That same day, Carlo Ancelotti’s squad had an unexpected addition in training.
Jeremy de Leon was back with the first team after a long injury layoff.
Fans were quick to react:
🗣 “Florentino saw the draw and pulled out the Puerto Rican lucky charm. Yeah, we are winning this one.”
🗣 “Jeremy’s here. Now I’m really confident about getting into the quarterfinals.”
The 20-year-old winger has earned a reputation as Madrid’s good luck charm — Ancelotti took him along for key away games last season, and they never lost.
