JAKARTA - Real Madrid will face Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League Matchday 3 on Wednesday evening local time. Los Blancos coach Carlo Ancelotti saw the preview of the match in detail.

"We knew it would be an important game to try to get nine points," he said.

"We have great respect for this opponent. They played well, similar to last year, with a quick striker."

The former Everton coach confirmed that after a draw against Osasuna in La Liga on Sunday, his children wanted to bounce back.

Don Carlo also provided an update on the injuries of his players, revealing that Thibaut Courtois and Dani Ceballos were sidelined with injuries and Luka Modric was back but were not sure to play.

Meanwhile, responding to the criticism that Karim Benzema has received in recent days, after a bad performance against Osasuna, this is Ancelotti's answer.

"People can think what they want, criticism is normal in football, but it doesn't affect us," the coach said.
