Madrid went to bed tonight at the top of the table, waiting for what Girona does today, Monday against Alavés, but unfortunately for the whites, the victory was marked by the serious injury of Alabawho says goodbye to the season: «After the tests carried out on our player David Alaba He has been diagnosed with a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. “The player will undergo surgery in the coming days,” read the white medical report.
The first reaction was that of Ancelotti, who came out to the press room a minute after the white statement: «It’s a shame, we are very sad. Another player who falls. I’ve never had three crusaders in four months. What the team has to do is hold on, as we have done until now. We have done more than people expected. “We will see in the next few days if something can be done.”
That doing something was in terms of Madrid’s options to go to the market. The team only has two of the four power plants and the Tchouaméni emergency solution available. At least, Madrid will soon recover Carvajal, Vinicius, Camavinga y Guler: «Dani could play against Alavés, but we will not risk it. “The other three players will be ready after the holidays.”

He came on today, so I’m very happy with the team’s work, the goal and the victory. It is one of the best of my career and, furthermore, I have done it at the Bernabéu. “To be applauded here is something unique, a dream.”
Marcelino, furious
Before Ancelotti, he appeared Marcelino. The Asturian coach was very forceful with the performance of his team: «Today we did not lose because of the VAR. It has been a severe defeat. We have been bad with and without the ball. When you do very badly there is no rival in First Division that does not surpass you. “This has been the worst game since I returned to Villarreal.”
The coach of Villarreal He went further and assured that if his team did not improve, it would be closer to relegation than any other objective: «We have been far below our level. If we add the same points after Christmas as up to now, we will be close to Second.
