Real Madrid made it two wins in two matches, as the Los Blancos defeated Almeria 3-1 away from home.
Real came from behind to win the tie, with Jude Bellingham scoring a brace.
Speaking after the game, Ancelotti praised the personality of Bellingham, who has started his Real Madrid career with a bang.
“Bellingham has settled in so well thanks to his maturity and his personality, as well as the fact he’s been in Germany for the last three years.
“These are elements that have really helped him adapt well to LaLiga and to our style. He’s in great shape.”
While assessing the game in general, Ancelotti said: “They caught us out with their first counter-attack, it was pretty much perfect.
“We could have dealt with it better but sometimes you have to give credit to their quality up top, it was a fantastic move and they got the goal.
“We didn’t lose control and gradually worked our way into the game. We had a lot of chances and moved around really well, there are not fixed positions. That helps to make life tough for the opposition defensively. We have great variety and that helps us create chances.”
