Our european catechism

The European catechism of Real Madrid says that, if the law of minimum effort can be used in games that look inconsequential... there will be a fooly day. F for Failure.

We did not want to run more than necessary. The signs were everywhere, and those who like to get angry about these things... have reasons to be. Rodrygo scores a goal, in minute 92, and instead of the whole team running out to kick off the center and hang the last ball... we stayed celebrating and jogging. Rodrygo was determined, by himself, to score a goal in those last minutes. Own last minutes war. We were already coming from a fatally defended 3-1 by Militao (the pass could only go there) or the goals in the first minutes, in the fools day operation that we implemented as soon as the game started.

The idea was not to risk, not a single extra drop of sweat. And if the draw came out, because with almost nothing we get into the game, well, work done and that the sixth day was played by Vallejo and Mariano, with Hazard between them. Well: it won't be like that. Because we leave it for the last day, at a stupid hour (seven o'clock) and against an affordable rival... what the heck, you get 0-1 and who knows. Ask Barça about Celtic.

Vinicius had the tie just before the 2-1 but did not enter. They were a good rival, a good crowd and despite everything we were there, close. Close enough to show that if we wanted to...

Well, we know that we are like that. So getting upset silly is not necessary. The law of minimum effort was not enough and we will have to win against Celtic.

I already feel sorry for Vallejo: maybe he should have played today.
