Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said Saturday his team will not play another football game after fewer than 72 hours of rest. Los Blancos beat Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night in the Champions League on penalties and then earned a 2-1 win at Villarreal on Saturday, with the game kicking off at 1630 GMT. "I think today is the last time we will play a game before 72 hours (of rest)," Ancelotti told reporters. "We will never play another game (without) 72 hours of rest. We asked La Liga twice to change the time of the game and they did not do anything, this is the last time."
Rudi Garcia announced Friday his 26-man squad for Belgium's Nations League play-off tie against Ukraine, which included Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois for the first time since June 2023. In self-exile following a disagreement with then coach Domenico Tedesco after not being named captain for a match against Austria, Courtois will once again pull on Belgian colours. It is an inclusion that many expected after the 32-year-old stated his desire to return when Garcia was appointed as new head coach in January. The 61-year-old Frenchman said during his press conference Friday he had "decided to start afresh" as regards the star shot-stopper.
