One of the reasons Ancelotti left Real Madrid in 2015 was because he hadn't won a trophy, but he's off to a good start this season, as he assisted Real Madrid in winning a trophy following a trophyless 2020/2021 season under Zinedine Zidane.
Even if key players like Sergio Ramos and Rafa Varane departed the club last summer, Carlo Ancelotti's appointment is paying off. Carletto brought several changes to the club, including a fantastic defensive line in a short period of time, Vinicius Junior's rebirth, and now a trophy.
The Spanish Super Cup was held in Saudi Arabia, where Real Madrid defeated Barcelona in the first semi-final, while Athletic Club defeated Atlético Madrid. The two winners then faced off in the final, with Los Blancos emerging victorious.
The first half concluded with a 1-0 score thanks to a fantastic strike from Modric, while the second half ended with a 2-0 score because to Benzema's penalty. Athletic had a penalty chance to equalize, but Tibo saved it with his leg.
This is Carletto's first trophy in his second term at Real Madrid, but his fifth overall. He won the Copa del Rey, the UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup, and the FIFA Club World Cup during his first term with Real Madrid.
This is his first Spanish Super Cup victory, and Real Madrid has defeated Athletic Club three times this season. Best wishes to him and Real Madrid!
