But such a defeat certainly does not justify Real, they prepared well for the Club World Cup, tried to close the problematic positions, but yesterday's match showed that everything remained the same and they still concede a lot. Maybe if Militao and Carvajal could have played from the very beginning of the match, everything would have been different, but there is no certainty about this either, because they have been injured for too long and it will take him some time to fully return to the game. It is obvious that PSG is definitely stronger than them now, and if they also beat Chelsea, it will not surprise anyone.
If you pay attention to Real Madrid's goal-conceding process the cause is inextricably linked to their defense which looked so weak that PSG players easily broke through Thibaut Courtois's goal. Besides the absence of Militao and Carvajal, Real Madrid was also without Dean Huijsen, making the defense they tried to build ineffective. Real Madrid also didn't have many chances to break through PSG's goal because their defense was superior in controlling the movement of Real Madrid's forwards, and Xabi Alonso's strategy almost certainly didn't work well in that match.
PSG are favorites to win the title because given their current form Chelsea are simply no match. Even though Chelsea tried harder to beat PSG, but if you look at it from any point of view PSG has a much bigger chance than Chelsea because Luis Enrique's team looks much more convincing.
Yes, obviously PSG are the favourites to win, but clearly Real Madrid need to realise this defeat and be able to rise again and become a much stronger team and return to winning ways. As for Chelsea, if they don't play a high-level match, I see it as difficult to beat a team that has won everything and is aiming to win this trophy too, and they will.
