Solari blasted Real Madrid players: Don't let Ajax s**t on us!

Real Madrid coach Santiago Solari lost his rag at halftime of their Champions League win at Ajax.

Marca reports Solari demanded his side to go out there and show what they are capable of.

"We're letting them s**t on us and we can't allow that," the Argentine began, raising his tone in an energetic address after watching Ajax be the better side in the opening half.

"We can't play with two or three senses; we have to play with five and look inside for the sixth.

"There are times when we play the game with intent but tonight, we also have to answer back with bite."

One of his orders to his players was to press higher and allow Ajax less time on the ball, while also showing more intensity in individual lines.

"We must advance, and everyone individually must move further forward and stick to our men like they are," he said.

"With two short combinations, we will open up areas and that can open up many possibilities for us."
