Real Madrid lost 0-4 to Paris Saint-Germain in the club's World Cup semi-finals, which not only disappointed the fans, but also pushed the conflict between coach Alonso and club chairman Florentino to the forefront. This crushing defeat makes people ask: Is this "Galaxy Battleship" deviating from its course?

The hidden worries behind the disastrous defeat
Looking back at Real Madrid's journey in this club World Cup, although they have had several victories, the disastrous defeat in the semi-finals undoubtedly left the efforts of the whole season in vain. Florentino said high-profilely before the game: "This is a brand new season, and we are ready for all challenges." However, facing Paris Saint-Germain's sharp attack, Real Madrid seemed powerless.
What is even more worrying is that after Real Madrid's crushing defeat, they also exposed not only tactical issues, but also differences of opinions between the management and the coaching staff. Florentino has made drastic reforms in the past season, introduced several new players, and chose Alonso to replace Ancelotti, intending to open a new chapter in the team. However, this game shows that the so-called "new chapter" may not be as expected.
Alonso's tactics and helplessness
As a new coach, Alonso is obviously still looking for his own tactical style. However, in this semi-final, his tactical choices were questioned. Faced with the strong firepower of Paris Saint-Germain, Alonso's choice in the starting lineup seemed conservative, and his adjustment to the situation in the game was also significantly lagging behind.
What is more noticeable is Alonso's remarks at the post-match press conference. He said: "This game is not the beginning of the new season, but the end of last season." This sentence not only surprised the outside world, but also was considered to excuse the crushing defeat. After all, he never mentioned a similar point in the previous games.
Alonso's remarks are in sharp contrast to Florentino's season positioning. The chairman sees the club's World Cup as a major start to the new season, while Alonso tries to blame his ex Ancelotti. This difference in position undoubtedly poses hidden dangers for the future cooperation between the two.
Florentino's reaction and position
As the helmsman of Real Madrid, Florentino naturally could not accept such a crushing defeat. He did not publicly criticize Alonso after the game, but from his attitude comparison before and after the game, it is not difficult to see his dissatisfaction. Florentino has always been known for his "iron-fisted management", and his requirements for the team have always been "immediate".
In Florentino's plan, Alonso's task is not only to lead the team to win games, but also to prove his coaching ability through his results. However, the club's World Cup devastation clearly challenged the president's patience. In the future, if Alonso cannot find a way to win as soon as possible, his coaching position may be in danger.
Where is the way ahead?
In the next new season, Real Madrid will usher in their first game against Osasuna on August 19. For Alonso, this will be a whole new beginning and an opportunity that must be seized. He needs to prove himself with his grades and win the trust of the president and fans again.
For Real Madrid, the team's background and strength are unquestionable, but how to reach an internal consensus and how to keep the coach and management consistent in their goals will be the key to determining whether this Galaxy battleship can return to the top.
Conclusion
The disastrous defeat brought not only a lesson, but also a mirror that reflected the current problems of Real Madrid. From Alonso's tactics to Florentino's management, what this giant team needs is not only to adjust tactics, but also to straighten out internal relations. For Real Madrid fans, what they expect is not a team that is constantly quarreling, but a "Galaxy Battleship" that can always stand at the peak of victory.
