Pep Guardiola and Carlo Ancelotti have been devoting total respect since the start of their respective careers. But that does not prevent these two legendary technicians from lending themselves to a small game of dupes, before yet another confrontation which promises to be spectacular this Wednesday (9 p.m.).
While Real Madrid has taken a big step towards qualification for the round of 16 of the
Champions League By winning at Etihad Stadium against Manchester City (3-2), Pep Guardiola voluntarily placed in a victim posture. A speech that made Carlo Ancelotti smile.
Ancelotti responds to Guardiola
“The luck for us to win the Bernabéu, and everyone knows it, would be … I don't know if it reaches 1% or how much, but it's minimal”dropped the Catalan technician after the victory of his men against Newcastle last weekend (4-0).
Ancelotti's response rushed. “In truth,
(PEP) Guardiola does not think he has only 1 % chance (to qualify). Tomorrow (Wednesday)before the match, I will ask him, “Do you really think you only have 1 % chance?” He thinks he has more, as it should be. And we don't think we have 99 % chance. We think we have a small advantage. And we have to take advantage of it by playing the same match as (3-2 victory)where everything went well. »»
