Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane held crunch talks with his players after defeat to Cadiz.
Marca says the French boss rounded up his squad to hold crisis talks ahead of this week's opening game in the Champions League.
The report adds the words "intensity" and "attitude" were used regularly as Zidane questioned his stars' display on home soil.
The same outlet also claimed some of the club's high-profile names, including Sergio Ramos, Toni Kroos and Luka Modric, were also keen to voice their displeasure at the performance.
The players and staff reportedly concurred with each other as to why they suffered the defeat and stressed the importance of playing with more intensity, with their next LaLiga game being the Clasico against Barcelona.
