“We’ve had injuries that have hampered us a bit,” Realmadrid.com quoted Ancelotti as saying.
“The squad is solid. We’ve always been competitive despite the absences of Militao, Courtois, Vinicius and Bellingham. The team is doing well and we are convinced that we can handle things.
“Those who have played less have an opportunity. It’s an opportunity to show how good the players are that make up this squad. The calendar can not be sustained and those who draw it have to look at what has happened.
“Now we have this problem and it will increase because there Will be a World Cup and a Champions League with more matches. The solution is to reduce the number of games. If Laliga, UEFA and FIFA cannot agree, the players can’t do anything.”
Bellingham and Ceballos are set to make the lineup of the match against Cadiz.
