In a few hours, the second Cl\u00e1sico of the season will take place. Given the importance of the match, Real Madrid president Florentino P\u00e9rez has made a special request to the team.<\/p>\n
Real Madrid will be playing their third final of the season, as they look to secure another title after winning the European Super Cup and the Intercontinental Cup. However, the match will not be easy, as they face Barcelona. This is the second Cl\u00e1sico of the season, and with the events that unfolded at the Bernab\u00e9u a few months ago, Real Madrid are eager to make up for their defeat and to replicate last season\u2019s success in the Spanish Super Cup.<\/p>\n
Carlo Ancelotti knows that his team must be decisive in all areas if they want to win the title and gain a significant morale boost heading into the crucial second half of the season.
\nIn a press conference, the Italian coach stated: \u201cThe team is performing well and is motivated. Cl\u00e1sico matches are competitive and difficult, but they are also enjoyable. We want to put on a good show and win the title again.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, according to information from the Spanish newspaper “Defensa Central”, there are still some uncertainties about Real Madrid\u2019s lineup, which raises the possibility that Moroccan star Brahim Diaz could be included as a starter.
\nIn fact, assistant coach Davide Carlo mentioned that Brahim\u2019s ability to dribble and break defensive lines with passes behind the defenders could be decisive for his inclusion in the starting lineup, especially after analyzing Barcelona\u2019s recent match against Athletic Bilbao.<\/p>\n
The assistant coach added in the last few hours: \u201cHis passes behind the defenders could be key to playing with Vinicius and Kylian,\u201d which increases the chances of the Moroccan player being featured from the start.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
