Carlo Ancelotti’s message to Real Madrid players after Athletic Club setback – report

Real Madrid’s recent defeat at San Mames was a major setback, halting their positive momentum in La Liga and leaving them in a difficult position.

The loss came after a promising run, where the team had managed to close the gap on Barcelona at the top of the league with three wins.

However, this defeat, a result of both tactical missteps and individual errors, has left Carlo Ancelotti’s side with a lot to reflect on.

Ancelotti’s men were unable to solve the challenge posed by Ernesto Valverde’s Athletic Club, who executed their game plan to perfection.

Two protagonists pointed out

Real Madrid’s performance was lackluster, with two players at the heart of the disappointment: Kylian Mbappe and Federico Valverde.

Mbappe, who has often been a key figure, failed to deliver again and missed a crucial penalty. His struggle in recent games, including a similar miss at Anfield, has raised concerns about his consistency.

Meanwhile, Valverde, who is usually reliable, made a costly mistake that directly led to Athletic Club’s winning goal. His error in the defensive phase proved to be the difference-maker in this match.

Despite their poor performances, both players took to social media to apologise, but the defeat could have far-reaching consequences.

Message from Carlo Ancelotti

Not only does this affect Real Madrid’s title aspirations, but it may also have an impact on the future of Carlo Ancelotti.

The pressure on the manager continues to build, with many questioning whether his tactics and team selections are still the right fit for the club.

However, Ancelotti has maintained a positive outlook, urging his team to remain focused and resilient. After the loss, the manager’s message to his players was clear: although they are down, they are far from out.

“We are on the ground, but from here we will rise. We are still alive in all competitions,” said the manager as revealed by El Chiringuito TV.

He reminded them that Real Madrid is still alive in all competitions and that they can rise from this setback.

For Ancelotti, the key now will be to turn the page quickly and guide his players back to winning ways, with a focus on their next challenges ahead.
