With Real Madrid now facing an uphill battle to defend their title, Ancelotti was quick to defend his team, highlighting their resilience and difficult path to past glories.

He said in his post-match press conference:

“The result doesn’t reflect what happened. They deserved to win but it was a close game until the first goal.

“We have to learn from it. Self-criticism is fundamental. But we are not throwing everything in the trash, our first half was good.

“Last time we lost 4-0 at home to Barcelona, ​​we won La Liga and the Champions League. We won’t stop fighting.”

Although it took a second-half boost to defeat Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League, any hopes of a similar comeback faded on Saturday as Barcelona remained in control, looking set to extend their lead well more than Madrid seemed capable of closing down.
