Real Madrid secured a huge 3-2 win over Atalanta in the Champions League on Tuesday, although it wasn't a perfect night for the defending champions as they had more injury problems – and it was a big one too, as Kylian Mbappe had to be. left in the first half with a suspected muscle problem.
Carlo Ancelotti spoke after the match in Bergamo (via Diario AS) and gave a positive update on Mbappe's condition.
“He has a strain, a discomfort in the hamstring. We'll have to see in the coming days. It doesn't seem serious, but he had to stop because he couldn't sprint… it bothered him a bit. That's why we preferred to take him away.”
Ancelotti also spoke about the match itself, in which Real Madrid recorded only their third Champions League victory of the season.
“It was a complicated match, an important victory. We show our best version: suffering, fighting, competing. We had great ball turnover and good play from the forwards, with great mobility. Everything went well. It is clear that we have to suffer, winning here is not easy.”
