Hupu News on October 27 In a previously concluded Spanish El Clasico match, Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 2-1. In this game, Wenger also talked about his views on this game in the beIN Sports Studio.

Wenger said: "Xabi Alonso balanced the team very well today. Overall, on some levels, this game is a bit like 'adults versus children'. For example, Real Madrid's defensive performance is much more stable than Barcelona. Offensively, Real Madrid always gives people a sense of pressure that 'can score another goal', while Barcelona, ​​in the absence of Lewandowski and Rafinha, appears to have no threat on the offensive end."

"Mbappe missed a penalty point. Behind the ball, Barcelona controlled more of the ball in the second half, but they were never able to create a real chance to score. Real Madrid's defensive balance was very good today, and credit must go to Xavi Alonso. "

"Typically, you focus on balancing the roster, re-energizing the players, and setting goals that are better than the previous year. But judging from Barcelona's current situation, I think they have lost Inigo Martinez in the defense. ——He is one of the few experienced players on the team. During Mbappe's goal today, everyone can clearly see that Barcelona's defense lacks maturity and experience in dealing with it. "

"Barcelona's performance at critical moments today lacked maturity. To win a major game, the key lies in being able to properly handle important points in the game. How did Mbappe do it? He made his goal clear during the game: 'All I have to do is to intersperse When you get behind the opponent's central defender, you will always find a chance to score', and he will clearly tell his midfield teammates to pay attention to his movement as long as they get the ball. "

"Bellingham's pass was a masterpiece, and Barcelona did not have a player who could create such a decisive moment today. Ultimately, after the game you will understand that it is that 'top level' - that unique ability that determines the outcome of the game: including broad vision and decisive movement. "
