Ancelotti named the players responsible for the defeat!

In yesterday's Copa del Rey final, the players of "Real Madrid" accepted a 2:3 defeat in a fierce and intense match against their principal rival "Barselona".

In the first part of the decisive match, the "royal club" was forced to clear the ball from their goal. However, in the second half, the Madrid team fully recovered and struck the opponent's goal twice in quick succession, taking the lead. But just a few minutes before the end of the regular time, the Catalans managed to score an equalizer.

In extra time, the situation became tense again. Barselona defender Jules Koundé delivered a precise and decisive strike in the 117th minute, securing a historic victory for the "blaugrana" and bringing them the Copa del Rey.

After the match, Madrid's head coach Carlo Ancelotti shared his thoughts on the situation that occurred in the final minutes and determined the outcome of the game.

“In the 117th minute, there was a small misunderstanding in the situation where the opponent's decisive goal was scored. Brahim Diaz was expecting the ball to be passed over him. Luka Modric, however, passed the ball along the ground, contrary to what he thought. Usually, such small details do not affect the outcome of the game. But this time, this particular situation turned out to be decisive for us and led to us losing the victory,” Ancelotti explained.

For reference, this victory means the 32nd Copa del Rey in the club's history for "Barselona", while "Real Madrid" experienced the bitterness of defeat in the final for the 21st time in their history.
