Real Madrid Confidencial Dani Ceballos Points to the Culprit of Madrid's Qualification: 'You Can't Imagine'
The Utreran has pointed to the person responsible for the pass to the Champions League quarterfinals
Real Madrid's Knockout Against Atlético in the round of 16 hasn't been brilliant in either match. But they haven't been inferior to the Colchoneros at any moment. In fact, they have always been ahead on aggregate or at least have been tied.
But without a doubt, the performance of some players has been what allowed them to emerge victorious. Tchouaméni has been at a great level in the midfield and Asencio has provided a lot of security at the back. The great goals by Rodrygo and Brahim in the first leg, and Courtois's saves in the second leg have been among the highlights.
Although Dani Ceballos has pointed out another culprit for Real Madrid's qualification to the quarterfinals. It is Fede Valverde who has had to play as a right-back and has performed excellently. For this reason, the player from Utrera wanted to share his statements on the field at the end of the match.
He also did so by joining it with a clear message on his personal Twitter profile. "Honor to this player, you really can't imagine what he's doing" wrote Dani about Fede. The Uruguayan has once again been one of those who best exemplifies the values that Madridists want in their players.
An Emergency Solution That Seems to Stay for a Long Time
Fede Valverde has played as a pivot, as an interior, as a right winger, and now also as a full-back. He has demonstrated great versatility although he prefers to be in the midfield. But Ancelotti has turned to him due to Carvajal's absence and the doubts that Lucas Vázquez has conveyed.
Everything points to in the most important matches, it will be the Uruguayan who continues to play as a full-back. At least for the rest of the season and looking ahead to the next, things will return to their place. At least with Carvajal's return once he overcomes his injury.
Additionally, the signing of Alexander Arnold will also prevent Fede from having to be positioned in defense. But the truth is that he has performed at such a high level that he hasn't looked out of place. Ancelotti has found a great solution to a problem that was very dangerous.
