Carlo Ancelotti on International Break​ and Real Madrid’s Performance

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has expressed his concerns about the ​first international break of the ‍season after round 4 of the Spanish Football ⁤League.

Ancelotti stated that the international break is not ideal for the team, as it will result in the absence of key⁢ players,⁣ particularly those traveling to South America, who may ⁣struggle upon their ⁣return.

“I only hope that ‍nobody gets injured, because that is the biggest danger, and ⁢the pressure of⁤ the match is⁣ normal,”⁤ added the Italian coach.

Confidence in the Team’s Ability

Despite fluctuating results at the ⁢start of ​the season, ⁢with two draws against Mallorca and Las ⁣Palmas and two wins against Real Valladolid and Real⁣ Betis, ​Ancelotti seems confident in his side’s ability.

“We are not worried or disappointed, but we⁣ have great​ motivation to try to do better,” Ancelotti emphasized. “We⁤ got a well-deserved ⁢win ​against ‍Betis on Sunday evening to enter the international break with​ a positive atmosphere.”

Teamwork and Consistency

Ancelotti ‍highlighted that his‌ team lacks consistency, stating, “Sometimes, we lost matches‌ without justification, and I confirm⁣ that teamwork was – and will ⁤be – the key to success, but scoring goals is the end ‌of our problem.”

Kylian Mbappe’s Performance

Ancelotti also discussed Kylian Mbappe’s performance, who scored‌ twice against Betis to break his ​goal⁢ drought in the first three rounds of the ⁤league championship.

“We didn’t put any pressure on⁢ Mbappe to ‍score,” Ancelotti said. “He played a ‍good‌ match, and‌ worked as ​a team with his teammates, and ‌his team-mate⁣ Vinicius Junior coped wonderfully to let him take the penalty ⁢kick, so ⁣Mbappe scored a goal.‌ Second goal.”

“Scoring goals is important for‍ Mbappe, but what is more important is to evaluate the teamwork, where⁤ he performed better than in the‍ last match,” the ⁢Real​ Madrid coach concluded.
