For Alonso, the most embarrassing possibility is to lose the first round of the national derby next season

I quite understand why Alonso sat rather than stood when Valverde scored a penalty - because he was too nervous. Maybe you think the Club World Cup is nothing, but do you think that millions of dollars or tens of millions of dollars are nothing? In this game, how much money did Alonso lose for Real Madrid?

The new version of the Club World Cup, perhaps the major giants were waiting and watching at the beginning, but FIFA was willing to spend money, so even if it was the first session, it had no background, but it was definitely worthy of all teams' deep cultivation. However, looking at the match between Real Madrid and Riyadh Crescent, it is obvious that Alonso's new version of Real Madrid has not been combined and the coordination is not smooth enough. Arnold, who is highly anticipated, has no substantial output. Although Real Madrid did not send the strongest lineup in this game, it is obvious that Alonso wants Real Madrid to return to the top of Europe, and there is still a long way to go.

Not to mention the far-reaching ones, just in this Club World Cup, is Real Madrid's competitiveness stronger than Paris Saint-Germain? Are you better than Bayern Manchester City? Compared with the 1:1 draw, what is even more frustrating is that Valverde concedes a penalty before the end of the game. It can be seen that Real Madrid now has no fortune. Hasn’t Alonso always been famous for his final victory and a draw in Leverkusen? When I arrived at Real Madrid, it was all gone.

In this state, Real Madrid wants to win the Club World Cup championship, which is basically a dream.

Of course, as Alonso, who has been in office less than a month, it is too harsh to expect him to win the championship in a major competition just now. It is not easy for him to straighten out Real Madrid's new lineup as soon as possible. Therefore, the Club World Cup championship is definitely not a hard indicator, and at most it will only make Real Madrid less profitable by thousands of dollars. Next season, La Liga and Champions League are the arenas where Alonso really needs to work hard and really need hardcore results.

But now the competition in La Liga and even the Champions League is extremely fierce. It is normal for Alonso to not be able to do things that Ancelotti cannot do in the 24th to 25th season. For him, the most embarrassing possibility is not that he cannot win the Club World Cup championship, or even that he cannot win the La Liga and Champions League championship next season, and that he is missing all four major players again, but that he lost the first leg of the national derby.

This starts from the 24th to 25th season. Many people say that Ancelotti's performance last season was a mess, but is it really the case? Indeed, for Real Madrid, it is difficult to talk about success without winning an important championship in a season, but we must also see how difficult it is. The defense is full of wounded people, one after another, and even can only be transferred from the B team; the club only bought one Mbappe, and the compensation for the backcourt was almost zero. In this case, Ancelotti can lead the team to the second place in La Liga, reach the finals of the Cup of del Rey, and reach the quarterfinals of the Champions League. What else can he ask for?

Therefore, although Real Madrid's total results last season did not meet the expected value, overall, it is not bad. What really made Ancelotti criticized was actually that he was killed by Barcelona for four consecutive times. This may be more unacceptable for Real Madrid than losing the championship.

Real Madrid and Barcelona have a very small chance of playing four games in a season. It has been before, but it is rare for Real Madrid to lose four consecutive games. Guardiola had five consecutive kills against Real Madrid, but it spanned three seasons. And this time the killing span seems to be a little smaller.

The most sensitive and subtle thing is the first leg of the La Liga national derby in the 25th to 26th season. If Real Madrid loses again, they will be killed five times in a row again. And Alonso is the witness and leader of this gray record. Once such embarrassment becomes a reality, Alonso's evaluation will be directly downgraded to a higher level.

It's quite terrible to think about it. Although I don’t know the specific schedule for next season’s La Liga, based on past experience, it may be half a year before the first leg of the national derby. This will be Alonso's first big test at Real Madrid.
