The Premier League team won a remarkable 3-0 victory in the first leg at the Emirates Stadium, leaving the blanks about to fail in their attempt to keep their title and win the competition for the 16th time.
According to Diario As, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti gave his 90-minute analysis in an post-match interview with Movistar. He praised his team's performance until the first goal, when she collapsed.
“For an hour, the team was good, then we paid dearly their two goals on set kicks. Mentally, we did not have the right state of mind in the second half. It is a difficult defeat, especially because of our lack of strategy in the second half. And because in the first period, we played rather well. The team has dropped mentally and failed to react. Until then, it was balanced. There was intensity. They did not look much between the lines, until they scored the second goal. »»
