Four Metropolitano full-backs who lift the run-run at Real Madrid with Carlo Ancelotti | Relief
“I don’t regret it”– Ancelotti said at a press conference after the Madrid derby. He specifically answered the question about the changes he made in the last minutes of the match against Atlético Madrid, which were pointed out to him. Three substitutions: Lucas Vazquez for Modric in the 86th minute, Endrik for Vinicius in the 87th minute and Fran Garcia for Rodrigo in the 90th minute.
The Italian coach of Real Madrid defended his decision with a serious but calm gesture.. He did not utter the phrase “mea culpa” as on other occasions and justified his movements on the bench to defend the result. However, they pushed their team into a corner in the final stretch of the match until the draw was achieved in the 95th minute.
The merengue team stopped intimidating the Rodiblancos and completed the derby with four players on the Metropolitano grass. Ancelotti was reinforced by a double lane on each flank. Carvajal and Lucas Vazquez on the right, Mendy and Fran Garcia on the left. And it didn’t work.
The start of the season for Real was difficult. A new drawing, a new star and a plague of injuries which has become common in the white club lately. Ancelotti has always shown that he recovers from any situation, but This year he still hasn’t found the key. His team still can’t find a good game, Modric is again their solution in everything and they have already had three draws away from the Bernabeu.
Conversation about Ancelotti in Valdebebas
And in Valdebebas, the Runrun towers over the Carletto. Real Madrid’s reputable voices believe that the current squad could be used much better.both at the playing level and in the prominent figures of some figures such as Arda Güler. The idea has been coming for a long time, and the current 2024-2025 season confirms it. His management of the rotation also matters, as it did in the last home league game against Alaves, which ended with Mbappe suffering from muscle problems..
Internally, they respect Ancelotti’s legacy, his way of representing Real Madrid and his impeccable titles and talents.Despite this, he is also a doubt, although at this stage of the season there is no concern.
They believe that their coach will consolidate the eleven and the squad will begin to adjust the mechanisms that last year he finished switching on immediately after the defeat at the Metropolitano.. At the moment, Real Madrid are still unbeaten and there is no warning sign, but the run-run with Ancelotti does not disappear at the beginning of the season.
