Risking few headlines
Ancelotti this time risked fewer headlines than ever, but lo and behold, Camavinga came out limping , the patch man for the left back, also an enthusiastic and successful midfielder when the game took him to that area. It was an absurd tantarantán of Iglesias, already near the end of the game. The action forced to rectify a change, as Asensio was leaving for Odriozola to enter, but the one who had to leave was the Frenchman with a pitiful step that worried the fans, and more so when he was seen following the end of the game from the bench with ice on the knee. But already in the changing rooms, Ancelotti issued words of calm.
Goal from Asensio
That and the goal from Asensio, who has a shot with his left foot like there will be no more than half a dozen in world football, was what left the game. This time his shot, aimed at the opposite squad, found a body that altered his trajectory making it impossible even for the excellent goalkeeper Soria, who on another occasion took a magnificent header from Asensio himself. The goal came midway through the second half, when Ancelotti had been bringing out important people (Kroos, Modric, Vinicius…) in search of a victory that he did not want to miss. He wants to finish La Liga decently, if only out of sheer bullfighting shame.
