Coach Ancelotti: "Real Madrid has forgotten that Vinicius missed the Golden Ball"

(Dan Tri) - Coach Carlo Ancelotti shares about the situation of Real Madrid as well as star Vinicius before the match with AC Milan in the UEFA Champions League tonight.

Real Madrid will return to the UEFA Champions League arena to welcome AC Milan in the fourth match of the group stage on November 6. Coach Ancelotti's team has not played for 9 days since the 0-4 loss to Barcelona on October 27, due to the storm and flood situation in Spain.

Before the match against AC Milan, coach Ancelotti mentioned Vinicius' emotions after knowing he could not win the 2024 Ballon d'Or: "It's done and now we should congratulate the winner.

For me, Real Madrid has had its own Ballon d'Or award since last June, which is the 2023-2024 Champions League title.

It's been a difficult week, not because of what happened with the Ballon d'Or or the Clasico. We are sad and sorry for what is happening in Spain."

Spain has been hit by an unprecedented natural disaster, with devastating floods on October 30 that killed more than 200 people and caused significant damage. Several La Liga matches were postponed after the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) rescheduled all matches in the city of Valencia.

Coach Ancelotti said matches in Spain should be postponed at the moment, because people here no longer have the mind to care about football.

"Football is a party and you can only celebrate and party when you and everyone is healthy. When everyone has problems, there should be no party. For me, all matches in Spain should be postponed because it is the least important thing in life.

But we are not the ones who make the decisions... We have to follow the instructions of those responsible. I don't want to talk about football today," coach Ancelotti shared.

The Italian strategist added: "Facing AC Milan is special, my emotions right now are mixed. But we will try to beat them."

Coach Ancelotti led AC Milan from 2001 to 2009 and won 8 titles with the team, including 2 Champions League titles. Real Madrid will host AC Milan in the 4th match of the UEFA Champions League group stage at Bernabeu Stadium (Spain) at 03:00 on November 6.
