Carlo Ancelotti got emotional after the final whistle of Real Madrid vs. Manchester City and struggled to fight back the tears while hugging his son and assistant Davide.

The Italian tactician has become the first coach to reach the Champions League Final five times and has a chance to become the first ever manager to lift the trophy four times.

Last night’s 3-1 win against Manchester City was probably the craziest game of the year, with Madrid scoring twice in the stoppages to send the game to extra time, where Karim Benzema scored the winner from the spot.

After the final whistle, Ancelotti struggled to fight back the tears while embracing his son and assistant Davide. Madrid have already won the La Liga title and will face Liverpool in the Champions League Final in Paris on May 28.

  2. Adel, he is not the only Italian that fits those virtues so do Pozzo, Bearzot, Lippi, Conte and Mancini and many more will follow.

  3. @ Tonino, I can still resonate with Lippi,I remember world cup triumph in 2006 Berlin. I have heard of pozzo and bearzot But I disagree with Conte totally.. he doesn’t fit at all even though I’m one of his fan.
