Real Madrid: Carlo Ancelotti responds to Diego Simeone

Last weekend was marked by a heated derby between Atlético de Madrid and Real Madrid. The match was interrupted due to excesses in the stands, while Diego Simeone and the Colchoneros accused Thibaut Courtois of being at the origin of these problems after provoking the Atlético supporters and demanded sanctions against the Belgian doorman. Asked about this, Carlo Ancelotti explained that dwelling on the case of Courtois was not really the right answer to give.

“I respect everyone’s opinion. The problem is clear. There were acts of violence during the match and violent people cannot be part of football or society. I try to respect all opinions, but everyone saw what happened. And that’s all it means: violent people should not be in football or in society. To talk about other things is to miss the point. The bottom line is that violent people cannot be in football. Not at Atleti, in any stadium. Football doesn’t need them. Let them go somewhere else, somewhere that is not dangerous. I speak in general. Whether it’s a violent person from Madrid, Barça, Atleti, Villarreal, it doesn’t matter. Let the violent leave us alone. I am respectful and I respond, but responding to Courtois’ behavior, when we shouted “fuck you” at him during the match, is to deflect the shot. That’s all there is to do.”he confided at a press conference.
