This Sunday, several Real Madrid players were on the lawn in Europe for their first match of this international break.
As during every international break, Real Madrid and the clubs in general fear only one thing: injuries. The Madrid club has also given a lot in recent years to such an extent that we speak of the “FIFA virus” since Real Madrid almost never recovers all of its players in one piece. This evening may bring the first bad news to Ancelotti.
Indeed, David Alaba gave up his place in the 70th minute of play in Austria’s defeat once morest the French team (2-0). The Madrid defender suffered from physical problems even though he went to sit on the bench at a trot. He will undergo examinations in the next few hours to judge a possible injury or not. According to the first returns, it does not seem very serious in any case.
Hazard played with Belgium
In the opposite camp, Eduardo Camavinga did not have the opportunity to play, unlike Ferland Mendy and Aurélien Tchouaméni. The two Madrid players played the entire match and the midfielder enjoyed as with Madrid since the start of the season. In particular, he almost scored a sumptuous acrobatic return but the goalkeeper responded in such a beautiful way.

In the other matches of the evening, Belgium’s Eden Hazard and Thibaut Courtois won (2-1) once morest Wales’ Gareth Bale. The Madrid number 7 played 65 minutes while the goalkeeper played the entire game.
Finally, the inexhaustible Luka Modric played 90 minutes once morest Denmark and delivered, once once more, a great performance. Croatia won (2-1) and the Madrid maestro gave way to a huge and beautiful ovation in the last moments of the match.
