  • Champions UEFA changes the venue for the Champions League final due to Russia's attack on Ukraine: it will be played in Paris and not in Saint Petersburg

The closeness of the match between

Rayo Vallecano

and

Real Madrid

(Saturday, 6:30 pm) did not prevent

Carlo Ancelotti

from giving his opinion on the main topic of news these days:

Russia's attack on Ukraine

.

War.

"I do not understand why this happens in 2022, but it is happening and unfortunately we have to think that our lives change.

Hopefully it can be solved

. I have not lived through a war, but

my grandfather was in the First, my father the Second and they have told me a

lot of things

. Really, it's a horror," said the 62-year-old Italian coach.

At

Real Madrid

, all eyes are on

Andriy Lunin , a

23 - year

- old Ukrainian goalkeeper

who has family and friends in

Kiev

.

"I have spoken with Lunin and so has the president to show him our affection. It is a difficult time, war is a horror", he has repeated.

"

Lunin doesn't have the spirit he had before

, he's worried, he has his mother and friends in Kiev and it's normal. I think the training helps him not to think about it, but it affects him."

In the field of sports, this Saturday Madrid visit one of the most complicated fields in the League against Rayo who have their minds set on the decisive

Copa del Rey semifinal

match next week.

"

Winning in Vallecas and beating Real Sociedad would mean a lot for the League

, so I'm going to put in the best team", confessed

Carletto,

who

will not be able to count on David Alaba or Gareth Bale

, both with muscular overloads.

On the horizon, the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 against PSG, on March 9: "I haven't thought about that yet.

Before that we have two finals

."
