After Atlético Madrid vs. Real Madrid: CARLO ANCELOTTI on…
… the 3-1 defeat once morest Atlético Madrid and the question regarding the system change: “I haven’t changed anything. We played with the diamond once more, with (Luka) Modrić in the middle, and (Jude) Bellingham and Rodrygo (Goes) at the top. What’s happened? We didn’t start the game well, didn’t defend well and were very weak in our half. We weren’t strong and when they were 2-0 up, they played their game, defended well and switched quickly. They were simply better than us today. The fact that they were 2-0 up ultimately made the difference.”
… the problem of conceding early goals: “We have already talked regarding this topic and we need to continue talking regarding it. The opponent took the lead four times and we came back three times. We also came close to coming back in this game, but when the score was 3-1, the game was over. We were good at the end of the first half, but the third goal we conceded was too much to make up for.”
… Joselu, who remained on the bench for the time being: “I wanted to achieve more with a midfielder so that we had more control of the ball. The position of Bellingham hasn’t changed offensively, he just needed to step up a little bit further. But that wasn’t the problem. It was the defensive performance, the defensive weakness that we didn’t have in previous games. We conceded three goals in all the games and three in just one game today. It wasn’t a good evening defensively, but I don’t want to talk regarding individual performances. The team was not compact, especially in the first half, and Atlético took advantage of that.”
… Eduardo Camavinga’s canceled goal to make it 2-2: “I didn’t see that. I was told that (Antonio) Rüdiger was offside, but I haven’t looked at it yet.”
… the lack of attention on defense when conceding goals: “The three goals we conceded were all the same. They opened up the center and we weren’t good at the back. Normally in such a moment the left defender or a central defender moves forward to close the space and be more compact. But we weren’t compact today when we conceded three goals.”
… the offensive problem that exists at the same time: “Atlético is not only one of the strongest defensive teams in Spain. They are very well organized and are very good and strong in duels. It’s not easy to find rooms, we tried. We lacked a bit of effectiveness from the outside. But it was still more of a defensive problem than an offensive one.”

… the line-up of Luka Modrić and Toni Kroos: “As I said, I wanted a little more control in midfield. I also wanted to give Tchouaméni a break, who has played a lot of games so far and has also played with the national team.”
… Modrić’s performance: “We will not blame any individual player and doing that with Modrić seems a bit excessive to me. He didn’t play as well as the others. After that, I increased the offense to become stronger in the center when I saw that we were losing.”
… the question of whether he would have changed anything regarding the line-up followingwards: “That’s a good question. Maybe I might have done it better. If the team doesn’t do what it’s supposed to, then I’m responsible for it. But that’s not a problem, I have thick skin. But taking responsibility is the least. It’s my fault.”
…the accusation of having experimented in the derby of all places: “The fact that we didn’t do well today is not the fault of the system, that won’t change. It is a defeat that can be an opportunity for us to make things better. We are sad and angry, just like we always are when we lose. But we have done very well up to this point and will continue to do so keep doing that.”
… the question of whether the system is more damaging to Rodrygo and Vinícius Júnior: “Vinícius mightn’t score today, like he hasn’t in the last two or three games. Rodrygo tried, and today he was dangerous in some situations. When we have little space, it’s much harder for everyone. We have lacked a bit of effectiveness so far, but we have won six out of seven games and scored.”
