Historic, Carlo Ancelotti's top record in the UEFA Champions League

Carlo Ancelotti continues to make history in the European Cup (1955-2023). Real Madrid, from Spain, beat Braga, from Portugal, 2 to 1, as a visitor, at the Estádio Municipal de Braga and reached the top of Group C alone, with an ideal score. Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham scored the winner's goals, while Álvaro Djaló scored for the local team.

The Italian coach achieved his 115th victory (43 draws 42 losses 362 goals for and 183 against) in 200 games in the most important club tournament on the Old Continent. His 115th celebrations were achieved with eight different clubs: Milan (42), Real Madrid (39), Chelsea (10), Bayern Munich (7), PSG (6), Napoli (5), Parma (4) and Juventus (2).

I have it clear after this game. We are clear about what we should do. We have time to prepare it. Alaba returns from an injury, Mendy could be a risk... I really liked Camavinga as a pivot, he had a great game. “We arrive with all the enthusiasm in the world for an important match”.

Ferguson's historical record that Ancelotti surpassed in the UCL

The Italian coach equaled the Scottish Alex Ferguson who achieved that number of victories (200) in 214 games. And, when considering only matches in the Champions League (since 1992), Ancelotti had already surpassed the Scot in November 2022.
