Madrid's motivation to return/suffering but resilient: Real doesn't want to give up
Real Madrid with Jose Mourinho is very motivated and not willing to give up easily.
According to "Sports Three", Real Madrid is a team that faces problems in the game, but is still alive. Beyond the difficulties it faces in winning because of its tactical problems, this team has shown a tenacious spirit that has saved it from numerous crises. The game with Rome was not only the latest example, but also represents a hidden feature among the difficulties to make it easier to win.
Because playing Roma was not a miracle, but an exercise in pride. And this is not the first time that Real Madrid has shown this issue this season. This team has shown tenacity in the final moments of the games in six cases. Although he hasn't always achieved his goal in the final effort, he has shown an image of complacency, which means the team is trying to play better and not use too much pride and bravado.
Real Madrid has played 10 games and in six of them, they experienced ups and downs in the final minutes. This happened against Espanyol and this team won a valuable victory in the 90th minute. A similar scenario was repeated against Elcheh. Also in defeats against Betis and Atlético. At La Cartuja, the team even had a penalty, which Mbappe missed for an equaliser, and at the Metropolitano, with 10 men, they held on in the derby to take a 2-1 lead through an 89th-minute Rodrigo goal.
He didn't score against Villarreal, but for more than 20 minutes, he defended the 1-0 scoreline with 10 men after Vinicius was sent off. And Rome, where in eight minutes, they changed the result 1-3 and achieved a very valuable victory in terms of sport and spirit. Espy, one of the main agents of these ups and downs of Real Madrid, revealed the secret: "We didn't want to give up, we wanted to win this game".
However, Real Madrid, influenced by sporting and non-sporting margins, is getting positive results. This team has won eight and lost two in 10 games. In La Liga, Barcelona's brilliant start has put Real Madrid in an awkward position, but in the Champions League, Real Madrid sit in the top eight with all the points. Bellingham wants to emphasize that, sending a direct message to the pessimists that surround the team. "Sometimes the games are a bit more difficult, but we've won almost all of them," he says.
This claim can be confirmed by looking at the last season in which optimism prevailed. Mourinho has resisted both of Xabi Alonso's starts to the season. If we take the Club World Cup as a yardstick, Real Madrid have eight wins, one draw and one defeat in their first 10 games under current Chelsea manager. If we consider the start of the season in La Liga, Real Madrid started the season with nine wins and one draw.
