Madrid, Sep 22 (EFE), (Camera: Ángel Herrera).- Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti told a press conference on Monday that Cristiano Ronaldo did not need a break. The Portuguese would play against Elche as, the coach said, he was in a very good stage, both physically and mentally and "right now, we need him." After the team beat Deportivo 2-8 on Saturday, Ancelotti acknowledged that the players had "reacted well" and asked them to keep it up.
