Le mythique entraîneur italien Claudio Ranieri était de passage dans l'émission de Vicente Ortega sur les ondes Marca. Il a évoqué l'actualité du football.

Le Real, c'est le Real, et il le mérite plus que les autres mais bon, ils font ce qu'ils veulent avec les distinctions." Le Real, 3e meilleur club du monde : "Ça, c'est très bizarre. C'est un grand joueur qui mérite tout ça." Benzema : "C'est totalement justifié qu'il ait remporté le Ballon d'Or. Le Real est une équipe déjà faite tandis que le Barça est en train de tout reconstruire." Le Clasico : "Le Real est supérieur à énormément d'équipes.

Neymar has criticised the Ballon d'Or rankings after Brazil team-mate Vinicius Junior only finished eighth.

Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is the only one to make the top three since 2006 when he finished behind Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in 2014. A battle that remains to be won. It seems that scoring a goal is better than stopping it. "I'm not saying I would have won it. Vinicius enjoyed an impressive 2021/22 season with Real Madrid, scoring 21 goals and providing 20 assists in La Liga and the Champions League. I don't know if as a goalkeeper you can do more than what I did last year,” he said.

Join us for all the action from the Manuel Martínez Valero stadium as Los Blancos come to town as current leaders of LaLiga.

2 Los Blancos travel to the Province of Alicante where Elche are their hosts. Meanwhile, Gerard Gumbau and Lucas Boye will return to the team. Tchouameni, who came on for Modric, does brilliantly to hold off two challenges and lays it on a plate for the overlapping Carvajal to slide in a cross. Madrid get the ball rolling and immediately get into their stride. The boss wasn’t keen to talk about players from other teams, instead choosing to showcase the plethora of young talent already playing in Europe’s most successful club. It's been such a disappointing time in Madrid for Eden Hazard since he moved from Chelsea. As I was saying before Alaba put the ball in the net, when Madrid want to, they appear to be able to play through their opponents with relative ease. Straight from kick-off, and an overhit cross from the right is fired back into the middle where Lucas Boye is waiting. It's been a positive second half from the hosts, relatively. Benzema appears to have scored but VAR taking a look... The champions dominated the game throughout and had several chances other than the three efforts ruled out, one by David Alaba and two from Benzema.

Lunin 7 - Match référence pour l'Ukrainien qui, pour la deuxième fois de la saison en Liga, parvient à conserver ses cages inviolées. Il a été décisif ce soir ...

Rodrygo : 8 - Auteur de deux passes décisives, Rodrygo a été brillant dans un rôle d’électron libre qu’il affectionne et qui lui va bien. On a assisté à de très belles actions par ailleurs. Au-delà de son but, il a été très actif et mobile comme à son habitude. Il a d’ailleurs bien failli s’offrir un doublé en fin de match. Carvajal : 6 - Avec peu de travail à réaliser sur le plan défensif, l’Espagnol a davantage animé son couloir droit. Il a été décisif ce soir en réalisant deux parades à 0-1 et la deuxième est difficile !

Days after Real Madrid beat Barcelona and Karim Benzema winning the Ballon d'Or, both team and player had little trouble against Elche.

His first two goals were cancelled out after an easy finish was brought back for offside - and then a powerful low strike was ruled out for the same reason. A tidy finish from a great Rodrygo Goes pass in the final minute meant that Marco was on the scoresheet before full time. He combined with Karim Benzema for the second, and picked out Marco Asensio for the third. Vinícius Júnior—7: Looked really slippery at times as defenders struggled to get near him, but was ultimately unable to add to his statistics for the season. One run in the first half saw him beat to players before simultaneously nutmegging and being fouled by the third. He was then a vital component of Real Madrid’s domination throughout the match. Another excellent finish to add to his collection today as he opened the scoring. Luka Modrić — 7.5: Constantly involved in build up play across the attack, helping to give Los Blancos control of the proceedings. It was a game of disallowed goals galore, but Real Madrid did enough to come out with the three points nonetheless. His first time shot was scratched out due to an offside - but other than that he enjoyed his offensive duties as a full-back, and still defended solidly as well. Éder Militão —8.5: A man really entering the best form of his career so far. Dani Carvajal—7.5: A good showing from a big game player in a not so big game.

The start of the game was delayed after a Sociedad fan fell ill. Benzema, who on Monday won the Ballon d'Or award for best player of the year, had his goals disallowed for offside in the sixth and 61st minutes. He also caused a David Alaba goal to be called off for being offside in the 26th. It was the ninth win in 10 matches for the defending champions. The Ballon d'Or winner couldn't bear seeing another one of his goals being disallowed. He had already found the net twice, but neither had counted because of offside.

Real Madrid legend, Karim Benzema, recently was crowned the Ballon d'Or winner and it looks like he already has his retirement plans sorted.

At the same time though, he is 34 years of age, and sooner or later, Real Madrid will need to look for a replacement. “I have a contract with Real Madrid. Karim Benzema had won everything that there was to win in the club game many times over at Real Madrid.

He let everyone talk and criticize, but now what he has achieved with his career, and his numbers respond on his behalf.” “Karim was a very good player with Cristiano, he scored and made many goals for Ronaldo. “I am like an older brother to Benzema, that’s what we like very well to call each other.

[Real Madrid](https://www.football-espana.net/category/la-liga/real-madrid) would be denied by narrow offsides but it was not to matter, such was the incisive play on display. There was a frantic start to the match and Benzema was on the scoresheet early, only to see it wiped away by a narrow offside. His cross was almost cushioned into the net by Marco Asensio scoring with his first touch.

After 75 minutes Benzema eventually got one which counted, his fifth of the season in La Liga, set-up by a sweet backheel from Rodrygo to complete a one-two. However the match was overshadowed by the news that a Real Sociedad supporter had died. Alaba had a goal ruled out later on in a half in which Madrid dominated, but Elche started the second period strongly, with Lucas Boye slapping a volley narrowly over. The Uruguayan netted in Sunday's Clasico win over Barcelona and has become a key offensive weapon for his team, even though on this occasion he was deployed in midfield, instead of on the right wing. Madrid had picked Elche apart and only a desperate block denied Benzema, but the visitors kept the move alive and when the ball broke to Valverde, he netted his sixth goal of the season across all competitions. Benzema appeared to send Madrid ahead in the sixth minute after a slick team move but Vinicius Junior had edged offside in the build-up and it was disallowed.

However, Real Madrid are no slouch and have made great efforts to engineer a move for Endrick. In addition, Arsenal have built a solid reputation for offering youngsters the opportunity to perform at the highest level. The Gunners already have an excellent record of bringing in Brazilian talents in recent years, with Gabriel Martinelli, for one, enjoying a rapid rise to prominence. In light of his excellent performances in Brazil, Endrick has become one of the top targets for Real Madrid. Incidentally, it was Ancelotti who was the head coach of Real Madrid at the time. Real Madrid have lagged behind Barcelona and other rivals when it comes to Copa del Rey in recent years.
