TA wrote an article that for Xavi Alonso's plan, the Madrid derby crushing defeat was a major setback, but it was more likely to be a valuable learning experience than a crisis that caused the collapse of its overall plan. Before the game, Alonso's new Real Madrid ushered in its first big test with a win in seven games, but the biggest problem exposed by the team in the game was that it failed to achieve the intensity of the game required for the derby.

Whether it is young players like Heysen and Carreras, or Bellingham who has returned from injury, the entire team has not entered the best combat state. Although Guerre made a pass and shot, he also sent a penalty kick due to lack of experience.

was scored five goals by a mortal enemy in the city, which was a huge embarrassment for everyone from coach Alonso to the club chairman. This proves that no more modern tactical ideas can be useful when the team cannot compete with their opponents on a mental and physical level. This loss will force the entire Real Madrid team to respond.

Finally, the gap in experience is also fully reflected. This is the 48th Madrid derby coached by Simeone, and it is just the first time Alonso has as the head coach.
