Unsuccessful Hate Watch . The game started very good my Madrid and took advantage of it by scoring from a set piece and with that their rhythm started to slow and Espanyol surprisingly played well with the ball and held their ground and got a very well deserved equalizer. Second half started slower from Madrid and better from Espanyol , but with the minutes moving we can clearly see how Espanyol players started to get tired . With Mourinho taking starts off the pitch and getting starts in the pitch it was really hard for Manolo Gonzalez to match it , and even Espanyol substitutes weren’t as close as good as the starters. With all of this fatigue was main aspect that let Madrid score at the end after a mixed mistake by Dolan and the Gk . Madrid not looking too good tho , don’t let the W fool you 👀 ..
