Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti concedes Eden Hazard struggled for their 0-0 draw with Cadiz on Sunday.

It was a rare start for Hazard on Sunday.

Ancelotti said: “He struggled a little bit to get into the game in the first half, just like the rest of the team. He did better in the second half. You're right when you say that he struggles a bit more on the outside and he's not so used to playing on the right. He linked up well with Karim. Hazard is obviously another weapon that we've got now in the second half of the season."

The Italian added: "Sometimes we've won games that we didn't deserve to win and that levels itself out with those games where we haven't deserved to win. There's no issue in terms of replacing Casemiro because Camavinga can fill in there. We were really lacking down the right-hand side and we have to give a lot of thought to Wednesday's game and who will play down the right."
