Ancelotti Vows Real Madrid Will Never Play Without 72 Hours Rest Again
Real Madrid's manager, Carlo Ancelotti, has made a bold declaration following their recent match against Villarreal. Ancelotti stated that Real Madrid will no longer participate in matches without at least 72 hours of rest between games. This decision comes in the wake of the team's performance against Villarreal, where the squad appeared fatigued due to the tight schedule.
Ancelotti's statement has sparked a significant discussion about player welfare and the demanding nature of modern football schedules. He emphasized the need for adequate rest to prevent injuries and maintain high performance levels. The manager's stance has been supported by several players, including the newly signed Kylian Mbappé, who has experienced the strain of frequent matches firsthand.
This move by Ancelotti could set a precedent for other clubs and leagues to reconsider their scheduling practices. La Liga and other football governing bodies might need to address these concerns to ensure the health and longevity of their athletes. Real Madrid's next steps and the league's response to Ancelotti's declaration will be closely watched in the coming weeks.
