Ancelotti reacts on time

Carlo Ancelotti It was the great signal for the defeat of Real Madrid against Athletic (1-0) that meant the goodbye of the white team of the Copa del Rey. The Italian coach was blamed for the game’s approach and, above all, for the changes or rather the non-changes in San Mamés.

Against Granada, the first part went along the same lines as the match in Bilbao. A Real Madrid flat, with little presence in attack and without taking command of the match. Something that caused the white fans not to hesitate to whistle the team.

Ancelotti, this time, did react on time and after the break he brought on Valverde that gave strength and verticality to Real Madrid. It was what the white team needed to break Granada’s defence. Real Madrid bottled up the Nasrid team and Ancelotti gave the team another twist by putting on the field Ceballos, Hazard and Jovic. Offensive changes to look for the victory that ended up coming with the goal of Marco Asensio.

Carlo Ancelotti he changed the game from the bench by bringing in offensive players. This time, the Italian was right and Real Madrid ended up winning the game.
