In the ninth round of La Liga, Valverde and Vinicius each scored a goal, while Carvajal was seriously injured and had to be substituted. Real Madrid eventually defeated Villarreal 2-0 at home. After the match, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti spoke to the media.
About Carvajal
“It looks like his knee injury is quite serious, and the team feels sad and worried. This kind of situation often happens due to tight schedules, and this time it’s one of our very important players who got hurt. He is very important to us because of his experience and sense of responsibility. I talked to him, he is very upset, but there is nothing we can do. We will wait for the medical evaluation and consider recovery. The doctors say he needs an examination; it’s a knee injury.”
“Sign a replacement for Carvajal? We have Lucas Vazquez, but now is not the time to discuss this issue. We will wait first, if the injury is really serious, we will manage the squad properly and see who can fill this position, I don’t want to discuss this.”
About Luka Modric
“Modric’s role has always been the same, he is a key player for the team, regardless of how much playing time he gets.”
Vinicius’ Injury
“Vinicius is stuck due to cervical spine issues, he needs to be examined.”
About Tactical Arrangements
“We discussed this this morning, in order to create space for Federico Valverde. We did well. We played with two holding midfielders, Camavinga and Valverde. They both performed well. Of course, Camavinga wasn’t at his best, he asked to be substituted because he was tired. This is normal, but he is very important to us.”
