The crack in Zidane's wall
Real Madrid's grand triumph last season, the LaLiga Santander title, was based upon a solid defensive foundation, but this season cracks in that wall are beginning to appear.
In 2019/20, Los Blancos conceded just 25 league goals, compared with 46 the year before and 44 the year before that.
So impressive was this record that you have to go all the way back to 1987/88 to find a comparison in Real Madrid's history.
However, this campaign has already seen Zinedine Zidane's side let in 16 goals in 19 games, giving a projection of around 40 for the season.
It's worse than that, though, as the stats reveal something even more concerning: Real Madrid's opponents are needing fewer shots to score against them this season than last.
Opposition teams are finding the back of Thibaut Courtois' net once every 2.9 shots on target, down from 3.93 in 2019/20 and a long way from Zidane's best in 2015/16 of 4.41.
For all shots the numbers are equally as alarming, with Los Blancos conceding a goal for every 8.5 shots in all competition

Zidane The Biography by Jean Philippe and Patrick Fort
Brief Summary
Get inside the mind of football’s most enigmatic icon
‘Zidane is the master’ Pele
One of modern football’s most brilliant players – and one of its most iconic and mysterious figures – Zinedine Zidane’s football career is the stuff of legend. A World Cup-winner with France, he became the world’s most expensive player in 2001 when he moved from Juventus to Real Madrid for £46million, where his exceptional talent earned him a reputation as one of the greatest players of all-time. His playing career concluded explosively when he retired after being sent off for head-butting Marco Materazzi in the 2006 World Cup final.
But his football career was far from over. After a spell coaching in Spain, he was appointed manager of Real Madrid in 2015 and immediately demonstrated that his skill as a manager matched his talent on the pitch, leading the team to successive Champions League victories and establishing him as one of the new managerial greats.
