Carlo Ancelotti Games Quotations

He has a lot of experience in games like these. He's always able to find the needed motivation, from the first to the last minute.

I think Milan and Barcelona are two great teams, maybe the best expressions of soccer right now in Europe. I think you'll see two great games of spectacle and skill.

It is good news that after two games we are still in charge of the group, but nothing has yet been decided and all four teams are still in with a chance of qualifying.

Over the span of two games I don't think Milan was inferior to Barcelona. I'm disappointed, obviously, but I don't have any reason to be upset with my players.

We have to look to play well and get forward. Looking back at the previous home games in Europe this season we have always scored a lot of goals. It's a game where we can't make calculations but our fans will be a help in a match like this.

We are confident - we know how to prepare and interpret games like this. For many of them (Barcelona) this is a new experience but I don't think that will influence the outcome.

This is our third Champions League semi-final in four years. We are used to these type of games while Barcelona are not.
