Carlo Ancelotti spoke to the media after a convincing win over Cadiz, with goals coming from Brahim Diaz, Jude Bellingham and Joselu. After the game, Ancelotti was asked about why he took Arda Guler off, to which he said: "He had the role he was meant to have. Today, I took him away because I wanted to win the game. Real Madrid brought me here to win matches, not to give youngsters minutes, and I wanted to put fresh legs in. The young players have progressed very well, and the veterans continue to give fantastic performances." "From what I see, the locker room is calm. We have a great opportunity to play in another final, and there is no greater motivation than this. An opportunity to finish well a season that has already been spectacular. "It's contained joy, we have the most important game of the season coming up. Everyone has Wednesday's game in mind. Players who play less have responded one hundred per cent. We have to wait and be patient. We have to recover well and bring out our best version on Wednesday." "We have to wait [to celebrate], but we have had a spectacular League. We have made few mistakes, and the advantage is deserved." "He's very good. He needed to play a little, and I think he'll be at his best on Wednesday without a problem." "Courtois needs minutes like Militao, and in these league games, I am going to put him in [the lineup]. Militao has been much better today. They are much fresher." "It's different because today, by winning, we are not champions. We have to wait. We haven't won yet. We are going home calmly to think about the next game." "Bellingham's goal against Barça that put us within eleven points was the most important thing. There is nothing organized because we have to focus on Wednesday's game." "When we start to defend well, we improve. The injuries have been problematic but they have helped us to better understand this, that it was a collective problem and we have done it well."Ancelotti on "euphoria" in the dressing room
