelona will be looking for a win when they travel to Atletico Madrid tomorrow.

Villarreal's defense played the best, but Real Madrid's attack, despite the fact that Benzema was in the starting lineup, missed too many good chances to score goals. Yes, the game was expectedly difficult for Real Madrid, and now Barcelona is obliged to take advantage of this. This is not the first present for Bracelona from Real Madrid, they have lost points too often lately. Although Barcelona will also have a very difficult game tomorrow, they will have to play Atletico away, in this game it is also not clear whether Barcelona can win.

Villarreal has not beaten Real Madrid in the last five years. But there were six draws between them out of the last ten face-to-face meetings. There are only 10 minutes left in the match, but I think Villarreal will win today. They play this game very well and deserve to win. Although I would not be surprised if Real Madrid equalizes the score.

This was far beyond my prediction because basically I still thought Madrid would win this match but this was a big mistake. I lost quite a lot in this match but on the other hand I don't understand why Ancelotti forced a rotation for Tchouameni and Modric whether he was aware of the current conditions or indeed this was for the sake of regeneration I don't know but what is clear is that Modric's role in this match is not very suitable and did he really not think about the condition when his points were almost close to Barcelona.

I did believe Villarreal will beat Real Madrid and even when it was becoming obvious, I could also not believe until it was dawn on me . This defeat of Real Madrid has given Barcelona a brilliant edge to advance more than Real Madrid.
I still feel that Barcelona may have a problem because they are facing a strong team and not an average team. They should be careful how they'll approach the game.

The game today made me convinced enough that Real Madrid are not potential winners for the league
Villarreal has not seen such a win for long against Real Madrid
They have been a bad side with Emery

This game wasn't very good for Madrid and they made a lot of mistakes which I don't think is necessary for such a big club but when talking about champions you don't just have to focus on one game to convince yourself.
This is illogical in my opinion, because in any case, one match, even if the points are valid, does not mean that this determines everything.

There is nothing special about how Ancelotti positioned Militao at right-back because basically Militao can also occupy that position which is his second position. Of course, centre-back is his main position but he can play on the right as well. So there should be no problem for Militao, but I ask why Ancelotti didn't use Alvaro Odriozola who actually existed as the best option for the right-back position.
The match has started, and I think Real Madrid really have no reason to underestimate Villarreal in this match. The threat is very real, so I think it will be a tough game for Real Madrid.

Even though it is not his main position in playing, Eder Militao has always performed well when placed at right back, Alvaro Odriozola suffered a muscle injury so he is not included in the current Line-Up, so Ancelotti made the decision to place Eder Militao in that position and so far he has been able to carried out this role quite well, even though in the first half Villarreal was so impressive in building attacks against Real Madrid.
So far Villarreal have managed to control the game, while Real Madrid still haven't shown their best game, not many chances were created in the first half, so no goals were created for both teams.

Éder Militão has played decent enough in this match. I thought that even though he was not supposed to play on the right side, he did live quite well. Of course, the best performance for Real Madrid was from Luka Modrić. I really think that this was a case of Real Madrid underestimating their opponent. I also do not think that they actually took enough preparations for this match.

I am not saying that Villareal is a bad team. They are actually a very good team. But there was no way Real Madrid should have lost this match. Obviously, the performance from Real Madrid was not up to the mark. It’s not like Villarreal played really well in this match. I just think that Real Madrid did not play well enough.

I think Real Madrid's performance was no better than Villarreal's in the first half. They had some good chances that should have been scored, it's just that because of the selfishness of some players, these good opportunities have been in vain. Villarreal played pretty well too. They can offset Real Madrid's game throughout the match, and they have attacks that are quite troublesome for Real Madrid. I think the team with less mistakes will have more chances to win this game.

You are right, Real Madrid's performance in the first half was no better than Villarreal. In fact, I can really say that Real Madrid's defense was very overwhelmed at guarding Villarreal's attack, which almost scored in several opportunities. I expected Real Madrid to change their strategy in the second half, I really saw they were bad defensively. It is quite possible that Villarreal would have scored if Real Madrid had not played better in the second half.

As I expected, Villarreal are actually scoring goals while I'm writing. Now I hope there is an increase in Real Madrid form after being 1 goal behind Villarreal.

The match between Villarreal and Real Madrid has already ended. The score is something that I did not expect. And I think most people did not expect this type of score from Real Madrid. They lost against Villareal, by 2–1.

Now this means Barcelona has another chance to get ahead in terms of points compared to Real Madrid. Barcelona and Real Madrid are on the same point. But now Real Madrid has played one more match than Barcelona. This is going to be interesting to see how Barcelona is going to perform in the next match.

I thought Real Madrid had enough chances to get ahead in this match. They just failed to convert those chances into something meaningful.
