US EditionXabi Alonso Comes Clean About What Real Madrid Is Lacking in Order to Win Games
Xabi Alonso urged improved accuracy after Real Madrid’s third consecutive LaLiga draw, highlighting missed chances and a VAR-disallowed goal as key factors in the 1-1 result.
- On Sunday, Real Madrid were held 1-1 at Girona in LaLiga, leaving them with their third consecutive draw, and Alonso admitted frustration at Montilivi.
- At Montilivi, Girona struck first through Azzedine Ounahi's 45th-minute effort, while a VAR review disallowed an earlier Kylian Mbappé goal before he equalised from the penalty spot.
- After the final whistle, Alonso praised the reaction but flagged accuracy issues, saying `In the second half we improved, we had more chances` and `We needed to play more minutes of good football, attacking football and being dominant`.
- The result leaves Madrid a point behind Barcelona in the title race, and Alonso said the Wednesday trip to Bilbao offers an immediate chance to win away and correct course.
- Season context places Sunday's result between an excellent start and emerging doubts as Madrid won 10 of their first 11 league games but recent draws and a Champions League defeat at Liverpool sparked questions about the Alonso project.
