Real Madrid was hot. Yet totally masters of their subject this Sunday afternoon, the Vinicius teammates went close to the disaster. Led 3-0, the Merengues saw the Celta de Vigo return to 3-2 to ten minutes from the term, and, without a large courtyard, it was on a draw that the two teams could have separated in the Bernabéu. While the Madrid will face FC Barcelona next Sunday, Carlo Ancelotti was questioned about this meeting, which will be decisive in the title race.
While the two Spanish ogres clashed last Saturday, the Italian explained that his troops were confident before this very important part, insisting on the importance of Kylian Mbappé: ” We will approach the match seriously, with confidence. Being there and being able to fight is something beautiful. In the cup, a week ago, we competed well and we were close to winning. The team is clear. Mbappé will be very important in this match. His trips can be decisive in the face of the advanced defensive line of Barcelona. The more movements it will, the better it will be for the team. While Real Madrid has only the liga to play, it will be absolutely necessary to leave with a success of Montjuïc next week.
