“On the one hand I am angry with myself, on the other hand those three matches are of course too tough,” says Yannick Carrasco in conversation with Gilles De Bilde in Madrid. “It’s going to hurt not to be there tonight. But Atlético has already proven that they can do it without me. And I can help the team in my own way. Close to the bank, with encouragement.”

Watch here after 45″ how Carrasco took red in Porto:

Carrasco, who is expecting a first child this summer together with Noémie Happart (elected Miss Belgium in 2013), is also looking ahead to the Qatar World Cup. “It will be important to be as fit as possible in November. In that regard, it is not a bad thing that Martínez is calling on the less experienced players for the upcoming exhibition matches. This way they can show themselves and we can enjoy the necessary rest.”
