Carlo Ancelotti: It’s a deserved La Liga title for Real Madrid

Carlo Ancelotti says Real Madrid’s 36th La Liga title triumph with four games to spare was well deserved.

Although Madrid defeated Cádiz 3-0 on Saturday, Barcelona had to lose to Girona for the Los Blancos to be confirmed the 2023/24 La Liga champions in a campaign they’ve lost just once after 34 games played.

Currently on a 28-game unbeaten run, Ancelotti said managing the squad is relatively simple because there is a lot of commitment and few egos in the dressing room.

Speaking to RealMadrid TV after the historic 36th league win, the Italian said, “We’re very happy and very content. It’s a deserved LaLiga in every way and we’ve had fantastic support from the fans.

“We would like to celebrate with all the fans, but they understand because on Wednesday wehave a very important challenge. We want to prepare well to make the fans happy and we will celebrate the title together on Saturday.

The trophy takes Don Carlo’s title tally for Madrid to 12 as he draws closer to the legendary Miguel Muñoz.

The ex-AC Milan gaffer could make it a 13th trophy if he wins the UEFA Champions League— first by defeating Bayern Munich at the Santiago Bernabéu on Wednesday— following their 2-2 draw in the semi-final clash at the Allianz Arena last week.

“Now it’s important to have a restrained celebration because Wednesday’s objective is very important,” he said.
