– Opinion piece by journalist Miguel Quintana
This defeat is Arbeloa’s fault.
This is what happens when you play with an unbalanced line-up, as has been the case at Real Madrid for some time.
You know you need to bring on Gonzalo, but you can’t take Mbappé off, so you take Valverde off, empty the midfield, and bring Gonzalo on as a winger.
Disaster!
