After the game, the head coach of Galacticos Karlo Acholotti commented on the performance of his own team.

“I think that the arbiter of the match was done correctly when I stopped the game. Vinisius spoke from the referee, and he stopped the match and activated the protocol. He did everything right, it was a good decision.

After that, I removed from the game of Asensio for two reasons: his incident was hit by this incident and he had already had a yellow card at that time. So I preferred to remove it from the game.

Raul was in the locker room … You know, no one loves when the stadium shouts to him. So it affected him. I preferred to remove it, because his emotions could influence him in the course of the game.

As for his game to the right in defense, let’s look. Every game I have to choose someone else. For Raul, it was obviously the first time in this position, but I liked it.

Because he was well in defense. And we all know what can bring to our game Lucas, who spent a wonderful second half. Just as we know what can bring Valverde. Let’s see. But at the moment, fortunately, this position is quite well closed.

It is just as good that we begin to get some solidity in defense as a whole. Keeping a gate “dry” at such a stadium is great. Like the return of Alaba, which begins to enter the rhythm. The only thing that is a pity is the injury of Seballas, but you will not do anything.

How does he feel? He had muscle problems at the end of the match, so tomorrow he will be examined.

Today we were rotating, but the team was cohesive, compact and played very well in defense. It all looked solid. I think that we have all well, despite the rotation that we had.

Young players, Andrick in particular, made a big contribution, in the sense that he scored a fantastic goal from a fantastic show. Arda Guler worked very well in his position, helping a lot in the protective aspect. And we must be satisfied because it was an intense and competitive game against a rival who gave everything on the field. We were able to get a good result for the second match.

We had moments in the second half, but Real Sossiedad also pressed and had its moments. If we look at the game, it was generally good for us. It is always difficult to play here. But there is another second match where we will have to play at the same level. But today the team posted full, ” – said Italian specialist.

The match between the Madrid Real Madrid and the Basque Real Madrid will take place on April 1.
