"It keeps me awake if I eat too much dinner tonight". Ancelotti is calm ahead of Man City battle
Real Madrid's head coach Carlo Ancelotti shared his expectations for the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Manchester City.
The Italian specialist noted that he is absolutely calm before the match, as he is confident in his team.
"It keeps me awake if I eat too much dinner tonight. I have a lot of confidence in my team and we are very, very good. Nothing keeps me awake.
Haaland? If we talk about individuals, he continues to be one of Manchester City's most dangerous players. The fact that he did not appear in the first leg is a credit to the defense, but he can be the best center forward in the world and will always be dangerous.
Bellingham's drop in goals? I ask everyone to work for the team and that means commitment and attitude. In the first round he scored many goals, something that no one expected. But in general, I ask to work for the team. Vinicius, Rodrygo, him... we are the team with the least goals scored in the League and that reflects that the collective work is being very good. The more quality players work, the more commitment we will have.” said Anchelotti AS.
Real will play away against Manchester City on Wednesday, April 17th. In the first leg, the teams played out an exciting draw - 3:3.
