<\/p>\n
Real Madrid were dumped out of the Copa del Rey on Wednesday, as they were defeated 3-2 by Albacete<\/a> in their Round of 16 tie at the Estadio Carlos Belmonte.<\/em><\/p>\n The defeat was not his fault, but he will feel that he could have done better for Albacete\u2019s second and third goals.<\/p>\n Trusted by Alvaro Arbeloa, but it was a match where his inexperience at the top level shone through. He was targeted by Albacete on a number of occasions.<\/p>\n Solid enough.<\/p>\n He looks a shadow of the player that started the season in fantastic form. He was dangerous from attacking set-pieces, but in defence, he was hesitant.<\/p>\n Tried hard, but his effectiveness was not there.<\/p>\n Back in midfield, but he was disappointing. As much as he may not want to admit it, right now he is better as a right-back.<\/p>\n A promising performance from the young midfielder.<\/p>\n Got the assist for Real Madrid\u2019s second goal, but like Huijsen, he continues to be far away from his best level.<\/p>\n Scored right before half time<\/a>, but it was a largely ineffectiveness performance from Mastantuono \u2013 although he did try hard.<\/p>\n Real Madrid struggled to find him, but when Guler did from a corner, he made no mistake<\/a> to continue his good form.<\/p>\n Started well, but he was successfully shut down by Albacete\u2019s right side. He was backed to lead Real Madrid into the next round, but it was another disappointing performance from the Brazilian winger.<\/p>\n Struggled after replacing Huijsen.<\/p>\n Had no impact during his time on the pitch.<\/p>\n Good minutes on his return from injury, but he should have done better for Albacete\u2019s winning goal.<\/p>\n Made his first team debut.<\/p>\n Had little time to make an impact on his debut.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The post Real Madrid player ratings against Albacete: Alvaro Arbeloa fails to solve defensive woes<\/a> appeared first on Football Espa\u00f1a<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Real Madrid were dumped out of the Copa del Rey on Wednesday, as they were defeated 3-2 by Albacete in their Round of…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4552,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[13],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4550"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4550"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4550\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4554,"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4550\/revisions\/4554"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4552"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4550"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4550"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.piquant-burotic.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4550"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Andriy Lunin \u2013 6<\/h2>\n
