Double or Nothing at the Las Vegas Classic
Las Vegas It is the city of chance par excellence. Full of casinos, the metropolis of the state of Nevada hosts a duel between Real Madrid y Barça in the early hours of this Sunday which, for some merengue players, will be much more than a friendly. A double or nothing.
It is the case of Hazard, Odriozola or Mariano whose participation in the duel against the Blaugrana team can mark his future in the team of Ancelotti. Who of course has more ballots to win is Eden Hazardwho has the place secured and his last days of training suggest that he is much finer and more in tune than on previous occasions.
If nothing goes wrong and you get past the last minute overload, you’ll play your first Classic after three years and seven attempts and that could be a turning point in his stage as a madridista since, at the Decimocuarta in Cibeles, he promised that he would return to the level that everyone wants to see and he is on his way to proving it.
More complicated are the cases of Mariano y Odriozol, on the tightrope between staying in the club or looking for new horizons. In the case of the striker, he even aims to be a starter because, apart from Benzema, is the only pure ‘9’ of the expedition. the output of Jovic and the certainty that there will be no more signings reassures him, but he also knows that Ancelotti is still testing him and that a good role in the Clásico can give him points.
Likewise, who has it more difficult of the three cases is Odriozolthird choice of Carletto on the right side but, even so, he still has the bullet of the summer games to reverse his situation.
What is clear is that for all three, the Classic of Las Vegas It’s a double or nothing scenario. Heads or tails. After the final whistle it will be known if they have more chips than they bet or if they go bankrupt.
