Tactical story
Real Madrid set up with a possession-heavy structure, often building through Sandie Toletti and Weir in midfield. Deportivo defended in a mid-block, trying to deny central lanes and force Madrid wide. That approach worked for long stretches, but Madrid’s wingers remained patient and kept stretching the back line.
The opening goal rewarded Madrid’s control, and the second arrived when Deportivo had to push more players forward. Caicedo’s pace in transition became the decisive weapon, turning a organised defensive performance into a comfortable away win. Deportivo’s best moments came from set pieces and quick counters, but Misa Rodríguez was rarely troubled in the Madrid goal.
