And Ancelotti proved the correctness of his decision because Rodrigo's replacement shone and led the Real to victory, and then the coach searched for Rodrigo on the bench to prove that he was right!
Ancelotti said after the match: "Rodrigo was suffering a little and I preferred not to risk him. He did not say hello to me while he was out, but I think he forgot. I told him not to forget to say hello when he was substituted."
