Ancelotti explains Mbappé's blood blow: "I think ..."

Despite a precious victory for Real Madrid over the Alavés lawn, the meeting was marked by the expulsion of Kylian Mbappé. In place of Carlo Ancelotti, Davide Ancelotti spoke to defend his player.

Kylian Mbappé experienced a contrasting afternoon this Sunday when traveling from Real Madrid in the Lance of Deportivo Alavés. Despite the victory of the Merengue, acquired thanks to an achievement by Eduardo Camavonga, the Madrid team was however forced to play more than half an hour. The reason? The expulsion of the tricolor striker after a sole on Antonio Blanco in the 38th minute.

In the second half, the Basque training experienced the same fate, after a similar fault by Manu Sanchez on Vinicius Jr in the 70th. After the meeting, Davide Ancelotti, at the head of the Madrid team in the absence of his father Carlo Ancelotti, suspended, returned to the gesture of the captain of the Blues.

Suspension to come for Mbappé, but the online clasico of sight

“Kylian is not a violent boy, he asked for forgiveness”, underlined the Italian technician. “He is aware of his error. His gesture deserves a red card, it is clear and he suffered the consequences. I think the many little mistakes he suffered made it react that way. It is not the right way to react and I am not justifying what he did. But I think that is the explanation. »»

According to the Spanish press, Mbappé could receive a maximum suspension of three games. Le Bondynois should therefore take part in the next shock against FC Barcelona, ​​in the King Cup final on April 26.
