Marca reports further: Eden Hazard opens Real Madrid account with curling effort from outside the area
A sensational first-half strike from Eden Hazard was enough to hand Real Madrid a 1-0 victory over Red Bull Salzburg in pre-season action on Wednesday night at the Red Bull Arena in Austria.
Hazard enjoyed his best performance in a Real Madrid shirt to date, capped by his right-footed rocket, but the sleepy second half put forth by Los Blancos will not have exactly pleased manager Zinedine Zidane.
There was definitely a different look to the Real starting eleven, as Zidane opted for a five-man backline that saw Eder Militao take up one of the centre-back positions, while Dani Carvajal and Marcelo played in the wing-back roles. Otherwise, it was the usual cast of characters, with Eden Hazard and Karim Benzema up top.
Los Blancos didn't have to wait too long for a goal, as a counter-attack ended with Hazard receiving a pass on the left from Benzema and the Belgian cut toward the middle of the pitch unleashing a bullet that seared the net for a 0-1 lead.
