To this was added one Courteous pale pink, Nacho debuting in a classic as a captain and an incomprehensible 4-4-2 without 9.
Modric, false 9
Sense Benzema, Ancelotti populated the middle of the field with four midfielders to generate superiority and steal possession from one Barça who lives from it. But those of Xavi they went upstairs to press, thus isolating Modric and one Valverde that went to the space when not having 9. Precisely, an incorporation of the Uruguayan, after a play of vinicius, he was the most dangerous of the Madrid players in the first half.
In the 11th minute a double intervention of Courteousafter shotsAubameyang i Dembele, saved the whites, who were making water on the back of Carvajal, whom Ancelotti booed. Whites, today blacks, were beginning to suffer. Modric, out of coverage and frustrated as a fake 9, was asking for explanations on the sidewalk. The decision of Carletto he was using it. In the 28th minute, the Bernabéu’s fears materialized after a cross from Dembele shot on the net by his friend Aubameyang, the only newcomer to the classic. Ancelotti’s tactical experiment condemned a Madrid without Benzema and with Modric incommunicado.
Everything could change in the 35th minute vinicius stood in front Ter Stegen, but it was done at night and ended in a sensational ‘pool’. To finish marinating, three minutes later Araujo he scored with his head a corner kick that he left portrayed Military i Alaba. Only then did Carletto regain the 4-3-3 lead Modric and placing Rodrygo of 9 with Valverde and Come to the ends. Ancelotti he had given away a part. The 0-2 at halftime was even short.

Madrid’s tactical disaster was epic. And the Italian retracted, reorganizing the defense in a 4-4-2 with Alaba in the left lane and Nacho in the right.
Final delirium
The fourth goal was delirious. Martinez Munuera canceled out a goal in the first place Aubameyang to then grant it in the face of local protest. With 0-4 and more than half an hour ahead, the audience began to leave Bernabeu. Carletto’s harakiri reached historic heights. He Madrid will win the League, but the Barça from Xavi it ratified his resurrection on the most delirious night of the Ancelotti era.
