Ancelotti: UEFA Super Cup is related to Real's last season
Carlo Ancelotti addressed the media following the pre-season friendly against Club America.
"The game was a good one, better than the first. We struggled at the start up against a well-organised side. The team settled into the match and performed well and played in a different way to the first half. We played with more intensity and controlled play".
"The second half was more dynamic, with Ceballos and Camavinga changing positions. They both played well and brought a lot of energy. Ceballos is very good in possession".
"Benzema is in good shape, despite having not trained much. He's fine but needs to work on his fitness. We're working hard and the players aren't feeling fresh. We'll reduce the workload after the Juventus game until we play the Super Cup".
"We need to give Hazard minutes in these games because he's a great player and we need him. Tobias came on because he's a very good young player. He's very focused in training and I gave him some minutes because of that".
"We have to keep in mind the players who won the Champions League. The Super Cup is related to last season and we have to round it off by winning it. The players who I think will play more in the Super Cup will get more playing time against Juventus".
