In the end, it was easy to predict that Real would win
Believe me, i wanted to place a single bet only on Real and Atletico, but the potential payout was too small, so i added these two "favorites" that actually werent real favorites.
It's only your choice as any Madrid derby match is always a big challenge for gamblers with match predictions on the winners and their bets. In this match with Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid won but the match was opened by an amazing free kick, a faboulous strike from Valverde from a very far distance. That strike is an unstoppable shot with any goalkeeper and Oblak simply was an audience in that situation.
Without that goal from Valverde, the Madrid derby would go differently, who knows?
This match is an excellent individual performance from Valverde as after the goal, he made an assist for Rodrygo who scored a second goal for Real Madrid and generally this win has very big contribution from Valverde.
As they say, with this win Xabi Alonso has kept his place on the Real Madrid bench once again, for who knows how many times. Every time i watch a Real Madrid match, the commentator says that if Xabi gets a negative result, he will be sacked, yet after many games he is still there.As for Valverde, it was a brilliant shot and an even better goal. Honestly, the only one to blame for that goal was Oblak, who did not position the wall properly. He knew and could have expected that Valverde would shoot from that distance. In my opinion, he should have added one more player to the wall.All in all, it was an interesting match. It doesnt matter that i lost my bet, the important thing is that we watched good football
For those who didnt see Valverdes "rocket," you can watch it
