Carlo Ancelotti praised the improved defensive performance of Real Madrid's forwards, noting that players like Vinicius Jr, Kylian Mbappe, Rodrygo, and Jude Bellingham have contributed significantly to both attacking and defensive roles. The forwards have collectively scored 39 of the team's 54 goals in LaLiga, while the team has demonstrated strong defensive capabilities, maintaining a top position in the standings alongside Barcelona. The team's recent performance indicates a strategic shift since early February, particularly following a match against Atletico Madrid, showcasing a commitment to defensive responsibilities from the attacking players.
"We have talked about it many times. Not just with Vinicius Jr, with everyone. And they agreed. It has obviously changed in the last few games."
"Since the game against Atletico Madrid (on February 9), the defensive improvement has been evident. Vinicius is helping a lot. It has changed the team a lot."
