Real played two games just 68 hours away, Carlo Ancelotti threatened that his team would not even appear on the pitch next time, but let’s ask Manchester United who has been in this condition more often!
They were all … pieces. Bape and Beligham could not get their feet. Real after a rematch in the Champions League ’16, having played a 120 ‘intense battle with Atletico to qualify for a penalty shoot -out, had to play 68 hours later, away with Villarreal.
He got the victory, though, he was dumped, and not. Ancelotti was so furious that he threatened not to re -establish his team on the pitch if something happened again, even saying that Laliga rejected the requests of the “merengues” to transfer the match with the “yellow submarine”.
Manchester United could well say that … she sympathizes. And yet, he has never grumbled so much, officially, never. Maybe because in England they are accustomed to the and rational pace of racing obligations and this has become a habit, but without doing good.
The “Red Devils” since the start of the 2022-2023 season have been faced 42 times with a treaty in which they have been playing in different games in less than 72 hours!
Once less, Real Madrid has played in the same period, without completing 72 hours of the end of one match until the next one. And right afterwards Barcelona comes!
In the end, Don Carlo, you are certainly not alone and wishing to have the fist you had to shout about the health of your players …
Man United have played more games with less than 72 hours rest than any other club in Europe’s top four leagues since the 2022/23 season:
