#2 Madrid needs some time to settle without Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo who has been their most important player in recent memory left Real Madrid for Juventus. Madrid did everything right in the game, but their finishing was not up to the mark. This can be a huge problem for them in the following season.
Ronaldo helped Real win four Champions League titles in the last five years which is phenomenal given the competitiveness of the competition. While Ronaldo was in Madrid, they had one of the best finishers in the world. Now that Ronaldo has left for Juventus, Madrid will need some time to settle.
Bale who was not playing regularly for Madrid last season will take some time to bring back his form. Bale is the kind of player that has a lot of qualities. He can dribble, score acrobatic goals and even score spectacular freekicks.
Benzema is good on the ball but is often criticised for his finishing. He needs to work hard on his finishing if he wants to continue playing for Madrid.
Against United, Madrid had 16 shots out which only three were on target. This indicates how much they will miss Ronaldo in the finishing department.
