Real Madrid remains confident despite missed chances against Inter Milan
Summary

Real Madrid players and coach Mourinho maintain there is no cause for concern regarding the team's attacking performance. Despite missing clear-cut opportunities during recent matches against Inter Milan and Real Betis, the coaching staff sees the generation of 15 chances in two outings as a positive foundation. The squad recently secured a 2-1 win over Inter Milan at the Santiago Bernabeu in the UEFA Champions League. While fans have expressed frustration with the lack of clinical finishing, the club attributes the struggle to a temporary cycle rather than a structural issue. Mourinho intends to continue with the current system, emphasizing that players need to improve their decision-making and composure in the final third. The internal consensus remains that the team is creating sufficient danger to score more frequently and that no changes to the current approach are necessary.
