Real Madrid’s struggles in La Liga continue. After a narrow 0-1 defeat to Getafe in Matchday 26, the president of the "Blues" Ángel Torres couldn’t hold back his emotions and delivered a sharp, biting assessment of the "Royal Club," highlighting their main vulnerability.
Details: According to Torres, the current Los Blancos squad is critically dependent on their main superstar. Whenever Kylian Mbappé is out of the game or fails to capitalize on his chances, Madrid’s attack turns into easy prey for the defenses of mid-table clubs.
"Real Madrid without Kylian Mbappé looks extremely weak in the final third. They are catastrophically lacking sharpness in front of goal," Ángel Torres declared after the final whistle.
It’s worth noting that after this defeat, Real trails league leaders Barcelona by 4 points. The next match for Real is scheduled for Friday, March 6 at 21:00 CET, with Celta Vigo as their opponents.
Reminder: Real’s winger Rodrygo has suffered a cruciate ligament tear.
