Éder Militao

Alfredo Relaño offers his thoughts on Real Madrid's win over Inter Milan in the sides' Champions League Group D opener on Wednesday.

Bale and Hazard accompanied Benzema in the opening game of the season, but Madrid's upcoming stars haven't earned their place, notes Alfredo Relaño.

Ancelotti's first line-up featured the recently-returned Bale with Eden Hazard alongside Karim Benzema in the 1-4 win over Alavés, writes Alfredo Relaño.

The decision to award a penlty against Éder Militão was another example of institutional meddling in the simplest aspects of the game, says Alfredo Relaño.

In the Old Testament, Madrid would have deservedly beaten Sevilla.

Real Madrid continue to battle on two fronts with the same intensity in both competitions. Late goals against Osasuna thrilled Zidane, writes Alfredo Relaño.
