The El Heraldo news website has found the words Carlo Ancelotti, the Real Madrid coach, said during his angry conversation with his star, Rodrigo.
Ancelotti had made the decision to replace Rodrigo with his colleague Dani Ceballos following 56 minutes of the match once morest Villarreal had passed, that is, when the result indicated that Real Madrid trailed by two clean goals.
Ceballos proved his value in the round of 16 match of the King’s Cup, scoring the late goal that gave Real Madrid a 3-2 victory.
Rodrigo left the field angry, did not even shake hands with his coach, and went to sit directly, which cost him a reprimand.
Media reports claim that Ancelotti told the 22-year-old, “Hey! You have to salute me.”
According to “El Heraldo”, Rodrigo, in turn, responded to the Italian coach, saying, “Yes, I am sorry that I caused problems.”
