Real Madrid stumbled in a 1-0 shock defeat Espanyol in the struggle on Sunday, which left them leading the Spanish League by one point.

However, the Carlo Ancelotti team played themselves and did not do enough to take anything from what appeared on paper as a key player.
Ancelotti told reporters: “Espanyol played a very good game in my opinion. They defended well, they did what they had to do. Was we could do more? Yes,” Ancelotti told reporters.
The Italian coach was angry at the decision not to send Romero.
“This error, the decision made by the ruling and a mouse was unacceptable, everyone saw this,” the coach continued.
“It is important to protect the players. It was a clear mistake, very ugly treatment, lucky that there is no serious injury.
“For us, they cannot be explained that they did not send it.”
Romero admitted that he felt bad about everything from the French star.
“I knew that Kylian was impossible to stop when running, I stopped him how I could, it was a little ugly,” Romero told Dazn.
“I didn’t like to do this and I said sorry. That’s everything and there is no more for that.”
