Real Madrid just conceded their first defeat in the league after maintaining 5 matches unbeaten, I feel so sorry for the Madrid fans that viewed the match with hopes of winning the game because everyone taught Atletico Madrid were not in a very good form to face Realmadrid and they would easily beat them but the difference became the case and Madrid were only able to score a consolation goal.
The first 5 matches was unbeaten because Real Madrid didn't play against tough opponents. But when they played against a tough opponent like Atletico Madrid, they suddenly got a defeat. That's because Real Madrid squad is only ready to handle small teams, they are not ready to compete with top teams. Atletico performance may be not stable, but they have strong players and they played at home in this match. So, Atletico Madrid is very eager to win against Real Madrid. Since Real Madrid is no longer having strong attackers and defenders, Atletico can defeat them with 3 goals. It is actually a shame for Real Madrid.
If you check the Stats you'll see that Realmadrid's were very dominant in the match and had better chances of winning the game they had about 20 shots with 5 on target and played about 11 corner more than that of Atletico Madrid, they didn't have a very finisher and Jude Bellingham was unlucky to rescue them today, Realmadrid needs to start looking for another striker against the upcoming winter windows cause they can't be depending only on Jude Bellingham always, and Joselu is not who they can fully rely on.
Real Madrid could make 20 shot attempts, but it couldn't be goals because Real Madrid has no top striker as a machine goal. Rodrygo played underperformance, while Bellingham may be unlucky at this match. Unfortunately, Real Madrid has no striker (CF) that can be a mainstay player for scoring goals. So, when Rodrygo and Bellingham can't play optimally, it is easy for Atletico to stop Real Madrid players for scoring goals.
