Ancelotti have issues a stern warning to Chelsea ahead of the Champion League clash “Here is what he said”
Real Madrid will never be a pushover against Chelsea in the UCL, despite the fact that they lost to Villareal yesterday, and we will see why sooner rather than later.
In response to the defeat, Ancelotti has issued a strong warning to Chelsea, telling them to temper their expectations since the game would not be simple.
The Italian watched as Villarreal defeated Real Madrid thanks to goals from Jose Luis Morales and a brace from Samuel Chukwueze.
“With regard to the Champions League, this defeat [Real Madrid’s 3-2 loss to Villarreal] won’t affect our confidence for Wednesday’s game [against Chelsea] , which will be different,” Ancelotti said at his post-match press conference.
“I may use the same eleven from Camp Nou. Today I rotated a lot of players because the match against Barcelona took a lot out of us physically and mentally,” he added.
The kick-off time for the Champions League tie is 8 pm.
