"It feels great, obviously," said Ancelotti after Real Madrid won the Intercontinental Cup in Qatar. The 65-year-old Italian has become the most successful coach in the history of the Bernabeu club, with a total of 15 titles, surpassing previous coaches such as Miguel Munoz with 14 titles and Zinedine Zidane with 11 titles.
Coach Ancelotti and Real Madrid won the Intercontinental Cup, after the European Super Cup at the beginning of the season.
"We are very happy. I am very happy myself. This event is something very important. We have closed 2024 in a spectacular way. But, as always at Real Madrid, we now have to think about 2025," coach Ancelotti emphasized.
Regarding the record of winning 15 championship titles at Real Madrid, coach Ancelotti admitted that he "really likes it".
Real Madrid's victory over Pachuca was a remarkable difference in class. The "trio" on the attack line, including Mbappe, Rodrygo and Vinicius, the player who just won the FIFA The Best 2024 title, were the ones who scored in the 3-0 victory for the Spanish team.
"Looking back and seeing that I have won so many titles over the years, I am happy. I am happy. But I always remember what Real Madrid is: a club that requires great concentration. We must continue to win more titles," coach Ancelotti affirmed.
Right after winning the Intercontinental Cup, Real Madrid must return to Spain to prepare for the weekend match against Sevilla in La Liga at 10:15 p.m. on December 22. Real Madrid is currently being pushed down to 3rd place by Atletico Madrid. Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid will meet Barcelona (top of the table) at 3 a.m. on December 22. The gap between these 3 teams is only 1 point (38 vs. 37). Therefore, any result in the upcoming round can change the current positions of the teams.
Coach Ruben Amorim shocked everyone by still leaving Rashford out
MU is preparing for the quarter-final match of the English League Cup against Tottenham at 3am on December 20. However, before the match, coach Ruben Amorim once again caused a shock when he announced that striker Marcus Rashford was removed from the playing list. This is the second consecutive match that this 27-year-old striker has been removed from the playing list, after the derby victory over Man City with a score of 2-1 on December 15.
MU will transfer Rashford in early 2025
Meanwhile, winger Alejandro Garnacho, after being dropped along with Rashford in the match against Man City, was called back into the squad to play against Tottenham.
This event means that Rashford's chance to stay at MU is almost gone. The Old Trafford team will put Rashford on the transfer list from January 1, 2025 with a fee of only 50 million USD.
In other matches in the quarter-finals of the English League Cup, Arsenal beat Crystal Palace 3-2, Newcastle beat Brentford 3-1 and Liverpool beat Southampton 2-1 to qualify for the semi-finals.
