A tense evening for Carlo Ancelotti during the Clasico on Saturday evening. Humiliated by FC Barcelona in great form, who won 4-0 at Santiago-Bernabeu, the Real Madrid coach exploded with anger towards the Barcelona staff.
At a press conference, Ancelotti explained that his irritation was not directly aimed at coach Hansi Flick, but at one of his assistants, whose behavior during the celebrations particularly annoyed the Italian. “He did not behave like a gentleman,” he lamented, adding that Flick shared his views on the incident.
Ancelotti defends Madrid performance despite scoreline
Despite the rout, Ancelotti stressed that the match remained balanced before errors and a lack of realism carried the Merengues away. “We had the chances to score but we lacked success,” he said, calling for people to forget the last 30 minutes.
A night to forget for Real Madrid, marked by Ancelotti’s frustration and criticism towards Kylian Mbappé, often trapped offside during his first Clasico.
