Real Madrid lost 0-4, and the performance of two defenders has caused controversy

In the FIFA Club World Cup semi-finals held in the early morning of July 10, Real Madrid lost 0-4 to Paris Saint-Germain. During the game, Real Madrid's defense line collapsed completely, especially the performance of the two central defenders Asensio and Rudiger was fiercely criticized by fans. The first half collapsed, and the two of them were targeted at the target of public criticism. In less than 24 minutes, Real Madrid conceded three goals, and the first three of the conceded were directly related to the serious mistakes of Asensio and Rudiger. The two of them made frequent mistakes in the defense, their position and footwork, causing Paris to easily tear the defense line. After the game, a large number of Real Madrid fans expressed their anger and disappointment on social media:

"Rudiger and Asensio messed up the game in less than 10 minutes."

"If possible, I want to sell them both now, not a joke."

"These two are the worst central defenders in history, and their performance directly led to a terrible season."

"Stop buying forwards! The club should spend money on upgrading the defense."

The lack of soldiers in the major general exacerbated the defense line issue

In addition, due to new players Arnold and Heysen missing this game due to injuries and suspension, Real Madrid lacked rotation and stability on the defense line, which further amplified the team's problems.

fans generally believe that the two new players' outstanding performance in the preseason brought hope, but the situation where the defense is no longer available is even more prominent.

According to reports, after the end of this Club World Cup, Real Madrid will accelerate the signing of left-back Alvaro Carreras from Benfica to enhance the depth of the wing defense.

This disastrous defeat not only allowed Real Madrid to be eliminated early, but also once again ignited fans' urgent expectations for defense reform. Many fans have called on senior executives to give priority to introducing top central defenders this summer and eliminate existing defensive configurations with unstable performance as soon as possible.
