Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti is characterised by his cool external demeanour and ability to handle adversity almost without blinking. However every now and then, he shows a human temper.
The Italian manager has been forced to deal with a number of serious injuries of late, and Los Blancos have suffered six anterior cruciate ligament injuries in the past year, including to crucial players such as Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao and David Alaba.
As Camavinga went down with a blood-curdling cry on Tuesday evening, his teammates rushed over to him. Yet RMC Sport showed a frustrated Ancelotti throw down what looked like a stopwatch as he saw the incident occur.

His upset is understandable, given he know doubt cares plenty for Camavinga too. Further tests are scheduled for Wednesday to establish the true extent of Camavinga’s injury, but fortunately it looks as if he has avoided a muscle tear or a serious injury.
