“Real Madrid’s history in this competition means a great deal for us and more than our opposition,” Carlo Ancelotti said in the media room at the Etihad Stadium before the last training session before the Champions League semi-final between Manchester City and Real Madrid (9 pm CET). That history, created over time, helps our athletes feel the weight of this shirt, which is a good weight. A good responsibility comes with this shirt.”

“Villarreal and Real Madrid are two clubs nobody expected to reach the semi-finals. We’re thrilled to be competing. Real Madrid will always battle and compete”.

It’s not over yet. The Bernabéu will decide. I’m not sure if I want three or two strikers. Rodrygo and Camavinga are doing well. They bring a lot of energy, and those are my doubts. It’s the same. Achieving the semi-finals is not enough for us. We can’t wait for the final. We want to get to the final since Real Madrid generally wins when they get there”.

Semi-final

“You must correctly control the game. The new goal-scoring regulations make everything more open, and there’s a combination of elation and concern in these games because we’re so close to reaching the final of the world’s premier club league. We’re used to that after some tough games in this Champions League. We’ve fought hard and won, and we’ll fight hard again tomorrow”.

injury Players

He is fine. Alaba is in doubt, as is Casemiro. We’ll see how tonight’s training goes. Not as much as Alaba, but Casemiro. Casemiro is nearly there. Not for this game, but for the next”.

Pressure to win LaLiga on Saturday?

“We’re not thinking about Saturday. We can win LaLiga at our stadium and will endeavor to do so. We’re thrilled to have won a significant competition a month early”.

Then there’s this game, which we’re very excited about. This is the type of game that experienced players want to prepare for and participate in. I don’t need to say much to get them ready. We work on our techniques, but I have an advantage. Our season isn’t through yet, but my job has been easy this year”.

Against Manchester City

“You’ll suffer if you’re not compact. Tomorrow’s game will be a defensive battle. It’s vital to defend well, be compact, and commit as a team. The city will have the ball at times, and we’ll have to defend and try to win it back. With a high, mid, or low press we can regain possession and use our quality to our advantage. You may do that by playing straight football, with one-on-one duels… Our setup isn’t a big secret”.
