After two consecutive defeats against Valence and Arsenal, it was important for Real Madrid to win in Alavés on Sunday, despite the expulsion of Kylian Mbappé, the only goal of the meeting in Mendizorroza being signed Eduardo Camavonga.

Davide Ancelotti replaced Carlo, suspended for accumulation of yellow cards in liga, and, according to Marca, he gave his opinion.

“This victory gives us confidence. We knew it would not be easy, what happened during the match complicated the task a bit, but this victory gives us confidence for what we want next Wednesday. »»

“We are going to try our luck in Liga and in the Champions League. We know that we must deserve it, that it is not enough to have our level and that we must do certain things well. But everyone is convinced that we are going to try our luck in Liga and in the Champions League. »» Ancelotti also commented on the red card received by Mbappé in the first period.

“I didn't tell him afterwards. Kylian is not a violent boy, it is a boy who asked for forgiveness and who is aware of what he did. It is a light red card and he paid the consequences. The many little mistakes he suffered pushed him to react like this, which is not the right way to do, I do not justify it, but that's what happened. »»

Ancelotti also mentioned Dani Ceballos, who made his return with Real Madrid after six weeks of absence.

“Dani trained well, he was completely available, but his replacement was a little too much to waste time. The match was crazy and we didn't want that in the end. He is a player who has done good performances this season and he will help us on Wednesday, whether he is a holder or not. »»
