Placed in Group B of the UEFA Champions League against opponents who are not too strong, both Real Madrid and Inter Milan are determined to win the opening day and are ready for the race to the top of the table.
* The Real Madrid-Shakhtar Donestk match will take place at 11:55 pm on October 21 and Inter Milan-Borussia Monchengladbach will take place at 2:00 pm on October 22.
Inter Milan and Real Madrid are top-ranked in Group B of the UEFA Champions League, but the other two opponents are not easy. Shakhtar Donestk have experience on the continental pitch, while Mönchengladbach is the fourth strongest team in Germany after Bayern Munich, Dortmund and Leipzig.
Real Madrid have many performance problems at this point
Real Madrid welcomed Shakhtar Donestk at home with a lot of mentality. They lost points in the last two La Liga games and the last one was a 1-0 loss to a newly promoted Cádiz at home.
Coach Zidane did not hide his disappointment and confirmed that Real Madrid deserved a great defeat against Cádiz. The blurring of public assets and ungainly mistakes in the defense line led to Real Madrid receiving unsatisfactory results.
Eden Hazard’s long-term injury and lack of quality improvement during the transfer window made the Real Madrid squad very slim. Benzema, Vinicius and Rodrygo show signs of fatigue from having to plow too many matches.
The absence of Cádiz shows the fatigue of the Real Madrid players, after having returned from the World Cup tie. Coach Zidane understands it, but he is completely defenseless and the failure of Real Madrid is not difficult to understand.
Coach Zidane is concerned about the physical condition of the Real Madrid players
The 4-day break is tremendously valuable for coach Zidane now, for the whole team to recover. The match with Shakhtar Donestk is important in Real Madrid’s goal in the Champions League, because this group is not easy for rivals Inter and Monchengladbach.
Shakhtar Donestk is Ukraine’s number one team and has a wealth of experience in the continental arena. They reached the semi-finals of the Europa League last year and lost to Inter Milan. Shakhtar also eliminated many fierce opponents such as Wolfsburg, Benfica and Basel to be in the group of the four strongest teams in the Europa League.
The advantage of playing at home helps Real Madrid to have confidence, but coach Zidane is certainly not subjective. 3 points is a mandatory goal from the “white vulture” heading into the opening day of Group B of the Champions League, in a promising journey in the European Cup this season.
In the other match, Inter Milan greeted Monchengladbach in Meazza with an uncomfortable mentality. The bitter defeat at the hands of AC Milan at the weekend took a heavy toll on the team’s psychology before entering the Champions League.
Inter Milan needed a boost after losing to AC Milan in Serie A
Inter played successfully last year, reaching the final of the Europa League. But memories of many “knockdowns” in the Champions League from the group stage worried Nerrazzurri, especially when facing a stubborn Germany representative like Mönchengladbach.
In terms of strength and experience, Inter were better rated than Mönchengladbach, especially when Conte’s technical team played at home. However, if defense errors are not improved, many risks await the Europa League runner-up tonight in Meazza.
