Carvajal scored his first La Liga goal since 2014 - he’s gone 102 league matches before scoring tonight. He is also the first Real Madrid fullback to open the goal record in La Liga for the club since Roberto Carlos in 1996. 🔥

Real Madrid should play Vinicius. we've all seen what he can do. Mbappe didn't get this recognised by sitting on a bench. they should've left him at Flamengo If their plan was to sit him down on a bench. all in all I won't say Madrid was poor but there clearly is a problem with goals. hope it will be rectified sooner than later so we won't have a poor season like last time.

7 out of 11 starter were Spanish and Modric wasn't a starter. Things looking suspicious. 🧐🧐🧐

Getafe dominated the game, only in number of fouls and yellow cards Getafe 7-1 Real Madrid Getafe 26-12 Real Madrid Getafe is also leading the Laliga table for more number of fouls and yellow cards. If they continue this good form, no other team can beat Getafe in theses stats

I just don't believe in our new coach That's my fear rite now..Not signing perfect #9 may put us into trouble this season.. Benzema has another quality by making plays this time around but he isn't a dependable #9 for the past 4season till now. with the absent of King CR7 i think we need Icardi or H.Kane to at least score 30goals for us but getting CR7 replacement now it's impossible ..

Some Ronaldo fans who know nothing about football be talking as if Ronaldo was the play maker and the goal scorer. The same way the likes of Marcelo, Benzema, Bale, Modric, Kross, Asensio and Isco gave Ronaldo passes to score, they can still give it to anyone else. Its only Ronaldo that left not the engine room and pillars of Madrid
