Real Madrid Confidencial Ancelotti Warns: The Step Before Beating Arsenal, Without It There Will Be No Comeback
The coach has sent a strong message to the squad for the coming days
At Real Madrid, everyone is already talking about a comeback and Wednesday's match in the Champions League. At least among the fans, since within the club there is a very different discourse. Ancelotti has issued a warning about what needs to happen first to beat Arsenal.
Before that match, Real Madrid faces Alavés this Sunday in Matchday 31 of La Liga. We are in the final stretch of the championship and they are still in the fight for the title. In fact, the Madridists are not giving up on winning it since they are only 4 points from the lead.
This has led Ancelotti to insist on 'forgetting' about Arsenal to focus on the duel at Mendizorroza. "There is no comeback without beating Alavés," is the coach's warning to the players at Valdebebas. This is what journalist José Félix Díaz has announced about the current sentiment within the club.
During the recent training sessions, they have set aside the motivation for the match against Arsenal. They have only focused on thoroughly preparing for their visit to Alavés this Sunday. A challenging match since the Vitorians are fighting to avoid relegation.
Real Madrid Knows the Risk of Losing All Titles
If there is a club where confidence in a comeback exists, it is Real Madrid, especially in the Champions League. However, they are also aware that it is complicated and they can't put all their efforts into Arsenal. Especially because they still have many options in La Liga.
There are eight matchdays ahead and they are only 4 points behind Barça at the moment. Additionally, in May, El Clásico will be played at Montjuïc, which could end up being decisive. But for that, they need to win all their matches to keep putting pressure on the blaugranas.
That's why they are giving all the importance to the match against Alavés this Sunday. A slip-up could end up being definitive in the fight to win La Liga. And that would leave everything in the hands of a comeback against Arsenal, which will not be easy, although it is not impossible.
