'They didn't give up': Ancelotti impressed with Real Madrid performance against Mallorca despite injuries

"The team didn’t give up despite the injuries. 12 injuries are not common," Carlo Ancelotti said in his press conference after the Mallorca win.
"The whole team had a good attitude. I’ve never seen a team shoot 40 times like we did today.
"The team surprised us tonight," Ancelotti adds.
Real Madrid peppered Mallorca with 22 shots during the game, but it took a late effort from defender Jacobo Ramon to find the winner and give Los Blancos a 2-1 win.
That result means that Barcelona will not win La Liga tonight, but can do so by avoiding defeat against city rivals Espanyol.
