Man with Midas touch

AFR Madrid
Just two matches into his reign and already a quickfire promise by new coach Wanderley Luxemburgo looks to be coming true at Real Madrid.
A day after taking over from stopgap Mariano Garcia Remon on December 30 Luxemburgo said that Real, struggling to impress on both the domestic and European fronts this season, would adopt more of a Brazilian approach.
And in the space of 10 days Real have been galvanised as they look to rein in a Barcelona side which looked as good as invinci-
ble in the first half of the campaign.
So far, the Luxemburgo record after Sunday's albeit less-than-clinical 3-0 derby win over Adetico Madrid reads minutes played 97, goals four, goals conceded none and, more importantly, six points in the bag.
And with Barca losing 3-0 at Villarreal, the mountain to climb that was a 12-point deficit three games ago has been trimmed to a more hill-like seven points.
The Brazilian approach is certainly rubbing off on Ronaldo, who slammed in two goals against Adetico and who looks back to his sharpest after an indifferent period during which it was England's Michael Owen
who was left to supply the goods -when given the chance.
Thejseven minutes worth of football which constituted Luxemburgo's first game was enough to secure a win against Real Sociedad courtesy of Zinedine Zidane's penalty, the "replay1' coming a month after a hoax bomb threat from armed Basque separatist group ETA forced the game to be abandoned.
Luxemburgo, Real's fifth coach in 18 months, is a mixture of realist - two years in charge of the Brazilian national side from 1998 to 2000 ended in the sack despite a Copa America success -and a romanticist who would like to win in sambastyle.
After seeing off Atletico by a margin of victory which flattered the nine-times European champions it was the realist who was on view.
"We had three chances and we scored three goals. I am happy with the result, though not so much with the performance."
The performance issue has refused to go away all season with the side scrapping for wins and rarely living up to its "galactic" billing.
"In the second half our rivals put us under pressure and could have levelled," Luxemburgo admitted.
But on the positive side, with five weeks to oil the machine before the arrival of Juventus on February 22 in the Champions League, Real now have 35 points from 18 games as they bear down on Barca, who were well beaten at Villarreal to stay stuck on 42.
z\nd also in the credit ledger is that Ronaldo is clearly thriving under Luxemburgo, having taken his season goal tally Sunday to 10.
"He's highly motivated and is on top of his game," enthused Luxemburgo.
Ronaldo had the final word, telling reporters: "You can already see a touch of the influence of Luxemburgo. Under him Real Madrid are more organised. He is a great coach."
