He confirmed that he made a Mistake when he set out his team against ATM but had to correct that in this match. The attacking dou of Rodrigo and Joselu was crucial and that was what was missing in the last match. Brahim Diaz has waited to have his opportunity to start today and he definitely backed that with a goal which he deserves, I just hope he doesn’t get pulled back to the bench to accommodate the return of Vinicius. A great game by Madrid and I think this season tittle will be interesting.
Ancelotti may realize that Real Madrid was playing too defensively against Atletico Madrid. They have too many center midfielders at that time, they only have Rodrygo as a pure attacker. I think the result can be different if Ancelotti put Joselu-Rodrygo-Brahim Diaz on the front line. These 3 players deserve to play as main attackers and they are supported by Bellingham-Kroos-Valverde in the midfield line. TBH, this formation that I expected on the match against Atletico Madrid.
I hope that Ancelotti will admit his mistakes and take better steps instead for the upcoming matches. If we look at the tactics of Ancelotti against Atlético Madrid, then there were quite weak tactics; there were many mistakes in the defense; and there was also a lack of confidence in the attack.
Ancelotti seems aware about his mistake. He changed the tactic and rotated some players in the last match (against Las Palmas). He knows that Real Madrid attacking line has a problem, it is not very offensively. He also realizes that he can rely on Bellingham only as the machine goal of Real Madrid. Regarding the problem on the defense line, it is quite complicated. Since Militao and Carvajal got injured, Real Madrid defense looks a bit weak. They actually needs a new defender to strengthen their defense.
