“Chelsea are going through a difficult time. I think tomorrow’s match (Tuesday) can give them the opportunity to get out of this bad patch, ”warned the Italian coach on Monday. “We are aware of this, we take it into account and we will try to play our best football, continued Ancelotti, we are motivated as always (…) There are 90 minutes left to play and in this type of competition anything can happen .”
“We don’t think it will be easy, we even think the opposite. I know this competition well, I know what can happen in football”, continued the “Mister”, once winner of the Champions League as a player and four times as a coach, with Milan (2003, 2007) and Real (2014, 2022). Last season, at the same stage of the competition, Real had already met Chelsea and won (3-1) in the first leg at Stamford Bridge, but had to go to extra time at home to qualify (3-2 defeat). “Last year, we thought the return would be the most difficult match, assured Ancelotti, and yet we had the advantage. Then what happened happened. Our goal is to have less to fight for tomorrow.”
