It is really sad that a strong team like Real Madrid drew the match against Al Hilal, even though they are the strongest team in La Liga, they did not win. If I were less, maybe Real Madrid could easily beat Al Hilal in this match but it was very difficult and the whole match was very interesting. I am watching this match and in the first half both teams scored one goal each and there was a draw. Although many imagined that Real Madrid would come back in the second half of this match but they failed to come back instead Al Hilal team attacked and defended strongly. Anyway these two teams played well from start to finish and both teams had almost equal ball possession, moreover the Group H point table is equal in points for both teams.

It's only me, but Real Madrid's gameplay is not getting better. It seems they're trying to rebuild the galactico style, but not going like what they expected. I know this is too early to judge them, but they obviously lack of mentality and have technical limitation. It's very hard to find the players that have it all like Kroos or CR7.
Xabi has a lot of jobs to be done especially in his team's build up and pressing. They rarely pressed al hilal, and often played passively. That is something where i really missed it since CR7's era. I hope they will play more aggressive, and doing press often to their opponent.
