Real Madrid coach Ancelotti: Kepa back for Union Berlin

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti says Kepa Arrizabalaga will start against Champions League opponents Union Berlin.

On-loan Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa has been missing in recent games due to injury.

Ancelotti said: “Kepa will be our goalkeeper tomorrow. I don't think it's unfair to leave someone on the bench because that would make it unfair all the time. (Andriy) Lunin has had a chance to get a run in the team and he did well.

"He and all of us are delighted to have a goalkeeper we can trust. Kepa didn't have to show it in the same way as he's already shown it over his career.

"Kepa has always done a fantastic job whenever he's played."
