Days before facing Barça, Real Madrid received great and controversial news
The team from the spanish capital received great news thinking about the Clásico.
There are just a few days left until Real Madrid and FC Barcelona meet again for their Spanish League match and that is why everyone is waiting for any information that arises related to both teams. In the last few hours, controversial news has emerged that benefits the white team and worries all the culés.
The Appeal Commission of the Spanish Football Federation has reduced the sanction to Nacho Fernández, captain of Real Madrid, from three to two games for his very harsh tackle on Portu in the victory against Girona held in Montilivi. The merengue defender, therefore, will be able to play in the classic on October 28. The central defender, in this way, will also be out for this coming Saturday's match against Sevilla at the Sánchez Pizjuán stadium after having been out for the same time reason in the last league match against Osasuna.
Nacho, who was sent off with a direct red card after an action in which he stuck his studs into the Girona footballer's calf. The white center back himself had to apologize for his action. The competition sanctioned him with three games, but Real Madrid considered that it was not a big deal and that he should go to appeal. The surprising thing is that Appeal agrees with him and reduces his punishment by one game, forcing him to rest only two games.
Great news for Carlo Ancelotti
It is great news for Ancelotti, who hopes to recover Alaba against Sevilla and will be able to count on Nacho, so he will have three centre-backs for the ‘Clásico’ if there are no more setbacks given that Rüdiger is available. The Real Madrid coach incorporated Tchouaméni into the center of defense in the last game against Osasuna due to the absences of the Austrian and Nacho himself, in addition to Militao. Although the Spanish center back will be available, he is not clear about his presence in the starting eleven given that throughout the season Rüdiger and Alaba have been the center back pair.
