Carlo Ancelotti in mischievous mood after Celtic rout as Real Madrid boss bigs himself up

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Carlo Ancelotti was in jovial mood after Real Madrid put Celtic to the sword at the Bernabeu. The reigning kings of Europe put on a five-star show in their final Champions League group stage fixture as Luka Modric, Rodrygo, Marco Asensio, Vinicius Jr all got on the scoresheet.

Los Blancos needed a win to be sure of progressing to the knockout stage as group winners and they made light work of Ange Postecoglou 's men on Wednesday night.

Ancelotti was impressed by his side's performance, especially in the wake of losing away to RB Leipzig in their penultimate match.

Two penalties set Real on their way and although the Italian boss admitted this was "unusual", he certainly wasn't complaining as it set the tone for a comfortable night on home turf.
