Liverpool are difficult to go up against, Ancelotti on UEFA Champions League final

CAIRO- 27 May 2022: Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid manager, believes that Los Blancos have to fight on Saturday night in the UEFA Champions League final against Liverpool as they will face a very tough opponent. 

"Liverpool have a lot of quality together, with high intensity and good organisation. They’re one of the best teams." Ancelotti said. 

Ancelotti has a golden chance on Saturday to be the first manager in the competition's history to win the prestigious title four times. 

However, Ancelotti knows that his team will not have an easy mission against Jurgen Klopp's side, who won the two domestic cups in England and lost the league title with only one point behind the champions, Manchester City. 

He added "They have a great squad, they’re difficult to go up against. They play at a very high level, with great physicality, but it’s a pleasure to play against them in the final." 

The Italian manager celebrated the title in 2007 when he was leading AC Milan after defeating Liverpool in Athens but he will never forget what happened two years earlier in Istanbul when the English giants fought back from a 3-0 down at halftime against Ancelotti's AC Milan before going on to win on penalties
