Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti, for his part, recognized that Kylian Mbappé traverse “a difficult time“but stay”an exceptional player“who the club goes to”give love“.
“When you are a striker you want to score and have confidence. I think that for Mbappé, it’s a difficult moment. We’ll put up with him and give him love“, declared the Italian in the post-match conference.
“It could be a lack of confidence, perhaps. Sometimes there are times when things don’t go well. The idea is to do simple things, not to complicate your life.“added Ancelotti, bombarded with questions about Mbappé.
In any case, “he shouldn’t be blamed for missed penalties, people miss penalties, it happens a lot“, he defended. “You have to be patient with him, he is an exceptional player“.
Assailed by questions about Mbappé, Ancelotti also spoke about his team’s performance post-match.
“We had a difficult meeting. But we knew it. I think it’s the most complicated stadium in Europe, Liverpool are in good shape. But we were in the match until this penalty, then our level dropped. We defended well in the first part of the match, we could have benefited more from the counterattack (…) I liked the team, we competed well with Liverpool but they are the most complicated team to face For now. The result is fair, Liverpool deserved to win but we stood up to them.”
