30 November 2025
Team news and lineup
The Real Madrid boss Xabi Alonso has revealed the official squad from which he will pick the starting XI for Sunday’s La Liga clash with Girona in round 14.
Injuries and selections
The selection includes Brazilian Militao, the young Argentine Mastantuono, and German Rudiger, while captain Dani Carvajal and several other players are sidelined by injuries.
Starting XI for Girona
Goalkeepers: Courtois, Lunin, Mestari.
Defence: Militao, Arnold, Carreras, Fran Garcia, Rudiger, Mendy.
Midfield: Bellingham, Camavinga, Valverde, Tchouaméni, Guler, Ceballos.
Attack: Vinícius Júnior, Endrick, Mbappé, Rodrygo Goes, Gonzalo García, Ibrahim Díaz, Mastantuono.
Real Madrid currently sit second in the La Liga table on 32 points, behind Barcelona’s 34 after Barca’s late comeback to beat Deportivo Alavés 3-1 on Saturday.
Punchline 1: Alonso’s lineup is sharper than a captain’s armband—good luck defending that one.
Punchline 2: If this team were a joke, it would be a clean sheet with a side of goals.
