Ancelotti Leaves Everyone in Shock by Answering if He Considers Himself the Best in History

Real Madrid thrashed Pachuca and dominated a game that didn't start off very well for Ancelotti's men. Despite this somewhat complicated start, the dizzying pace of the Meringue attack ended up imposing itself and from there came the three scored goals.

In addition to making Real Madrid the team with most Intercontinental Cups in competition's history, with four, another historic record was also achieved. Because the Italian coach became the Real Madrid coach with the most titles won, surpassing the 14 achieved by Miguel Muñoz.

Many are wondering if, after this milestone, Carlo Ancelotti really is the best coach of all time. At least behind closed doors at Santiago Bernabéu. The debate has been raging since last night, when the Real Madrid coach took advantage of the opportunity to answer the question in his usual way: with elegance.

Edu Aguirre, a journalist from El Chiringuito de Jugones, asked him if he could be considered "the best coach in Real Madrid's history". Far from taking credit and titles, Carlo Ancelotti acknowledged that "I'm happy, it seems unbelievable" .

Classic reply

Shortly afterwards came the verdict from Reggiolo's boss: "Not the best, but the one who has won the most titles." This answer reflects Carlo Ancelotti's personality, both inside and outside his role as coach. "Obviously I share this with everyone because with a team like this it is easier to achieve it," confessed the Italian strategist after his 15th title.

The fact that Carlo Ancelotti has said these words after being one of the centers of attention is a curious reaction to what has happened so far this season. Because the irregular competitive moment developed by the Real Madrid players has put their continuity in the two most important tournaments of the 24/25 season at risk: La Liga and Champions League.

The victory in Bergamo, which is a must, gives the white club hope of qualifying for the play-offs. Continuing to score points in the top national competition, while FC Barcelona is losing many points along the way, also helps to stay in the fight for the top spot.

At the center of all these rumors was Carlo Ancelotti, whose continuity was much discussed last November. Some media even reported that Real Madrid had Santiago Solari prepared as interim coach... in case of the sudden dismissal of the Merengue coach in the middle of the season.
