Well of course, it must be horrible to lose to a team you beat 8-0 in the Copa del Ray last season but that’s exactly what happened to Madrid against Levante last night… ¡qué pena!! Khedira got sent off shortly before half-time, which proved to be a huge boost for the home side and Levante capitalised on Madrid’s sluggish performance to win 1-0 thanks to Arouna Kone‘s goal. It says a lot when your talisman is suffering from an ankle injury and you still have to field him (ie. Ronaldo). The result also means that Valencia are currently top of the La Liga table with Real Betis at 9 points.
“Our opponent didn’t enter our half of the pitch and Casillas didn’t even touch the ball. We had great chances to score and we failed to capitalise on them because the pitch was in bad shape and Levante defended fiercely.” – Mourinho (hmm, excuses again?)
