A great match by Asensio, in World Cup mode, classifies Real Madrid as first against Celtic
The first two goals for the white team started from plays in which the Spaniard, from the right wing, changed the rhythm. He was not the assistant of the shots that caused the hands of the players of the Scottish team.

A low pass to the second post, a leaked ball behind the defense, a backheel inside the area… Every ball that came out of his feet gave his teammates an advantage.
He stuck to the band and went towards the center to leave room for Carvajal’s raises and the internships of a Fede Valverde whose impetus prevented him from staying anchored in the center of the field.
A good performance that Asensio was also rewarded with a goal. Minute 51 and he moved away from the defenders and the goal to take advantage of a low center from Carvajal and make it 3-0 with an unstoppable left-footed shot to Harthouse brand.
Great game today from Asensio, goal included.
It is said when it is bad and it is said when it is good.Hopefully he maintains the level throughout the season, that he is another resource and that he can contribute a lot to the squad.
We’re going to need it to rotate.pic.twitter.com/60hX6zFgDS

Vinícius Jr. and Federico Valverde rounded off the victory with two great goals in which “El Halcón” had to do:

Asensio’s performance comes at a key moment for a footballer: just before a World Cup. After surprising Luis Enrique calling him in June 552 days after his last call with Spainthe Spaniard responded to confidence and, between said international break and the one in September, he distributed three assists in the four games he played.
However, his non-exit, and wanted, from Real Madrid at the end of the contract on June 30, 2023, made him lose prominence in Ancelotti’s plans at the start of the season. After confirming that he did not pack his bags in the summer, Rorygo and Valverde advanced him in the rotation.

Both were supported by a goalscoring explosion that was difficult to counteract, but Asensio always left details when he jumped onto the pitch; and this Wednesday he took advantage of his ownership to make it even more difficult for Ancelotti ahead of the two remaining games until the World Cup and easier for Luis Enrique.
The Spanish coach will no longer surprise if, except for surprise, names Marco Asensio in the always original videos in which he announces the calls.
