According to the report from football-espana, Real Madrid have started 2024 the same way that they ended 2023 – with a battling 1-0 victory. This time, it was Mallorca that they have seen off at the Santiago Bernabeu, in what was a largely frustrating match for the hosts.InformationGuideNigeria
Carlo Ancelotti opted to start with Vinicius Junior, with the Brazilian having recovered from his hamstring injury. However, he failed to contribute much during his 60-minute cameo, although he did come closest in the first half, as his effort was tipped wide by Mallorca goalkeeper Predrag Rajkovic.JAMB Result
Vinicius was replaced by Brahim Diaz on the hour mark, and the Spaniard somehow failed to score soon after coming on. Rodrygo’s effort was palmed into Brahim’s path, and with the goal at his mercy six yards out, he somehow hit the post.JAMB Result
