Ancelotti does not make a drama of it

Carlo Ancelotti was determined to move on after his Real Madrid side’s 1-1 draw at Atlético Madrid.

During a very controversial evening at the Estadio Metropolitano, Ancelotti saw his team concede a goal late in the match. Eder Militao’s second-half goal sparked chaos in the stands as the match was suspended following unrest between fans of the Atlético Madrid ultras.

Despite this unprecedented measure of suspending play, Real Madrid appeared to hold on in the final minutes, before Angel Correa equalized in the 95th minute. “We were very close to winning. But he is our rival. It can happen,” he declared at the end of regulation time.

A good point nonetheless

“This can be a good point for the future, considering what happened here last season. All we had to do was defend, and we didn’t do that. It happens. »

Ancelotti’s message of wanting to move on quickly will resonate with his players as they face two key matches before the October international break. The reigning European champions travel to Lille for their second Champions League match of the season in midweek before hosting Villarreal next weekend.
