Yes Real Madrid didn't play well yesterday Vs Real Sociedad in their Copa Del Rey semi final game. Some players were missing form the squad, I don't know if it's because of injury or they were kept purposely by the coach for Saturday and Tuesday Champions League game Vs Atletico Madrid. Just this morning I read that Ceballos was injured and will be out for up to 2 months, another blow and bad news for Real Madrid considering their fixtures right now.
Why Real Madrid didn't play well? The won the match, right? I think there was no problem with Real Madrid performance. Yes, there were some main players missing from the lineup because of many reasons. Mbappe has a problem with his tooth, meanwhile other players may need time to take a rest. If Ancelotti rotated some players, I think it was good because Real Madrid has many important players in the near future. As long as Real Madrid won the match, I think Real Madrid already did their best. They can beat Real Sociedad with bigger scores in the next Leg.
Yes, Real Madrid didn't play well and their performance in that game was below average, I said so because I watched the game from start to finish and I know when Real Madrid plays well. In that very game they didn't considering the fact that they were up against a team that's not up to their standards. Most of us are satisfied with the win but that doesn't mean they performed well in the game. Real Sociedad played better. Yeah, I know the main aim is to win and of which is the most important but performance wise, no.
