The goal conceded by Real Madrid defensively was bad, I was disappointed especially from the fact that the two teams I was supporting yesterday conceded goals base on defensive errors (Chelsea and Real Madrid).

Though I expected them to equalize and get more goals against Las Palmas and was hoping/expecting Mbappe to be in the scoresheet sadly I was wrong. Thankfully they got a draw though Las Palmas really still deserves credit for holding Real Madrid to a draw after all the pressure from Real Madrid.

While I might not write Real Madrid off this season, I guessed might not just be a good one for them like last season but I hope Ancelotti can get his team working well especially the front role which probably may take time for the Mbappe, Vinicius and Rodrygo build up but just hope Mbappe get a league soon, for this will make things much more easier and better.

Las Palmas vs Real Madrid in today's match in the Spanish League, the match between the two teams was drawn 1-1. Las Palmas team scored in the first 5 minutes of the game and then did not score any more goals. Real Madrid team was the first to start the game.  Avasta could not do well due to which Real Madrid team could not win today's match. Today's match is a draw due to poor performance of Real Madrid team players.

We are at the beginning, the problem is that they already seem tired before leaving, they have worked so hard and have really given their all.
In this modern football you play too many games, you don't have time to recover. I am convinced that after this not so great start things will improve.

a match that surprised all Madrid fans. Las Palmas played amazingly with so much pressure they got from Madrid. even when they scored early, it was really surprising.
Madrid at the beginning of the season really had a hard time when facing a team that last season fought very hard not to be relegated. Madrid's opening match this season against Mallorca also ended in a draw. and now with Las Palmas.
a lot of work needs to be done immediately. if not maybe this season Barca will be very comfortable to win the trophy.

There are plenty of problems within Madrid's squad right now. Every player in Madrid's squad is very talented. Madrid has the best squad in La Liga. But the problem is Madrid's attack. The bonding between Madrid's attacking players is weak. And I'd say the problem arose after Mbappe joined the squad.

Vini and Rodrygo were in Madrid's attack last season. Bellingham helped strengthen the bonding of attacking players with the midfield. But since Mbappe's arrival in the squad, Ancelotti has had to make changes to his match tactics and formation. The players are yet to adapt well to the new match strategy and formation. This is why we saw poor gameplay from Madrid in all three matches.

Mbappe is a talented player but he is a bit selfish. He is keen to score goals but not keen to assist. Its negative impact is also likely to be seen in Madrid's overall performance. Madrid wants to be stronger as a team. Ancelotti will not base his match strategy on Mbappe alone. This is why Madrid's overall performance will take some time to stabilize.

Madrid actually played by showing all their abilities, but unfortunately the Madrid players experienced a deadlock in terms of scoring goals. even the goal they were able to reply from the penalty spot, even though they should have been able to break through the home team. but there were many opportunities they had, 25 total shots they fired, 8 of which were on target and 5 big opportunities. so too with Mbappe, he tried to fire a hard shot outside the penalty box, unfortunately he was not able to break through the goal guarded by Cillessen. in fact, the Las Panas goalkeeper made 7 saves. uniquely, the pattern applied by the home team was not a defensive tactic. they used a 4-1-4-1 pattern, some of their players played quite impressively. in the Madrid camp, Diaz was unable to play his role with maximum performance which in the end Rodrygo replaced him. the entry of Arda Guller was unable to bring Madrid to full points, even Madrid almost lost if the goal created by Las Pamas was not trapped by the option. well, Don Carlo has implemented a similar system twice, but the results are not so satisfying. maybe he should try another pattern, for example a duo striker duo in the front line. thus, Mbappe can comb his playing style that is not just waiting for a pass if he is only relied on as a single striker. certainly, Ancelotti has homework to evaluate his team.

There are several reasons why Mbappe cannot be like when he was in League 1.

• He has just felt the competition in La Liga and needs to adapt.
• In Madrid, there are several professional players who make it difficult for him to score and there are more opportunities to score for Vinic and Rodrygo.
• Mbappe when he was in League 1 more often got big opportunities without having to struggle to find the ball or in other words he was more relied on as a finisher.

Of these 3 reasons, it is one of the difficulties for Mbappe to score and I or Madrid fans will not be disappointed with this result. Because if after Mbappe gets used to the playing style in La Liga, it will be easier for him to score big like in League 1. I think Ancelotti already knows this and he will not worry because he believes everything will be fine. My guess is that at least 3 or 4 more matches Mbappe will be able to be more aggressive.

Real Madrid have not had the smoothest start to the season so far, but this is not a desirable situation. The attack line they have is very good and high quality, but opposing teams like Las Palmas and Mallorca seem to know how to overcome Real Madrid in defense. Kylian Mbappe tried hard to score a goal, but his efforts were unsuccessful until the match ended. If Real Madrid does not get the penalty, then the 1-0 will last until the match is over for Las Palmas to win.

That's how football is because in fact the victory of a big team with good squad depth can't be guaranteed. Barcelona, ​​which was said to be bad, was actually able to win 9 points in 3 matches at the start of this season, even when Barcelona relied a lot on its young players in those 3 matches. Real Madrid is clearly unlucky, but in reality they have many problems that need to be resolved so as not to fall too far behind Barcelona and other teams.

To be honest, I have been disadvantaged by the two draws result  that Real Madrid got from the three matches they have played. Indeed, I personally have high hopes for Real Madrid, because they have a luxurious squad that can certainly guarantee an easy victory. Moreover, from the three matches that Real Madrid have played, in reality the opposing team that Real Madrid faced was also a weak team, so I did not hesitate to continue choosing Real Madrid. But anyway, what happened was a defeat that made me suffer a big loss because I expected too  much from Real Madrid.

With results like this, I say it is a very bad result because after all, Real Madrid only played against a mediocre team that has a very different level. Maybe,  if the opposing team faced was like Barcelona or Atletico, then maybe a result like this is normal to happen. But yes, I really disappointed with Real Madrid with the luxurious squad they have because after all,they have great dominance in every match, but the results are still bad.

It is quite surprising indeed when the most talked about club because of its luxurious squad actually has to accept their second draw in the first 3 matches, clearly this is far from what many people expected and their problem that I see is how they have a lot of difficulty in creating goals, even though they have many opportunities that can be utilized.
Indeed, the changes in the midfield are quite noticeable, usually we will see the role played by Kross when Real Madrid is in a deadlock, but now we can no longer expect that because Kross has decided to retire. Ancelotti must rack his brains so that they can be more effective in building attacks. I think they still have enough time for that, because the league is still early but of course they also have to be quick in finding solutions.

Madrid have a very promising squad composition to win La Liga and the Champions League this season, but so far we have not seen Madrid show a good performance so far as the team that is the favorite to win the championship, losing several players has forced Ancelotti to make a slight overhaul in their current line-up, but as you said it seems that at the moment Ancelotti still has not found the right composition to cope with the loss Kroos, Bellingham and Camavinga, I think for now the arrival of Mbappe  notyet  give a significant impact on Madrid game and either because he has not been able to adapt to the Spanish league game or maybe Mbappe is too used to the easy competition so far at PSG?
In my opinion, Bellingham injury is the main factor that makes it difficult for Ancelotti to create the right line-up at the moment, because if Bellingham is not injured then I think Ancelotti will have an easier time playing him as an attacking midfielder or an attacker like last season.  

The problem that Ancelotti is facing at the start of this season lies in the attacking line, Real Madrid players have struggled to score goals in two of the three matches that have been played, as a result they have to share points with their opponents. He must immediately find a solution to the problems that are currently occurring in his squad, Mbappe is in the spotlight because he has not been able to score a single goal in the three matches that have been played.

The game shown when playing at Las Palmas headquarters did not show the true character of Real Madrid, initially I predicted that Real Madrid would win easily, but they had to fight to equalize. Several wasted opportunities showed that their front line was not yet able to fully utilize the opportunities well, calmness in the final touch was not mastered which resulted in them having difficulty scoring goals.

Many bettors were disappointed with the final result of this match, Real Madrid played badly in the first half, the defense made many mistakes I can't believe Las Palmas could take the lead in the 5th minute and even Real Madrid couldn't equalize in that half, even Real Madrid's attack line did a lot of individual attractions, it was very funny, this is a team game, Real Madrid didn't show that in this match, Vini Jr showed off too much but lost the ball a lot, the only goal scored by Real Madrid in the second half was through a penalty, in my opinion Real Madrid was lucky to be able to bring 1 point. and conversely Las Palmas was unlucky to be able to bring 1 point, they should have been able to get 3 points, seeing them playing aggressively.
from the 3 matches played by Real Madrid there was no improvement at all, if the game shown like this continues, they will most likely lose if they face their rival club

hmmm 🤔 what crossed my mind was Mbappe was not comfortable with his current position, because of that Madrid game was unable to neutralize the final finish. For me so far that with the weaknesses that have not been fixed Madrid can lose more opportunities. Having drawn 2x and clearly a loss when his rivals are consistently perched at the top of the standings. Everyone knows Carlo Ancelotti is an experienced coach but the situation in the past and now is different, an era where the development of a club must be accelerated.
On the other hand many people doubt Barcelona ​​right? But on the contrary, they are the ones who managed to perform optimally in the midst of a situation and condition of the club that is on the verge of financial collapse. That did not make Blaugrana discouraged and they fought as best they could to keep looking good.

Maybe Real didn't need a change in the game, and Mbappe just can't find "his place" on the field yet. The midfield has changed the most, Kroos has retired, Camavinga is injured and Billingham also missed this match due to injury. And the combination of Vinicius and Mbappe is obviously not enough to become the most formidable attack in La Liga, I don't even remember the last time Ancelotti replaced Vinicius at the end of a match when Real needed to score, to be honest, I expected him to replace Mbappe.

Yes right. Real Madrid football team has best players and after that they could not win this match. The match was tough for both teams and  I am very impressed by the performance of UD Las Palmas because they tried their best to win this match.  They did goal from the start of match at the 5 minutes after starting the match. They could not defend after doing the goal and if if they defend well, they could win this match. Júnior got benefit of penalty and he did goal when his team needed that after that saw silence from both ends and match was ended with draw and both teams got equal points.The overall performance of Real Madrid was not bad but they have to improve.

Isn't it strange when one of the current stars is experiencing a goal drought? It's not unusual and Mbappe must be quite frustrated with what happened to him. He certainly didn't expect La Liga to be this difficult and in the previous league he always scored 1 to 2 goals so easily in each match.

In addition, other notes reveal that Mbappe has done nothing for the last 3 matches and has not even been able to create a single chance. The results of 17 shots also had no impact and this is purely because he is not able to adapt. Misfortune will cover Real Madrid if Ancelotti does not immediately find a solution, on the other hand they are also too late to be able to bring in a new midfielder because from the start they were confident with the existing squad and thought everything would go well, but in fact after Kroos left everything became uncontrollable and chaotic.

I don't think Real Madrid will be recovering very quickly. The result in the last game has proven that they could do nothing without good midfielders. Missing Bellingham and Kroos gave a detrimental impact on their performance. Their current midfielders are being so clueless in the game against a low block. This happens when your team is only relying upon a few good players in your club.

Also, Madrid is not having someone who has good passing distribution. They had Kross to did this job last season, but they don't have anyone who can do the same as what Kroos did.

That's probably why Arda has to start. No one else has the required passing against these low block teams other than him.

Three matches only won one victory and were held to two draws including against La Palmas.
A situation that must be addressed seriously by Ancelotti if you want to play the title of La Liga.
Kylan Mbappe will be in the spotlight if Real Madrid in the following matches also do not get maximum results. Kylan Mbappe has also thought about what he should do to be able to help Real Madrid because he realized that his goal was brought to the Santiago Bernabeu to be able to sharpen the Real Madrid attack line.

Real Madrid had a big chance to win today's match against Las Palmas but Real Madrid missed the chance and helped Barcelona retain their position. Such things cannot be expected to happen with a team like Real Madrid. They have been proving their weakness since the beginning of the series. they drew 1-1 with Mallorca in the first match of this series. however, despite winning the second match, they again drew 1-1 in today's match. On the other hand, Barcelona is 4 points ahead of Real Madrid after winning all three matches. these things are sad for Real Madrid.  However, there is still not much difference in points. So Real Madrid will have to play with good focus in the next upcoming matches. they will play the next match against Real Betis which is also a big chance for them to win the match easily
