Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 72290, member: 636"] Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso has called on his squad to reclaim the playing principles that delivered success against Barcelona at Santiago Bernabeu, according to Spanish media reports. The team secured a narrow victory in El Clásico but subsequently abandoned the organized pressing, collective effort, and constant movement that produced the win. Alonso addressed attacking stars Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, and Jude Bellingham about defining specific responsibilities in the final third, with all three players responding positively to the tactical instructions. The Spanish publication noted that team chemistry remains strong, though clarifying individual roles represents a vital adjustment as Real Madrid confronts upcoming fixtures. [/QUOTE]
