Gonzalo Plata, in Valladolid: from cheering to ‘invisible man’ against Athletic Bilbao

Earth: “Valladolid started with a good line and closed the match with two sticks, but due to their defensive laziness, they were kicked out after a quarter of an hour. Before the break, everything was already resolved that way. Valladolid, which had deployed well, was broken on all four sides, opened in the channel and shaken by the great white attacker who moved as if in his garden. Real Madrid benefited from a team that was completely torn apart”.

Valladolid Day: “Valladolid had no chance to score at the Santiago Bernabéu, where they came out defeated 6-0 and continued in the dangerous zone of the table. They started well, even better than Real Madrid, but succumbed to the attack of the Whites, who took advantage of this, especially in the first half, and settled the match. Defeat was a given, but Valladolid wanted to finish with good feelings for what was to come. A shot at the post and several actions by Gonzalo Plata, especially one that left Alaba inside the area, made it happen”.

Newspaper Valladolid: “Valladolid did something stupid during the visit to Real Madrid. You can lose to the current League and Champions League champions by half a dozen goals, but not like that. The players dragged themselves around the field without giving the impression that they were a team at all and they can be grateful that Ancelotti’s men did not force the machine, before the upcoming and vital obligations in the Copa del Rey and the Champions League. Interestingly, Valladolid started to command, with a shot on the post by Mesa and another by Monchu with the ball kissing the post”.

Brand: “A tough defeat due to form, swept in a reckless face-to-face encounter that cost them their biggest win in the championship. There was no hint of victory in the first ten minutes, because the one who could take the lead was Valladolid, brave to the limit. He leaves the Bernabéu seriously injured. Terrible sensations, too fragile a team. Time to suffer Soft Valladolid. Winning seven games is a scary balance. And as things unfold in the lower zone, this kind of dynamic can be a death sentence for this Valladolid”.

AS: “Valladolid, despite that ambitious first-man-on-man push to infinity and beyond, always had the feeling that he wasn’t going to get out of this. Teams from a depressed area like Valladolid do a lot to produce very little. Teams like Real Madrid score without saying a word and show that they can win games first and only then start playing them. After the break Pacheta made three changes. He put Plata on the right, Plano as a playmaker and rearmed the midfield with Aguado and Kike. He let him send the second ball to the post”.

The world of sports: “Seven minutes. That’s how long it took Karim Benzema to score a hat-trick in a match against Valladolid to get Real Madrid into the groove and win at the Bernabéu. If Valladolid looks down, it sees the abyss closer and fewer days on the calendar. Ancelotti’s team passed over brave Valladolid, who had the opportunity to take the lead and score an unusual goal, but were not successful in front of the goal.

Sport: “Benzema’s hat trick in the space of barely seven minutes and another three goals from Rodrygo, Marco Asensi and Lucas Vázquez brought down the Valladolid team that came to the Bernabéa with a lot of courage, but which crumbled like a sugar cube as soon as the home team rallied. traffic light. Valladolid was the protagonist and had two clear opportunities to take the lead. The whistles heard at the Bernabéu woke the Whites from their lethargy. Valladolid has completely broken”. (D)
