The coach reduced the panic after the Englishman had to be substituted off.
Following Real Madrid’s 2-1 win at Braga in the Champions League, Carlo Ancelotti spoke to the media in the press room and he admitted that it became a little nervy towards the end, after the Portuguese side pulled a goal back. Analysing the win, he said: “We had to suffer a bit more in the second half, after it seemed the game was won. We lost some confidence after conceding the goal and we suffered quite a lot, but I think we did well defensively. Braga put a lot of players forward and it’s hard to defend, but we did well.”
