Carlo Ancelotti spoke to the media ahead of Real Madrid’s Champions League clash with RB Salzburg.

Carlo Ancelotti opened up on the new Champions League format ahead of Real Madrid’s clash with RB Salzburg.

The Real Madrid boss doesn’t like the new format and says he doesn’t like the idea of playing two extra games.

He said: “It’s still difficult to say. At the moment, playing two more games makes me a bit more negative.

“It’s something new and when something new happens you have to analyse it. We’ll be able to do that better after the next two games.”
