Real Madrid secured a 4-2 win against Almeria, with Karim Benzema scoring a first-half hat-trick and Rodrygo scoring the other goal. The win puts pressure on Barcelona, who have been struggling for wins lately. However, Real Madrid will be without two of their starters, Vinicius Jr and Eduardo Camavinga, who picked up yellow cards and are suspended for their upcoming game against Real Sociedad. Vinicius and Camavinga have been two of Real Madrid’s best performers in recent times, and their absence could make things difficult for the team, especially considering their inconsistency in the league this season.
Vinicius has been one of Real Madrid’s most consistent sources of goals and assists this season, alongside Benzema. Camavinga has enjoyed a meteoric rise after the World Cup break and is now a nailed-on starter. The left flank consisting of Vinicius and Camavinga has proven to be Real Madrid’s biggest strength recently. It will be interesting to see how they do without both those players against a strong Real Sociedad.
Real Madrid’s win against Almeria puts them in a good position, but their upcoming game against Real Sociedad will be a tough test, especially without Vinicius and Camavinga. Real Madrid will need to step up their game and find other players to fill the void left by the suspended duo.
