Ancelotti Says Rudiger and Alaba Will Be Back for Man City Game
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that Antonio Rudiger and David Alaba will be fit for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League clash against Manchester City next week.
Both defenders missed the first leg at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday due to injury, as well as Madrid’s recent 1-1 draw with Atletico in LaLiga.
Speaking after Madrid’s 3-2 win over City, Ancelotti expressed confidence that the duo would return for the crucial match at the Santiago Bernabeu.
“We need Rudiger and Alaba for the return leg, and I think they will be available,” he said. He also admitted that he was surprised by how much his team was willing to sacrifice to secure the win.
Ghanaian Referee, Daniel Laryea, who officiated the Nigeria vs Morocco game in AFCON gets interviews and shared his experience.
The referee reveals how it was his first time in a semi final and was kind of nervous. “I’ve been to three AFCON tournaments, but this is the first time I’ve been in a semi-final.”
“So when coaches choose you for that game, they know your skills and what you can do. But of course, you feel a little nervous because of the level of the match.”
Nigerian Footballer, Bright Osayi-Samuel , react to match as Super Eagles lose to Morocco.
The player calls out CAF for their referee appointment. He shares how the Ghanaian Referee was tough on the field and made bad choices.
“One thing I would say is that the referee was really bad. I’m not saying that was the reason we lost. He is making really bad choices and it’s really tough to watch because we have referees like this in big games like today.
He then praises Morocco for a good game “But Morocco did really well.”
Super Eagles Coach, Eric Chelle speaks and shared why Nigeria lost the AFCON match to Morocco.
It can be noted that the match was held on the 14th of January, 2026. Nigeria lost the match with a draft in the penalties, 4-2.
During a recent interview, Chelle shared his observations about the match and shared why they lost.
“From a technical point of view, the Super Eagles weren’t at the same level as we displayed in our other matches.”
“I don’t want to say the reason was fatigue, but the truth is that we lacked movement and power.”
