Carlo Ancelotti: “Bayern Munich showed their best version, we don’t think we did”

Aware of how difficult it is to get a positive result at the Allianz Arena, Ancelotti says 2-2 “is a good result” but believes Real did not show their best in Germany and hopes this will change at the return from the “Santiago Bernabeu”.

“They gave us two goals early in the second half. They showed the best version of themselves and I don’t think we did, but we have time to show it next Wednesday. I think it’s a good result, but the chances of qualifying are still equal. Bayern have a lot of quality.

In the first half we defended but with little intensity, in the second half when they took the lead we started to press a bit more, the feeling was that we were comfortable but we lacked intensity. We finished the game quite well, in a draw, we had to suffer for 90 minutes in an atmosphere that everyone knows.

We controlled the ball at times, we had possession. They didn’t put too much pressure, there was space. They held the line quite high and we took advantage with a fantastic pass from Kroos and a fantastic move from Vinicius.

Through the changes I was looking for a little more energy, Kroos had a very good game and Bellingham had cramps, but I put in fresh legs and something had to change, I have tools on the bench and I have to take advantage of them.

We are well positioned in La Liga and in the Champions League, we have to try to get to London (at Wembley, in the final – no).

I think Vinicius can play there (centre forward – no) because he has learned to move without the ball and penetrate. Obviously, you have to have a midfielder to bring you the ball, like Kroos” – Carlo Ancelottiquoted by Marca.
