Real Madrid is facing serious difficulties against FC Barcelona in the 2025 Spanish Super Cup final. Trailing 4-1 at halftime, Carlo Ancelotti\u2019s players are enduring a tough ordeal. Even before the break, fans\u2019 criticisms are already focused on two specific names.<\/p>\n
After a heavy defeat to Bar\u00e7a in La Liga on October 26, Real Madrid seems headed toward another collapse. In the Super Cup final, played on Sunday in Saudi Arabia, Madrid had a strong start with a stunning goal from Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 in the 5th minute.<\/p>\n
However, hopes quickly faded. Lamine Yamal equalized, capitalizing on a defensive mistake, before Barcelona took the lead through a penalty conceded by Camavinga and converted by Lewandowski. The Catalan side then took full control, with Raphinha and Bald\u00e9 adding to the score.<\/p>\n
Who is to blame for this disappointment? Tchouam\u00e9ni or Ancelotti? Madrid supporters are expressing their anger.<\/p>\n
Trailing by four goals, Real Madrid looks set for another crushing defeat, sparking frustration among the fans. Following Yamal\u2019s equalizer, Aur\u00e9lien Tchouam\u00e9ni\u2019s name quickly came under scrutiny. Playing as a central defender in recent matches, the French midfielder is criticized for his lack of impact. Instead of tightening the defensive line and attempting to stop the young Catalan star, Tchouam\u00e9ni appeared helpless, revealing his limitations in a position that doesn\u2019t seem to suit him. Already struggling in midfield throughout the season, he is failing to convince as a defender, especially against such a formidable team as Barcelona.<\/p>\n
While Tchouam\u00e9ni is the target of much criticism, Carlo Ancelotti is not spared either, particularly on social media. His tactical choices, including leaving out Ra\u00fal Asensio, a solid and experienced defender who could have better dealt with Barcelona\u2019s attacks, are strongly questioned. The Italian coach, who claimed to have learned from the 4-0 defeat on October 26, seems to be repeating the same mistakes, leading Real Madrid toward an embarrassing collapse. Disappointed and frustrated fans are struggling to accept the manager\u2019s decisions, which have put the club in a difficult position during this Superclasico.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
