Real Madrid and their coach Carlo Ancelotti are celebrating again. The Champions League’s most successful team won its fifteenth trophy in the competition on Saturday night, and Toni Kroos ends his career at the very top. What were the coach’s reactions after the game?
The feast of football is over. Borussia Dormund confirmed their undisputed quality in the Champions League final, but struggled to convert shooting opportunities.
In the second half, Real Madrid took the initiative, but Kobel, the excellent goalkeeper, held his team. However, he was not able to meet Carvajal’s header and then Vinícius converted to make it 2-0.
Real Madrid could celebrate their fifteenth triumph in the competition in which they are the most successful team. AC Milan is second with seven trophies, followed by Liverpool and Bayern Munich with six.
Ancelotti after winning the Champions League
“You never get used to this. It was very difficult, much more difficult than we thought it would be. We had to survive the first half, in the second half we lost the ball less and played better.
But these are all small things, we won. The dream continues!” said Ancelotti shortly after the final whistle, which awarded his team another trophy.
“A really tough game. The opponent was better in the first half, we were better in the second half. That’s what finals are like. We managed to win and finish a fantastic season.
The history and tradition of the club, the quality of the players, one big family, good atmosphere in the cabin. All this led us to a great triumph,” said the popular Don Carlo, who has made an indelible mark on the hearts of Los Blancos fans.
