Topik: La Liga, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Zinedine Zidane, James Rodriguez, Antoine Griezmann
Zizou's crew was unable to extend their unbeaten streak against their neighbours, practically detonating their chances of winning La Liga.

Zidane's magic with Real Madrid was not enough to help them beat Atlético Madrid, raising huge criticism among fans and experts. Los Blancos were unable to break Diego Simeone's defensive system, and a lonely goal by Antoine Griezmann was enough to tackle Real Madrid's realistic hopes of winning La Liga.

The French boss was no match for his counterpart, as Simeone showed a masterful tactical approach that denied Real Madrid clear chances of scoring. Cristiano Ronaldo came close with a free kick and a header, but that was almost everything for Real Madrid, who sorely missed Gareth Bale's dribbling skills. Furthermore, James Rodriguez and Jesé put up one of their worst performances with Los Blancos, being subbed off after Los Blancos had conceded.

Zidane's stats in his first 9 games with Los Blancos aren't that different to the ones Rafa Benítez put up. The only difference is that the French coach has already lost one game. Benitez won six and added three draws.

If Barcelona wins against Sevilla, Real Madrid will be 12 points behind Los Blaugranas, making their chances of winning the domestic title almost impossible. Fans and experts have noticed this, and they surely made themselves felt on social media. Have a look at what they had to say.
