Real Madrid fans clash over Eden Hazard after Cadizttps://www.101greatgoals.com/”http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd”>

 

Real Madrid’s supporters have taken to social media tonight, to unveil altogether contrasting takes on the latest display of underperforming attacker Eden Hazard.

Cadiz stand up tall

Carlo Ancelotti’s men, of course, returned to action a short time ago.

Amid a fine spell of recent form, Los Blancos welcomed minnows Cadiz to the Bernabeu, hopeful of further extending their advantage at the La Liga summit courtesy of a three-point haul.

When all was said and done, however, Real came up short, ultimately forced to settle for a share of the spoils.

On the back of a major Covid-19 outbreak in the club’s camp this week, the capital giants simply couldn’t find an all-important breakthrough, held at bay by a combination of profligacy in front of goal and the brilliance of Jeremias Ledesma.

Hazard back-and-forth

In turn, on the back of a disappointing night’s work all-round for their side, it shouldn’t come as a massive surprise to hear of Real Madrid’s fanbase taking aim at the club’s stars in characteristically ruthless fashion.

The likes of Lucas Vazquez and even star man Karim Benzema have come in for criticism on the back of the full-time whistle in the Spanish capital, as the Blancos faithful seek out a scapegoat.

Another to have been forced to face up to an altogether hefty backlash, meanwhile, has been Eden Hazard.

With Marco Asensio, Gareth Bale and Rodrygo all ruled out of Sunday’s action owing to positive tests for Covid-19, the oft-maligned Hazard was utilised from the off against Cadiz.

Evidently, however, many feel as though the Belgian failed to grasp his latest opportunity, culminating in more than a few calls for his sale to be sanctioned by the Bernabeu hierarchy this January:

Interestingly, however, such calls have since been met in return by widespread defence of Hazard.

Fellow Real supporters have been keen to call out what has evidently been identified as unwarranted criticism of their side’s struggling wide-man, amid contrasting claims that, in fact, Hazard stood out as Los Merengues’ finest performer over the course of the 90 minutes:
