Real Madrid Castilla coach Alvaro Arbeloa took full responsibility for his team's 2-1 defeat to Celta Vigo B in a Primera Federación match. The loss, which occurred on April 5, 2026, saw the reserve side's promotion hopes suffer a setback.
"The blame is all mine," Arbeloa stated in a post-match press conference, as reported by Spanish sports media. "I am responsible for the team's performance and the result. We did not play well, and that is on me."
The match, played at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stéfano, saw Celta Vigo B take a two-goal lead. A late goal from Real Madrid Castilla was not enough to salvage a point. The result leaves Castilla's position in the league table under pressure as the season enters its final stages.
