Ancelotti Supports Xabi Alonso

Former Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti has commented on the criticism faced by current Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso. "At Real Madrid, even a draw is perceived as a sign of crisis.

However, Real Madrid's current results are outstanding. What more can you ask for?" Ancelotti said in an interview with *AS*.

Before the international break for national teams, Real Madrid played a 0-0 draw in the derby against Rayo Vallecano. At the moment, Real Madrid is at the top of the Spanish La Liga standings.

Xabi Alonso's team leads second-placed Barcelona by three points. It is worth noting that Carlo Ancelotti is currently managing the Brazil national team.
