Or what is the same, a winger converted as a right back and two midfielders, one as a center back (Tchouam\u00e9ni) and the other as a left back (Camavinga). Of the <strong>13 different defenses<\/strong> that has aligned <strong>Ancelotti <\/strong>So far this season, yesterday&#8217;s game against Sevilla is undoubtedly the most risky and the fewest in pure defense. All this after <strong>Ancelotti surprised by taking out Camavinga as a left-back<\/strong> and he will leave his two specialists in that position on the bench: <strong>Mendy and Fran Garc\u00eda<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Links P\u00e1rrafos\">However, it is not the first time that <strong>Ancelotti<\/strong> He plays with a single pure defender in his back four line. <strong>Last season he used the same defense<\/strong> than against Sevilla, neither more nor less than against Barcelona at the Bernab\u00e9u. A match that Real Madrid also ended up winning (3-2), with <strong>Lucas Vazquez<\/strong> in a stellar plan. <\/p>\n<h2>The defense problem<\/h2>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Links P\u00e1rrafos\">The losses in defense have been the main headache for <strong>Ancelotti<\/strong> since <strong>Carvajal and Militao&#8217;s injuries<\/strong> They complicated everything even more than it already was. The coach has had to invent and improvise on many occasions to carry out the lineups and the games. All this while crossing our fingers so that <strong>R\u00fcdiger<\/strong>the only pure center back he has in the first team (Vallejo is not part of his plans), they respect his physical setbacks. <strong>At the moment the German is not taking his foot off the accelerator<\/strong> and it is being the lifeline.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<div><picture><source type=\"image\/webp\"  ><source type=\"image\/png\"  ><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\" alt=\"R\u00fcdiger.\" src=\"https:\/\/e00-xlk-ue-marca.uecdn.es\/uploads\/2024\/12\/22\/676866da61e53.png\"><\/picture><\/div><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Links P\u00e1rrafos\">Because from <strong>R\u00fcdiger<\/strong> The critical defensive scenario has forced Ancelotti to think about it a lot. On the right side, where he only has <strong>Lucas Vazquez<\/strong>had to put on two occasions <strong>Valverde<\/strong> and in the last meetings, to <strong>Asencio<\/strong> in the final minutes. In the center of defense he opted for himself <strong>Asencio<\/strong> and after the return of <strong>Tchouam\u00e9ni<\/strong>has made him his second center back. On the left he has Mendy and Fran Garc\u00eda, but with the former still lame from the injury, he decided to bet on <strong>Camavinga<\/strong> against Sevilla. All of this has led to seeing how Madrid faced a match, that of Sevilla, with only one pure defender.
