Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti commented on the 4-1 victory over Villarreal in the 17th round of the Spanish league. The coach also spoke about David Alaba's cruciate ligament tear.
"We are very upset because this is the third injury of this kind in the last four months. I don't remember this happening in my coaching experience. It's good that the team is clearly demonstrating that they can overcome this.
Now we have an option with Chuameni in the centre of defence. It's an emergency situation, but I think he will be able to play there properly.
In the end, I think we are doing very well. It was one of the best games, maybe the best in terms of defensive performance," Ancelotti was quoted as saying by the Real Madrid press service.
