While working for an Italian sportscasting company, Fabio Capello analyzed last Saturday's game between Real Madrid and Barcelona. Having coached Los Blancos for two terms, the current Russian National Team's coach stated he can't stand Neymar because of his "acting" skills.
"He is a great attacking player, but what I can't stand is that a player at his level should fall to the ground at the slightest touch from another player. I find this kind of attitude very annoying," Capello said about Neymar.
But not everything was hateful for Capello. The seasoned manager added Real Madrid's current level is "one of the best he has ever seen" and praised the tactical approach used by Carlo Ancelotti to defeat Luis Enrique's team. Furthermore, Capello praised all the players for their physical display, and had specific praises for Spanish goalkeeper Iker Casillas.
"It was an imposing spectacle, every player knowing what he had to do and how to do it", and also Iker Casillas's decisive save from Messi: "That save of his from Messi was terrific," Capello added.
