Real Madrid Prepares for El Clasico Against Barcelona

Real Madrid kept their LaLiga title hopes alive with a 3-2 win over Celta Vigo, thanks to two goals from Kylian Mbappe and a strong performance from Arda Guler, who also contributed a goal and an assist. Despite leading 3-0, Real faced a late comeback from Celta Vigo, which coach Carlo Ancelotti attributed to injury-related absences, particularly missing six defenders. Ancelotti expressed satisfaction with the win but acknowledged the need for better defensive management under pressure. Looking ahead to the upcoming 'El Clasico' against league leaders Barcelona, Ancelotti vowed his team would be well-prepared and put up a strong fight to close the four-point gap in the title race. Barcelona remains unbeaten in their last 15 league games and recently defeated Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey final, adding intensity to the rivalry. Ancelotti is hopeful that forward Rodrygo will return from illness in time for the crucial match against Barcelona.
