Actually Real Madrid was not that strong team since the starting of this season it has been one problem to the other and despite that they still manage to maintain their winnings both in the league and outside the league though I was actually expecting a lost from the any time soon but probably not at this time and definitely not from ATM and even if it does happen not with such margin but I was all wrong, never the less it's still a fresh season and I still very much believe Xabi Alonso is cooking, so even if Barcelona top the league now I still believe Real Madrid can still come back to the top.
If I say that I wasn't surprised by the scoreline, then am not saying the truth because I was surprised by how atletico madrid that are not doing well this season be thrashing real madrid five goal to two. I honestly thought that this real Madrid side are ready to compete on all fronts, but with this singular performance from them against their arch rivals, I would say that they are no where ready to compete on all fronts with the big boys, because this real Madrid team is filled with young lads and xabi Alonso is still trying to build his team, so for now, they are not ready to compete with the big boys, though they might improve to the required standard during the cause of the season, because anything can happen, but as for now, they are not ready especially in the uefa champions league.
