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.
