Real Madrid are imperial this season in La Liga. Solid leaders, the Merengues had crushed Girona, their runner-up, last week and faced their Madrid neighbor Rayo Vallecano this Sunday afternoon. With a decimated and reshuffled squad after a great midweek battle in Leipzig, the most successful club in the Champions League stalled this Sunday (1-1). Still six points ahead of their Catalan pursuer, the residents of the Santiago-Bernabeu can nevertheless harbor some regrets. Some Spanish journalists believe that the departure of Kylian Mbappé from PSG and his imminent arrival in the Iberian capital, which we revealed to you exclusively on January 7, could have disrupted Real’s performance.
A theory quickly brushed aside by Carlo Ancelotti, the Madrid coach, in a post-match press conference: “What can I say. It doesn’t matter, you have to win all the matches, but to win the League it is important that the matches you cannot win, you do not lose. Sometimes there are draws that hurt a little, but in the end it can be a positive step to help us win the championship. Decentralized by Mbappé? When have we not been focused? We are always focused and today it was again. There is nothing negative to say about this team this season.» That’s what it says!
