Carlo Ancelotti before Real Madrid – Manchester City: “Get a small lead”

Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid coach, forward semi-final first leg Champions League against Manchester City on Tuesday: “The plan for tomorrow (Tuesday) is to play a complete match and try to get the best of ourselves physically, motivationally and technically, taking into account that we know that the decisive match will be the second. We want to take a small lead tomorrow and we’ll see if we can do that. A small advantage means a positive result for us and it also means feeling good about the game and not suffering too much.

It’s not just about results, we also have to feel good in the game, create problems for our opponents and if we are able to avoid problems, it can also be a small advantage. That’s what we’ll try to do tomorrow (Tuesday). It will be a match that will demand a lot from all of us, because it is normal for this to happen in the semi-finals of a competition like this. »
