Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said his defender Raul Asencio was “affected” by chants calling for him to die on Wednesday at Real Sociedad in the Copa del Rey. 

Los Blancos earned a 1-0 semi-final first leg win thanks to Endrick’s goal but there was controversy as home fans chanted “Asencio die” and the match was briefly paused by the referee as a result.
