9:01am, 25 November 2025【Football】

As Real Madrid drew 2-2 with Elche, they had two consecutive draws in the league and were winless in three rounds of all competitions. Alonso's speech at the post-match press conference was really tough!

In the first half, the two teams attacked each other. Real Madrid created more opportunities, but unfortunately they failed to seize them. In the 30th minute, Mbappe's single shot was bravely blocked by Peña. In the 38th minute, a close-range shot from seat A was saved by Courtois. The two teams tied 0-0 at halftime!

In the second half, the team changed sides and fought again. In the 53rd minute, Fevas scored to break the deadlock. Elche 1-0 Real Madrid! Real Madrid then launched a massive counterattack and finally equalized the score in the 80th minute! Huizen scored with a poke! Real Madrid 1-1 Elche! Unfortunately, just 5 minutes later, Elche took the lead again! Alvaro scored with a volley based on his personal ability! Elche 2-1 Real Madrid! 2 minutes later, Mbappe made the ultimate save from the bottom line, and Bellingham followed up and shot evenly! In the end, Real Madrid 2-2 Elche!

After the game, Real Madrid head coach Alonso said: This is football. After playing well for a period of time, we got several unwanted results. We know what we want and have to keep going. We are not satisfied, we always want to win but we fail to do so. There are many games left and now it's time to think about the next one and analyze our performance today.

The team's condition has not declined, we are still competing for the championship, and the situation in each game is different. Results have the final say, we are very aware of this and will reflect on it. The spirit of the team is very good. We must respond to difficulties. This is Real Madrid. Criticism is the norm and we want to improve.

Regarding letting Vinicius as a substitute, Alonso said: We have talked, we communicate frequently, he understands, and he knows what role he can play. He has played as a substitute before, such as at Getafe. We are not satisfied today, but everyone is motivated to get back to form.

Although the game was soft, Alonso was really tough. He actually said that the team's state has not declined. From the Champions League to La Liga, Real Madrid has 2 draws and 1 loss in three games. Compared with the seven consecutive wins at the beginning of the season, the state has declined significantly, and it is not a slight decline, but a serious decline. Alonso can't recognize himself. It is not difficult to see from his words that Alonso is quite satisfied with the results during his time coaching Real Madrid. After all, it is still the No. 1 team in La Liga. However, in fact, Real Madrid has lost its competitiveness. If this continues, Real Madrid will fall into the abyss sooner or later.

Alonso has not yet realized that he has a big problem. His tactical play is not suitable for Real Madrid at all. As far as this match against Elche is concerned, Real Madrid was lucky enough to get a draw. Elche coach Sarabia was quite critical of Real Madrid's second goal. After the game, he bluntly said that it was a very obvious foul! Real Madrid can really thank the referee for getting a point.
