"We need a match with intensity, with pace... Looking at the first leg, defensively we could have done a lot more," Ancelotti told a press conference on Tuesday, insisting that his side cannot afford to underestimate the challenge posed by Bayern despite the German side's disappointing domestic campaign.
"We are very excited because it could be another magical night for us, but there is no optimism. We are aware of the difficulties that we are going to face." "There is euphoria because we are having a great year," Carvajal told a press conference just days after Real claimed a record-extending 36th LaLiga title.
