Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has revealed the strategy that Real Madrid are using to trick opponents this season.

Ancelotti said: “We use the tiredness strategy. We trick the opposition into thinking that we’re tired and take full advantage in the second half of games.”

Ancelotti also confirmed Real Madrid captain Karim Benzema will be unavailable for the game against Atletico Madrid.

He added: “He won’t make the game. He’s started to do some individual work. He’ll make the most of the international break to make sure he’s ready for when we come back.”
