Madrid president Florentino Perez is now faced with deciding whether it is worth keeping Solari until the end of the season, let alone beyond the summer. Real Madrid's Croatian midfielder Luka Modric reacts as he walks off the pitch at half-time during their Uefa Champions League round of 16 second leg match against Ajax at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium in Madrid on March 5, 2019. Hakim Ziyech and David Neres put them two up at half-time and Dusan Tadic made it three before Marco Asensio gave Madrid hope. The fans whistled at half-time and Madrid were no better after, creating chances but lacking composure and control. Madrid needed three in 24 minutes and then two in 20, as Asensio swept in Sergio Reguilon's cross to give them hope.
