Nothing outstanding? nobody gets past him. that's outstanding. he just recovered the ball 3 times in 15 minutes in opponents half.

Damn Carvajal should have passed that to Benz.

Benzema is incredible

sent off

Red card and Varane off. I couldn't even tell that there was any contact.

THE SHIP IS STILL STEADY

a suspension, now ramos will have to rush himself back

Marcelo is disgusting I swear

Had to be Marcelo

Marcelo not aligned, costing yet again another goal, what's new? I'm done with him

Bring Valverde or Ceballos for Kroos you idiot

Oh we are out of subs my bad

marcelo being as good as carlos has faded out really quick, i see

The team is gonna win its cool mamad

Would've preferred Valverde/Ceballos for Casemiro.

we are not having this argument. We are saying Marcelo as he is now, is not good enough anymore for Madrid, he is too flawed.

This is different than comparing his legacy vs Carlos in Madrid.

What are you even saying, who said Marcelo isn't a club legend?

some of these cards are unnecessary tbh

Lucas and Carvajal being as brainless as usual.

STEADY THE SHIP

Marcelo has been doing this for years but he gets so much credit for offense that it glossed over, he just doesn't give a shit about defense cause, he isn't being singled out after every game, he needs to stop with the bs.

Varane had to ruin a good match.

Also Marcelo you are probably one of the best ever to play that position but you have declined massively. Thanks for the service.

Benzema, Modric and Lucas were absolutely amazing throughout the game.

Anyway good game another 3 pts just keep up this fighting spirit, carvajal blowing that cut back for Benz with another stupid shot but whatever no excuses.

good game, scoring early helped a lot, ruined espanyol's plans, they had no choice but to play an open game , there where some defensive aspects i didn't like but it was all good. reguilon is playing well , working hard especially on defense. great game from benzema, this game and his game away at vigo have been great games from him, could have had 4 today. modric did his thing, lucas was vibrant. good end to the month. next month will be tough.

steady the ship till season's end and then hopefully we can build all over again, in the summer transfer window. good for bale to get a goal on his comeback before his next sabbatical

Wonderful game until the ref went braindead red carding Varane for a clash of legs

Bale offers absolutely nothing to our team apart from goals every once in a while. He spends 90% of the time trying to run behind the defence waiting for a long ball, and on 89% of the occasions he won't get the pass. When will he learn

Marcelo REALLY is done, how lazy can one be to play someone onside despite being able to see the entire line. And when you want defensive protection Marcelo is the LAST person you sub on.

Casemiro had possibly the worst game in a RM shirt, uggh

Hope Ramos makes it for our next game

This is what I mean. You play like this, no one will criticize you.

Score goals, that's your main job.

Thanks for an amazing performance. I Hope you'll catch up to those who are already ahead of you and end the season with a respectable goal tally.

And please don't go back to being mediocre again. For once in your life keep playing like a true CF.

You know, for a 2 goal cushion, I was actually quite nervous coming down to the end. Not sure how that was possible but it happened.

Lovely game, fine performance from Big Ben. Probably his best so far this season (or for 2 years but who's checking). Hala's cousin Lucas had a blinder of a match, can't call him poo today. Meanwhile, Marcelo comes on and plays a man onside which I appreciate, that goal was delightful.

What else, what else, oh, Modric is getting his groove back. Slowly. Surely.
