Eden Hazard is back for the thirteenth (!)

In the past three seasons, Eden Hazard has played only 27% of the maximum number of minutes possible for Real Madrid. So it was the thirteenth time since his arrival in 2019 that Hazard had returned to Royal. Against Osasuna, our compatriot played the first few minutes of play after being knocked out by the Red Devils during the Nations League due to a right hamstring increase.

In last weekend’s Clasico, Hazard was left on the bench for a full match, but this time, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti allowed Hazard a few minutes. However, there was no place to start. Earlier this week, Ancelotti put our compatriot on edge by suggesting that he must continue to work to regain his starting position. “Eden is fit again, but I prefer the other players to him. He has to keep working.”

Vinicius Jr. After all, the Red Devils went through the pecking order, and the 21-year-old Brazilian once again made a sharp showing against Osasuna. With some clever moves, the winger was the most dangerous player on the field in the first half in a game that wasn’t that big.

Also in the second half, Real Madrid was the most sure to search for a goal, without success. In the 70th minute, it was up to Hazard to play. However, the Red Devil suddenly did not come to Vinicius. He replaced Asensio, so he did not move to the left, but gained a central role on the field. However, our compatriot did not participate much in the game. He was not noticed by his quick dribbling or sharp movements and he could not help Real Madrid win. De Koninklicki stayed at home 0-0, but remained joint leaders in La Liga.
