Carlo Ancelotti spoken about why he started Diego Lopez rather than Iker Casillas.
The new coach of Real Madrid has obviously explain the reasons that led him to confirm Diego Lopez in goal for Real Madrid, in line with Mourinho, and relegated the legendary Iker Casillas:
“It’s hard, yes, because it’s always hard to leave a player on the bench. And it becomes even more so when that player is called Iker Casillas. Casillas is a very good goalkeeper but I chose Diego Lopez as he started the season a fortnight before it is read and in good conditions.This is my decision. I will give Casillas a chance to play.” The record for selections in Spain (150) will indeed evolve in the Champions League. A choice a little surprising that the vast majority of fans are struggling to understand, considering that Diego Lopez should evolve in both competitions.
