After the ‘crazy’ success of real Madrid he is new Borussia Dortmund (4-2), Carlo Ancelotti spoke to the media in the Santiago Bernabéu press room and tried to analyze what was a very intense match that, despite the defeat, allowed us to see a team that going through a difficult moment.
“After the break we changed the system and the team was more intense. In the first half we were more timid and it was quite clear what we had to do and the team did very well, put more intensity into it. It was the best second half for the team.”
Role of Vinicius
“What I can say about Vinicius is that he rarely does a second half like he did. He had extraordinary energy and character. He will win the Ballon d’Or for what he did last year, not for if what happened tonight. “It will help him for the next Ballon d’Or.”
Part one and part two
“We were very timid and this team showed that it can have more energy.”
Locker room message
“I told them that we have to think about the small details: to press hard, not to miss a pass, to win duels… because when you reach that, the dynamics of the game can change and that what happened when we scored the first goal.”
tactical system
“The system is not the most important thing. The most important thing is the attitude the players put in. If we had played 4-4-2 in the first half it would have been the same.”
Feeling after success
“We have to learn from everything that happened in the game. The second half taught us a lot and could be a ‘key’ moment in our season”
