Premier League: Declan Rice, Guardiola’s most expensive setback
Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid was beaten by Xavi Hernandez’s Barcelona in the final of the Spanish Supercup. A defeat that already makes my Madridistas react, but that for the Spanish technician, is only a remix part that is due to the bad period of his team. At least this is what he said after the game.
Carlo Ancelotti was facing the press after his defeat in the final of the Supercup that puts an end to any illusion. The coach of Real Madrid has made a first assessment of the final against Barcelona and acknowledged that his team is not at its best at the microphone of Movistar Plus+ on the field of King Fahd Stadium after the medal ceremony.
Is this one of those defeats that can take its toll? We have to learn, it’s a difficult moment and that’s all. We have to do a lot of things. We knew before the game that the team was not at its best. We have a few things to improve. We will come back. It’s a blow, but we have to encourage ourselves for the game against Villarreal.
What are these shortcomings and what are the shortcomings of the team: “We made gifts on the first two goals. The game started evenly, without much rhythm. When the score opened up, they were more confident. The first thing we have to do is to avoid giving away, because we did the first two, and then play as a team. And to improve our condition”.
These are two very serious mistakes that cost a lot of money, and then a defensive mistake. How to correct this? By showing the mistakes we made. Against Valencia we showed something good defensively and today we made mistakes again. We have to work on this point.
