Real Madrid Suffers Defeat Without Rodrygo
Real Madrid's latest Champions League match ended in disappointment as they suffered a 1-0 defeat to Lille. The absence of Brazilian winger Rodrygo Goes was conspicuous, as he was sidelined with a back injury sustained during the derby clash against Atletico Madrid.
According to reports, Rodrygo's injury forced Coach Carlo Ancelotti to rest him for the Lille match. Despite dominating possession, Real Madrid lacked the attacking firepower to break down Lille's resilient defense. The defeat marked Real Madrid's first loss of the season.
Rodrygo's importance to the team was evident in his absence. His speed, skill, and vision have consistently troubled opponents, providing a unique threat from the right flank. Without him, the attack lacked the necessary spark.
Real Madrid's injury list is growing, with Thibaut Courtois already sidelined. Ancelotti must navigate the challenging fixture list without key players. The Brazilian's absence serves as a reminder of the squad's lack of depth in attacking positions.
