He real Madrid almost everything is already played à la carte Bayern after yesterday’s defeat in Majorca. Arbeloa arrived at the event after a good streak and with the good news of his return to the starting eleven of Mbappé, but the return of the top scorer did not translate into a good result. And the Frenchman was very active in the first half, but he was forgiving in the best opportunities he had. Almost everyone saw a fresher Kylian after his knee injury, not without controversy, but the Frenchman faded in the second half like the rest of the team.
And this Tuesday Bayern awaits. Arbeloa gave more minutes in the second half to Bellinghamperhaps thinking about the first leg against the Germans at the Bernabéu, but the signs were not very good. The coach later came to his defense in the press room. “We don’t want Jude Bellingham to be at his highest level without playing games. It’s normal, he’s been out for many weeks, on Atlético’s day he played 20 minutes, today he played half an hour and the idea is for him to continue picking up the competition rhythm,” he noted.
Arbeloa: “The players have to understand that without 200% we were not going to win”
The fact is that Arbeloa must now decide if Jude is ready to seat Pitarch or Güler against Bayernassuming that Valverde and Tchouaméni are permanent.
And then there is Vinicius, who was a substitute yesterday after Ancelotti made him play the two friendly matches with Brazil. The Real Madrid coach left a message for his “friend” Carletto this past Friday. Without Mbappé, the Brazilian had supported Madrid all this time and the Madrid fans hoped that he would fix the game in Mallorca, which had gone badly wrong. But the winger got lost in some protest and his attempts to reach the baseline barely gave results. In fact, she hooked up with Maffeo again.

Vinicius came on in the 59th minute and sneaked in from the left to return Mbappé to the point of attack. They didn’t connect too much. Jude, for his part, sometimes went too low to speed up the release of the ball. Facing Bayern, the BMV will have to do much more to play together again and, above all, to put the Germans in trouble.
