As is the case in most games he plays, Vinicius is being closely marked by the opposite full-back. Real Madrid have a last roll of the dice, which is to bring on Alvaro Rodriguez. As Real Madrid win a corner, Vinicius clashes with Clausio Bravo in order to get the ball back.

Then, Real Madrid host Liverpool in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, March 15. Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti on the performance: "It was a difficult game, above all because we could have been more efficient in attack, we had chances, we could have done better with them. Sometimes we didn't choose the best solution, [Eder] Militao played a fantastic game in defence with Rudiger, but we lacked that, choosing the best solution, dribbling when you shouldn't, trying a one-two, passing instead of shooting. That's the reality, in these games we've only scored from a set piece, it's obvious what's lacking, we have to be more effective. The best of Madrid's attack was Rodrygo, enjoying the rare opportunity to play in his favoured role -- inside, behind a centre-forward, with freedom to roam, and with Fede Valverde covering the right-hand side. We have the quality, we have to do better, more efficient, more clinical. It's a role that gets the best out of his intelligent movement, close control and ability to take players on. Vinicius Junior looked dangerous at times, but distracted at others, getting caught up in disputes with Betis players and the referee, while late substitute Alvaro barely had any time to make an impact. As Madrid chased a winner, however, the limitations of their squad were on display. Yes, he was a little unlucky that his free kick brushed Rudiger's arm on its way into the net, but otherwise, this was a disappointingly quiet night for the 35-year-old. They were frustrated by some poor finishing, and a solid display by veteran Claudio Bravo in the Betis goal. Real Betis are a good team and the Estadio Benito Villamarin is an intimidating arena, but Madrid were the better side, dominating possession, creating more chances and ending the game with an xG, or expected goals, of 1.21 to Betis' 0.41.

Camavinga gets high up the pitch from left back and pulls a low cross back to Vinicius, who has lots of space in the box but leans back, and sends his shot miles over.

The 27-year-old also reflected on the intensity with which football is played in Spain, especially in games involving the big matches: “Beating Atlético in my first derby was really great and I really enjoyed El Clasico, I’ve already played in two already and managed to score once.

Madrid, meanwhile, had their moments but never found a crucial goal, and now face a nine-point deficit to leaders Barca in La Liga with 14 games to play.

Betis stayed in it, though, and looked the more likely side to score for long periods.

Ancelotti pointed out the need for new signings during that transfer window after Real won La Liga and the [Champions League](https://theathletic.com/football/champions-league/), but the board disagreed. That was a header from [youth player Alvaro Rodriguez,](https://theathletic.com/4233284/2023/02/21/real-madrid-alvaro-rodriguez/) which rescued a [1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid.](https://theathletic.com/4252472/2023/02/26/real-madrid-atletico-de-madrid-la-liga/) They were then defeated [ 1-0 at home to Barca](https://theathletic.com/4271231/2023/03/03/real-madrid-barcelona-clasico-ugly/) in the [Copa del Rey](https://theathletic.com/copa-del-rey/) semi-final first leg. The Brazil winger was furious with the officials and had to be pulled away by [Dani Ceballos](https://theathletic.com/football/player/dani-ceballos-GD8WHXteo7Ll3u2q/) despite the threat of a red card. When Rodriguez was finally sent on, Madrid did not take advantage of his height and stopped crossing into the box. Ancelotti did bring on Rodriguez — but only with three minutes left of normal time when the Uruguayan striker had been warming up since the 66th minute. “There is a long way to go and a lot of things are going to happen,” one voice high up in the Madrid dressing room said. That figure has dropped to 22 at the same stage of this campaign.

They have managed five wins since the tournament, with three draws and two defeats. “In a game like this, we must score a goal.” Ceballos urged his team-mate to calm down, but he was embroiled in an argument with Betis goalkeeper “This upsets (us) a lot.”

Our team carved out chances and went in search of a goal until the end, but couldnt get the better of Betis in an entertaining match.

Carvajal crossed into the box in the 75th minute and Ceballos' first-time shot grazed the post. Madrid's quick counter ended with a cross from Valverde in the 61st minute and a dangerous shot from Rodrygo inside the area that went high. on the left flank, he pulled a pass back for Benzema, who shot from inside the area with his left foot only to be denied by Bravo's fists. Betis had the first opportunity with a long-range shot from Ruibal in the 46th minute, which took a deflection but didn't catch Courtois out. An end-to-end game and it was Real Madrid who had the next dangerous chance. The game kicked off at a furious pace and both teams were clearly set up to attack.

Real Madrid's hopes of retaining their La Liga were dealt a massive blow as they were held to a goalless draw away from home by Real Betis.

- Starting price: $4.99/mo. - Price: $14.99/mo. - Starting price: $33/mo. Real, meanwhile, will look to regroup next week against Espanyol, knowing any further slip-up will kill their chances of retaining the La Liga title. Federico Valverde went close to breaking the deadlock in the 32nd minute with an ambitious 25-yard half-volley, but the Uruguayan’s strike sailed just over the crossbar. Replays suggested that the ball had brushed off Antonio Rudiger’s arm on its way in.

Real Madrid have dropped points for the second week in a row after failing to beat Claudio Bravo in the Real Betis goal on Sunday night.

“The team did enough to get something more out of here, we have lacked a bit of success in the last stretch, the last pass to have clearer scoring chances and we are not happy. Vazquez was the first tom come off after 59 minutes, being replaced by Dani Carvajal. Manager Carlo Ancelotti made changes to his side, starting Rodrygo Goes, Aurelien Tchouameni and Lucas Vazquez, but it did not manage to make the difference.

The old controversy returns to Real Madrid: where is the striker who scores goals? It's a recurring theme and it always comes up when the team is going ...

If Mourinho touched glory with Porto and Inter Milan with a similar plan to Xavi's, at least the Portuguese was not hiding it. It was the 12th minute and that chance gave Los Blancos the wings to keep attacking. Defending a goal is viable because the team does it well, although Araújo was sent off against Valencia for a clear foul on Hugo Duro when he was facing Ter Stegen's goal. It was strange to see Ávaro Rodríguez come on in the 87th to make it 0-1. It's not easy to accept being the Frenchman's substitute and even more so when the team is still reigning in Europe. It's a recurring theme and it always comes up when the team is going through a drought like this one, one goal in three games.
