New evening to forget, Wednesday, for Real Madrid. If they were somewhat reassured last weekend, by quietly dominating Leganes in La Liga, the Champions League shock against Liverpool highlighted the Merengue’s shortcomings. Dominated, the Madrilenians ended up bending to lose 2-0 after seeing Kylian Mbappé miss a penalty.
Beaten for the third time in five Champions League matches, Real Madrid, only 24e in the ranking, going through a difficult pass to say the least. However, Carlo Ancelotti did not want to overwhelm his players, even believing that they had delivered a good performance on the Anfield pitch. “I think the team played a good match, we were competitive, we fought. At the moment, it’s the most complicated stadium to play in, they have great dynamics. We are disappointed with the defeat”he confided to the Canal microphone.
At least three weeks of absence
Carlo Ancelotti obviously did not want to overwhelm his troops. The latter do, it is true, have some extenuating circumstances. The fault is the numerous injuries that Real Madrid must deal with. While the attack is deprived of Vinicius and Rodrygo, the defensive sector must do without David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao or Aurélien Tchouameni.
And the Madrid infirmary received a new resident on Wednesday. Established in the midfield, Eduardo Camavinga was injured shortly before the hour mark. After a race, the French midfielder felt pain behind the race and immediately indicated to bench that he could not continue. Replaced by Dani Ceballos, the former Rennais suffers from a muscle injury and should be on the sidelines for at least three weeks, according to AS.
