There is no doubt that Carlo Ancelotti knows the Real Madrid squad very well and that, in the first months after his return, he is getting the team to 'respond' ... but one detail could take its toll

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Carlo Ancelotti, in his first stage in the Real Madrid and in what it goes of second, has showed to be a trainer that 'house' with his approach and also with his players titled. What works does not touch for Carletto and this, probably, 'justify' that the White House to day of today was leader of LaLiga Santander and of his group in the Champions League, but can happen him bill to average and long term... Because it resists too much to the changes.

Against the Sheriff, this Wednesday by the penultimate day of the phase of groups of the League of Champions, the Real Madrid took out his alignment more headline and full of 'cracks'. Players like David Praises, Toni Kroos, Casemiro, Luka Modric, Karim Benzema or Vinícius Jr did not be missing to the appointment, conscious that the team of Moldavia could surprise as it did it weeks before in Santiago Bernabéu. For Ancelotti meant a final and no 'saved' at all.

The case is that the Madrid was very upper and to the 55 minutes closed his party with a conclusive 0-3, thanks to the goals of David Praises, Toni Kroos and Karim Benzema. The party was more than sentenced and were minimum (by not saying that any) that the Sheriff achieved to drill the goal of Thibaut Courtois that, as it accustoms, was very concentrated and attentive to the few requirements that had. With this panorma, very 'simple' for the picture madridista, the stage was so that the 'cracks' rested, thinking in the importantísimo split against the Seville.

However, the situation did not go like this. And they could pay the consequences. Ancelotti Did not give rest to anybody and, instead of doing the changes to the hour of party, expected too much; something that repeats all the weeks without exception. In fact, 'Carletto' was forced to substitute to Praise because it suffered annoyances (and has a sprain) to the 64', when it was likely to have it replaced ten minutes before. Nacho Fernández went in to accompany to Militao and Lucas Vázquez and Marcelo also went in in this window of changes.

Casemiro And Rodrygo also were replaced, but Karim Benzema or Vinícius Jr did not go it and played, again, ninety minutes. They are two key players and probably the engine of the Real Madrid in the attack... And it remains the feeling that Ancelotti is not them 'taking care' as it would have to do it, because an injury of any one of the two would be a true blow for the team in these moments, in which have a calendar aterrador.

The Madrid, no rest and with some key weeks

It praises it is doubt for the party against the Seville (Sunday, 21:00 hours), in an important party so that the Real Madrid was still in the highest of the classification. And it is that the ones of Carlo Ancelotti confront to a frantic calendar in which they do not have options to fail to follow dominating the classification of the League and also seal his pass to the eighth of final with the first place of the group.

After the Seville, the Wednesday 1 the White House will receive to the Athletic of Bilbao (21:00 hours) and the following Saturday will visit Anoeta to confront to the Real Sociedad in the same schedule. The Tuesday afterwards, will receive to the Inter of Milan in the Bernabéu to close the phase of groups and the frantic week will finish it with a derbi Madrilenian, also in his stadium (Saturday 12, to the 21h).
