Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti expressed confidence in the match against Manchester City (hereinafter referred to as Manchester City).

Spain’s giant Real Madrid will face Manchester City, the “defending champion,” as a result of the 2023-2024 UEFA Champions League quarter-final draw in Nyon, Switzerland, on the 15th.

Manchester City made the history of treble last season by winning the English Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League titles. Manchester City has maintained a strong performance this season as well. Currently, the city is ranking third, one point behind the leader in the Premier League, aiming to come from behind to win the title. It also survived the FA Cup. It is cruising well in the Champions League. It passed the group league with a win-win, and easily beat Copenhagen in the round of 16 to reach the quarterfinals.

Even if it is Real Madrid, dealing with Manchester City is burdensome. However, Ancelotti is not hiding his confidence.

“I think it’s very positive,” Ancelotti said after the match was confirmed. “We’re in a better situation right now than ever. We’re in the lead. Thibaut Courtsia and Militang are coming back ahead of the quarterfinals of the Champions League,” showing confidence in the match against Manchester City.

As Ancelotti said, Real Madrid is not easy this season. It is cruising to victory in Spain’s La Liga with 28 matches completed. With 69 points, the team is seven points ahead of runner-up Girona (62 points). As it has relatively more leeway, it is an environment in which it can focus on the Champions League.

There is no reason for Real Madrid to lag behind. Young and competent players such as Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Junior, Aurelien Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga are also in the lineup. In addition, starting goalkeeper Courtois and defender Militão are set to return. There is no reason for Ancelotti to be afraid.

The first round match of the two teams’ quarterfinal match will take place in Madrid, Spain, on Wednesday, Korean time. The second round match will take place at Etihad Stadium in Manchester on Wednesday. 메이저 토토사이트
