On Tuesday evening, Real Madrid were beaten by Liverpool at Anfield (1-0). Without a great Thibaut Courtois, the score could have been more important. Since then, the Spanish press has been looking for the culprits. And Xabi Alonso, whose choices raised questions, is not spared. But it’s not just the media that are asking questions. His group too.

They don’t understand why he exposed Trent Alexander-Arnold at Anfield.explained last night El Chiringuito. Indeed, the English right-back was booed when he came into play and whistled by the English public each time he took the ball. The Liverpool players didn’t spare him either.
