Levante have hardly been in Real Madrids half, let alone their penalty area! It’s been that dominant from the home side. Karim Benzema is looking busy, an obvious result of the extra competition afforded by the signing of Adebayor, while Lass Diarra is making the most of his opportunity, cutting out Levante passes in midfield and generally making a nuisance of himself when Levante are in possession. Adán can hardly have wished for an easier league debut.
Real Madrid vs Levante: Mourinhos Men Totally Dominant
There were handbags a few minutes ago when, with Iborra stricken on the turf after a nasty foul from Sergio Ramos, Real Madrid refused to hit the ball out of play, Cristiano Ronaldo eventually letting fly from outside the area. The Levante players were incensed with the Portuguese stars behaviour and let him know in no uncertain terms how they felt.
Marcelo, Cristiano and Benzema have all had chances to extend Real Madrids lead, and it’s just a question of when not if Madrid will add the second. It’s that easy for them at the moment. You have to admire Levante setting themselves up in a daring 4-3-3, but it’s leaving them overwhelmed in midfield. The manager Luis Garcia Plaza has to change this around.
