Without Karim Benzema in the announcement of the Real Madrid for the party of the Saturday in front of the Elche, Eden Hazard or Luka Jovic were called to 'colarse' in the initial alignment of Carlo Ancelotti for the party in the Martínez Valero. However, the trainer madridista gave the big surprise and was Mariano Díaz, the one who had not premièred this season, the one who jumped to the field to accompany to Vinícius Jr and Rodrygo Goes in the forward. Anybody explained the decision, but finished 'hitting'.

Mariano was one of the novelties of a Madrid that showed that it can win without Benzema, suffering at the end, but resolving the parties. The Hispanic-dominican gave a perfect assistance of heel for 'Vini' in his first so much of the afternoon, the one who opened the marker. During the clash, was hit and left the feeling that it has to add more minutes in this course, something that had not showed under the orders of Zidane, with the one who only had shined with the goal that annotated in front of the FC Barcelona in the last Classical before the pandemia.

The big performance of Mariano caused that they had more doubts regarding Luka Jovic, the one who saw all the party from the bench. From the club had hinted that was not to 100% and that, therefore, Carlo Ancelotti did not want to force and toparse with some surprise, something that reaffirmed in press conference: "Jovic has had a problem with a knee in the last party that played (on 3 October in Barcelona, home of the Espanyol). Still it has not trained well and it does not find comfortable. Therefore it has not played the party. Tuvo A sprain and still has not recovered entirely. Therefore it has played Mariano".

However, as it comments the newspaper 'ACE', from the surroundings of Luka Jovic have filtered that it did not exist some physical problem and that the decision that it remained in the bench has been only of 'Carletto', leaving in the air that, really, something is happening with a Jovic that when it has played, has left good feelings. The Serbian allows that Karim benzema 'free' and combine very well, but have been lacking of continuity in the field.

Opportunity in sight for Jovic

The true is that probably Ancelotti will be forced to give him more minutes to Jovic because Mariano will be 'KO' by at least ten days, after going through operating theatre after breaking the nose in a hard fall when trying hunt an aerial balloon,in addition to a pisotón back of Marcone. It will be drop and, for rotar, Luka Jovic could see more minutes.

The Hispanic-dominican wrote in his social networks: "I can not be happier by my debut and the victory of the team, but lamentably, after a bad fall, have suffered a break of the nose of which have to be operated. I will be some days was, wishing from already go back with my mates". This Sunday, confirmed that all had gone out well, but will have to happen some days training in solitary to avoid contacts.
