Ancelotti: Asensio told me he touched the ball but

“I don’t like to talk about this, but today I am talking about it. In the first position it is not a penalty because he does not touch the ball with his hand. I talked to him and he told me he touches his chest. The left hand was in a slightly strange position. He simply did not touch the ball with his hand. The other is more controversial. If the goalkeeper touches it with his hand, you can have an opinion, I won’t discuss it, but it surprises me. It was a very important moment in the match. The match was on the right track, we played great football, but later this situation leaves us two less points in the table

Did Real Madrid win because of the penalty kick

“I don’t know, I can’t say this. This decision affected the game. At this point in the season it is difficult to have a very high level of play. In that sense it was a tough match, but with a lot of effort I was on the right track

slack team

“We are not at the level of the other weeks, we have problems with the injured players … they were not able to train. In these difficult times you have to understand all this. The team is feeling a little tired and we know that. A lot and we have a great chance of finishing first in the group on Wednesday. The goal is to be the first in the second half and we have everything at hand

Difficulty controlling matches
“The matches are complicated. Having difficulty in a match is completely normal. It is not excellent. There are too many matches, too many, and we don’t have time to recover physically and mentally. I see now that everyone is suffering, they are not playing great football

Team trust

“I can say I have a strong team, but words are lost in the wind, we have to prove it on the pitch. We have two matches at home and away against Rayo, which are difficult, but we will respond well

grass case

“It is a problem they are trying to solve. I am not a defensive player. We are all worried about it and hopefully it will be resolved soon

Management before the World Cup

“We are making an objective assessment and those who did not play would not risk a useless injury at this time
