Real Madrid have been slated in the Spanish press following their defeat to Liverpool in the Champions League. Alexis Mac Allister's second half strike earned the hosts a 1-0 victory, which, without Thibaut Courtois' heroics in goal, would have been an even bigger scoreline.

Los Blancos club entered the tie in dominant shape, boasting not only a flawless record in Europe but also 10 victories from 11 La Liga matches. Liverpool, meanwhile, had been struggling for consistency - losing six games in all competitions and looking vulnerable in the weeks leading up to the clash.

Yet Arne Slot's men fully deserved their win, with Conor Bradley silencing Vinicius Jr and Ryan Gravenberch keeping Jude Bellingham under control. Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, however, singled out Kylian Mbappe, accusing the French forward of "going missing," especially in the first 45.
