Madrid aren't even really playing good catenaccio if they keep playing like the first half Bayern are bound to score.

If you plan to play CL level catenaccio football you need to make your chances and make atleast one of the oppositions wingers struggle or atleast give him a hard time.

I hated on Ancelotti but damn he's a great coach.
:wtf:

Up against the weakest Barcelona team in years and yet is THIRD in La Liga.

Madrid had 19% possession the first half at home today. Mourinho would have been slaughtered for that even if his team were winning 1-0. When Ancelotti's Madrid plays the defensive/counter-attacking football you don't hear a peep :mjlol:

He hasn't improved Madrid from what they were last season and they aren't a patch on the 11-12 Madrid.

And don't give me no Copa del Rey nonsense because Mourinho was ridiculed for only winning that in his first year.

Beating a Bayern team ruined by Pep would be just another instance of this fraud getting lucky.
