Both are undoubtedly one of the best coaches in the world. Ancelotti produced a tremendous result. He led Real Madrid to the European Champions League title last season, lifting the big year five times. Only Real Madrid, AC Milan and Liverpool have collected more European Champions League trophies than Ancelotti. No coach has come close to him. On top of that, Ancelotti is the only coach in history to lift the trophy in all five of Europe's big leagues. Ancelotti boasts the best man-management skills in history.
Guardiola is a revolutionary. Guardiola, who opened a new horizon with Tiki-Taka football, which maximized his share in Barcelona, conquered Germany and England one after another with well-organized offensive football. In particular, he won the European Champions League at Manchester City, making it clear that he is the best coach in the 2010 and 2020s. There is now a considerable difference in phase with Jose Mourinho and Jurgen Klopp, who are called rivals. Of course, the number of trophies is amazing. Guardiola lifted the trophy every 24 games. Guardiola is the one who changed modern football.
I asked Luis de la Fuenta from Spain's national team 'Which of the two is better?' On the 8th (Korea Standard Time), Tribuna revealed the answer, surprisingly, De La Fuenta's answer was Ancelotti. Tribuna 'It's surprising that he didn't pick his native Guardiola given that De La Fuenta is from Spain' responded.
Meanwhile, Spain is now in the semi-finals of Euro 2024. De La Fuenta added dynamism and speed to Spain, which is familiar with Tiki-taka, and changed it to a new fleet. It is one of the most impressive teams in this boring tournament. Spain will play France in the semifinals.
