Real Madrid Defender Sets Another Impressive Performance For Zinedine Zidane In Recent Victory

The games are back and Real Madrid is picking up right where they left off with a 2-1 victory over Real Sociedad. The strong win is their third straight victory since the La Liga season returned and a notable bright spot was Raphael Varane’s performance.

Per The Real Champs, Real Madrid saw a positive performance from Varane with the way he commanded the team’s defense. With incredible timing and accuracy, Varane made his presence felt in the game for Zinedine Zidane. The 27-year-old displayed a dominant performance throughout the whole match with four clearances and four blocks.

Ever since Los Blancos returned from the long absence on the pitch, they’ve performed well without any considerable rust. This was evident for Varane as his aggressiveness was in full display, constantly running on the field to clean up any passes by their opponents. The offense of Real Sociedad didn’t stand a chance as Varane showed to everyone why he’s considered as one of the best center backs in the game.

The manner Varane was moving comfortably showed the trust Real Madrid has for him. On every defensive end, the four-time Champions League winner stepped up by mopping loose balls and hustling aggressively on every opportunity he got.

The La Liga season is back right where it left off and continues to be a close affair between Real Madrid and FC Barcelona. This victory sets off a back and forth exchange in the team standings as Real Madrid has taken the top spot.

With a record of 19 wins, eight draws and three losses, Los Merengues has claimed the number one seed. They are tied with Barcelona with 65 points who stands with a 20 win, five draws, five-loss record.

It will be interesting to see how Real Madrid moves forward in the remaining games of the season. With players such as Varane stepping up for Zidane, the team is looking to end the campaign on a strong note. Expectations are high for the club now as they’re seeking to remain above their Barcelona rivals and come away with the La Liga title.
