THE BIGGER PICTURE: Madrid earned this hard-fought victory despite losing the initiative early in the first half. However,

they fought back to earn a really amazing three points,

like champions do.

The third game of the season for Real Madrid was yet another away game. The team coached by Carlo Ancelotti travelled to Barcelona to take on RCD Espanyol. Two lineup adjustments were made by the Italian,

both at full back. With David Alaba moving to left back,

the starting XI was formed by Lucas Vazquez and Toni Rudiger. That fullback combination might be more effective than the Carvajal-Mendy combination in deeper blocks.

Despite a valiant effort

by Espanyol,

Real Madrid was able to win thanks to goals from the explosive combo of Benzema and Vinicius. With his changes,

Carlo Ancelotti altered the dynamic of the match and made Camavinga and Rodrygo Goes the stars.

the ball deflected off of Eder Militao and back to him. In his last nine outings against Real Madrid, he has scored seven goals.
