Ancelotti Reaches the Peak of Madridismo

The Italian manager becomes the most decorated coach in Real Madrid’s history after winning his fifteenth title in Doha, surpassing the record of legendary Miguel Muñoz.

Greatness always finds its moment. In a season of ups and downs, where Real Madrid has shown uncharacteristic inconsistency with five defeats and three draws, Carlo Ancelotti has found in Doha the perfect stage to carve his name in golden letters in the history of the world’s most successful club.

The Italian, who had already matched the records of mythical Miguel Muñoz, has needed just two spells and 316 matches to surpass a mark that seemed unreachable. A legacy built with 224 victories that gains even more value when compared to the 605 matches that Muñoz needed to establish his record between 1960 and 1974.

‘Carletto’s’ trophy haul dazzles in both variety and magnitude: three Champions League titles that confirm his mastery in Madrid’s favorite competition, three European Super Cups that certify continental hegemony, two La Liga titles that speak of consistency, two Copa del Rey trophies that end historic droughts, two Club World Cups and one Intercontinental Cup that crown global dominance. All of this, moreover, with the promise of more glory to come, as the season still offers five more titles to fight for.

History has a new benchmark on the Bernabéu bench. And knowing Ancelotti, this is just another chapter in his endless book of records.
