Real Madrid record third goalless draw in LaLiga

Real Madrid title race in danger once again after only managed a goalless draw at home against Athletic Club.

This is their third time they were unable to find the net, against Real Betis last month and second successive draw after playing Barcelona last week.

So far Real have only scored 14 fewer goals than Barcelona have in the first 18 matches of this season.

Despite the fact Karim Benzema has scored 12 goals in 17 league games this season, if he does not score, no one else will for Real.

In comparison to Barcelona, Lionel Messi scored 13 goals so far, but they have Luis Suarez who already scored 10 while new signing Antoine Griezmann has scored 7 goals.

Besides Benzema, the other Real scorers is Sergio Ramos who is a defender and scored only three goals while Toni Kroos, Luka Modric, Gareth Bale, Rodrygo and Fede Valverde each have scored twice.

This should be posed as a serious problem for Zinedine Zidane, who are still unable to find his form since his return as well as the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo.

If he doesn’t solve this soon, Real will be left behind Barca once again.
