Real Madrid are not a defensive team - Benitez


Real Madrid's new coach Rafa Benitez has dismissed suggestions he has imposed a defensive playing style on the team after they were held to a goalless draw in their opening La Liga match at promoted Sporting Gijon last weekend. 
"Generating these debates after every match surprises me. We drew 0-0 and people talk about a defensive team. Which team had the most shots last weekend? It was Real Madrid. If having more shots than your opponent is being defensive then I am lost. A draw is not defensive. It's a match without the ability to hit the target," Benitez told reporters
