Carlo Ancelotti: Six titles are at stake, and we want to fight for all of them
"There are six titles at stake, and we want to fight for all of them," the Real Madrid coach tells UEFA.com – starting with the UEFA Super Cup on Wednesday 10 August.
"We have a few more disadvantages than Eintracht, who start their season earlier, but we'll play to win. We look forward and not back. Last year's victories reinforce what we believe, but we need to focus on the upcoming matches. During this coming season, there are six titles at stake, and we want to fight for all of them.
Last year, Eintracht achieved something special because they weren't among the favourites. They played great games, winning against Barcelona at Camp Nou by playing a counterattacking style of football, with huge attention to defence and high-speed transitions.
We're ready. The team is looking in great shape already. The joy and satisfaction you get after such wins [in the Champions League final] tends to stick around, making you feel like no one should ever take your place. And that's a pretty strong motivation to keep winning".
