In response to these statements by the Argentine player, Carlos Ancelotti gave his opinion in a press conference prior to the match against Shakhtar. It should be recalled that it was precisely Real Madrid who eliminated PSG during the last edition of the Champions League.

What did Ancelotti have to say?

"It is clear that it has surprised what we are capable of doing. What is it to be better? Everyone has their own opinion. For me you are not the best if you only do one thing well. It's easier to say that the Champions League is won by the best," said the Real Madrid coach.
