Carlo Ancelotti prepared carefully for his match against Mallorca, because he knows that they are an opponent who always makes things very difficult when they play at home.
The red and black team usually plays with great intensity, even reaching the limit in some behaviors that cause disagreements, and this is something that has angered Vinicius on more than one occasion, and he did not hesitate to reprimand his rivals for it.
For this reason, the Italian coach wanted to speak seriously with Vinicius, Bellingham and Mbappé and warned them of the provocations and kicks that they could be exposed to in the match, so that they are alert and do not enter into arguments with the opponent’s players, because they could end up being sent off.
“They cannot take you out of the game, not with interventions, not with words, not with violent play… I want you to focus on playing football only,” is what the Italian coach told them in the last few hours.
The three seem ready for the match and are expected to start the match alongside the rest of their teammates who started in the European Super Cup final.
Real Madrid are clearly the favourites to take the three points, but in this type of match, where there is a lot of tension and pressure in the atmosphere, anything can happen.
