Dani Carvajal issues apology after Real Madrid shock exit from Copa del Rey

Real Madrid’s press service has published the full message addressed to fans by Dani Carvajal following the team’s heavy defeat in the Copa del Rey, İdman.Biz reports.

On Wednesday, January 14, Los Blancos were eliminated at the round of 16 stage after a 2:3 loss to Albacete, who are currently 17th in the Segunda division.

“Today we hit rock bottom. We were knocked out of the tournament by a Segunda team, and I congratulate them,” Carvajal said. “From tomorrow, we have to be self-critical, both individually and collectively. We still have time to turn the season around. We are fighting for victory in two fantastic competitions. The team is not in the best shape right now, and we need to work hard.

“We all have to give everything we have, and that is the reality. We have to give one hundred percent. We also apologize to the fans, and I, above all, have not lived up to the level and expectations of this club. We promise to give everything in the matches over the next few months to change the situation,” the defender added.
