Ancelotti on Joselu: He’s a player who has helped us a lot this season, even if he hasn’t played as much

Real Madrid have once again reached the Champions League final and confirmed that they are the best club in the world in the last decade. A big contributor to the progression is experienced striker Joselu, who scored two goals and received praise from coach Carlo Ancelotti.

Real Madrid have done it again. Although they came close to being eliminated from the Champions League, they turned the game around with two goals and can enjoy their sixth progression to the final under coach Carlo Ancelotti.

The latter was for a time considered a burnt out coach, but recently he has once again proved that he is one of the best in the world at this exciting job that many a footballer dreams of.

“It has happened again. It’s happened so many times it’s hard to explain now. It happened again because of the fans who drive us.

Thanks to the stadium that helps, thanks to the fantastic atmosphere and the players who never stop believing they can do it. It’s something magical, there’s no explanation for it,” Ancelotti said at a press conference.

Ancelotti praised Joselu

Thirty-four-year-old striker Joselu, who arrived in the summer from Espanyol, with whom he was relegated to the second division, also received praise from the experienced coach and although his arrival was not understood by many, he convinced them that he deserved a place at Real.

“He is a player who has helped us a lot this season, even though he hasn’t played much. He reflects perfectly what this team is about. There are players here who have a big contribution to make and they don’t lose their confidence (when they don’t play) and the belief that they have something to offer,” Ancelotti added.

It is Joselu’s fifth goal in ten games in the Champions League and as a long-time Real Madrid fan, it is a dream come true. He is now just a short distance away from lifting the club’s most valuable trophy above his head.
