Decisive battle with Barcelona! The only suspense in Real Madrid’s starting lineup: 2 people competing for the main spot, Alonso has a difficult choice

Football

This Sunday night, the 10th round of La Liga will start the El Clasico, with Real Madrid facing Barcelona at home. For Real Madrid coach Alonso, this is a big test. Tactical deployment and starting selection must be done carefully. "Marca" on October 24 pointed out that for the right winger position, Brahim Dias and Mastantono compete, which is the only suspense for Real Madrid's starting lineup.

In the 1-0 victory over Juventus in the Champions League, Alonso formed a 433 formation, with Guler, Bellingham, and Joan Armene in the midfield, and Vinicius, Mbappe, and Brahim Dias in the frontcourt. In the weekend's El Clasico, Real Madrid's midfield and frontcourt framework remained basically unchanged, with Bellingham and Guler responsible for creativity, and Joan Armene taking on defensive tasks.

The right winger is the only suspense: Brahim Dias or Mastantono?

Judging from the Champions League performance in mid-week, Brahim Dias was outstanding. He made 3 of 4 shots on target and made 2 key passes. The passing success rate was as high as 88%. Brahim Dias is familiar with Real Madrid's offensive system, runs tirelessly, and can execute high-position pressing tactics, which means he is very powerful.

Mastantono represents the future. This summer, Mastantono joined Real Madrid for 45 million euros and gained the trust of coach Alonso. In the 12 games of La Liga and the Champions League in the new season, the 18-year-old Pony started 8 times, which is enough to show Alonso's trust in him. However, Mastantono is still a piece of rough jade that requires patience and time to carve. In 11 appearances this season, Mastantuono has only scored 1 goal.

"Marca" stated that the choices of Brahim Dias and Mastantono mark two directions: the former is immediate combat power, and the latter is the future. Mastantono has potential, but is not stable. Alonso said: "Mastantono comes from a different football environment. He is only 18 years old. We need to help him, but we are satisfied with his progress and hope that he will continue to improve."

From the perspective of style characteristics, Brahim Dias seems to be more suitable for starting this national derby.

In La Liga this season, Brahim Dias has 1.8 shots per 90 minutes and Mastantono has 3.5 shots per 90 minutes. Brahim does not need to occupy the ball or fire. The Colts have a strong desire to shoot, but their aim is not good. Real Madrid has two superstars in Vinicius and Mbappe. The right winger needs more interspersed movement and dedication, and Brahim is undoubtedly more suitable.

"Marca" summary: Brahim Dias is Real Madrid's "now" and Mastantono represents the "future". In the Champions League victory over Juventus, Brahim Dias used an outstanding performance to prove his worth and ability. This was a signal to coach Alonso. Brahim Dias starts, and the Colts come off the bench, which would be a more reasonable choice. However, Alonso has yet to decide who will be the right winger.
