Two injuries which are added to the long packages of Dani Carvajal and Eder Militão in defense. But Real Madrid did not wish to recruit to face these absences.

A decision that surprised the Spanish press, but Carlo Ancelotti defended himself: “We lost two important players, we had not considered it because Alaba was ready and felt good. Nor had we considered Rüdiger's injury. It's an emergency and we have to hang on. Alaba will be back in 15-20 days, Rüdiger too. Jacobo (Ramón) returns, he can also make his contribution. What I have to think about is how to manage the emergency situation we know. We had it last year. We have to manage it properly. We did it last year. Young people will be able to show their quality ”he said. A risky bet.
