Tomás Guasch Explodes and Reveals Why Real Madrid Can't Complain About Injuries

The words with which Tomás Guasch has made it clear that injuries are a topic Madrid can't complain about

After several intense matchdays, LaLiga has taken an unexpected turn for Real Madrid. During their visit to Benito Villamarín, the club was outplayed by Real Betis, who managed to take all three points. With a final score of 2-1, the Merengue team is facing various criticisms and questions from Madridists.

One of the most popular criticisms has come from Tomás Guasch, who has made it clear why Real Madrid can't complain about their absences. "Madrid's absences are terrifying, but I believe that things like today go against the very spirit of Madrid."

"I saw yesterday that they were losing because there was a euphoric Betis that has its absences, but each position has its specific footballers." With these final words, Guasch revealed that the reason for Real Madrid's defeat was their inability to manage their absences.

Absences Are Not an Excuse

This season started irregularly for Real Madrid due to multiple injuries. Losing some of their stars, the club took some time to return to a great level. Although the team has managed to perform excellently in recent weeks, the match against Real Betis has been a tough blow.

Tomás Guasch's words make it clear that the issue of the team's absences is not an excuse for their poor performance. Using Real Betis as an example, Guasch revealed that Real Madrid's major problem lies in tactical issues.

Suffering equally significant absences, Real Betis managed to cover all their positions wonderfully thanks to a good game plan. The defeat was the result of Carlo Ancelotti's poor decisions and, above all, the lack of motivation from the squad.

The Need for a Change

Recalling the Madrid of Pirri, Di Stéfano, and Puskas, Guasch also made it clear that he saw a clear lack of hunger for victory from the team. Despite this tough defeat, the team still has time to fix these marked problems.
