Zinedine Zidane faces a real challenge - the team is in a huge crisis, and two other important team players have also dropped out of the lineup.
The Madrid "Real" coach took a risk and used Sergio Ramos' services in the King's Cup rematch, despite the fact that he was recovering from an injury until those matches. The decision not only did not bring benefits, but also caused harm - the defender suffered a re-injury of the calf muscle strain.
It is announced that without the team captain, the Spanish champions will have to do without him for up to two weeks. It is expected that the defender will fully recover by the first match against Paris Saint-Germain.
However, the loss of S. Ramos is not the only one - defender Isco also drops out for a week. The Spaniard fractured his left rib in today's training session and will have to rest for a while.
Tomorrow, the "Real" team will face another challenge - they will play away against their tournament table neighbor "Valencia".
