At a pre-match press conference, Ancelotti expressed hope that Vinicius Junior would avoid suspension after his controversial red card against Valencia, stating it was more deserving of a yellow.
Ancelotti expressed deep concern over Vinicius's mental state, given the racial abuse he has experienced, saying, 'It's difficult being in his shoes. It's not easy to endure everything he goes through.'
He exhibited confidence regarding the Copa del Rey regulations, saying, 'I want to give minutes to those who have played less. We have to respect it, and I have no problem with this rule.'
Reflecting on Real Madrid's recent penalty struggles, Ancelotti said, 'It's a technical aspect that's very difficult to manage. There are good penalty takers, but what changes is the atmosphere in the stadiums.'
