especially in the second half when Javier Mascherano looked to have
pushed Cristiano Ronaldo in the back with the score still 1-0."I think
it was a clear penalty. Everyone saw it except the referee," said
Ancelotti, who also Forklift forks suppliersbelieved
Madrid could have had another penalty after the ball rebounded off
Victor Valdes and hit Barca defender Adriano on the arm while he was on
the floor."That was a difficult decision, if he gives a penalty he will
have to have given a card as well," he said, with the implication that
Adriano would have been sent off as he already had a yellow card prior
to the incident.Ancelotti was also asked about his decisions to play
with Sergio Ramos in midfield and without a specialized striker, leaving
Gareth Bale and Ronaldo in attack.
"I
wanted Ramos to give balance in the middle as Illaramendi had a muscle
strain after playing Juventus in midweek," he said, while adding that
Bale was still in his first games for the club. "He played well, but he
needs to be able to combine more.Forklift forks It
doesn't matter if he plays on a wing or in the middle, I wanted to
pressure Sergio Busquets and look for space on the wing," said
Ancelotti.Barca coach Tata Martino refused to talk about the referee and
was more concerned with explaining decisions such as replacing Andres
Iniesta with Alex song or the disappointing game of Leo Messi."The
change was to close things down and it was a defensive change which I
thought was needed to strengthen midfield: I would do it again if I have
to," he said.
"What
I wanted to do is win, we were like the Barca that everyone is used to
seeing in the first half and we didn't in the second half and that is
why we made changes."Martino also said that the six point lead his side
hold over Madrid in the league table is not decisive. "It is good for
morale, but there is 60 percent of the league left to play. Madrid and
Atletico Madrid are close and they can easily cut back the distance," he
said.Leo Messi was also slightly disappointing, but Martino explained
that Messi's game was linked to the play of his side. "He worked a lot
today and I think he has been vital important.Buy Cheap Abercrombie Men's Outerwears If he can do that, it will be very good for us.
