Sixth Champions League in his career, fifth as a coach. These are the incredible numbers of Carlo Ancelottialready the competition’s record holder and who from this evening, thanks to his team’s 2-0 win in the final real Madrid at Borussia Dortmund at Wembley, further consolidates his lead.
Not King Charles’s only record, though: as evidenced by Opt, Ancelotti becomes the third coach in football history to win the competition three times with the same club. His only predecessors were Bob Paisley at the helm of Liverpool and Zinedine Zidane on the bench of Real Madrid himself.
5 – Carlo Ancelotti has won five #ChampionsLeague as a coach, at least two more than any other; no one has won the trophy more times than him with a single team: three with Real Madrid, like Bob Paisley with Liverpool and Zinédine Zidane with Real. Legendary.#UCLfinal pic.twitter.com/kAMCx40cfB
